cheers: john.





Dear John,

I am awaiting the chart which might enmable me to
follow your explanations
more easily.

Wow - youīve put so much time in MY thing that I hope
I somehow will be able
to make up for it. Somehow, swing trading apparently
isnīt used that much by
the members of this forum...

Please take your time and donītr put yourself in a
hurry because of me. I
really appreciate your effort!

A big THAAAAAAANNNXXXX!

Markus
