The Crazy Pips contest

Customers with a micro.mt4 account can participate. The minimum deposit to participate in "Crazy Pips" is $100 USD or 70€.

The Virtual Reality contest

"Virtual Reality" is a contest for demo accounts, but the money you can win is quite real!

During each round, $6,150 USD is allocated between the 10 best traders. Each year, a total of $36,000 USD is awarded to winning traders!

"Virtual Reality" is based on factors such as the percentage of profits, the Maximum Drawdown percentage, and overall profits, which all play an important role for experienced investors.

Each week, $1,600 USD is awarded, split up between the Top 10 traders!
