In the first week of the October Trader Contest I took one trade only, GBP/USD long (1M). In hindsight I may have gone in slightly bigger but it was a low probability entry taken mid-channel and counter-trend on early Friday with a tight SL below Asian session low and ahead of the NFP to boot. I intent to hold it for at least 200 pips.

I won the August Technical Analysis Contest by a single point advantage ahead of the closest competitor. My accuracy was second best but I got enough quality and bonus points to cover the gap. This was my most accurate prediction so far and I consider it very good given uncertainty that was going on at the time I posted it. I'd like to thank to Dukascopy and all DFC members that supported me.

Here's the link to the prediction: https://www.dukascopy.com/fxcomm/technical_analysis/?action=blog&nickname=al_dcdemo&post_id=64364#article

I ended up on 10th place of the September Daily Stock Option Contest. I took four bets and all of them ended up in the money. I regularly monitor global stock indices because they are a great gauge of broader market sentiment. This contest is a great opportunity to become familiar with the world's most traded stocks.

I wish all participants good luck and happy trading in the new contest month!
