There's nothing to review with regard to Trader Contest as I'm already done for the month and am waiting for the next contest.
I narrowly missed entering top 15 in Binary Contest. The first bet (all bets were full-margin) was a bit of a gamble as I placed it just minutes before the Australian CPI, betting on a solid report. The second one was on the post-release pullback and was also successful. The third was in the morning after hawkish BOE minutes. The fourth was counter-trend and I was very lucky with this one as the pullback proved to be very shallow and in the middle of the strong trend. The fifth was again counter-trend, but appeared to be a much higher probability on a clearly overdone stop-run above 1.5050. I just wasn't patient enough to wait for clear confirmation of the short-term top and instead entered with minimum duration options, hoping that the spike will be faded immediately - it wasn't. It was a good lesson though that I will remember.
I took 20th place in Fundamental Analysis Contest. Not a prize position, but will get some Dukats for it.
