But for the fact that everyone knows your base currency is Zimbabwean dollars, we would be impressed.

Done +10k - taken profit and then gone for reversal and lost the £10k all within a day. Also had a £17k position within 10 pips of being 0 before returning to £20k - that was within 2 hrs I believe.

Nothing to write hom about here(around £800 max loss from memory), but my dad regularly had +/- £25k days.

Fair enough mate

When you next down for a nice meal in one of my clubhouses to lord it over the lower classes?

wasn't trading as such, but worst 'result" was backing a 33 to 1 winner only to lose the winnings by doubling up on a "sure thing" - backing the odds-on university boat race team that sank :-(

worst of all, I would probably have been riding the 33 to 1 winner if I hadn't broken a toe a week earlier on the gallops

+2900 Long eurusd in March '09,

-4400 short ES on a bad trade where I doubled up on a short, got distracted by a phone call and completely forgot about the trade. OUCH.

Lost $4,000 in an hour trying to catch a falling knife when I bought Facebook shares as they dropped on their Opening Day. Haven't traded them since and was glad I had a tight stop.

I'd cry if I lost some of the amounts you lot have. The most I've lost in 1 day is just under £200 and I was gutted, I'm an incredibly tight git when it comes to money. The most I've gained in 1 day is also about £200.
