Anyone free for a drink in the London area?

If you've got some time to spare I'd like to gather some folk and I'll buy a couple of drinks for your thoughts. This is not marketing--I don't want to know your contact details or anything but I would like your opinion.

I'm doing some researching in to financial spread betting-- more specifically spread betters in fact. I would love to hear your thoughts on spreads and platforms, but most of all--what got you into it and what makes you want to to do it.

Message me if you fancy it.

Thanks and best,

Hugh

Hello Hugh

Simple question....why ?

cheers

Of course CV. It's nothing too sinister, this is research I'm doing on behalf of an investment company. They are interested in the SB biz, and I guess they want to know what the spread traders make of things right now to get a better feel for prospects in the sector. They are looking for a sample of opinion from folk that trade on financial spread betting at any level. And naturally, the best people to ask about it are those that do it.

They are not competitors in the field, so are not interested in clients details--it's purely to help inform their investment decision. I'll gladly cast more light if you like on the night if you fancy popping along for a drink.

I hope it will be fun for a few spread traders to get together anyway and catch up with each other and compare notes.

It would be great if you and a few others could make it then I'll try and figure the most convenient time and place.
 
you can always spot a trader a mile off. any sort of edge/freebie huh Arabian? ;)

It depends if we can catch the Wetherspoons happy hour or not. OK, so I didn't want to over promise in these cautious times, especially if there was an avalanche of interest. Promising free beer to people to talk about themselves is more risk than I can manage. But I'll see what I can do and I will buy some drinks.

I hope you can come along.

Hi Hugh,

It sounds as though it would be an interesting evening. I live in London so, add me to the list please.
 
Great. How about Wednesday (25th)? About 7pm?

If anyone has a prefrence of venue or area let me know, otherwise I'll try and think of somewhere central.
 
Hugh... in your original post you mention spread trading and spread betting...

Ah, I'm only looking for spread betters. At any level from the most amatuer dabblers to people that make a living at it. Sorry for the confusion
 
Hugh, arabianights is about as much use to you as a flaccid wank. He just wants the free beer.
