Those op's are definitely a challenge. Stay positive... that shit only gets worse for days. A shot or two of Jack at bedtime helps.

Forgot to mention my small EA win this week, I'll not be retiring on it anytime soon but useful for monitoring DIV performance.
Sounds like a lot of screen time to me.

Was not really good... problem with IBEX is the spread...even IG or Tickmill >9 Points... not tradable in my view. May be some spain insider now better places with smaller spread? -..

I have to check quotes/spreads tomorrow on ibex...afterhours could be problem but they pay after close time so spread problem still exists then, at least for payment day. Found one broker with 6 points currently... not really attractive still

Keeps you in the trade for the real move
