Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Just heard some Troika rubbish now. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Still hanging at the beach...getting a whole lot of nothing done. They "may" this...and "might" that. I guess as long as the words "default" or "haircut" don't appear in the word cloud...everything's good in the hood.
hehe,

did you see that the trading championship started this week?

All the EAs I have made needs manual adjustment, but I would have sent one in if it wasn't for the restriction to only MT5
Its interesting when they work out though...

did you see t hat number Challenger Job Cuts y/y 211% ...lol. Thankfully is a weak indicator. I any case, ADP will start the real deal in US employment before NFP and hopefully will get something tradable today.

always a bit dubious about them, i think they encourage bad risk exposure and money management habits and there always seems to be one guy who's up a 100k in the first week...

Right, right.

Wasn't there one a couple years ago, too...MT4, though? I heard it did incredibly well. It won...they started selling it commercially. Then it turned out that it was the FAPT (sp?) Turbo guys...and it used martingale...as in...got on a lucky roll during the competition. Afterward...not so much. Oooops...cheque's in the mail.
