The GFT Trading Challenge Begins!

Trade to win $50,000, Tweet to win cool prizes

The GFT Trading Challenge is in full swing. As a result, the forex blogosphere and Twitterverse are buzzing with articles, comments and tweets.


So far, more than 7,000 traders have qualified for the worldwide trading competition that will award more than $100,000 in cash and prizes.

Traders are tracking their rate against the rest of the world’s best traders. Watch the action here!

As part of the contest, GFT is holding a “tweeting contest” to help create even more buzz. GFT revealed yesterday that the first Twitter contest prize giveaway is an iPod Touch® and iTunes gift card worth $150!

So far, more than 2,000 tweets were delivered by more than 300 different people using Twitter. Sign up here.


GFT has also taken a unique approach in Australia, where it worked with one of the largest financial sites, the Bull.com.au, to add a GFT Trading Challenge ‘skin’ around the entire website: see it by clicking here

The popular website in the UK, Economy News, also published a story about the trading contest.
