What Traders Should Know Before Participating
This is a live account contest — not a demo competition. A minimum deposit of $100 is required to enter, which means real capital is involved from the start. Before participating, traders should consider the following:
- The contest requires opening a new VIP (ECN) account — existing accounts cannot be used, even if they are already VIP/ECN type.
- Winning is based on a lottery ticket system, not purely on trading performance. Even the best trader can lose if their tickets are not drawn.
- Trading volume must come from the contest period only — deposits or volume from before 1 July 2026 do not count.
- Exploitative or manipulative trading strategies, even via EAs, can result in disqualification at Saracen's sole discretion.
- Confirm this offer is still active with Saracen Markets support before depositing.
Risk note: This is a live trading contest involving real funds. Forex and CFD trading carries significant risk of capital loss. The $100 minimum deposit is at market risk — the contest prizes do not offset potential trading losses. Always trade within your risk tolerance.
T&Cs apply. Full contest rules are available on the official Saracen Markets website.
