Hi Vick. Yes, dates... I think, well. But to find girl who will be able to listen to forex and trading etc... it is a slight problem. My ex.gf was able to listen...and she understood. So it is now difficullt to find somebody with her qualities... Regards

I was thinking the improvement from less than 5% improved to be 5%, you even more greedy--let the 5% holding 30% accounts

I still think my case is more probable. But belonging to the 30%, I would expect that you know better

If it's TAF family holding the 5% accounts, maybe the total loss can be rescued and come out with profit

Imo it is not question for them to manipulate.
- If it is 90% unsuccesfull, i will thing "How good and talented of course i am".
- If it is 10% unsuccesfull, i will be sure "How great this bussiness is".

If I'm not mistaken Oanda reports on the last time period reported..... those 46% while profitable for the quarter or month, what ever time frame is being refferenced, may be in the red overall.

I'm not positive on that, but I remember reading something to that fact awhile back.

Fwiw, I like Oanda, only had a couple o problems that they handled quickly and professionally.
