Observation: this is just my personal figure out based on ATC 2012 participants country research.

 

My forecast:

  • Indonesia, Multi-currency or scalping, >165k (250k max)
  • Russian Federation, Neural or trend, 165k
  • Japan, Multi-currency or the way of the samurai (something new that we have never seen before, tipical japanese), 120k

I'm very optimistic this year as i've seen EAs with very good performance in backtesting and participants that have probed their brightness before and their knowledge in the forums. I'm pretty sure that you can find a bunch of the smartests minds in the world right here.

Thanks to all participants for making this competition interesting and much fun! The ATC is one of my greatest/funniest moments in the year (it's better than xmas). I learn a lot every time.

 

Russia rules with leading competitors at the top five positions.

Hi figurelli.

I'm still optimistic Multi-currency EA will be champions.

Good luck for all.

Hi achidayat,

I do agree with you, my question was just an perspective in that field.

Take a look at Wahoo ( https://championship.mql5.com/2012/en/users/Wahoo ) for example. At this moment, 3th place and just 12.45% of relative drawdown, showing a brilliant technician and the advantage of multi-currency for hedge and long time competition like this.

Your EA looks very resilient and with competitive money management too.

In my opinion, just after 6 weeks we will see the really stable strategies and setups, and maybe the better time to multi-currencies EAs.

Thanks for sharing and good luck!
