How the targets are counted:
- Eligibility: verified MIBs in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and the Maldives. Only clients living in these countries count.
- Network: clients from the first 5 levels of the MIB's network count.
- Lots: only closed XAUUSD trades on Standard accounts, each at least 0.01 lot and held for more than 30 seconds. Pro, ECN and other account types do not count.
- Net deposits: deposits minus withdrawals across all of the clients' accounts during the contest. Internal transfers do not count.
- New active client: a verified client who makes a first deposit and at least one valid trade during the contest. Each person counts once, however many accounts they hold.
- Referred clients do not have to join the Golden Trader Challenge for their activity to count.
FAQ
Do I get physical gold? Yes, rewards are in grams of gold, delivered within 30 days of the winner announcement. If you prefer, or if delivery is not possible, Valetax can pay the cash value of the gold at the market price instead.
Can I deposit or withdraw during the contest? Yes, traders can deposit and withdraw. For MIBs, withdrawals by referred clients reduce net deposits.
Do trades on other pairs count? No. Only XAUUSD trades on Standard accounts count, for both traders and MIBs.
Can an MIB win more than one tier? No. Each MIB receives one reward, for the highest tier reached.
What can get me disqualified? Multiple accounts, self-referral, farming, manipulation or any fraudulent activity. Valetax staff and their families cannot take part.
Risk warning: Trading forex and gold is high risk, and losses may exceed deposits. Only trade money you can afford to lose. Valetax may change, extend or cancel the contest at any time, so always check the latest Terms and Conditions in your Valetax account before you trade.
