We now also have the JUN11 FINI.Quite the hot-rod and only R9k per contract.9x leverage.Makes it quite attractive versus the ALSI,which costs far more per said contract and 10x leverage.## Hope the ALSI reaches 29200.I need 4 Short at/above for the Big Ride down.The Big Ride down.The Big Ride down...

prancing horse:Hi there.Gld made me some honest money.I've switched to the ALSI (since March).It's faster.It's working.And it's....exciting,like leaning over Niagara Falls and just breathing in all that ...death(heh).I use the Zarp Method.(don't ask.).It involves tinfoil hats and special frequencies,etc.Anyway,good trading out there.This Piranha has to swim to Disinfo Gorge and disseminate the latest noise.A flick 'o the tail....he's gone.
