On a related note, Twitter doesn't provide updates via SMS here in Australia, so I have joined twitSMS to catch any intraday updates you might send. Missed the one from two days ago where you exited your long positions ... and by the end of that session I had dropped a very nice profit. Also glad to see you are migrating to your own domain, I hope that means you are here for the (very) long term. Keep up the great work. Peter Frank,
