Followme Trading League returns with Season 18

The Followme Trading League Season 18 has opened its doors to global participants, inviting traders with live MT4 accounts from more than 4,400 supported brokers to compete in a structured international contest. The competition runs from April 27 to July 26, 2026 (UTC+2), while registration remains open until June 29.

Held twice annually, the league positions itself as a platform aimed at identifying skilled traders and encouraging disciplined, high-quality trading strategies. Organisers emphasise principles of openness, fairness, and impartiality, while offering participants an opportunity to benchmark their performance against peers across different regions.

Participants are categorised into three groups based on account equity and experience. The Micro Group caters to traders with equity between USD100 and below USD10,000, while the Large Group includes accounts with at least USD10,000. The Evergreen Group is reserved for returning participants who meet specific activity and participation criteria from previous seasons.

Prize incentives and partnership opportunities grow

Season 18 features tiered prize pools across all categories, with higher rewards allocated to the Large Group. Champions in this category stand to receive USD14,000, while Micro Group winners can earn up to USD8,000. The Evergreen Group offers smaller but targeted incentives for consistent participants. In addition, traders ranked within the Global Top 20 in the Micro and Large categories will receive certificates recognising their performance.

Regional engagement is further encouraged through progressive reward structures. Countries or regions with at least 30 participating accounts unlock additional prizes, with higher tiers activated as participation reaches 80 and 150 accounts.

Beyond the competition itself, the league is also inviting broker partnerships, positioning the event as a marketing and engagement platform within the broader trading ecosystem. Organisers report that by Season 17, participation had exceeded 100,000 accounts, with cumulative equity surpassing USD703 million and total prizes distributed reaching over USD550,000.

The latest season reflects continued efforts to scale participation while maintaining competitive standards in an increasingly crowded global trading landscape.
