I've noticed a trader using gold in the trading contest

https://www.dukascopy.com/tradercontest/ ... nhtikeaung

and was wondering, as it does not appear on the demo copy, if this is allowable? and how many others are also using PM to inflate their 'pips expert' performance?

I too noticed that this morning. I initiated/submitted a forum post but it has yet been accepted and posted by Duka reps. I agree that results could be hugely inflated and is also unfair to other traders. Those trades need to be revoked, or Duka should provide everyone else with the same opportunity. Otherwise it is an unfair playing field.

The trader minhtikeaung has been permanently disqualified for unauthorized activities meant to cheat the contest rules.
