Woodhead was at Pyne originally, had one good month, then went back to his normal poor trading. TCA offered him a job as a mentor, which he took, he then 'stole' the TCA idea, failed at that with Headway and is now back at Pyne trading his own money with no backing. He literally just hits the...

My mate who had just been fired (for being crap) sent me a picture message of the warehouse on fire at the Olympic site, probably a couple of years back now. I lifted a load of schatz and the news had yet to be released on the wires. Schatz started ticking lower, I started twitching then it...

I think you can trade news but only things that are unexpected, such as an ECB member dropping a clanger - you jump on the schatz. Other more run of the mill news is often priced in or leaked (ZEW and the Germans springs to mind), so it's barely worth trading it. Stick to the charts; the day...

IMO trade the Bund, more of a technical contract to trade. It has a lot about it in the sense that many other things impact upon it and thus there is a lot to learn, which is great if you're interested in it. "Bund no movement" - WOW! S&P very very choppy, especially with the stops that...
