Release time:2026-03-23 Publisher:GINZO
  1. Must be a valid GINZO trading account. Participants who are not GINZO clients shall register an account first before signing up for the competition.
  2. The nickname for competition registration may only consist of letters and numbers; special characters are not allowed.
  3. Prizes will be evaluated based on valid trading volume and valid trading duration.
 
Explanation of Valid Trading Volume:
 
Valid trading volume is defined as meeting the minimum requirement: 1 lot of XAUUSD trading.
 
Explanation of Valid Trading Duration:
 
Valid trading duration requires positions to be held for at least 10 trading days, or to have trading activity on at least 10 trading days during the competition period. A valid trading duration of 10 trading days is the minimum requirement.
 
  1. Successful registration for the competition will entitle participants to a $500 bonus. Rankings in the trading competition will be determined by account equity (participants must meet the minimum requirements for valid trading volume and valid trading duration).
     
  2. Successful participation in the trading competition includes a $500 bonus. Rankings will be determined by account equity after the competition ends (15 trading days).
     
    • 1 Champion: $30,000 prize
    • 2 Runners-Up: $10,000 prize each
    • 3 Third Place: $3,000 prize each
     
 
Prizes will be credited to participants’ trading accounts and may be withdrawn directly or used for normal trading and investments.
 
  1. Each participant may receive the $500 bonus only once per competition under the same identity information (including but not limited to the same ID card, phone number, email address, passport, etc.).
     
  2. Competition registration deadline: 22:00 on March 28
     
    Competition start time: 07:00 on March 30
     
  3. This trading competition is a Gold (XAUUSD) Trading Competition. The only tradable instrument is Spot Gold (XAUUSD), with 500:1 leverage. Currently, margin required for 1 lot is approximately US$1,000+. A $10 price fluctuation in XAUUSD results in a $1,000 profit or loss per 1 lot traded.
     
  4. Profits may be withdrawn after the competition ends, provided that:
     
    • All competition eligibility criteria are met;
    • Total trading volume reaches 20 lots within the competition period.
     
 
If withdrawal requirements are not met, profits may be converted into a 100% deposit bonus. For example: if a participant earns $2,000 in competition profits but does not win a ranking, a $2,000 deposit will grant a $2,000 bonus (this bonus cannot offset trading losses).
 

 

Competition Rules

 
Participants who fail to meet the minimum valid trading volume and minimum valid trading duration requirements will not be included in the final rankings.
 

Formula and Explanation of Final Rate of Return

 
Final Rate of Return = (Final Equity − 500) ÷ 500
 
Final Equity = Account equity at the end of the competition.
 
Participants are prohibited from manipulating competition results through malicious hedging across multiple accounts. If the hedging lot ratio of a participating account exceeds 50%, it will be deemed a violation of the principle of fair competition.
 
Upon detection of such behavior, GINZO reserves the right to disqualify the participant. GINZO will also monitor accounts of different participants; any malicious hedging identified will result in disqualification of the relevant participants.
 
Hedging Lot Ratio = (Hedging Order Lots ÷ Total Trading Lots) × 100%
 
A hedging lot ratio above 50% constitutes malicious hedging.
 
  • Hedging Order Lots Calculation: Includes all closed hedging orders and open hedging orders from successful registration until the end of the competition.
     
  • Total Trading Lots Calculation: Includes all closed orders and open orders from successful registration until the end of the competition.
     
  • The use of any trading techniques or expert advisors (EAs) is permitted, provided competition rules are not violated. Any arbitrage trading or abuse of pricing/quoting will result in immediate disqualification.
     
  • Following the competition, GINZO will announce the winner list within
