Weekly trading contest with an eye on year end

We had the big risk event in the FOMC last week which made the compo more of a lottery than it was before. By sheer genius (or blind guessing) the fight for the top was very close.

  1. Mike P 150 pips
  2. Chris 179
  3. Sanjay 208

Well done to Mike P who comes out of nowhere to take the title followed by Chris and former champ Sanjay. Unfortunately Elias would have taken 2nd spot but came in after the deadline as did Azerbaijan who needs to learn to type faster as he missed the cut off by 19 seconds.

Once again the winners curse strikes and Tom S slides into the middle of the table.

Adam gets bragging rights in the office this week putting some miles in between himself and I, who was mostly banking on a no-taper. Mike and Eamonn obviously decided that they we’re no match for my superiority at finishing mid table and made their excuses and left

;-)

The wooden spoon passes hands from Blessedman01 to Clinton Dawkins but it was a tight finish between him and Nick Walker.

I’m going to run it slightly different this time and I’m looking for the 2013 year end close prices as of the close 31 December, and as Adam is on a coach and unable to stop me, there’s going to be a fantabulous ForexLive t-shirt up for grabs for the winner.

Give us your estimates for the following pairs prices for the 31 Dec close.

  1. USD/JPY
  2. EUR/USD
  3. AUD/USD
  4. GBP/USD

Numbers and reasons welcome.

Deadline for the compo is going to be 17.00 gmt Friday 27th December.
