From Agustin Silvani's book : "Beat the Forex Dealer"
These tickled me
Peter Young: Morgan Grenfell's star trader is not best remembered for his unauthorised trades (a mere $350m), but the fact that he showed up to court wearing women's clothes in an attempt to plead insanity. Seems like Young got the last laugh since the court declared him unfit for trial!
1998: Perhaps the most classic blunder of all time was made by a now-infamous Salomon trader who is said to have accidently sold £850m worth of French government bonds.....simply by leaning on his keyboard
:cheesy:
