How to enter the Weltrade $10,000 weekly contest

Updated October 23, 2026

Weltrade runs a weekly draw with a $10,000 prize pool. Entry costs nothing beyond the trading you already do. This guide covers how to enter the Weltrade $10,000 weekly contest, how the draws are run, and where the fine print bites.

Ten winners are picked every week. The only requirement is a turnover of at least two lots inside the contest week. The account has to be live and funded. No entry form, no promo code, no extra deposit beyond the account minimum. Below is the sequence: opening and verifying the account, the volume rule, the prize table, and the promos that look better than they are.

How to enter the Weltrade weekly prize draws

Weltrade calls the draw Trade2Win, and as broker promotions go it is unusually plain. There is no separate registration form. There is no bonus turnover to clear before the money becomes yours.

In order to be eligible for the Weltrade weekly prize draw, called Trade2Win, you will need to first open an account.

Open a real-money trading account with Weltrade by signing up here.

Choose your account type, with minimum deposits ranging from $1 to $100.

Verify the account information and your phone number. Verification is completed inside your profile, under Settings, then Verification.

Demo accounts don’t qualify for the prize pool.

Deposit the minimum amount required for the trading account selected.

Trade at least two lots within the week to be automatically entered into the draw.

The week starts and ends on Sunday at 1500 (UTC +2 time).

A “lot” is 100,000 worth of currency, or USD equivalent.

The odds of winning are low, however. Weltrade states that they have more than 600,000 traders.

Therefore, don’t trade more than you should simply to be entered into the draw. At all times, make sure you’re using the correct position size and trading according to your strategy.

The best chance of winning a prize comes from trading well and making sure you make profits in your account first and foremost. The longer you trade, the greater the chance that you may eventually win the draw simply by trading how you always trade.

"I just wait until there is money lying in the corner, and all I have to do is go over there and pick it up. I do nothing in the meantime." That is Jim Rogers, the legendary trader. It is a fair description of how this contest should fit into a week.

How the Weltrade Trade2Win weekly prize draw works

Each week, 10 traders can win prizes. The winners are selected at random from the eligible contestants.

How to Enter the WelTrade Weekly Prize Draws

Draws are made on Sunday at 1500 (UTC+2 time). There is one prize of $3,000, one prize of $2,000, one prize of $1,500, and seven prizes of $500.

Only transactions made between the start of the weekly contest and the close of the weekly contest are eligible.

Entry is automatic once the account is in good standing. The two lot volume has to be done inside the week. You do not have to claim anything or write to support.

If a prize is won, it is automatically added to the trader's account.

The prize can be used for trading or can be withdrawn. That’s a big perk over many broker’s promotions, because most brokers usually don’t allow you to withdraw the winnings, while Weltrade does.

Lot sizes vary by trading instrument. Two lots, for the sake of this contest, is $200,000 worth of transactions.

A worked example of the two lot requirement

Say you trade EUR/USD in 0.1 lot clips. Ten positions of that size add up to one lot. Twenty add up to the two lots the contest asks for. On a $100 account that is a serious amount of exposure, and this is where traders talk themselves into trouble. The safer route is the boring one. Size positions the way your plan says and let the volume accumulate. If a normal week already produces two lots, the entry is free. If it does not, forcing the turnover costs more in spread than the draw is worth. Weltrade reports over 600,000 traders, and ten win in a week.

Any attempt to manipulate the prize draw, including hedging, will not count toward the prize draw. If a prize is won under such circumstances, the prize will not be awarded to the person.

Other Weltrade Promotions

Free iPhone giveaway

How about a new phone? You can get one just for trading volume.

The mechanic is simple. Complete 600 lots of trading volume inside a calendar year and the phone is yours. The lots have to be closed before the year ends. The offer has run in several editions and the device model changed between them. Confirm the current model and volume target on the broker's promotions page.

If you don’t want the phone, you can take $1000 in cash instead (available for withdrawal). As with the Trade2Win promotion, a “lot” is 100,000 worth of transactions, USD equivalent.

If you reach the 600 lots of trading volume within the calendar year, email info@weltrade.com or contact support via live chat to alert them to receive your prize.

Astrocards for free money

Astrocards are similar to instant-win prizes. For every $50 you deposit, you get one Astrocard round. A $500 deposit receives 10 Astrocard rounds.

A round is selecting three Astrocards from a set of five. Once you’ve selected, the value of the cards you selected is revealed.

The value of your selected cards is summed up and then added to the account. This amount cannot be withdrawn. This promotion is only available on MT5 and Universe account types.

Spinner for free money

This promotion is similar to Astrocards. For every $30 of deposits, you get a spin of the wheel to earn a deposit bonus.

Each spin reveals an amount that will be deposited into the account. This amount cannot be withdrawn but can be used for trading. This promotion is for MT5 account types only.

100% deposit bonus

On MT5 accounts get up to a 10,000 EUR or USD bonus, depending on how much you deposit. Deposit at least 200 EUR/USD and receive that same amount as a deposit bonus. The bonus cannot be withdrawn.

Things to be aware of with the Weltrade promotions

Promotions can be great. The fine print decides whether they are. The split runs along one line: is the prize your money, or is it credit that lives inside the account?

The Weltrade Trade2Win and iPhone giveaway are excellent promotions. If you complete the required trading volume you are eligible for a prize (or prize draw in the case of Trade2Win). You can withdraw your winnings or trade with it. That money or iPhone is yours.

With the deposit bonus, spinner bonus, or Astrocards promotions, that money is not yours. For example, if you deposit $1000 into the account and receive a $1000 in deposit bonus, your account balance will show $2000, but $1000 of it is not yours.

If you lose $1000, you will have lost the money you deposited and the deposit bonus will disappear (because the other $1000 is not yours to lose), making your account balance $0.

The verdict

Trade2Win and the phone giveaway share one useful property. The prize is real money or a real device, and it is yours to withdraw. The deposit bonus, the spinner and Astrocards are credit rather than cash. They disappear with the first serious drawdown. Treat the first group as a small extra on trading you were going to do anyway. Treat the second as a reason to read the terms twice. If a promo is the main reason an account looks attractive, that is the moment to compare brokers on spreads, withdrawal speed and regulation. A shortlist of regulated brokers is worth more over a year than any weekly draw.

FAQ

What is the Weltrade $10,000 weekly contest?

Trade2Win is a weekly prize draw with a $10,000 pool. Ten traders are drawn at random from everyone who traded at least two lots on a live account during the contest week.

How does the contest work in 2026?

The week runs from Sunday 15:00 UTC+2 to the same time the following Sunday. Trade two lots inside that window on a funded account and you are entered automatically. The draw happens at the Sunday cut-off.

How do I get started?

Open a live account, pick a type with a minimum deposit between $1 and $100, verify your details and phone number under Settings, then Verification, and fund it. Demo accounts do not qualify.

What are the common mistakes?

Over-trading to reach two lots is the big one: the extra spread usually costs more than the draw is worth. Hedging to pump volume counts as manipulation and voids the prize. Mixing up withdrawable prizes with bonus credit is the other frequent error.

Is it suitable for beginners?

The draw itself is harmless. Entry needs no deposit beyond the account minimum and no separate sign-up. The risk is behavioural: a beginner chasing turnover on a $100 account will lose more to position sizing than any prize returns.
