Thought I would share the below: Large mortgage loans arranged for client with no taxable income Need a large foreign national mortgage? We have the banking contacts to provide a tailored solution where other lenders may not be able to help. To discuss this or any other large or complex...

Agreed it's a struggle, I find lower the volume the more the struggle. Hope our friends across the pond are not sleeping in today.

Volume has collapsed along with my P&L today :cry: we've been averaging 1.2bn a day but today looks like a 600-700m day :(

We exchanged private messages I believe around the time you mention in your post. You may recall my own frustration of having suffered a major loss where I was frustrated as I wasn't making the cheddar that I felt I should be making. You termed it revenge trading and you were right, but...

Agree with you it was exhausting and the result is the broker probably made as much as we did :thumbsdow The battle continues, don't feel we are out of the woods yet.

Worst day this year followed by the best day of the year, hope you guys had lots of fun too!

But it can move side ways for longer than expected.

Good call.

Is it just me or does Mohamed El-Erian sound like Elmer Fudd!

Maybe quick scalp though.
