Hello, I'm entering contest a little late but could someone help me figure out how to even execute a trade through this account?? Do I login through mt4? or is there a way through myfxbook? Asked support at myfxbook but still no response. Not really a noob question, I just don't even know where to find my login number for the account if it is through MT4. Thanks

But the 2000% happens to be something apotheosic, do not you think?

No.

Some of the previous leaders were way over that already. Weinstein, for example, was up 7100+%
Soon we may see more of this......

Some of the top gainers are not using the lots under the contest rules, so they will be disqualified regardless.😀

I looked at the leaders' trading histories, But, I did not notice any kind of ' lots ' rules violations. What violations did you mean?

The only thing i saw there about Lot size was :

Minimum volume – 0.01 lot, maximum volume – 1000 lots, step size - 0.01 lot, maximum number of open positions/pending orders - 200

2000% to 7000% profits???...hmmm...so these guys/gals must be multi-billionaires and who would make poor old old Warren Buffet seems like a lame Trader😝

...and here I am chugging along in the contest, in my same old normal trading style & strategy, and achieving only just over 98% profits and is way, way at the back of the pack at number 198

I supposed Brokers prefer high risk 'Traders' over consistent Traders

as per the rules you are free to open between the minimum of 0.01 lot to the maximum of 1000 lot. of which the top contestants are in tandem with the rules.

If the rules were being broken by the top traders ( or any trader for that Matter), then the ADMIN would have long ago remove then from the contest. Also, why do some of you traders have such a problem when other traders make phenomenal PROFITS? Not all traders are happy with a ridiculous 5% profit per month. To each his own,for goodness sake!!!

well demo contests there is nothing to lose. So participants through risk out of the window. A live contest on the other hand is a different scenario. rarely do winners surpass 300%

You should feel pretty good about yourself with those type of gains because if that is your usual trading style and system then I assume you live trade? If so you have an awesome method for actually making money.. The guys who make 1000,s % profit in these competitions have methods that would only work in these kind of competitions because if they worked in live accounts why would they be here? :)
