{quote} The bonus only helps with drawdown in the regard that your effective stop-out is at 0-10% margin instead of 30-50% (or whatever you broker allows) , but you will not be able to drawdown past your accounts original deposit.
So forget that bonus, forget that broker.
I don't promote anything, but take a try with Fortfs.

{quote} Deposit bonuses are shit. I say that from personal experience because it throws off all of your accounting. Risk management is impossible because there's no way to differentiate your balance from the non-tradable deposit bonus. Also, just because the bonus shows as account balance doesn't mean you can use it. If your account runs out of your original funds you cannot continue trading the remainder of the bonus; you are done. The only benefit from a deposit bonus is the tiny rebate you get for each lot, and in reality you're much better off...
I am new to using deposit bonuses, but I still think maybe you are looking at them in the wrong way. For example, with my current broker, if you lose 90% of your initial deposit, they withdraw the bonus at that point. So, this is assuming that your strategy would draw down 90%! If that is the case, you should probably find a new strategy, no? Here's where the bonus is valuable to me: Say I had a 5k account and wanted to risk 1%/trade. That's less $$$ money on my R multiples than if I risked 2% of course. However, if I get a 100% bonus, now I can risk 1% per trade while still making 2% per trade money (aka extra margin as you mentioned)! This is because I am basing my risk on bonus plus initial deposit. Now unless I drawdown 45%, of my total capital (risk plus bonus at which point I lose the bonus) this is working in my favor. Now this way I am not concerned with whether I get the bonus or not, but if I eventually do meet the volume to withdraw it, it will be just that a bonus. Otherwise it is just an extra cushion for margin. I hope that makes sense.

So you're saying that you found a broker that would let you open a trade with bonus money despite the trader no longer having any withdrawable funds?

No, what I am saying is that they will only withdraw the bonus funds once you drawdown to 10% of your initial deposit. So in our $5k example, if you have $5k deposit (your money) and bonus is also $5k (total of $10k) then, the broker will not take away the bonus until you drawdown to $5500 total or $500 of your initial $5k deposit. So that gives you a little under 50% total drawdown before you cannot use their funds anymore at which point you will have more or less blown your account.

Deriv, which has never given bonuses per say, has joined the group too.

Quote
Signing up for a trading account takes about three minutes. Committing to a first real deposit is a different matter. Some traders take weeks to get there. Some never do. Deriv has observed this pattern in its own data long enough to address it. Starting 6 April, traders who create a new Deriv account and make their first wallet-to-MT5 transfer receive a 20% margin credit on that transfer, up to $100.

They have it going on in May too for new sign ups.

Earning money requires more effort, and this also applies to trading. Every broker has terms and conditions when offering bonus programs to its clients. After seeing the results, you'll receive the promised money.
