Headway has launched Skill Arena, a new demo trading contest for traders who want to compete based on their own results. Since automated trading is not allowed, every result depends on personal strategy, risk control, and steady performance.

The contest has a total prize pool of $2,125. By the end of the event, the top 10 traders on the leaderboard will win cash prizes based on their account growth.

Because the contest runs on demo accounts, traders can join without putting real money at risk. At the same time, they still get to trade in real market conditions and test their approach in a live contest setting.

Participants can trade all available instruments during the event. Headway also offers up to 1:500 contest leverage, so traders can use different methods and setups while they compete.

Leaderboard positions are based on account growth during the contest period. As a result, traders with the strongest performance will move higher in the rankings and earn a share of the prize pool.
