Interview with contest winners: "I beat the others only by a small margin, so the competition became pretty intense towards the end"

Our new interview roundup features the winners of Future Trade, Rally Trade and Drag Trade. An engineer from Belarus, an electrical equipment operator from Ukraine and a businessman from Russia all participated already in Grand Capital contests a few times and now are ready to share their advice with the beginners.

Igor Dubodelov, Belarus, the winner of 53rd round of Future Trade , received $1000 no-deposit bonus. Igor has already won in Drag Trade.

"I'm an engineer and I think that anyone can become a trader. But in order to earn money, you have to learn and build your character. I've been participating in Grand Capital contests for over four years. Finally, I succeeded and took the first place in the futures contest. Sometimes I was in the top ten, even the second, but couldn't take the first place. It seems like the good fortune finally smiled upon me in the last month, since I have already won in Drag Trade. I won thanks to my persistence, lucky combination of circumstances, correct calculation and, of course, more or less decent preparation during all those years. I beat the others only by a small margin, so the competition became pretty intense towards the end. I wish everybody luck, don't give up hope!"

Dmytro Melnychenko, Ukraine, the winner of 197th round of Rally Trade , received $500 no-deposit bonus.

"I'm 33 and I work as an electrical equipment operator. As a freelance job, I make expert advisors and indicators. I first learned about Forex on some website. I got interested, started searching for more information and tried trading on cent accounts for a couple of years, but not very successfully. I don't use analytics and trade only based on my own understanding of the current market situation. I have tried many indicator-based trading strategies and came across Sniper strategy. I did some research and tried it out quite a few times. It was getting better every time. I placed my most successful trade a couple of years ago, when I opened a position with the maximum lot available on a cent account and closed it after two weeks. That trade brought me 800% deposit growth. I've been participating in Grand Capital contests for a long time. Since Rally Trade is a short contest, I used some of the most volatile instruments, GBP, USD/ZAR. I took the second and the third place several times, but finally, I managed to take the first. I hope to make it on a real account also. I want to say thank you to Grand Capital for an opportunity to try myself at real trading! My advice to beginners: don't open positions if you're not sure and don't panic if the price goes the wrong way. Every action you take on the market should be thought-out and not impulsive."

Vasily Braginets, Russia, the winner of 374th round of Drag Trade , received real $200.

"I'm 52, I'm a businessman. First I got into Forex in 2005. I received a financial education so I already knew a thing or two about it. I liked the possibility of making money using your head without any middlemen. First I took trading classes, then continued on my own. The biggest problem then was that the most brokers didn't move money to the market, but kept them circulating within the company instead. I mostly trade with one and four hour charts. I still have a lot of free time. That's why I want to try myself at binary options. I prefer trading with USD/ZAR pair. My strategy is the right choice of indicators, and the understanding of how the market moves comes with experience. A beginner should always follow the news and not try to earn everything in a day. The market won't go anywhere. I like Grand Capital and I have been following the company for quite some time. I'm glad that you constantly progress, search for something new and go with the trend. I've been participating in Grand Capital contests for a long time and on several occasions I took the second place. So, as they say, if at first you don’t succeed, try again."

Interview with contest winners: "I didn't give up, just kept going and soon became a winner"

We publish the interviews with our contest winners every once in a while to introduce the beginners to the rules and show that winning a contest is not a pie in the sky. You only need to arm yourself with patience, be persistent and keep learning. In our new interview roundup we give you the winners of Drag Trade, Rally Trade and Future Trade.

Oleg Bondar, Ukraine, the winner of 198th round of Rally Trade , received $500 no-deposit bonus.

UserPostedImage

"I'm 29. Right now Forex is no longer a hobby for me and recently became my main source of income. In mid-2012 I saw a Forex ad on the Internet, registered and got a no-deposit bonus. I played around with it for a week, but then I blew it. Afterwards I decided to start studying thoroughly the market and trading strategies. I was learning on my own. Looked through many books and trading approaches and found what suited me. I expect to trade successfully and attract investments in the future. In my opinion the most important qualities of a good trader are reserve and composure. Even with a correct analysis you can enter a trade in a wrong time and lose money. One of my most successful trades was in the last June when the GBP was falling. It brought me 15000 points of profit. I mostly trade with the major pairs, sometimes with gold or oil. My trading strategy is based on VSA and Price action methods. When I choose a broker I pay attention to their reputation: how many years the broker is on the market, how fast orders are executed and the funds can be withdrawn, how quickly technical support responds. I think Grand Capital hits all the boxes. Rally Trade contest is a great opportunity to gain starting capital for Forex trading. Several times I made it into top ten, but couldn't take the first place as the competitors were really good. But I didn't give up, just kept going and soon became a winner of the round. This round was difficult just like the others, but the trading conditions for my strategy were favorable, so I managed to win. My advice to beginners: find a suitable trading method, create your own strategy and don't let your emotions interfere."

Igor Migalatyev, Ukraine, the winner of 54th round of Future Trade , received $1000 no-deposit bonus.

"I turned 30 a month ago. I guess I gave myself a decent present when I won. I haven't tried trading on a real account yet and I still don't have a clear strategy. But I understand that the charts have a certain rhythm to them, so that's where I'm starting from. Also, the forecasts and analytics are a big help. The most important qualities in a broker are stability and reliability. Nobody likes losing the invested money. The victory in Future Trade is my biggest one so far. I chose this contest because it had the largest prize. Three top competitors in my round were very strong, so I had to literally snatch my victory in the last day. And I'm happy it worked out."

Iravan Bambang, Indonesia, the winner of 376th round of Drag Trade , received real $200.

"I work at a service company. My friends introduced me to Forex a couple of years ago and I've been trading properly for about a year. Forex is quite popular in Indonesia right now, beginners can attend educational seminars, we get a lot of such events. I like trading on Forex because of high volatility. Profit or loss — everything depends only on your decisions. When I was only starting trading the most difficult thing was to control my emotions. I think anyone can become a trader. The basics are simple — buy and sell, and the knowledge of technical and fundamental analyses will come. I remember the day when I stumbled upon my first margin call. I was overwhelmed and defeated. But this experience made me wiser and stronger. My favorite instrument for trading is gold. I chose Grand Capital as my broker because of fast order execution and low spreads. As for the contest, I entered it to learn what I was capable of. The first thing to learn about trading is the importance of controlling your emotions. The skills will come afterwards!"

Interview with contest winners: "I registered a Grand Capital account five years ago and started with contests right away"

In our new interview roundup we introduce the winner of Rally Trade who set a goal for himself a year and a half ago  to win this contest, and also two winners of Drag Trade who told us about the importance of controlling your emotions and mastering your skills at contests for traders.h

Yudhi Yudhisthira, Indonesia, the winner of 199th round of Rally Trade , received $500 no deposit bonus.

UserPostedImage

A year and a half ago Yudhi won Drag Trade contest and told us  that his new goal was to win Rally Trade. We congratulate Yudhi with his victory in 199th round.

"I've been trading on Forex for about eight years. I think that trading is a very promising occupation. It helps you make money and exercise your brain. I'm especially interested in technical analysis. Currently among my favorite indicators are ZigZag and Trend Focus, while my preferred pair for trading is GBP/USD. One must think fast and analyze data to become a good trader. I'm happy to have won in Rally Trade. I was patient and luck favored me. If you're just getting into trading, don't give up. I'll stay true to myself and repeat what I've said already: don't lose heart, there's always a way."

Sergei Akulov, Belarus, the winner of 378th round of Drag Trade , received real $200.

"I'm almost 60 and I studied physics. Almost all my life I worked with computing equipment. In 1978 I entered the Institute of Engineering Cybernetics of the Belarusian Academy of Sciences. After that I worked as a maintenance engineer at a factory, optimized mainframe-based computing systems. I started trading 10 years ago. I saw some consulting company's ad on the subway, got interested and came to their lecture. Then I realized that I'm interested in the trading process itself, which means you don't depend on anybody and it's possible to earn a decent income at the same time. When I was only starting, I only traded with "majors". Now I'm getting convinced that trading cross pairs brings more profit. When I choose a broker, like most traders I look at order execution, the absence of requotes, slippage and other technical problems. And, of course, withdrawal options and how fast can you withdraw your profit. Grand Capital never gave me a reason to doubt them. I created an account five or six years ago and started with contests right away. I won this round thanks to my experience and knowledge of CAD/USD trading peculiarities. I won by a small margin. My advice to beginners is to work out your own trading system, trust it and believe in yourself and you will win!"

Faouzi Ounis, Algiers, the winner of 379th round of Drag Trade , received real $200.

UserPostedImage

"I graduated from an agricultural university. Once I needed extra income for research and a friend told me about Forex. So I've been trying to master this trade since 2014. It seems like Forex isn't quite popular yet in Algiers, but it's a promising occupation. I learned trading by participating in demo contests. At first my growth was impeded by the absence of actual deposit. I had a hard time controlling my emotions back then and it didn't help either. I placed my most successful trade at the time of Brexit and earned +30% to my account. My favorite trading instruments are AUD/USD, EUR/USD and GBP/JPY. I chose Grand Capital as my broker for several reasons: fast order execution, low spreads, no-deposit bonuses and a decent online support. I like to try out different strategies in Drag Trade. During this round I made use of the USD's weakness and scholastic oscillator. If you're just starting to trade, don't forget about money management. Don't risk the whole amount of your funds at once and sharpen your skills."

This company offers well-developed products, has a clear strategy, affordable services, fast execution and low spreads. And behind all that is a dedicated team of people who believe in their product, want to do good and grow. In the last few years, Grand Capital significantly expanded their presence in the world. However many European countries, such as Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Belgium still remain blank spaces on the company's map. Traders from these countries also should have a fuller access to the services of Grand Capital.

Interview with contest winners: "My dream is to earn enough to buy BMW"

In our new interview roundup we present the winner of the anniversary 200th round of Rally Trade , the winner of 55th round of Future Trade  and the winner of 382nd round of Drag Trade .

In 2017 alone we interviewed 46 winners and noticed an interesting tendency. Usually the manner of speech of our winners corresponds to their manner of trading. For instance, a composed seaman Viltaly from Ukraine trades with discretion, an ambitious marketing specialist Amr from Egypt trades boldly and impulsively, while an enterprising duck farm owner from Bangladesh loves risk, but remembers about control. Learn from the experience of others and find your own way.

Vitaly Narkevich, Ukraine, the winner of 200th round of Rally Trade, received $500 no deposit bonus.

"I'm 33 and I'm a seaman. I started trading fairly recently and now I'm only getting acquainted with the sphere. I'm interested in more substantial investments, but first I have to get the hang of it and gain experience. My friend recommended me Grand Capital. Rally Trade contest was my first chance to earn actual money by trading. I chose the most volatile trading instrument, EUR/USD pair. I'm happy how it all turned out. However, to be honest, the victory came as a surprise to me."

Zakir Hossein, Bangladesh, the winner of 55th round of Future Trade, received $1000 no deposit bonus.

"I own a small business in Bangladesh, a duck farm. I started trading on financial markets because of a friend. He's an experienced trader and he taught me the basics. So in the past six months I trained on a demo account and moved on to a real one. I prefer short term trading, so it's 100 points of profit a day tops. But once I somehow managed to get +250 points. I trade with Awesome oscillator and my favorite futures is @CAD (editor's note: CAD/USD rate futures). Now I learn by trading. Life is always accompanied by risk. No risk, no victory. Trading is a risk I'm willing to take and a convenient way of earning money.

Once my friend told me that I could make a fortune on the financial market. It's a dream of any young man! So I started to read up on trading. My younger brother supported me, he lent me money and encouraged me whenever I failed, told me that failure is the first step towards success. Three years ago I was still young and inexperienced, so I used to lose a lot of money because of my mistakes. But I kept on learning and managed to reach success. To be completely honest, I'm in it for profit. My dream is to earn enough to buy BMW 740i. My most successful trade was with EUR/USD pair. I invested $100, opened a trade and received $250. And my most unsuccessful trade was based on a recommendation of an analyst, I opened a position for gold and lost $300. I use SAR and Moving Average indicators for trading. They are my invisible helpers for predicting the market movements. I wanted to test my skills in Drag Trade. It's interesting to compete with traders from around the world, and if I'm successful it can also bring profit. If you're only beginning your trading career, start with demo accounts and education. Meanwhile, I want to thank my brother Ahmed and Muhi, who always supported me in my hobby."

Denis Kulagin, the head of International Development department:

"I'm honored to open this expo's forum. This gesture from our Chinese colleagues is a sign of respect towards Grand Capital and emphasizes our long history of mutual trust. I think our Best ECN Broker award is well deserved, as in many aspects this service was being developed with consideration of wishes of our Chinese clients, who value fast transactions, high liquidity and other extended features of accounts. It's not our first expo in China and again we reminded of the importance of communicating with our partners. Together we outlined the principal directions for our development in China.

LAMM reward system becomes easier

Starting from October 1st Grand Capital changes the reward system for LAMM accounts . Previously LAMM managers were required to select a type of reward, by a trading period or by each trade. However, this system left investors with a lot of questions. In order to make trading more transparent for investors and more easy-to-grasp for both parties, we decided to abandon one type of reward and completely switch to the other, reward by a trading period, i.e. reward for total amount of trades of the investor for a certain period of time. For instance, if a manager selects a 24-hour period, they will once a day receive the commission for a client's trading on this day. Managers can choose the period length individually. The shortest period available is one day.

All managers who now use "commission for a trade" or "percentage for a trade" reward systems must contact our client support before the 1st of October and set the desired period length and reward percentage. Those who fail to do so before the October 1st will be automatically switched to 0% reward percentage.

Contact our support team by phone +7 (812) 389-66-79, by email info@grandcapital.net  or via online chat on our website.

Interview with contest winners: “Successful traders take risks”

The winners of our contests are quite sure that a successful trader spares no expense on education, is always ready to take calculated risks and listens to more experienced traders. Read the opinions of the three of our most recent contest winners. Who knows, maybe their stories will help you to get to the top. Read, learn and dare!

Natalya Filliova, Russia, the winner of 201th round of Rally Trade 

"I often participate in trading contests because I like the competitive spirit and the emotions associated with it. I tend to choose shorter contests. That's why after I won Drag Trade I decided to try Rally Trade and now I finally made it. I think I won thanks to a good AUDUSD movement, I managed to place the positions in time and it all worked out. The hallmark of a successful trader is a huge amount of time invested in education, That's why I advise the beginners to learn and make calculated decisions."

Tadeusz Kubala, Poland, the winner of 202th round of Rally Trade 

"I'm 61. Until recently I owned a business, but now I work at a factory. I started trading about 10 years ago. I always liked the field of finance. Forex is very popular in Poland. I think the reason is that the technology education here is on a high level. I mostly trade USD/JPY, USD/CAD and EUR/USD. When I trade I alternate between technical and fundamental analyses. For example, I won this round thanks to the latter: Canada's GDP went up 0.3% this June and I figured that Canadian dollar would grow stronger.

All in all, financial market trading is not a very difficult thing. The real art of trading is in controlling your emotions. At the same time I think that a successful trader doesn't shy away from risk and has a strong spirit. I chose Grand Capital because of low minimum deposit, low spread, the absence of requotes and the safety of funds. My advice for the beginners is to deal with stress, not to be afraid to change your strategy and set adequate stop losses."


Ebrahim Nejaddarzi, Iran, the winner of 385th round of Drag Trade 

"I'm 41 and I'm a teacher. I've been trading for 10 years. At first, I used to lose a lot, but now I focus on money-management and risk management. My most memorable trade was at the time of Brexit. Then I profited a lot from selling the GBP. I use a combination of moving average 55 and Ichimoku. I trade mostly USDJPY, GBPUSD and EURUSD. Demo contests help to understand the market better. I won this round thanks to fast decision-making. But the beginners should only make decisions based on thorough analysis of the situation and not on intuition, and learn from the others' experience."

Grand Capital launches the first blockchain-based secure Forex marketplace

UserPostedImage 

Grand Capital has been providing online trading services for over 10 years. During this time we became a prominent member of the global broker community. Participation in major industry events enabled us to compare our own experience with others. We analyzed the current situation on Forex and binary options markets and realized that the industry needs to change as there is still no means for traders to feel secure on the worldwide scale, when working with foreign brokers.

We teamed up with our tech partners from UpTrader and set out to solve this problem. Now we are ready to present Serenity Financial, the first blockchain-based secure Forex marketplace for traders and brokers. Serenity acts as an intermediary that controls both parties. The platform utilizes modern technology, including cryptocurrencies and blockchain, which ensures the integrity of all trades and withdrawal transactions.

Funding of the platform will be as transparent as its operation. We invite everyone interested in the project to participate in Serenity Financial ICO. Pre-ICO starts as soon as mid-November. Learn how the platform works and read about the ICO on Serenity Financial website .

Denis Kulagin, Serenity Financial CEO:

"Serenity is a unique project. It has all the potential to change Forex market and solve a lot of problems traders face. Serenity uses blockchain technology to record all trading and non-trading transactions. The platform stores funds and provides liquidity to brokers. It's Forex reinvented, a united, secure and honest Forex for everybody."

The project is already supported by a number of brokerages and fintech companies which are ready to act as both partners and participants of the project.

Dmitry Rannev, one of Forex pioneers and CEO of Rannforex:

“I've always stood for transparent Forex. The project aims to increase transparency on the market, hence I support it. The idea is quite interesting and I think that it has all chances to evolve into something great.”

Interview with contest winners: "Everything that happens here depends only on you"

Among the recent contest winners are a water supply company employee, yoga teacher and a future Master of Laws in Taxation. The common theme of this interview round-up is that experience helps. Learn not only from your own experience but also from the experience of others.

Oleg Zharskiy, Russia, the winner of 204th round of Rally Trade , received no-deposit bonus of $500. Oleg had already won Drag Trade contest before.

UserPostedImage

"I'm 54 and I'm a junior manager at the city water supply plant. My work schedule allows me to spend time on my hobby, which is Forex trading. Although in summer I'm usually distracted by other things, and the Internet access is awful at my dacha. I've been constantly participating in Grand Capital contests. I think that all these contests are great, each in its own way. I joined this round and started trading only three hours after the contest began, but I won nonetheless in the end. Although to a large extent I won thanks to the opponent's mistakes, who took the second place. Late in the contest he got nervous and started losing. Can anyone become a trader? I don't know. The important thing is to like it, if you're not interested, you're not going to get very far. Before I begin trading, I read analytic reviews for about an hour and choose a strategy. I pay attention to indicators in my trading terminal. I will continue to trade. After all, experience comes with time."

Marina Zorina, Russia, the winner of 57th round of Future Trade , received no-deposit bonus of $1000.

UserPostedImage

"I'm 38. I teach yoga and I like to travel in my spare time. How did I get into trading? I was looking online for a job or just a source of extra income. So I was introduced to the currency market. I've been trading for about 10 years. Last year I managed to triple my balance when the market was very volatile. It was a great achievement for me. At first, I had lots of difficulties, of course, both with learning how to use trading software and with understanding the points of entry and exit. In this contest, I used indicator-based strategy. When I trade on a real account, I usually base my strategy on the channels lines, intraday support and resistance levels. I like that Grand Capital offers various contests, both for demo and real accounts. Future Trade is a demo contest, meaning the money isn't real. It's important since not everyone has a couple hundred dollars to spare from a personal budget. Still, a market is a market and no one can provide you with guarantees. Everything that happens here depends only on you, and on your skill and experience. The contest is a great opportunity to earn a decent income without any investment."

Christoph Schneider, Austria, the winner of 389th round of Drag Trade , received real $200.

UserPostedImage

"I'm 26. I study economics at a university and now I'm working on my Master's thesis, it's about the influence of taxation on transportation prices. I started trading three years ago on the advice of my friend. It seems to me that in Austria and Germany people are less interested in investing in financial markets than in other countries. Everyone here is very cautious about it. Trading is a proper analysis of data. If you want to achieve something amazing, you have to follow the news and choose a correct strategy. I attended a couple of courses on finance as a part of my education, so I learned the basics there. But mainly I learned trading on my own. I started with combining short-term and long-term strategies. Surprisingly it brought results immediately. For a long time, I engaged in intraday trading and traded binary options and DAX CFD (Germany's major stock index). Recently I got interested in precious metals, coal and Russian stock index. It's because I think that there will be a correction soon on American and European stock markets. When I choose a broker I pay attention to the range of offered trading instruments. And, of course, the possibility of trading small amounts with a low spread, since my funds are not so big yet. With Grand Capital, I trade Russian stock CFDs and metals that aren't offered by other brokers. The most important for beginners is a good risk management. Place stop orders and make sure that your account balance stays liquid, it helps you react to unforeseen circumstances."

Interview with contest winners: “I’m always on the market”

Meet two winners of Rally Trade  and one winner of Micro Trade  in our new interview round-up.

We think it’s very reasonable to learn from others’ experience, that’s why we try to make our interviews more useful for beginners. The winners talk about their winning strategies and provide advice on risk management.

Maksim Meshkov, the winner of the 205th round of Rally Trade, received no-deposit bonus of $500

“I’m a veterinarian. First I got introduced to the market in 2014. I started with binary options, they were aggressively marketed at the time. About a year later I started wondering about Forex. At first, I was learning the basics on my own. However, I quickly realized that those massive amounts of information were really confusing. So I enrolled in a course and everything was broken down for me and I started to understand what trading is. My trading day starts before the European session. One of my rituals is getting all unnecessary things off the desk and getting my monitors ready. My most successful trade involved GBP at the time of Brexit. I was bold enough to hold the position and took 1100 points. But greed and emotions got the best of me on the same day and I lost half of my profit. Mostly I trade with GBP/USD and GBP/JPY. The second pair is very volatile and can get you 400-700 points in a day. Sure, you can easily lose just as much. My favorite strategy is Price Action. When I choose a broker, I pay attention first of all to how long they’ve been working on the market. Grand Capital is one of the long-living companies. Among other advantages are excellent order execution, low spreads and fast withdrawal. The only thing I’d add is one more contest, specifically for binary options.”

Maksim Abramov, Russia, the winner of the 81st round of Micro Trade, received 300% of the difference in account equity

“Now I work as a tire fitter and I’ve been trading for about 10 years in total. During this time I had my ups and downs. I have a mathematical mindset, that’s why I find use for my skills in trading. I think that the most important thing for a trader is the ability to control emotions. Many give up after big defeats. I’m not one of them and I always go all the way. Actually, I’m always on the market. At any given time I have some open trades. During my years of trading I have tried many strategies, but I stuck with the levels. Now I trade with breakouts of daily maximums and minimums, and my favorite instruments are the dollar, the pound, the yen and gold. When choosing a broker I look at the reviews and trading conditions. I abandoned my previous broker because they implemented a limit on the amount of simultaneously open trades. I don’t like to be constrained. I’ve been participating in Micro Trade for a long time, but I never won anything. Probably my trading was a bit raw. Now everything is fine in that department.”

Amadeu Costa, Portugal, the winner of the 206th round of Rally Trade, received no-deposit bonus of $500

“I’m 50 and I’m a programmer. I started trading a year ago. I like analyzing financial markets and following the economic statistics. I have a predisposition towards bearish trends, so it can be a bit of a problem on a bull market. I studied various strategies, but I’m not really well-versed in all that. I mainly rely on my intuition and macroindicators. However, the psychology of the market sometimes can be so irrational. Recently I placed a marvelous trade: I earned 1000 Euro with the deposit of 10 Euro. But in the next trade I lost all my profit. I’m a short-term trader, sometimes I win and sometimes I lose. Among my favorite instruments are DAX index and EUR/USD, GBP/USD pairs. I’m only beginning my trading career and trying to earn enough money for deposit in contests. I liked Rally Trade for being a short contest and the results were available right away.”

Interview with contest winners. Mechatronics engineer from India talks about risk management and scalping

The winner of the 392nd round of Drag Trade  lives in India, works as a mechatronics engineer and has been trading on financial markets for about five years. Pongurlekar Sunand Sudhir told us how beginners should polish their skills, what strategies should be used with scalping and how to choose a broker.

Tell us a little bit about yourself, how old are you, where do you work?

I am a 27-year-old engineer with graduation in Bachelor of Engineering Mechatronics. My work is related to automation and robotics, I have to calibrate machines to work in the desired manner with the help of computer programming.

How did you start trading? How did it all begin?

I started with Forex trading during my final year of studying engineering so I have been around the world of Forex for about 4–5 years. I started Forex trading when I looked at the volatility in Forex market during major economic data releases. I found this volatility as an opportunity to place trades. Initially, I started with a demo account and have been participating in many contests including those conducted by Grand Capital for more than 3 years. It is only last year that I started trading on live accounts so I am still a novice when it comes to trading on real accounts.

How popular is trading in India?

Forex trading was somewhat less popular in my country when I began 5 years back. However, nowadays there is more awareness about Forex trading in India and many brokers are offering local bank deposit/withdrawal option at competitive exchange rates to Indian customers. Many international brokers have their partners and IBs in India and even some have opened up offices in India.

How did you learn to trade?

I learned to trade from reading technical analysis books, technical analysis research of analysts, watching Youtube videos and attending seminars organized by brokers.

As a novice trader, I experienced a lot of problems with risk management and placing stop losses to exit losing trades. As a result, I believe that the paramount factor in Forex trading is how to manage your losses.

What’s your trading style? What strategies do you use?

The volatility is my best friend. My trading style is scalping and news trading during important economic data releases. My prime trading strategy involves scalping and using technical tools such as moving averages, Bollinger bands, MACD and Fibonacci levels on short-term charts like 1m, 5m, 15m. I believe in cutting my losses as quickly as possible and never average the trades.

What are your favorite trading instruments?

I prefer to trade mainly major Forex pairs such as EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, USDCAD, AUDUSD and EURGBP. I believe they have the best liquidity and as a result the tightest spreads of all the asset classes which is important while scalping.

What do you look at when choosing a broker?

I mainly look out for tight spreads, faster execution of trades, no hassle in deposit/withdrawal of funds, security of funds and lastly, local bank deposit/withdrawal option for Indian customers. In fact, I opted Grand Capital for the local bank deposit/withdrawal option. Also, I admire the way Grand Capital organizes contests regularly.

What are your impressions of Grand Capital contests?

As I said earlier, I like demo contests and moreover, your Drag Trade contest is a high reward contest as the winner stands a chance to win a prize in a duration of only 1 hour. Drag Trade contest offers high initial capital of USD 100 000 so even if you make few losses then also you can recover and come back.

What piece of advice can you provide for beginners?

Lastly, I am myself a novice trader but if there was one piece of advice I would give to rookie traders than it would be "Do not worry about your profits but restrict your losses to a minimum and the profits will follow".

I would like to conclude by saying only this quote "The world of Forex is very fickle so our job is not to reason why, but our job is to only sell and buy".

Interview with contest winners: the best way to prove that you’re among the most successful 5% is to win a contest

In our new interview round-up read about the winners of Drag Trade , Future Trade  and Rally Trade . This time the winners are quite an international bunch: we have traders from Tunisia, Indonesia and Ukraine. However, all of them spoke about the competitive spirit and reminded us that knowledge is power.

Albouchi Ahmed, Tunisia, the winner of 393rd round of Drag Trade, received real $200.

UserPostedImage

“I’ve been trading for about three years. I’d been meaning to find a means of extra income for a long time and at some point, I realized that Forex trading is the best shot for me. At first, I didn’t really understand how things worked there. But gradually I figured it all out. My most successful trades involved GBP/USD and EUR/USD pairs. As for the strategies, I usually use support and resistance levels and scalping. Grand Capital offers fast order execution and favorable spreads. I entered the contest to prove myself and challenge other traders. My advice to beginners is to be patient when placing trades. Impatience often leads to losses.”

Saputro Sumaryo Adi, Indonesia, the winner of 58th round of Future Trade, received a no-deposit bonus of $1000.

UserPostedImage

“I am a businessman, my job is to distribute the goods of basic necessity. Financial markets are quite popular in Indonesia, but at the same time, they seem quite frightening to many. This is mainly due to the lack of experience among the beginners, who are usually too ambitious and impatient. It’s no wonder they bear losses. Financial market trading is something unique that connects material and immaterial. Material is our capital immaterial is our psychological condition. The market changes very quickly so traders have to learn control. I rely on technical analysis in trading. Over the years I have tried various indicators and now I use Bollinger Bands, MA and MACD. I prefer volatile currency pairs, like GBP/USD or EUR/JPY. Future Tade contest attracted me with a really decent prize sum. I would give several pieces of advice to the beginners in trading. First, remember the risk. Even if the first results are great, it won’t always be this way. Second, don’t stop learning and practice the analysis of price movement. Knowledge is power. Third, think rationally. If your goal is to earn $100 a day, distribute this sum across several positions.”

Vitaliy Garbuz, Ukraine, the winner of 207th round of Rally Trade, received a no-deposit bonus of $500.

“I’m 37. I work in sales and have been into trading for about 10 years. The most common mistake of beginners is trying to enter all trades at once. Trading is a world with its own rules and laws. But everything here is about a person. You can see human emotions behind Japanese candlesticks and bars: greed, fear and other feelings. I base my trading strategy on the levels and news, but the most important thing is how a price is behaving near the levels. My favorite instruments are currency pairs with GBP. According to a common myth among traders, only 5% can succeed in the industry. The best way to prove that you’re among these 5% is to win a contest. This round has left me with the most vivid impressions. What’s it like to reach the first position with 20 minutes left, become the second again 5 minutes later and snatch the victory in the last several minutes? It was exciting.”

Interview with contest winners: "I started earning when I saw that trading is actual work"

In this interview round-up read about three Drag Trade  winners and one Rally Trade  winner.

Our winners came to financial markets by different ways. Boris Levinsky stumbled upon trading when looking for a way to earn on the web after he retired. On the other hand, Gunawan Lili deliberately studied hard to enter the world of trading. Now they all achieved great heights in trading and are ready to provide advice for beginners.

Anatoly Galbi, Russia, the winner of 395th round of Drag Trade

“My professional area is construction, but I’ve been trading for more than 5 years, I started because I wanted some financial independence. It was hard to learn the terminology. The problems started getting fewer with practice, although I tried to handle bigger volumes in the beginning and sometimes got margin calls. Now my favorite trades are with GBP/JPY because they are highly volatile. Scalping is one of my favorite strategies. I like trading because it’s mysterious, it’s like a puzzle that I want to solve. I’ve been participating in Grand Capital contests for quite a while, but it’s my first victory. Now I want to win Rally Trade. Beginners should learn and practice more. Grand Capital contests are quite useful for that.”

Boris Levinsky, Russia, the winner of 396th round of Drag Trade

“I’m already retired and this year I turned 60. I got into trading several years ago when I started looking for an extra income online. At first, I took trading as a game and faced difficulties. But then I saw that trading is an actual work. I always look for patterns, deeply analyze, I don’t rush into things head first. My most successful trade was the one that got me the victory in Drag Trade. The most important thing for traders is to believe in themselves. You have to develop your own trading strategies, constantly improve them and don’t listen to armchair advisers. You can listen to reasonable advice, but always make your own decisions.”

Svetlana Pletnyova, Russia, the winner of 208th round of Rally Trade

“I managed to win in Rally Trade because I closed my trades in time. I beat my opponents by a very small margin. I’d won in Drag Trade before. But Rally Trade has a bigger prize, so it’s pleasanter to win. I think that if trading is not working out very well since morning, don’t continue, today’s not going to bring anything. My favorite instruments are USD/ZAR and GBP/JPY for contests and GBP/USD for real trading. I want to thank Grand Capital for a chance to test myself in trading without making any deposits.”

Gunawan Lili, Indonesia, the winner of 397th round of Drag Trade

“I work in a local college: I’m in charge of the classes schedule and the archive. When I started trading on Forex I realized right away that it’s for me. My first encounter with financial markets was three years ago. My initial capital was small. A trader has to control their emotions and understand the tendencies of the market in order to succeed. As of today, I made my biggest profit at the time of Brexit. I’m not always able to make decisions momentarily and sometimes I miss the right moment. Fortunately, I never had any significant losses. A broker has to be reliable and guarantee security, it’s important for me. Grand Capital is on the market since 2006 and it tells a lot.”

“I’m a radio engineering technician, I'm 65 years old. My hobbies are theater, books, music. I also think of trading as a hobby, though I’ve been familiar with it for a long time, since 2010. I prefer trading with EUR/JPY. I don’t always stick to one particular strategy, I base my trading on day charts. The newcomers shouldn’t be afraid of losing and should carefully analyze the charts. In Micro Trade the trading is on real accounts, so there’s not as much competition as in other contests. One of the most memorable trades is the one that led to my victory. At first, I thought that another contestant would win, but eventually, he went below zero and I got ahead of everyone else.”

Sergei Novikov, Russia, the winner of the 59th round of Future Trade.

“I’m 36 and trading is still more of a hobby for me. I like that profits are not limited by anything there. I like the contests, like the way it’s organized. During this competition, I managed to close my most successful trade. I chose Grand Capital for reliability, the company’s contests don’t need any improvements, there are organized perfectly. My advice for the beginners? I have a lot to learn myself yet, so I don’t think it’s my place to give advice.”

Marina Arykova, Russia, the winner of the 209th round of Rally Trade.

“I’ve been interested in financial markets since I was 16. It was interesting to figure out what the currency rates depend on. Now I’m 29, I’m a real estate agent. Trading is not the main source of income for me. However, now I try to give more time to trading: the victory gave me confidence. I like trading with various currency pairs and stock. My most memorable trade was with Amazon shares. I started participating in trading contests about 5 years ago. It’s very convenient that Grand Capital contests are regular and come in different formats. Newcomers have the opportunity to learn without financial risks, while experienced traders can test themselves. I didn’t think I’d win in Rally Trade: I started the contest with losses, but I managed to win in the end. It’s a lesson for all traders: never give up and move forward!”

Andrei Smerdov, Russia, the winner of the 398th round of Drag Trade.

“I’m 46 and I work in forestry. Numismatics and biology are my hobbies. I’ve been interested in financial markets since 2008. Sure, I had my share of unsuccessful trades. But my most successful one allowed me to increase my deposit by four times. My favorite instruments are GBP/USD and gold. I always pay attention to what contests are offered by a broker. I’ve been participating in Drag Trade for about two years now. Several times I made it into the top-10, but never took the first place. In this round, I correctly predicted the decline of GBP/USD and won. It’s a pity that the winners can’t participate twice in Grand Capital contests. The contests provide great opportunity to master your strategy, get adrenaline and fight for the prize. The beginners should take part regularly.”

Interview with contest winners: “It all happened in the last few minutes”

Here are the interviews with two winners of Drag Trade  and one winner of Rally Trade . All winners admitted to winning the contests literally in the last few minutes by a small margin. Read the interviews and decide for yourself, whether it’s luck or skill.

If you want to compete with other traders for a prize, choose your contest  and sign-up for the next round.

Aleksandr Filimonov, the winner of 399th round of Drag Trade, received real $200

“I’m 58 and I’m an engineer. I like to build things, but trading is my main hobby for about 10 years. I learned about Forex from an ad. I had my difficulties, just like everyone else in the beginning. The difficulties of psychological nature: I wanted to get everything right away and I lost a lot of money because of that. I’m yet to achieve the art of calm and steady trading. I mostly trade with major currency pairs and gold. Recently I’ve been favoring GBP/USD. I use levels, Elliott Wave, Japanese candlesticks, Fibonacci retracement. I make decisions based on several indicators. I chose Grand Capital because of a solid reputation, a wide range of account types and instruments, easy deposit/withdrawal of funds. I like the fact that the company’s contests are regular and interesting. I beat my competitors at Drag Trade by less than 1%. The beginners should search for a strategy that suits their character, also don’t take big risks. Always have something to trade with for tomorrow.

Svetlana Pulatova, Azerbaijan, the winner of 210th round of Rally Trade, received $500 no-deposit bonus

“I used to teach English, now I’m 58. I learned trading on my own, after a recommendation from my friends. I mostly trade currencies, and I prefer Sniper strategy and scalping. I pay attention to spread and commission when choosing a broker. I like Grand Capital’s contests, they are a great opportunity to practice trading. I decided to participate in Rally Trade to win an initial capital. Although I won only by a small margin, I did it thanks to the correct choice of a currency pair and low volatility on the market. All beginners should try themselves in contests. If you can win, you’re ready to trade on real accounts.”

Yuri Ogoltsov, Russia, the winner of 401st round of Drag Trade, received real $200

“I’m 55. I dedicate all my free time to Forex trading. I learned about it accidentally four years ago. I learned from my own mistakes. A good trader must be disciplined and true to their dream. And of course, you should analyze your successes and failures. When you start trading, a desire for easy and fast income gets in the way. But with experience, you’re beginning to appreciate calm trading and start to get planned profit. I tried many different instruments and finally chose the most liquid ones: EUR/USD and GBP/USD. My strategy is the European session and intraday trading. I also use support and resistance levels. I love competition in general and often participate in contests. In this round, it all happened in the last few minutes. There’s a certain edge to Drag Trade, it’s a one-hour contest and since you risk more, you have to quickly make unorthodox decisions.”
