  7. Others will know better than me as i spend all my time in the ES forum, but I think Spanish has got a job in a security firm or something? Probably hasn't got time to trade.

    I might join you next week for some oil trades. I've hit my modest daily target of £150 already today and am now off to the pub for a bit!

    Good luck all

  10. @IV

    yeah, i used to go in and out of trades trying to time it. i find whenever i try to time a trade to save 10-20c i end up getting out at the wrong time and would've been much better just staying along for the ride. you know what i mean? i guess what i'm trying to say is, i'm trying to change my trading style.
