Global multi-asset broker Tickmill has reintroduced its exciting NFP Machine Contest, offering traders and market enthusiasts the chance to win up to $500 in real cash by forecasting the post-NFP market price of a selected trading instrument.
Timed with the release of the US Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) report—one of the most influential economic indicators—the contest challenges participants to anticipate how markets will react and rewards those who come closest to the actual price.
How It Works:
- Instrument Reveal: One trading instrument is announced each NFP week via Tickmill’s official Facebook page.
- Make Your Prediction: Guess the price of the selected instrument on Tickmill’s MT4/MT5 platforms at 16:00 (server time)—30 minutes after the NFP release.
- Submit Entries: Predictions must be submitted via Woobox from Monday 00:00 to Friday 15:00 during NFP week.
- Win Real Cash:
- Exact Price Match: Win $500 in cash.
- Top 3 Closest Predictions: Share a prize pool of up to $250 if no exact match is made.
Winners are publicly announced on Tickmill’s Facebook page following each contest, maintaining a transparent and interactive community experience.
