At last - AN HONEST TRADER / BROKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Two questions go beyond all discretion and all privacy, but
they beg to be asked if you care to answer, even
privately...

How much money DID you loose?

What is the highest amount of which you heard that was lost
by one trader.

If it helps, your answers might bring some of the crap
shooters on this list back to reality.  The SP can be a
profitable friend or a humiliating and brutal task master.
To stay on the "good" side, always - AND I MEAN ALWAYS - a
trader should respect the markets unconditionally!!!!!!
