I noticed that in the overall rankings for contest, that there are quite of competitors that have not placed trades in march contest, what happens in their case, are they disqualified?

Nothing.
Their unused trading accounts get automatically blocked at the end of the month. Right as any other accounts. Those users may as well register to the next contest and receive the new trading credentials.

No grounds for disqualification.

It seems that you are confusing 2 different contests - the Trader contest and the JForex strategy contest. The information above was related to the Trader contest, which is a competition of manual trading (https://www.dukascopy.com/tradercontest/)

The forum for the strategy contest is here: viewforum.php?f=21

Are this a new rule ! or i miss it in contest rules? I just read that it said it need to run at least 10 days. And then, I just finished a stragety a hour ago and prepare to run. But i found i can't run stragety on that account !? after check this post and i know why. Well, so what i can do now ,is to join next month contest. My stragety is not good ,but there is another point, i hope at least i can fews hours or fews days,the feeling is totally different. Forex Int Andrew Chen

The warning messages on Strategy contest accounts was appearing erroneously.
