FXOpen: “Could you please describe your “way in Forex” i.e. how you began, developed, made your first profitable trade, etc.?”

FXOpen: “How did you learn about the ForexCup forex-contests? Have you ever participated in contests organised by other brokers?”

Winner: “I have come across the mentioning of ForexCup in some online ads and immediately decided to try. Some time ago I tried forex-contests organized by other broker. That’s why I decided to join the Championship – I had enough confidence in myself.”

FXOpen: “What in your opinion, are the pros and cons of ForexCup competitions? What would you change in the project?”

Winner: “What I like about ForexCup most is that it provides a trader with everything that is needed i.e., it’s easy to register for a contest; all competitions are well organized while trading terms are favorable and attractive.

As for the weak points, I would mention a fixed leverage, the necessity to register at FXOpen forum and the restriction of “no more than 5 positions at a time” – that’s what I think worth changing.”

Winner: “I had a strong desire to participate in the contest – that’s how I decided to join the Championship.”

FXOpen: “How did you make your trading decisions? Were they informed, risk averse or did your actively pursue risk?”

FXOpen: “According to the contest statistics, you have made 25 trades, of which a large percentage belongs to JPY. Is it your favorite trading instrument? Why did you choose it? What other instruments do you prefer trading?”

Winner: “I have settled on JPY pairs as they are usually more volatile than others. As for my regular trading habits, I prefer gold.”

FXOpen: “All your trades were profitable. Did it take you long to work out a profitable strategy? If so, what is the essence of it?”

Winner: “My trading strategy is based on indicators, news trading and technical analysis. Actually, I am still working on its improvement.

FXOpen: “You were awarded with a PAMM ECN account with a healthy deposit – Are you satisfied with this method of reward or would you prefer prize money only?”

FXOpen: “What advice can you give to beginners and those who are planning to join ForexCup contests?”
