The Automated Trading Championship 2007 Is Over!

12 weeks of the most interesting, most exciting event in the world of automated trading - the Automated Trading Championship 2007 have passed. The competition is over, all Expert Advisors have been stopped. It's time to acclaim the Winners and hand them their prizes.

1. The first place in the Automated Trading Championship 2007 was taken by Olexandr Topchylo (Better) from Ukraine. Olexandr participated in Championship 2006, but without success. Having learned all lessons of the preceding contest, Olexandr won by a head this year. He held the first line in the Top Ten table during five weeks. Olexandr will get the award of The First Place in the Automated Trading Championship 2007 and the prize of 40 000 dollars from ODL Securities Limited. Congratulations, Olexandr!
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
   
2. The second place was the subject of the really earnest struggle during the last several weeks. So this place was taken by the Participant from the United States of America, William Boatright (wackena), with his 55 thousand dollars just one day before the end of the contest. He supposes timeframes coded in his Expert Advisor to make the latter one more reliable. William will get the award of The Second Place in the Automated Trading Championship 2007 and 25 000 dollars from Alpari (UK) Limited. Congratulations, William!
    
    
    
    
    
    
   
3. The third place was taken by Vasiliy Lavrinenko (PegasMaster) from Ukraine. His Expert Advisor, Pegas, slowly but surely went to the top of the table of Participants and entered Top Ten only the last several weeks. Though the EA went rather surely, its profit was far below that of the leaders. However, the Expert Advisor managed to add nearly 10 thousand dollars to its balance and take the third place on the last day of the Championship. Vasiliy will get the award of The Third Place in the Automated Trading Championship 2007 and 15 000 dollars from FXDD. Congratulations, Vasiliy!
   

We would like to thank all the Participants and Sponsors of the Automated Trading Championship 2007 and wish a very happy and successful New Year!
