the article should be removed from the list or even banned permanently. if his article is not removed, he will get more views, profiles, etc & he will move up due to an article which is against the rules of the competition.

AdrianWS is not only promoting other websites, the images in his article is a direct lift from the website

which is against the spirit of the dukascopy contest. Please remove this cheater.

Dukascopy,

This is Adrian but I have problems logging in so I cannot post from a named account. You can email for verification if you need.

I understand the confusion that has been caused by me posting a link in my most recent article titled "Fundamental Analysis - Part I - The basics".

I only posted that through my best interests for the Dukascopy community and did not intend to be in breach of any regulation or to promote it in anyway.

Because of this I hope that you could possibly -Delete- the Article and allow me to -Repost- it thus amending the aforementioned problem. I hope this can be arranged as I think it would be slightly unfair to Virtually disqualify me from this months competition through a mere accident.

I Apologize for any inconvenience caused by my mistake and hope we can rectify this.

Adrian.

Returned back to status of draft. To avoid such speculations, you can use snippets of Dukascopy charts. P.S. We also have an economic calendar. https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english/ ... /economic/
