Because it is easy to go back after the fact and cherry pick the trades one would want so support whatever argument they are trying to make, which hopefully would be an honest one. BTW, I am long 5k on the FAS from thir morning (55.01) and made book this morning (out at 58)!!! (see how...

that you're an immature child.

and you continue to prove my point.

If you want to be taken seriously, just post without the use of these childish emoticons. It betrays your age and maturity level.

By chance was this JohnG? Big world and all, but JohnG was a regular poster over on DailyFx before it got polluted and what you said above was his approach to option trading the currencies and gold. He offered some great insight to trading the GBP pairs.

If you only want to trade 10k lots (which IB does not offer) then I am sure you can take a couple hundred from your pile of cash and open another fx account somewhere else without it affecting your overall trading, no? If you hate the TWS or FX Trader, use another front end like Buttontrader...

You were soooo right. What a shitty call by increasenow. :D I bet he's alredy moved his stops to b.e. Bonehead
