On the website of the Automated Trading Championship 2008, an Interview with Thomas Bopp has been published. For the last year, Thomas became a guest on a special TRADERS' TV and even started hosting his own shows. Now he spends most of his time on analytical work and thinks that: "Option zones show you sometimes more than technical analysis, because you can see the important areas where the big money defends or hedges its open positions. This is not available in existing software products. It is all made manually. For example, my studies have shown that the extreme points are always around the option expiry. If you just look at the euro, the major turning points are often on the last three days around the options expiry day."

Yes, personally im very interested in this too. In this year we are expect that it will be near 1 thousand participants. Recently we started automated EA checking (1 step of participants checking) and only 25% of them go through - only one of fourth didnt contained errors. All the rest have to make some corrections in their EA. The experience of two previous ATCs shows me that the registration speed will increase near the end of Registration Stage. So lets wait... Have a nice day.

I have a genuine question. Of the 1000 participants,how many make a profit? Is it a handful that make a fortune,most are small up/small down and the rest are disaster zones?Kind of like an office with non-automated traders in it. I'd really appreciate it if you could post some facts from last year's tournament - it would be interesting to see how well automated traders actually do as a group rather than just hearing about a few who hit a home run.
