This Could Be Your Lucky Break!

Hi there,

The first cut is coming up at the close of NY session today and that means action! Some traders are going to be over the moon while others will come crashing back down to earth.

If you’re in the top 50 and already completed the Compliance Phase you have nothing to worry about. Just keep in touch and have fun as you go through the process.

Most traders have already breezed through the first phases with ease, but those that haven’t completed the Compliance phase will be withdrawn by tomorrow.

That means that a spot in the top 20 opens up and the trader that is next in line will get a shot at hopping on board to trade one of our $1000 live trading accounts!

So if you finished anywhere in the top 70 at the end of the Demo Trading round, there is still a chance to get your turn up at bat. If you’re next in line you’ll be hearing from me soon!

Arbitro Lives!

Even if you didn’t make it into a top position you can continue trading on the demo account you have been using throughout the demo round. Our crew will have the leaderboard up and running within the next couple of hours. Once we’re done, Arbitro will kick into gear and resume from where it left off.

Just remember to restart your platform and re-apply the EA if it does not authenticate straightaway.

Once you’re authenticated, you will find that your trading stats and the leaderboard are being updated once more. Then keep an eye out for our new site, it is going to blow your socks off!

I’ll send you more details as soon as we are ready to unveil the new site. I just know you are going to be blown away!

By this time tomorrow, we will cut the first batch of traders that do not make the cut, so stay tuned to see who gets knocked off the leaderboard and who rises to the challenge!

Happy Trading

Wesley Govender
Tournament Director

P.S. If you’re in the top 50, don’t stray too far from your mailbox tomorrow. Opportunity may come knocking!

P.P.S. Outside the top 50? Bought when you should have sold? Zigged when you should have zagged? No need to worry, just keep on trading! All will be revealed soon!

It’s Time To Get Cracking!

Hi everyone,

The Finalists area is now 100% complete so if you have not checked it out just yet make your way down here and login now:

http://www.surefiretradingchallenge.com/sftcv3/

As you know, the top 20 competitors go though to the Live Trading round but it usually takes between 30-50 traders to get the top 20 finalists.

Right now, only the top 50 traders have access to the LIVE ROUND section, and information has been streaming in at quite a steady rate. Our team will be going through the info we’ve received and start getting in touch with the traders that have made submissions.

==============
VERY IMPORTANT
==============

Remember: This is the point where we lose a lot of traders that are unable to keep up with the pace. That’s why we send these emails to the top 50 or more finalists, not just the top 20.

This is just a friendly reminder that the first cut is coming up within the next day or two. So, if you have not yet signalled your intent to continue as a finalist in the LIVE ROUND, the time is NOW!

If you want a shot at trading one of our $1000 LIVE trading accounts then the next step is to login here:

http://www.surefiretradingchallenge.com/sftcv3/

Once you have logged in successfully, you will see the LIVE ROUND banner (you will only see this banner if you have been granted access). This link will take you to the finalist’s area where you can start the process.

The faster we get 20 traders through this step, the faster we can start the live trading round and allocate you a live trading account so I hope to see you in the LIVE trading round!
