How to get a free 100$ forex account without depositing a dime

here is the tip, there is this currency broker called uwcfx that launched a special offer with a payment solution called okpay all you have to do is go and register with okpay at okpay.com then you will get an e-mail with a coupon code for the free 100$ and from there you go to uwcfx.com sign up and verify your account with the needed documents then enter the coupon code in the deposit page in your account and walla you have 100$ in your account.
after you trade 5 contracts with them you can take out the money and your profits whereas if you lose, well you don't lose any of your own money because its free money in the first place. I made 290 with the free $100 that I got trading EUR against USD :)
Its a good way to try forex for the first time as execution time differs between real accounts and demo accounts. I estimated that forex has around 400x bigger risk/reward ratio than usual currency futures trading but surely its much more interesting than playing poker online on the at night when market is closed.

How'd you estimate that?

Depending on the losses and wining of my forex clients. try it your self, its way too risky to be considered an investment but rather a form of controlled gambling. Much more factors effect currency prices compared to the prices of a stock not to mention the huge leverage involved (in the case of the free 100$ offer the leverage is 1:500).

 

This just worked for me, surprised nobody else is jumping on it.

Took about 15 minutes to sign up, 3 hours to verify documents.

Now anyone got some good trades?!

 

OKPay is an e-payment system like paypal.

"Verified documents?" yeah they are a regulated EU broker so they need an ID and proof of address (utility bill).

"sounds sketch. wondering where they expect to make >$100 off of me." in the forex brokerage industry an account costs a little over 100 in marketing expenses, so they did this promotion to market them selves and am sure many of those who came for the 100$ will stay and start depositing and trading bigger lots.

Now anyone got some good trades?! "am following the trend on EUR USD

To the folks who opened accounts, how has it worked out so far?

Pretty well for me. I turned the free $100 into $100K, and am thinking about taking the rest of 2011 off. I urge everybody to try it.

 

I uploaded the required docs and await their funding of my account. If they actually deposit a free $100 I simply might lever it up on a GBP/JPY short. I'll post back if this thing turns out to be for real.

GBP/ JPY

 

I'm up to $170 with a current short on AUD/USD @ $1.00/pip

It's crazy leverage but I'll ratchet down if I can break the balance above $250ish

 

How long does it take to get $100 after you have registered with okpay and your account has been verified, i'm asking this because it's been 3 days now since the last communication from okpay that my account has been successfully verified but no other follow up email with coupon.
