    Peils Journal 2 (back from blow up) Fundamental Style

    Ok...maybe i should state something...I am not living off my account. By looking at the posts it seems many of you think this. I live well below my means. I save between 25% to 50% of my gross income every month, so this trading account will not affect my lifestyle so no need to worry that i...
