The format for above is this-
img]http://www.mt4stats.com/sig1/rowdy.gif[/img]
url=http://rowdy.mt4stats.com]rowdy[/url]

Add the left square bracket to both lines above(Left Square Bracket is [ )as the very first character and change rowdy to your username. This should get your sig and gif to look like the above.

If someone has already used your username on MT4stats then just use something close that I can recognize like your username and the number 1(mine would be rowdy1). This is just an example. The point is that I know who you are and what your totals are. I am trying to keep this simple.

Good Luck to all!

Great idea.

Why not make it mini account $400 USD -- MO recommends small accounts and build up. This will also increase the horses at the starting line and reduce gross losses. Also, rather than gross dollars won, make it gross percent increase in account, no matter what the starting size?

If you need any help admining this, I'd be glad to help out.

Patch,
Thanks for the feedback. My thought was to use a 10K demo account. I really did not want to keep up with percentages. Based on the few responses to this idea, it doesnt seem as if anyone is interested in this idea.

It is a shame because I would love to see TRO and MO go head to head. That would be like the Super Bowl of Trading.

I noticed the response has been overwhelming. Let it ride for a few days and see.

Personally I don't like trading a demo account that is beyond the reality of my bank account, and MO has spoken about this matter several times on NLA. Living beyond our means, and trading the same way, both lead to financial disaster.

just a little suggestion here for all who intended to do this...

if the participation is in demo account why not:

1. use the same broker (MT4) for all participants
2. give away the account number and read-only investor password so the people will benefit from true real-time trading (it's easier to check different accounts using the same broker).

I'm sure many visitors and other traders will be interested/ frequent this thread and bring more people to our home site kreslik.

@Patch
and maybe add another contest that ONLY use EAs. I've seen sites that compare EAs (affiliate sites) and it will be good to bring similar thing here.


this topic will be great to discuss for months to come due to the diversity of traders and EAs.


Good trading to all!
