Three months have passed since the first day of registration for the Automated Trading Championship 2010. During this time, we have received applications from 1 200 people. A similar number of applications was recorded in 2007, when 7 days were left before the end of the registration. However, potential participants of the current Championship have a three times longer period ahead - three weeks. Nevertheless, please send your Expert Advisor and fill out the the information in the participation form as soon as possible.
Despite the fact that we have extended the registration for a month as compared to the past Championships, the number of applications started to grow only now, on the very eve of the Championship. This may lead to the fact that we may have not enough time to check Expert Advisors and participants. So some of participants may be left behind the competition.
"I'd like to ask everyone wishing to participate in the Championship to send their developments as soon as possible, - Stanislav Starikov, the ATC 2010 Jury Member says. - There is little time left before the end of registration, and it will be pity if anyone fails to complete the last stage not having time for that".

At the moment, half of the registered participants haven't filled out fields with closed private information. This means that these developers will not be allowed to participate in the Championship. Please remember that you are required to fill out all the fields on the registration form. Otherwise, developers can't participate at the Automated Trading Championship 2010.

Agree. Same here (about visual mode ST and holiday too).
Hello... MT5 v. 5.00 Build 319 (02 Sep 2010) is about 10 times slower than previous "Builds", as was Build 316, and it gets even slower for long backtesting periods.
Pls fix this bug ASAP. Thank you.
Never mind... I've just found that if "HistorySelect(0,TimeCurrent())" is only called by OnInit() -and not by OnTick()- then the speed gets back to normal. So, I leave this comment here for all participants to know...

I believe you have compiled some other EA (namely che_2010_mv), instead of Anaktan v. 1.2 that I've uploaded... Anaktan runs on 1-min timeframes (unlike che_2010_mv which runs on 4-hour charts) and is not multicurrency (while che_2010_mv is obviously such). Besides, the performance of the latter is amazing, by far better than Anaktan's... I wish che_2010_mv was mine!!
