Well, I didn't make 30k in two days, but I did just read Catch 22.

 

If it's who I think it is that's nothing short of amazing.

Hope he can keep it up and it's a long time before he hits the wall.

Good trading

 

Are these CME FX futures?
How come he never paid any commission?

 

I don't think it's futures, there is no contracts listed. "Commissions" come out of the spread.

 

Spot/dealer FX.

 

Amazing.

He's swinging some big leverage there @ 10% risk per trade.

I believe its 100% doable, tho.

 

Well, with atticus coaching him, hell to the yeah!

 

I didn't know Atticus was the big swinging dick in FX.

Cool man. Maybe he can teach me a few things???

 

FWIW, I had nothing to do with the performance of this account.
