Barcelona, September 2nd , 2015 — FXStreet is back with a new edition of its popular Trader of Year Demo Contest, a competition sponsored by Hantec Markets.

The Trader of the Year contest starts on October 11th 2015 at 21:00 GMT, and ends on November, 13th 2015 at 22:00 GMT, when all positions are closed, and Profit and Loss (PnL) realised. Registration is already open and will close on October 18th at 23 GMT.

Contestants are free to use all features available on the Hantec MT4 trading platform (excluding Expert Advisors), as long as they are ethical. A live scoreboard of the top 10 traders will be displayed on both FXStreet.com and Hantecfx.com throughout the contest. The winner will be the contestant with the highest Account Equity.

“We are now ready to launch the Trader of the Year again, a competition whose first edition took place back in 2007! Throughout all these years we’ve seen great traders and strategies and look forward to this new edition,” said Carolina May, CEO of FXStreet. The idea behind this competition is to organize an event where traders can compete in a safe environment (demo accounts), win prizes that are useful to their trading and test out their systems and strategies. “For the trader, it’s an entertaining and learning experience at the same time” concluded Carolina May.
