The JustMarkets Grand Anniversary Trading Competition is a two-month trading contest with more than one way to win. It runs from June 1, through July 31, , and both new and existing clients can join.

Some prizes come as gold or a cash equivalent, while others are cash awards paid to the trading account. If you want in, the smart move is to understand the account rules, volume targets, and deadlines before the contest starts.

What the JustMarkets anniversary competition offers

This promotion is bigger than a simple top-performer race. It combines guaranteed leaderboard rewards with random draws, so steady traders and high-volume traders both have a real shot.

Across the full event, there are 85 prizes. If every gold award were taken as cash, the listed value adds up to $47,400.

Prize pool and reward types

The reward structure is split across the leaderboard, the final lucky draw, and the weekly draws.

The gold rewards sit at the top of the prize ladder, and the smaller cash awards spread across more winners. That balance matters because it keeps the contest attractive even if you are not chasing the very top rank.

The terms also allow gold prizes to be exchanged for their cash value. If a gold prize is unavailable for reasons outside JustMarkets' control, the company can provide the matching cash amount instead.

Why this contest is different from a normal trading promotion

Many trading promotions push traders into one lane. You either need the biggest volume, or you rely on pure luck. This anniversary contest blends both approaches.

If you trade enough to rank, you can target a guaranteed Top 15 prize. Meanwhile, if you meet the minimum activity level, you also get access to weekly or final draws. That gives smaller, active traders a reason to participate, even if they do not expect to finish near the top of the leaderboard.

Another useful point is that weekly draw odds do not improve with extra lots once you qualify. Each eligible participant gets one chance for that week. So, the contest rewards work in different ways, depending on the prize path you are aiming for.

Who can join and what you need before entering

Entry is open to both existing clients and people opening a new account. However, you must be old enough to enter a binding contract in your country, and minors cannot take part.

The contest only accepts live accounts that match the eligible account types. Demo trading does not count, so practice accounts stay outside the event.

Account type, deposit, and registration rules

JustMarkets limits the competition to Standard, Pro, and Raw Spread accounts. To activate participation, you need to deposit at least $100 into the account you want to use. An internal transfer from another account does not count as that deposit.

You also need to register through the Personal Area. The path is simple: open the Benefits section, choose the account for the contest, and add a nickname. That nickname is what appears on the public leaderboard.

Only one trading account per client can compete. If you trade on several accounts, JustMarkets does not combine that volume for the contest. Because of that rule, picking the right account from the start matters.

Trading volume needed to qualify

The volume rules split into weekly and full-period targets. To enter a Weekly Lucky Draw, you need to trade at least 3 universal lots during that week, counted from Monday through Sunday.

For the Final Lucky Draw, the threshold is 10 universal lots during the full contest period. In other words, a slow but steady pace can still get you into the end-of-event draw.

A universal lot equals $100,000 in opened and closed trading volume. That figure can feel abstract, so the instrument matters. For example, opening and closing 1 lot of XAUUSD, which is 100 contracts, creates about $265,000 in volume. Because prices and contract sizes vary, one universal lot does not look the same across all markets.

How the leaderboard, weekly draws, and final draw work

The competition has three moving parts. There is a daily leaderboard, there are weekly random draws, and there is one final draw after the contest ends.

That setup gives you more than one scoring system. Your total lots matter for the leaderboard, while simple qualification opens the door to the draws.

The Top 15 leaderboard rewards

The Top 15 winners are based on total lots traded during the contest period. JustMarkets updates the leaderboard daily on its website, and the board shows each participant under the nickname chosen at registration.

The ranking breaks into three prize bands. Positions 1 through 3 receive 20 grams of gold or $3,000. Positions 4 through 8 get 10 grams of gold or $1,500, while positions 9 through 15 receive 5 grams of gold or $700.

These are guaranteed prizes, not random selections. If you finish in those spots, you are in line for the matching reward. The company states that ranking and prize decisions are final, so disputes over placement are not part of the process.

Weekly Lucky Draw prizes

The weekly draw is the easiest extra route to a cash prize. Once you hit the weekly trading requirement, JustMarkets enters you automatically for that week.

The draw uses a digital randomizer called the Wheel of Fortune, and it takes place each Tuesday for the prior Monday-to-Sunday period. Every eligible client gets one chance, no matter how much volume they traded above the minimum. That keeps the weekly draw simple and broad.

There are five weekly winners each time, and each one receives $200. The contest runs across eight weekly draws, which creates 40 weekly cash prizes in total. A participant can only win once in the same week, so repeated selections are replaced.

Final Lucky Draw prizes

After July 31, JustMarkets runs a final random draw for clients who met the contest-wide trading requirement. This draw also uses a digital randomizer, but the pool is divided by trading volume.

Participants fall into three tiers. Tier 1 is for traders with 100 lots or more, and it pays $1,000 to 10 winners. Tier 2 covers 50 to 99 lots, with 10 winners getting $500 each. Tier 3 includes 10 to 49 lots, and 10 winners receive $300 each.

A participant can win only once in the final draw. If the same person is selected again during the draw process, JustMarkets keeps the first result and redraws the later one. Entry itself is free, and the terms state that the contest should not be treated as a lottery or gambling activity.

Rules, deadlines, and reasons a winner can lose a prize

A strong trading result is only part of the story. Winners still need to answer messages, complete verification, and stay inside the fair play rules.

That is where many traders slip. Administrative mistakes can cancel a prize even after a winning finish.

Verification and winner response deadlines

JustMarkets contacts winners by email and phone, using the details stored in the Personal Area. If you win, you need to stay reachable for 10 calendar days from the first contact attempt.

There is also a verification deadline. Your Personal Area must be fully verified within 7 business days after the winner announcement. If verification is not complete in time, JustMarkets can cancel the reward.

Use real contact details and complete verification early, not after you win.

The company may also use a winner's full name, country of residence, and photo with the prize in its marketing. That includes website, social media, and other promotional material tied to the event.

Fair play rules and disqualification risks

The terms put a clear focus on fraud control. If JustMarkets finds signs that multiple accounts are linked, it can disqualify those accounts. The same risk applies to matching IP addresses, shared personal data, or other signs of coordinated activity.

Trade behavior matters too. Offsetting positions, large opposite orders on the same pair across different accounts, or attempts to profit from quote flow failures can all lead to removal from the contest. The rules also mention abuse of technical errors and other forms of cheating.

In plain terms, this is a one-account, real-identity contest. Use accurate personal data, trade normally, and avoid tactics designed to game the scoring or the pricing feed. One detail that may help partners is that the terms do not place a special limit on partner revenue share from participating accounts.

What to expect after the contest ends

After the contest closes, JustMarkets announces the main Top 15 winners no later than the following week. The company also publishes draw times, locations, and winner lists on its website and official social channels, with lists posted within 10 business days after winners are selected.

Prize delivery depends on the reward type. Weekly draw prizes are credited to the contest trading account within 10 business days. Final draw prizes follow the same 10-business-day timeline.

The Top 15 prizes take longer. Gold rewards, or their cash equivalent, are sent or credited within 45 days after the winner confirms and responds. Money prizes are not locked for trading only, because the terms say they can be used for trading activity or withdrawn.

The terms also give JustMarkets broad control over edge cases. The company can update the contest rules, cancel the event without prior notice, and decide outcomes for situations not covered in the written conditions. Because of that, it makes sense to read the latest version of the rules before you register and again before the contest ends.

Conclusion

The JustMarkets anniversary trading competition offers more than one route to a prize. You can push for a Top 15 finish, aim for weekly draws with steady activity, or qualify for the final draw by reaching the right volume tier.

That flexibility only helps if your setup is correct. Register one eligible live account, fund it with at least $100, and set your nickname. Keep your verification current, because in this contest details matter as much as volume.
