1st place – Mr. Alexey Melnikov from Kazakhstan

Thank you very much OctaFX, I'm very happy to win this contest. I tried my best, firstly, I was on the 3rd place, but then the other two participants were disqualified...so, never give up, I'm very happy now. I didn’t spend too much time to succeed in this competition, only the last day was rather involving. I haven’t decided yet about my participation in other OctaFX contests, probably, I will try. My recipe to success is be risky! I wasn't better than other traders, but I was risky, my last deal was perfect, big volume - big profit. Practically, these factors determined my victory! My main strategy was to predict reverses and follow a trend. To tell the truth, my biggest profit is winning in this competition, because I am only doing my first steps, I’m just learning. So, my win could become a great inspiration to newcomers!


2nd place – to Mr. Supriadi SH from Indonesia


I am very happy to stand second on the list of the OctaFX Champion demo contest. I have never thought that I would become a winner! Talking about my involvement in the contest I can’t say that I spent too much time - only a few minutes and not even every day. Moreover, I think that the time has come and I will definitely participate in the other contests and promotions of OctaFX. Frankly, the key to my success is very simple - observe market movements and when the current market situation is good, enter the market! I used no particular strategy, my advice is just to learn and learn to trade Forex on a regular basis. I want to repeat that I am satisfied enough to be the second in this race, which I have never imagined! What I like most is that I have never experienced substantial losses.I believe, it might require more than a year to become a good trader.


3rd place – to Mr. Alfi Hendri from Indonesia


I was very thrilled during this round of the contest and I would like to thank OctaFX for providing us with such a competition! I devoted only some time to the contest, actually, I traded when I was not busy. I am very excited about the OctaFX promotions and I will continue to participate in any of them. My successful trading is based on three elements: patience, discipline and time management. I developed and followed my own plan and used the existing techniques. Honestly speaking, I made quite a big profit, my loss is small compared to my gain. I believe that it takes about 5 years to become a good trader. To my mind, if you want to gain success, improve yourself every day!


We would like to thank the traders for sharing their success stories, as well as all traders who have participated in the competition. We hope that these stories got you inspired! Join our next round registration for the contest to become a champion and find your story in our news! Next round is yet to come and open for all participants!

How to win a round of OctaFX Champion Demo Contest: success stories
g0xVFI6.png

Round 45 of OctaFX Champion demo contest is over, and our participants are ready to share their trading experience and key to success. Here are the lucky traders who won prizes in Round 45:

1st place with the award of 500 USD goes to Mr. Md Toiab Ali from Bangladesh

2nd place with the award of 300 USD goes to Mr. Suparmin from Indonesia

3rd place with the award of 100 USD goes to Mr. Rahardyan Widodo from Indonesia

The last runner in the contest, Mr. Manat Phusrisalap from Thailand is granted 100 USD


Here’s what our winners have told us:

1st place – Mr. Md Toiab Ali from Bangladesh

I’m so happy to be the Champion this time! My friend told me there was an exciting opportunity to test my trading skills and introduced OctaFX broker to me. Right away, I thought that it was a great idea. Now, when I won the round of one of the demo contests, I would love to take part in the Supercharged real сontest. I think I can win there as well. I have a secret that I can share with all the traders who want to become successful: forget about greed, but be confident. My self-confidence was so strong that I traded better than the others and therefore I was able to grab the first prize. I can’t say that my gain was spectacular, but I didn’t encounter considerable losses either. That’s all because I wasn’t greedy.


2nd place – Mr. Suparmin from Indonesia

I’m really excited to be the champion: I’ve tried several times and finally I won! I’m rather involved in trading and I spend a lot of time on it. I need a few hours to focus and I wait patiently for the right moment to enter the trade. This contest was very useful for me and helped to improve my trading skills. The prize was also very attractive, so I plan to participate in a few more contests in the future. As for the success factors, my secret is patience. To win, you have to stay focused and observe the market movements, sticking to your strategy. The luck factor is also significant, but patience is the first key. I’m sure a lot of contestants are much better than me, but many traders are impatient and they use bigger lots, so it leads to failure. Apart from being able to wait and watch, I follow the market sentiment and trends. I read the news, the forums, Twitter, Facebook, etc. To open a trade, I use the indicators in Metatrader 4 such as EMA, stochastics or BB. My plan is not perfect, but it has always helped me to trade. And yes, I think that you have to practice trading for years to become a good trader. To be honest, I’ve never had any remarkable gains, but for me, the best profit is the consistent profit, so I can consider myself a successful trader.


3rd place – Mr. Rahardyan Widodo from Indonesia

I’m surely happy that I’m one of the winners. I’m a really active trader and I would be glad to participate in OctaFX contests later on - they help me educate myself and provide a few useful trading skills. I took part in this round of Champion contest because I was sure I’d be patient enough to win. I also think that one of the important success factors is being able to learn from the experts. In addition, my strategy includes waiting for the right moment and analysing the trends in a proper way. With the help of these ideas, I’ve never experienced any huge losses. I’ve been trading for some time now and I firmly believe that the right way to do things is to learn for as long as you can. A year or even more is a minimum amount of time to become a good trader.


The last runner–Mr. Manat Phusrisalap from Thailand

I would really like to improve my performance next time and defeat the other contestants. That’s my goal now, and I’m really sure I can do it. I’m even more motivated now than I was in the beginning of the contest. Trading takes a lot of my time, so why not? I use scalping as my most preferred trading tool so I think I’m going to use it next time to be the winner.

Register in the new round of OctaFX Champion to find your name in the news!
