For the third month , a player manipulate average losing pips to win more dukaspoints and get rewarded with number 1 place.Since there are no reactions from Dukascopy , I believe that it's allowed to manipulate statistics .I encourage every player to do that just to have same chance to win .This is truly unfair but it seems to work ,and if you are fair against cheaters you will lose all the time .
We need a clear reply from dukascopy please

seems so.

you mean this contest is a waste of time for newbiez??

Oh god forbid that someone who manages to blow past everyone in pips and performance in a forex competition wins number one.

Are you some kind of joke?

The mere fact that there is a numerical system of evaluating ones trading in the competition encourages everyone to trade in a manner such that they maximize their points(as thats what I was doing).

I did not break one rule with what I did(I think you should have a read on the rules). And in fact I had to lose pips and equity to get dukascopy points, it wasn't as if it was some free points.

Do you really think people use conditional orders with a majority of their trades? Or close their trades by moving SL's to levels that already execute? Or have a bunch of redundant 10 pip SL trades with .001 M equity? Or keep their SL's at -1 pip when they have a trade running in profit to protect their capital?

I was among the very few traders last month that actually bothered to trade with full leverage during the last week and try to get as many pips and high equity as possible. Everyone else was just focusing on their redundant 10 pip SL trades with .001M equity and conditional orders.

The best that dukascopy could do about it is to make sure that the point system is fair and follows the methodology stated.

Please get a life. You're just a jealous hater.

By the way, why dont you bother giving out your identity? Let me guess, you've been in this contest for the past 6 months and have blown up every month. And have found someone whose actually a good trader to hate on. Right?

Also, I don't see how its unfair. When a) everyone can do it and has been doing it. So... Where's your argument at? Oh wait, you probably don't the brain to process the subtle manipulations that everyone else does.

Unfortunately Dukascopy makes rules but at the same time apply very little efforts to make anybody actually follow them. As it is said here in Russia "The stricteness of our laws is compensated by their not obligatory execution". Now, if you don't spam everyone and don't manipulate dukaspoints you will not get to top places. I'm sure that many people use dirty tricks because they are forced to. You either do what other contestants do or you will be under a heavy heavy handicap. Until there is no punishment, there is no law.

Come on... Dont be so exact  with all these contest rules.

Rahul makes an outstanding performance, and when he does not trade according to the dukas expectations, why should he not tweak a flawed system to his advantage to pretend like he would trade according to that what dukas expects to be good trading?

Obviously they dont penalize him. I guess dukas  knows why they are doing this. Without this evaluation crap he would win anyway. So what?

That´s life. The clever boys win and the honest boys lose. Learn that lesson and improve to that which is called winner mentality.
