[RT] Ric Ingram's Service Provider concept



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

Hi Ric,

Yesterday you had written about the merits of being a service provider.

In a private email I had requested your guidance on how to determine when 
to provide what service i.e. when to buy and when to sell. I have still not 
received your valued advices. Perhaps you would like to enlighten the group 
on the practical application of the service provider concept?

Thanks in advance


Rakesh
