Where is this question from? I don't particularly like any of the solutions.

A is completely out ('no' should be 'not', for starters).
B is out because 'to ignore' is not parallel with 'pay'.
C is the best, but "still" is rather awkward here.
D is semantically saying something different i.e. that the analyst did not suggest something.
E is all over the place; for one thing, it's again semantically different -- here, the analyst is commenting on the behaviour of the traders as opposed to giving them advice.

This question deals with the issue of the SUBJUNCTIVE.
Here is the information concerning the subjunctive from an earlier thread:
https://www.beatthegmat.com/what-is-subj ... tml#479468
Kasia@MasterGMAT wrote:The subjunctive is a special kind of present tense which has no -s in the third person singular. It is used in that-clauses in a formal style after words which express the idea that something is important or desirable (e.g. suggest, recommend, ask, insist, vital, essential, important, advice). The same forms are used in both present and past sentences.

e.g. It is essential that every child have the same educational opportunities.
We felt it was important that James write to uncle Arthur as soon as possible.
Our advice is that the company invest in new equipment.
The judge recommended that Simmons remain in prison for at least three years.

Do is not used in negative subjunctives.
e.g. We considered it desirable that he not leave school before finishing his exams.

Be has special subjunctive forms: I be, you be, etc.
e.g. It is important that Helen be present when we sign the papers.
As to this particular question:
A - the verb "ignore" should not be preceded by "to." "To" is omitted in the subjunctive.
B - the same problem as in answer A
C - correct
D - wordy and awkward
E - unnecessary change of tense - incorrect

To indicate contrast we need but. Analyst suggested two things and those two needs to be in parallel. We need second 'that' to indicate that analyst suggested those two things.

A. Wrong. The stuff after 'but' doesn't contain any verb. Also we need 'that' for parallelism.

B. And doesn't indicate contrast.

C. Looks good. Second 'that' shows that Analyst suggested two things, and 'but' shows the contrast.

D. Same as B

E. Present Continuous is not correct to indicate a suggestion. We need simple tense.
