You know, I actually like the Rolling Stones' version of "Just My
Imagination (Runnin' 'Way With Me)" better than the original...but
keep making me money, "kid"...

A what?!??!!

Kind of like that 13% haircut you've taken on your life savings ($347)
in that Canadian bank of yours in the last few months...of course, the
"loonie" lost just a little more than the Euro vs. the US dollar today,
usually
it loses a LOT more...

You shorted what?!??!!

Yeah, where have I heard that before...oh yeah, from you, it was the
reason you gave for not trading oil futures anymore a few weeks ago...
But in your rich imagination, anything is possible, I guess, such as
taking a "break-even" on a short oil trade on a day when oil rose 1.42%...
> Overall, a very good day.
If you wake up in the morning with dry diapers, it's a rare great day...
Anyway, for the benefit of the spam-bots in this (on-topic) group,
could you please list the EXACT contracts you're fake-trading...I don't
know what a "EURO" is, and somehow I doubt your online broker
lists futures contracts by terms like "Halloween" and "Labor Day",
even in YOUR rich imagination...
