1. This document sets out the Terms applicable to the Competition.

2. The Competition is available to entrants who: i) are not existing clients of ADS; and ii) apply for and successfully open a Demo Account during the Competition Dates.

3. In order to be eligible for a Prize, you must be over 18 years of age and complete the Demo Account application on the Website with your: i) full name; ii) current residential address; iii) valid phone number; and iv) valid e-mail address.

4. On the Competition End, ADS will:

i) capture your Demo Account’s equity value;

ii) determine three (3) winners of the Competition; and

iii) verify that such winners have provided accurate contact details in their Demo Account application.

5. The winners may be eligible for a Prize and will be determined based on the entrant with the highest total return (percentage gain), calculated using this formula:
(equity value – deposit applied by ADS) / starting equity value (“deposit”) X 100 = % Profit

Example: The deposit applied to the Demo Account is USD100,000 and the equity value at Competition End is USD112,200, the deposit will be deducted from the equity value and the profits made are USD12,200. The profits will be divided by the deposit and multiplied by 100 in order to obtain the profit percentage: USD12,200 / USD100,000 x 100 = 12.2% profit.

6. In the event that 2 entrants have the same percentage in profit ADS will look at the profit factor to identify the winner.

7. The winners’ names will be announced on the Website and notified by e-mail within ten (10) calendar days of the Competition End. In order to claim the Prize, the winners must apply for a Live Account using the same details as were used in the Demo Account application within ten (10) calendar days of the date of the e-mail notification.
