How it works

From a free demo to a funded account

No entry fee, no deposit. Win the funded account challenge — we pay for it — then pass its two phases to start earning real payouts.

  1. Get an Axi MT5 demo account

    Any free Axi MT5 demo works — a brand-new one or the one you already have. No deposit is ever required to compete. New to Axi? You can use our referral link below (optional).

    Already with Axi? Your existing demo works — skip straight to step 2. The link above is an affiliate link and is optional: entry, eligibility and prizes are identical either way.

  2. Link your demo & trade

    Connect your MT5 demo with its read-only investor password, then trade from Monday 00:00 to Sunday 23:59 UTC. Your ranking updates live all week.

    Link my account →

    Sign in, link your MT5 demo, and you're in this week's contest.

  3. Win your funded account challenge

    Finish in the weekly top 3 and we buy you a €5,000 Crypto Fund Trader funded account challenge — the one others pay for. Best trader of the month gets €25,000.

  4. Pass its two phases, then get funded

    Clear CFT's phase 1 and phase 2 and your results start earning real payouts, of which you keep 75%. Trading stays simulated; the money does not. The challenge isn't skipped — its cost is.

    CFT's rules & limits →

The investor password is read-only — we can see your results, but nobody can ever trade on your account.

What you're playing for

Crypto Fund Trader funded account challenges, bought for you. Pass their two phases and your results start earning real payouts — you keep 75% of each one. Trading stays simulated throughout; the money paid out does not.

Every week

3 × €5,000

CFT funded account challenges — one for each of the week's top 3 traders

  • Free entry, demo trading only
  • We buy the account — it costs you nothing
  • Pass CFT phase 1 & 2 → funded, 75% of every payout is yours
Monthly champion

€25,000

funded account challenge for the best trader of the month

  • Awarded on top of weekly prizes
  • Consistency wins the month
  • Pass CFT phase 1 & 2 → funded, you keep 75%

Prizes are 2-phase evaluation accounts at Crypto Fund Trader, not already-funded capital: you become funded, and payouts become real, once you pass both phases. The accounts are provided by CFT and subject to their terms, trading rules and drawdown limits. Winners sign a profit-share agreement: 75% of net payouts go to the trader, 25% supports the contest and next season's prize pool.
