While I was analysing the statistics of forexticket I noticed a strong fall in the number of visitors from many countries since last sunday.
I thought it was an other change in a search engine’s algorithm. But I looked closer where I lost visitors and I can easily concluded that it’s localised in muslim countries.
It’s “Eid-al Adha” from november 6th to the 9th. An important religious day celebrated by muslim.
Eid al-Adha or “Festival of Sacrifice” or “Greater Eid” is an important religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide to commemorate the willingness of Abraham (Ibrahim) to sacrifice his son Ishmael (Isma’il) as an act of obedience to God, before God intervened to provide him with a sheep— to sacrifice instead.
