We are currently halfway through the LiteFinance 20th Anniversary Challenge, and the competition is becoming more intense: participants accumulate more points in the weekly challenge with each passing month. In other words, the number of trades and referrals is soaring.
Today, we are reviewing the contest’s midterm results. We will analyze how participants earn points and examine their point-earning strategies.
The article covers the following subjects:
How Participants Prefer to Collect Points?
There are three main ways to earn points:
- Making deposits;
- Trading;
- Attracting referrals.
The top 10 participants have gained most of their points through trading, including copy trading and attracting referrals.
Indeed, deposits can bring you points, but they do not carry much weight in the weekly rankings. However, in the overall standings, points gained from deposits can help you secure a prize-winning position.
Participants rarely take advantage of opportunities to earn “quick points” awarded for installing and using the LiteFinance mobile app and subscribing to the company’s social media accounts. It’s worth seizing this opportunity, as an extra 70 points could mean victory in the weekly rankings.
Remember that you can only get points for installing the mobile app and subscribing to social media once during the contest. So, it is better to grab this chance to boost your ranking if you are just a few points away from winning a prize.
Is It Possible to Enter Top 10 Rankings Without Trading?
Most participants from the top 10 of the overall ranking earn points solely through their trading activity. Meanwhile, attracting referrals can also bring you a lot of points, securing you a top spot in the overall ranking, and all this without trading.
It may sound unbelievable, but one participant has managed to make it into the top ten of the weekly challenge once without making a single trade or topping up their account. Moreover, the participant remains in the top 10 of the yearly ranking and has every chance to travel to Dubai for a gala dinner in honor of the contest winners and LiteFinance’s 20th anniversary.
The mystery behind this achievement is quite straightforward: the participant has attracted over 2,000 referrals. The new clients were actively trading: in the five months of the Challenge, they traded over 12,000 lots, and their total deposit amounted to approximately $500,000. As a result, the participant has collected over 15,000 points through attracting new referrals.
As you can see, referrals can grant a significant advantage and perhaps even help you win prizes. Therefore, affiliate programs really deserve your attention.

Anniversary Challenge Statistics
In this section, we will take a look at how client activity changed over the five months of the Anniversary Challenge.
The participants’ trading volume, as well as the number of new referrals, have grown significantly over the past five months. In May 2025, clients from the top 10 of the overall ranking earned more points than in February, notching an increase of 61.38%.
The average number of points per participant in the top 10 soared from 4,342 in February to 7,008 in May.
As a rule, participants focus on trading to earn points. The average deposit of participants in the top 10 has reached a stunning $7,224 since the Challenge began.
Each weekly challenge has a limit on the maximum number of points you can earn. For example, for the first two deposits of $250, you can earn 50 points per each deposit, and for the first two deposits of $500, you can earn 60 points per each deposit. That means that by replenishing your trading account with 2 × ($250 + $500) = $1,500, you can earn 220 points each week. The great news is that completing this weekly challenge can help you gain an edge in the weekly, monthly, and yearly contest rankings.
How Participants of Anniversary Challenge Trade?
Let’s take a look at what assets contest participants like to trade and what strategies they use.
Most participants use mobile apps to trade – 41.69% of trades were opened using the trading apps.
Many LiteFinance clients prefer passive income – 30.80% of positions are opened using the copy trading system.
The number of algorithmic trading enthusiasts is relatively small. Since the launch of the Challenge, only 10.85% of trades have been opened using expert advisors.
Meanwhile, contest participants tend to use the following tools to minimize their risks:
- Mobile trading gives traders the freedom to comfortably access the markets anywhere in the world and quickly adjust their trading strategies in response to changes in a rapidly evolving financial landscape.
- Copy trading is a perfect fit for beginners, but it is also a go-to strategy for experienced traders. It enables investors to assess risk and potential profit, offering a smart approach to letting professionals manage investments.
- Expert advisors can bring considerable profits with both short-term and long-term strategies. However, given the recent changes in financial markets, it is essential to constantly adjust the settings of trading robots. Otherwise, it could result in significant losses.
The picture becomes more intriguing when it comes to trading instruments. Below is a list of the most popular assets among contest participants:
- Gold (XAUUSD);
- Major currency pairs (EURUSD, USDJPY, USDCAD, etc.);
- Cross currency pairs (EURGBP, GBPCHF, AUDCAD, etc.);
- Bitcoin (BTCUSD).
These trading instruments can comprise a fairly balanced trading portfolio for a number of reasons.
Gold is a sound defensive asset. The precious metal has been steadily increasing in value, particularly during times of economic turmoil.
Currency pairs allow you to make a profit intraday. Major currency pairs are easy to predict, and you can always find fresh forecasts and analytics for them on the LiteFinance blog.
Bitcoin is a pretty versatile asset. Its high volatility means you can earn money during a single day. BTC is also great for position trading: if you enter the market at an optimal point, you can make hefty profits in just 1–2 months.

Conclusion
The LiteFinance 20th Anniversary Challenge still has six months to go. If you are determined to win, explore every avenue for earning points, including attracting new referrals and making deposits.
Furthermore, it would be remiss to neglect the practical benefits! The more your referrals trade and deposit, the more points you get, and the more profits you receive.
Deposit more to open larger trades and increase your potential profits. If trading routine is not you core passion, you can use the copy trading system to duplicate transactions of professional traders. This strategy can bring you both profits and points.
