Hello,

Community is on its way of restructuring and you might have noticed that its look changed drastically having got a new flexible design that suits all types of screen sizes. The external part of restructuring is almost done and it is time to start the internal changes to bring Community to the new level. Since concept of most trading contests on DEMO accounts has exhausted itself, Dukascopy management decided to launch the new contests on LIVE accounts instead of the following DEMO contests:

• Trader contest;
• Signal Provider Grand Prix contest;
• Trader of the year contest;
• Social trading contest;
• Binary options contest;
• Touch options contest.

August is the last month for the contests mentioned above. The first four contests on dedicated LIVE accounts are expected to be launched in the late September/early October, and will be conducted on a weekly basis with prizes free of any turnover limitations. More contests may follow later, additional information will be provided closer to the launch date.

Some non-trading contests from the list below will be discontinued as well, starting from September:

• Article contest;
• Technical analysis contest;
• 911 contest;
• Dukat contest;
• Extreme contest.

Strategy and Fundamental analysis contests continue their run but with a new prize fund and prize distribution logic: 15 000 USD per 10 winners monthly and 1 500 USD per 5 winners weekly respectively as of September.

Miss Dukascopy contest is not affected by the changes as well as Community Predictions contest. Decision regarding seasonal contests will be taken later.

Dukascopy is thankful to all Community participants who took part in the earlier mentioned contests and hope you will find the new LIVE contests fun and worth participating.

Regards,
Community team
