I was uncertain as to whether or not I should reply.

I trade for a living....took a seminar with Larry McMillan...visited
trading floors from Chicago to NY to London......got most of my skills
from Hank Camp. I have traded for a living since 1991. How successful am

I don't know how or if this helps....but there ya go
