At 00:00 on April 11, the final position was closed.
For a brief moment, the room held still.
Then the final picture came into focus.
The #DooTrader International Cup 2026: The Island Showdown, hosted by D Prime, had reached its conclusion in Bali. What began as a high-stakes gathering of elite traders across five nations had now delivered a single defining result.
After 48 hours of live competition, one trader rose above the rest.
Trader X of China secured victory in the final showdown among the top six, demonstrating exceptional risk control and precise market execution to claim the $150,000 championship title — the highest honor of the event.
From Opening Round to Final Stage
#DooTrader International Cup 2026 Narrows to the Final Six
The road to the Grand Final was anything but straightforward.
Five traders earned their place through performance, advancing from the preliminary round, the Midnight Comeback, and the semi-finals.
The sixth arrived through global support, voted in by tens of thousands of viewers as the Most Popular Trader.
Different paths. Different pressures.
All converging on one stage in Bali.
The Final Test Under Pressure
#DooTrader International Cup 2026 Delivers a 120-Minute Final Trading Showdown
Trader X continues his comeback run, surging past 250% return to claim the $150,000 title.
The Grand Final of the #DooTrader International Cup 2026 officially began at 22:00 on April 10.
Inside the trading arena stood six finalists:
- Trader X, who secured direct entry after topping the preliminary round
- Chun Zhixiao and Farahalil, advancing from the Elite Group
- Sheng Sheng Sheng, another Elite Group qualifier
- Gavin, who fought his way through the Breakout Round
- Faiqforex, the fan-voted Most Popular Trader
Under full live broadcast, the six traders entered a two-hour trading showdown, where every decision unfolded in real time.
First Half: Chun Zhixiao Breaks Early Momentum
As the session began, Chun Zhixiao was the first to find rhythm.
With sharp market reading and decisive execution, his return quickly surpassed the 100% mark, establishing an early lead.
In contrast, Trader X remained relatively quiet in the opening phase.
Positioned lower on the leaderboard, he showed no urgency.
Instead, he waited.
Patiently.
For the precise market conditions required to activate his ultra-short-term EA-driven strategy.
Second Half: Trader X Turns the Market in Minutes
As momentum in XAUUSD became clear, the pace of the competition shifted.
Trader X moved decisively.
Activating his EA strategy, he began scaling into positions with precision. Within a short span, his return surged by 100%, rapidly closing the gap with Chun Zhixiao.
Then came the turning point.
In less than 10 minutes, his performance doubled again.
Returns exceeded 200%, pushing him firmly into the lead.
Pressure Builds, the Field Breaks
Trader X’s aggressive and controlled surge reshaped the entire field.
Under pressure to recover, several competitors began forcing trades.
Mistakes followed.
At one point, all remaining traders, except Trader X, saw drawdowns exceeding 50%, leaving him as the only trader still in profit.
A Late Push, But Not Enough
As the competition entered its final phase, the market stabilised.
Chun Zhixiao and Gavin managed to recover, returning to profitability and re-entering the top three. Chun Zhixiao, in particular, pushed his return back above 100%, narrowing the gap once again.
For a moment, the possibility of another last-minute reversal emerged.
But this time, it did not come.
Attempts to regain the lead led to overexposure.
Positions moved against them.
Both traders fell back into negative territory.
No Last-Minute Miracle
In earlier rounds, the competition had seen dramatic reversals in the final moments.
This time, the outcome held.
No final-minute turnaround.
No disruption to the lead.
A Champion Performance, From Start to Finish
Trader X closed the session with a remarkable 253% return, while maintaining maximum drawdown at approximately 21%.
It was a performance defined by precision, control, and timing.
Not a moment of luck but a continuation of the same fast, decisive, and disciplined approach that defined his run from the preliminary stage.
#DooTrader International Cup 2026 Crowns Its Champion
With a dominant performance from start to finish, Trader X of China was crowned champion of the #DooTrader International Cup 2026, claiming the $150,000 grand prize.
