MetisEtrade’s Happy Trading Hours Has a New Champion for November

Wazzup Pilipinas!

MetisEtrade held the Happy Trading Hours November Finals at their head office in Fort Bonifacio Global City. The new defending top trader was announced to be Gabriel Vergara (14.8% gains), dethroning Robert Escano who was the monthly champion in October.

Happy Trading Hours is a weekly financial event conceptualized to cater for trading enthusiasts. HTH happens every Friday, during the hours when the financial market moves the most. This infotainment (information with entertainment) is a combination of a seminar and a demo competition - to educate the basics of volatile fx trading.

The 12 teams that participated can only trade Gold, Oil, EURUSD, and SPX500 where each member of the team can trade at least 3 times with only one instrument out of the four. Ryan Basa’s team (14.9% gains) was disqualified from winning the title due to a minor mistake in trading SPX.


Gabriel Vergara’s team (Raymund Eugenio, Ivy Lorena Penalba, Jonathan Alvarez, and the leader Gabriel Vergara) coming in at close second was then declared as winner. Gabriel will be defending his title against December contenders on the quarterly finals on January 3, 2013 to secure his spot for the Grand Finals (Oct 3, 2014).

Team Gabriel topped in trading both Gold (120.7%) and EURUSD (21.62%) while Team Marc Mancilla displayed the highest profitability in trading Oil (12.7%) and SPX (-0.04%).
