October 17th, 2024 – Global broker XM is excited to announce the launch of its latest Mega Competition: US Election Special, offering traders the chance to win a share of $100,000 in cash prizes.

Running from 31 October to 14 November, this exclusive, limited-time competition is designed to coincide with the US Election, adding an extra layer of excitement for traders looking to trade the election volatility with stable leverage to potentially win big cash prizes.

This two-week competition also offers traders the perfect opportunity to test their trading strategies and take advantage of XM’s attractive bonuses.

The competition‘s $100,000 prize pool will be split between 200 winners. The top 100 traders will compete based on their trading performance, sharing in $90,000, while an additional $10,000 will be awarded to 100 lucky participants through a lucky draw.

Why You Should Participate

Get a 100% Deposit Bonus: Traders get a 100% deposit bonus of up to $500 to compete with.
Make Your Trading Count: Trading during the competition period counts towards the participating trader’s rank on the leaderboard.
Unlimited Cashback Promo: XM clients, that join the promotion, get a $250 cashback for every 50 lots on selected assets during the competition.
Win Cash Prizes by Skill or Luck: Top performers and lucky traders both walk away with cash prizes.
