    Just because I am in the mood today...

    You misspelled "they let Surf back". :)

    That being said, since this is a low frequency journal with 1 trade, if it was anyone else, there would be 1 page with 2-3 comments. Instead we are at page 12, thus:

    1. Dave's narcissism gets the required attention, so he is happy.
    2. Baron's page view is up, so he is happy.
    3. We get free entertainment, so we are happy.

    It is literally a win-win-win situation!

    How much is 100 points in YM worth, or do you even know, D1 :)

    If ye lot would leave David alone and let him continue with his journal posts, then some people who actually know something about trading might ask him some questions.

    It has been a while since I came across so many ill informed people in the one place. Based on yere replies one can only assume that ye are all in the 20-30 age group, average education, and not too bright when it comes to simple maths.

    The nicks sorta give it away :rolleyes:

    Well, if memory serves, YM is $5 per tick and 1 tick per point?

    So $500 for a 100-point move.

    That is not chump change on 1 contract. Now extrapolate that to people doing 2, 4, or 10 contracts.

    Now what if it's not a YM, but ES. (Remember? That seems to be your favorite instrument in the universe.) That's $12.50 per tick, and 4 ticks = $50 per point. So 100 points in ES would be $5,000. Now extrapolate THAT to 2, 4, or 10 contracts. You MUST treat trading with respect, or it WILL fuck you.

    You dig?

    And you are not too bright by using the term "maths". I can only assume you are a British or Euro citizen that has tried to adopt it here (we're not impressed), an American that thinks it is sophisticated to use that term in the USA, or are a total moron that cannot use proper grammar in the American English vernacular. So by virtue of your use of the term, you have given away something of your history. Bloody wanker you do be.
