Frequently Asked Questions

 
 

Have Other Questions?

1. Can one enter late? 

Yes, but contestants who enter late start as of the close on the day they enter. For that reason, if you decide to enter late, you will need to take a photo or print-screen of your account value as of the close on the day you enter and email it to normanz@earthlink.net. That will be your starting value for percentage increase computation purposes.

2. Is the competition open to non-US citizens? 

Yes, it is open to traders from all countries.


 

3. Can I add or remove money from the specified account?

Yes. Please see the “How to report” page for more information.

4. How will you promote me if I do well? 

The main reason for participating in these competitions is to create a documented track record which will help enormously in raising money yourself, working with a hedge fund, starting a newsletter, etc. We will make every effort to assist you in that regard. In addition to listing your performance on financial-competitions.com each month, we send out press releases quarterly. Those releases are carried by a large number of publications. We also contact individual reporters. As you can see by clicking on the “Press” link, this competition has received a great deal of coverage over the years. A number of our former competitors have made hundreds of millions, at least in part because of the press coverage they received.
