Exactly - he speaks disparagingly of IT and "geeks" yet cannot stay off here.
I suspect he's a failed IT geek who didn't make any money in IT and is now not making any money in day-trading.

Bye, bye FTSE 5K

Well, I worked for 20 years in IT and banking, programming trading systems and then decided I would rather be the trader in the ivory tower than the programmer in the sweaty basement.

I still like to frequent here to see the state of the market and follow progress on BN66.

There's still hope for mine (and Brillo's) Dec 3500 puts.

Covered the cost of them anyway, with regular shorts over the last few days.

I've enjoyed reading his insight into a world of which I know little. As someone who dabbles with a few hundred quid in a spread betting account I've found his posts most interesting.

Good to see the being nice thing is going strong.

I sat next to SantaClaus for 3 months. We still meet for coffe every month or two. I can guarantee you that there is no BS from him.

But continually putting others down without any basis in fact you just make yourself look bad. Why dont you try turning your efforts to something more positive?
