[MetaQuotes]

New article The Most Active MQL5.community Members Have Been Awarded iPhones! is published:

We have long been planning to encourage the most active MQL5.com participants contributing to the Community development. Therefore, the new rating system has been implemented on the website. Articles, Code Base programs, Service Desk requests - all types of activity increase a user's rating. Thus, the contribution of each Community member has been visualized.

After we decided to reward the most outstanding MQL5.com participants, we have selected the key criteria to determine each participant's contribution to the Community development. As a result, we have the following champions who published the greatest amount of articles on the website - investeo (11 articles) and victorg (10 articles), and who submitted their programs to Code Base – GODZILLA (340 programs), Integer (61 programs) and abolk (21 programs).

The winners have been awarded iPhone 4S touchscreen-based smartphones representing the fifth generation of the device and provided by dual-core chip, iSight camera, HD-Video recording, stunning Retina display, as well as plenty of other features. We sincerely congratulate our winners! Let them tell a bit about themselves.

It would be nice to make another top 100 or top 1000.

What's the point?, there will be everyone who is more than a week on the forum.

Well, at least the Top 10/20/50. It is unlikely that there will be those who only more than a week. And even if so, such a rating is still a good incentive for many.

TOP5, that's fine. And the prizes are appropriate. The rest will have an incentive to repeat the "feat", the main thing that the prizes should be given perioditic and not the same (although on the latter there may be several opinions).

Rankings are nothing :)

Why? 8)

Ranking, for better or worse, measures a person's contribution to the community. That's important.

Another thing is that the cumulative rating does not show the current activity of a person. The rating will become more interesting if it additionally measures a person's performance, his contribution, over a tangible period of time. For example, for the last 7 days. Then the top 10, again for example, would be dynamic and would show the most active in the last 7 days. I don't take into account rating scams, MQs can always put filters against abuse.

GODZILLA (340 programmes) just a flood, indicators are useless in trading

Read "The Way of the Turtles" that Rosh recommended here https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/443. Quote from the book, "The difficulty of trading lies not in the realm of concepts, but in their application". So it's about the dancer, not the accompaniment.

As always, categorical, detached and wrong.

Try to design 3 programmes in CodeBase and you will surely look at the work done by Nikolay Kositsin differently.
