yes, I was. ooer... are they not the same people? Crikey, I think I feel a libel action coming on.. Time to hedge... bummer MT

Ahhh. Excellent. I havent wanted to own up to this, but I had a couple of real bummer days after a few good ones a week or so back. So I have gone back to paper for a while. I am still a newbie and am not yet in profit regularly (though I am showing a small overall profit for the past 4 months)...

hrmmm. a few weeks ago I spoke to Aussie called Mark at Cranfield. Had to ring twice because the little rascal didnt return my call the first time. Got the gen on their trading room club (200 seats only). He seemed pretty reasonable so I agreed to a trial - he asked me to email him (as a...

right, thats me out for today. A nice 90 pips in 3 lumps. Be nice to do that every day... MT
