InstaForex star Ole Einar Bjørndalen wins bronze at biathlon world championship



On February 12, Norwegian biathlete and InstaForex brand ambassador Ole Einar Bjorndalen took the bronze in the pursuit race at the world championship 2017 in Hochfilzen.

This day is especially memorable for the renowned biathlete because his wife Darya Domracheva, a successful biathlete from Belarus, came in the second best in the same discipline. Interestingly, they have been the first couple since 2004 who won medals at a world championship on the same day.

Competing in winter tournaments since 1997, Ole Einar Bjorndalen has always won a crop of trophies in every event. Throughout his career, his tally of awards contains 45 medals at the biathlon world championships and 13 medals at the Winter Olympic Games. He scored his first major victory 20 years ago.

First non-trading contest with fantastic surPRIZES by InstaForex



For the first time ever, InstaForex kicks off a truly unique contest – Match Hero. Unlike other InstaForex competitions, this one does not involve trading at all! Match Hero is a contest for football fans with passion of true players.

What is so unique about this contest?

For more than two years, InstaForex has partnered with the legendary Liverpool, a Premier League association football club. Now the company gives an opportunity to guess the best player of the match before the start of each game (the contest period includes 14 games). Moreover, the contestants have four attempts to guess the player which means that you can get up to 4 points in each match.

This summer we will sum up the results and determine two winners: one - among traders with the biggest score, and another one - among LFC players with the best performance.

And the icing on the cake is a fully paid trip to the one of the LFC matches in Asia for the contest winner. He will give the prize for the best football player in front of the whole stadium.

Moreover, the top ten participants will be awarded with such great prizes as all-expenses-paid trips to Liverpool matches of the Premier League (including the VIP tickets), LFC merchandise with the players' autographs, as well as bonus trading accounts with a $1,000 deposit.

Dont waste your time with Instaforex. They will only steal your money. Somehow they know how to offset your margin. when you want to save your position by placing an opposite trade, their server will be busy and you will not be able to do anything but just watch your account die. I have first hand experience losing USD9000. when I talked to yvonne, she is useless and cant do anything about it. their super customer service will ignore your case and you will need to follow up countless times. they will never admit its their mistake.

my best advice to my fellow crypto currency traders, you can even believe all the crypto trading brokers but never Instaforex. You will be only asking for trouble. Forex company exploiting woman for promotion. Becareful.
