The SFX Trading Contest, which ran from November 4 to December 1, has officially come to an end, and what a journey it has been! Over the past four weeks, traders from around the globe showcased their skills, strategies, and bold moves, making this contest one for the record books.
Each week brought extraordinary results
From the very start, the competition proved that the SimpleFX platform is a haven for ambitious traders. The top performers raised the bar every week, with top weekly ROIs consistently exceeding 400%.
Last week’s results? A jaw-dropping 935% ROI, an all-time high for this contest! This unprecedented performance highlights the incredible potential of precise, well-timed trading on the SimpleFX platform.
Breaking records and pushing limits
Each week told its own story of success:
- High ROI: Week after week, winners pushed past the 400% ROI mark, proving that the right strategies can lead to extraordinary gains.
- Diverse Portfolios: From cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTCUSD), Cardano (ADAUSD), and Fetch.ai (FETUSD) to major indices such as the S&P 500 (US500) and Nasdaq (US100), as well as gold (XAUUSD) — the variety of strategies was staggering.
- Precision Pays Off: Some traders achieved massive returns with only a handful of trades, while others leveraged a more diversified approach to claim their spot on the leaderboard.
Grande finale: A competition sum-up
All 10 of the competition’s winners exceeded 3-digit monthly ROI. Just as a reminder, the average return on the S&P500 benchmark is 10%… per year.
