Discussion of the Forex Contest GDMFX Forex Contest

Hi,
I trade manually and would like to copy trades to the contest with a trade copier. Will it be possible? The trade copier is an EA but it does not throw orders on its own, it just mirrors my manual trading. Thanks.

Question at GDMFX support.

That is the smallest volume with which you can increase or decrease your trade's volume. For example, you can trade with 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, etc., up to 1000 lots per trade.


But i have to start with 0.01 lot frist ,,,,, next trade 0.02 , next trade 0.03 next trade 0.04 ...........to the volume i want? = Grow volume

Or can i start directly with 0.50 lot / each trade? = fix volume

Grow volume vs. Fix volume.

You want that we grow the volume and start with the frist trade 0.01 lot right?

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please note that you can start and continue trading with any size you want. We have just mentioned the minimal trade size which is 0,01 lot and that you can increase it by 0,01 , but we do not advise what size to trade. You can directly start with 0,5 lot or even 1 -2 lots.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please note that such an EA will not be allowed to be used as well.

Hi GDMFX Support Team,
I've registered the contest and I do received the email with the login ID and password,
I also manage to login to the account in MT4,
but how come I can't see my name in the Registered Competitor's list?
and I can see my account status is 'pending' in my portfolio - connection.

Can you help to advise?
thanks

Hi, where I can have a look to the competitors list?

I have registered in the contest and install metatrader and login with received credentials but do not see the amount to trade with.

I have the same problem, do i download something? wait? surely i need to connect some sort of trading account thats based at the website.

I could be missing something, when i joined the comp i was not asked to do/add/open anything.

if i go open an account at the broker what type is needed and what user/password do ii use?

Hi GDMFX Support Team,

Can we place our order with the MT4 in our laptop and also our smart phone?

Do we only get the 10,000 credits once the contest starts? Because my account is still at 0. Is there anything we need to do? Thanks!

Nope, but I'm in Vancouver! Any other traders from Canada? :)

I am getting nowhere fast on a bad install.

I have my username and my password
I have my Mt4 set up
I am in the comp i can, see my name

The trading comp account is NOT in my portfolio.
If you hover over the 'portfolio' tab on your account you will see a tab for the COMP thats whats missing/not on my account

So i need to manually set up a new account, add it and then hopefully link to MT4 (i downloaded when entering the comp) with the username and the password I was given when I entered the comp.

Can anyone on this thread tell me what type of account you are given when you enter the comp so i can set up the same type
?
