ATC 2007 Checking EAs

 

I read this posting in the Russian mql4 forum. This is a AltaVista Bagel Fish (Russian to English) translation of that posting.

Why not simultaneously post English version of this important ACT 2007 information?

If before September 21, some results are published and some are not, will this not give advantage to participants who have results published?
