Trademax Global Markets (TMGM), the world’s third largest platform for MT4/5 trading volume generating over $838 billion in monthly volume, is launching its 11th annual global trading competition, with a prize pool of $671,500 for participants.
Specifically, they are introducing categories to the 2025-2026 edition: the Crypto Group and the Indices Group. Notably, the Indices Group, which is tailored specifically for traders who read market sentiment and macro signals, includes popular majors like DOW Jones (US30), S&P 500 (US500), Nasdaq (NAS100), and GER40. The Crypto Group is now designed for more aggressive traders who can take advantage of the relatively high volatility seen in some of the top cryptos such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The competition has previously catered to traditional forex markets and equity markets. Traders will have more specialised avenues to showcase their prowess with the introduction of the new crypto category.
To participate in the competition, users must have a valid TMGM trading account. Participants can trade, with nicknames that must be either letters or numbers and observe the relevant rules within the competition to remain eligible throughout to feature in the final rankings.
Registration has been ongoing from December 1, 2025, and the competition will remain open until March 1, 2026. Notably, the competition is not open to traders in New Zealand, Australia, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom.

What the competition intends to achieve
Previous editions of the trading competition have attracted traders from hundreds of countries. The traders compete for meaningful and rewarding opportunities with the life changing potential of the prize money as they go further in the competition.
The competition seeks to reward trading excellence from participants. Trading is a highly skilled activity that requires a comprehensive understanding of markets, combined with precision. These qualities distinguish novice traders from true experts. The increased number of categories accommodates more trading styles, which is more representative of the diversity in modern financial markets.
TMGM is introducing the Crypto Group for the first time to cater to this growing demographic. Cryptocurrencies are increasingly a part of the financial mainstream, and world class brokerages now feature diverse options to accommodate this sector. There are over 20 crypto pairs available for trading. Some of them include Cardano (ADAUSD), Avalanche (AVXUSD), and Ripple (XRPUSD).
In 2025, more complex crypto products were launched to cater to increasing institutional demand. To put in the numbers, as of late 2025, spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs managed over $100 billion worth of assets. Crypto enthusiasts can participate in their area of expertise and also showcase their trading prowess.
There are commonalities between crypto and traditional markets, but also remarkable differences. Some products,such as CFDs and Futures, feature in both markets. However, the factors that move prices of the underlying product are remarkably different.
Cryptos like Bitcoin and Ethereum are also relatively more volatile. The price movements in a given day of trading far outpace the level of movement in traditional markets, including those of top indices like SP 500, for example. Therefore, traders who have cut their teeth in these murky waters may have a different skillset from those who have only dabbled in equities or forex.
Partnerships with Brooklyn Nets and Chelsea boosts visibility
TMGM has also entered into key partnerships in recent years to strengthen its brand presence and expand its international network. In July, TMGM struck a deal with NBA Franchise Brooklyn Nets to become one of the team’s official sponsors. Similarly, the platform has partnered with Premier League team Chelsea, leveraging Chelsea’s international popularity to boost visibility.
These complement dozens of other partnerships and collaborations for growth and marketing in various markets. TMGM looks to create long-term reliability and trust among its community of users and millions of other potential new users globally. The renewed focus on crypto traders is an acknowledgment of the growth potential in this sector moving forward.
