W first round she earned the most WTI oilwhich rose from 34,4 to 40,5 dollars per barrel. In the following weeks, crude oil trend was not as evident. In the second round, investors showed that they can profit a lot from other energy resources. In addition to oil, the best transactions were, among others on natural gas, whose prices dropped dynamically throughout the week, making very shallow corrections. In the third week, those who chose the American trading floor, namely the technology companies sector (NASDAQ 100 index) and shares Tesla they could be pleased.

Individual stages

Return rates in individual weeks showed us when the market was most volatile. We recorded the best results in the first round. The winner of the first 5 session days "turned" the return rate in excess of  411% That is, from the initial 10 thousand. euros he managed to "do" over 50 euro. People with 292,34 percent results also stood on the podium. and 242.64 percent The leader after the first round invested mainly in oil by performing only 10 transactions.

II week it was characterized by smaller variability, which resulted in proportionally smaller individual results. Stock indices made a downward correction and the winner of this round obtained more than twice the worse result (+ 197 percent) than the best player from the first stage. In this case, the winner chose the German DAX market by opening trades on the DE30 (CFD on DAX futures) and the US stock market - through transactions on US100 (CFD on NASDAQ100 futures). In the middle of the week the player noted several severe losses. On many transactions, we've noticed a risk management strategy through the use of Stop Loss defense orders.

In the third week to win you had to get a rate of return of 184 percent. The best trader mainly focused on the US technology index. It was enough to look what happened with the Tesla shares quotation to have confirmation that it is these companies that have recently enjoyed the greatest popularity. In the final stage of the competition, the NASDAQ 100 index climbed to higher levels every day. Finally, he noted historical highs. It was a dream market for every short- and medium-term investor. Only on Friday the index moved in consolidation.

general classification

Once again the rule was confirmed that the winner of each round did not take a good place in the general classification. Only the winner of the 3rd stage (nickname: Rafkas) finally took 8th place. "Arnolddgt " - the best player in the general classification scoring 109 points he guaranteed himself "gold". The best single result of this participant was 6th in 1 week (+223,5%) and 14th place (+121%) in the 3rd round. Arnolddgt finished the middle stage with a negative result and a distant position in the ranking. This is another confirmation of the thesis that to win the whole competition you can have one of the stages completely unsuccessful. In the first and third rounds, the best trader chose only the US WTI oil market. He did not use defensive orders, he collected medium-sized profits, but in his statute you can find several high-profit positions that have built a portfolio of over 100 percent.

Second place - "Simo" twice occupied very distant places. In the third and second round it was at the gray end with an unimpressive result of over minus 63 percent. In the first week, a sensational result of over 292 percent. gave him 2nd place and 49 points in general classification. Additional 30 points - for the recommendations of the competition among friends - finally guaranteed him 2nd place in the TMS competition. Such a good result is the result of choosing a market - German index (DE30). Lots of trades with small profits, usually very short-lived - that was the dominant approach of this player.

"KaliFx" is the player from the 3rd place in the general classification. 2 good weeks with 109% and 161,7% return rates enough to stand on the podium in the general classification. The bronze medalist scored the middle stage with a result of -48.6 percent. I must admit that the 3rd place was won by this player without additional points "for orders". If an investor were also active in this field, then 2nd place would be guaranteed. KaliFx was not very original, because it mainly chose the German DAX contract for trading.
