15th November

Hi John

Sorry I didn't get this to you yesterday. Attached is my analyser for theweek. I will start a new one using the USA chart next week. I added all my trades for this week as well as the 4 done on the VT. Yesterday was quite an eye opener to me (I've never had so many in years)and I managed to get out at a loss of $44 - 22 pips. I guess if I had waited I'd have come out at a profit but wasn't going to risk any more money.

I practiced on the demo after this mishap and worked out what was wrong. Thank goodness Leigh was here to help me. I was in a panic and his calm way of telling me I was screwing up didn't produce a loving response from me. VTcouldn't do much for me (they are not quite au fait with the new platform yet) and I did submit a ticket but not sure they will do anything about it.I'm not fussed. I made three trades. A $33 and $18 in profit and 1 @ $44loss making my daily profit for the day $7. In two days I've made $187 so Iwas happy with that. Losing doesn't hurt so much anymore. It's all partof the business. View it as a bad debt.

I'm disappointed in Worldspreads and let's see if they refund me. Darren hada few mishaps with them again yesterday as well and I think he'll close his account and concentrate on his other account in the UK. Having traded with him for three weeks, this past week he spent a lot of time on the phone to them to get him out of trades. I also want to concentrate a bit more on Tornado for longer runs. I needthe short term trading to fulfil my trading desire and cardio workout. Leigh did some really good trades using it and I went into three trades using Tornado and I like it.

Darren wants to find out more about it as well and we've a conference call organised for this weekend to go over Tornado. I ams o excited about this. I get more fired up every day. I never ever think of trading as a losing experience. When I lie in bed I think of winners and how I can improve on what I'm doing. I am good at telling Leigh and Darren when to get into good trades and when and why to keep out. Why can't I uset hat same knowledge on myself? Leigh was getting disheartened with his losses but once he got stuck into Tornado there was no holding him back.

Canyou send me your paypal email link so he can pay you for the course please? Once his pay cheque comes in he wants to pay for his course. Darren was in awe of Leigh picking up 50,60, 70 pips at a time and we are battling to get our few wee pips in.

What a week, but I'm chuffed to bits with VT.

Sally Nicholl wrote to me. I see she read my email to you re the book. This is what she wrote to me
"Hi Desiree,

John Bartlett was kind enough to forward me the email you sent him that mentions my book Bets and the City. I'm so pleased you enjoyed it... and delighted to know it kept you awake! Hope you enjoyed it beyond the first four chapters.... and that you'll be able to profit by not repeating all thebeginner mistakes I made. Are you enjoying your trading? And making money? Good luck with it all. If you want to find out more about me and my (lessreckless, these days!) trading, check out my website at www.sallynicoll.com And if you have a moment to do me a quick review on amazon, that would begreatly appreciated! Best wishes, Sally x "

Ok off to do the ironing for the week. Leigh is working on his son's bedroomand Iain arrives from Boston later on today. If you could come to the States and give a course that would be brilliant. We could make it either in Newark which is just outside NYC or in Philadelphia which is an hour's drive fromhere and you can stay here. Interesting prospects. Let's work on them.

Leighwanted a new business venture and how he's got one and he believes in what you do so it could go well. Have a good weekend. It's pouring here. Cheers Desiree
