🏆 Free Futures Trading Tournament — Starts June 8th
Our partners at TradeMakers are running a free futures trading competition called the Futures Cup and it's worth checking out.
The format is simple. Everyone gets a $100K sim balance. You trade one contract per day for five days. Monday is NQ. Tuesday is ES. Wednesday is YM. Thursday is Gold. Friday is a free-for-all — trade whatever you want.
Max size is 2 minis or 20 micros per trade. No drawdown limits. You have to be flat by 4PM EST every day. No overnight holds, no hyper-scalping under 60 seconds.
The prizes are legit. First place each day wins a $200K evaluation futures account. The weekly grand champion gets a $150K instant funded account. Second place gets $100K funded. Third gets $50K funded. Even 4th through 10th get 50% off any TradeMakers account.
Free to enter. No fees. No resets. Just show up and trade.
If you've been working on your futures execution this is a no-risk way to test yourself against other traders in a competitive format.
Have any of you done a trading tournament before? Would love to hear how you approach it differently than a normal trading day.
