Funny how I am getting offers of late (May and June) for reduced fees for signals, courses etc from traders that are educaters as well. Real trading is tough at the moment. Yes the 30 day limit would be a hard one if volatility is required for that ...

Thanks Dave. Never assume there's no interest. Just don't come here much at the moment and kind of prefer to do the reading well after the post kind of thing. Trawling through the threads when time permits. All the best.
