FXOpen: “Could you please describe your “way in Forex” i.e., how you began, developed your trading skills, made your first profitable trade, etc.?”
Winner: “I can’t say I have any special way in Forex. One day, I just thought why not try entering the market’ and I’ve become a part of the Forex community since then. I moved on, chose a single broker to work with – that was FXOpen – and focused on developing my skills further. I do remember my first trade: I picked the EUR/USD as a financial instrument for it.”
FXOpen: “How did you learn about the ForexCup competitions? Have you ever participated in contests organized by other brokers?”

FXOpen: “What distinguishes ForexCup from other competitions in your opinion?”
Winner: “From my point of view, ForexCup holds excellent trading contests. They are almost perfect. The project’s website is a little bit slow at times but in general, I like it a lot.”
FXOpen: “This Championship was one of the biggest events in ForexCup history. What made you join this particular competition?”
Winner: “The answer is easy: I just wanted to try, nothing else. I joined the Championship without any hesitation. At the end of the tournament, I was really proud of myself.”

Winner: “Yes, I’ve worked out my personal strategy before the contest and followed it every time.”
FXOpen: “You have been awarded with a PAMM ECN account with a healthy deposit. Are you satisfied with this type of reward, or would you rather prefer prize money?”
Winner: “Honestly speaking, I would take “live” money.”
FXOpen: “Do you have any plans on how you will manage your PAMM ECN account?”
