I have started April Trader Contest with winning GBP/USD (3M) and losing GBP/CHF (3M) trade, but I am in another potentially promising GBP/USD (2.5M) trade, which I intend to hold for at least 200 pips. It all depends on whether USD pullback will continue after weak payrolls number. By all logic, it should, but one can never be sure, so I'll be moving SL to around break-even early on Monday.

I narrowly missed top 10 position in March Binary Option Contest as set of options that would have put me there expired just one pip out-of-the-money. More luck next time! As in Trader Contest, I'm still working on a trading plan for this contest.

I ended up on 7th place in February Technical Analysis Contest. I wasn't on the initial winners list, because evaluators mistakenly overlooked my updates (comments) to my predictions and I was given zero bonus points (later corrected to 8 points). Here's the prediction (https://www.dukascopy.com/fxcomm//technical_analysis/?action=blog&nickname=al_dcdemo&post_id=44093#article). Big thanks to Dukascopy and supporters!

I managed to sneak into top 20 of the Dukat Contest standings just before Q1 ended (according to GMT), by betting on USD/JPY decline after weaker than expected Tankan report, using five minute put option. I financed that bet by linking social accounts just before that, as I didn't want to lose top 30 position. I expected more action in the last minutes before the end of the contest period, but most of contestants were either happy with their position and/or were sleeping (perhaps this was the best trade). I'm still not sure whether the standings table at April 1 00:00 reflected correct order, but we'll find soon enough as results will be published.
