In the UK, when it is a bit hot, it feels really hot. When it is a bit cold, it feels really cold if damp. The damp cold seeps into your bones. That is why we have so many crinklies retire to Spain.
Ex - I’m with IG too - when ESMA happened they offered me an account with their Aussie broker. I keep my 200:1 leverage and reduced margin on hedges.

Thanks for that.
Can you hedge in the same instrument?
We will have the last laugh soon. 
(joking)Choose an Aussie broker who has no UK interest, i.e. not FCA registered.
You said the water was cold – what is the water temp?
I would guess cold enough to shrink your bits to miniscule!

Good lord – glad I headed to Folly!! 
It’s the Atlantic, not the Med. 
I’m purposely staying away from the Med - a bit close to ISIS nut job haunts.
I am a bit of a wimp with cold water though. I squeal getting into a hotel pool. 
Yep.
20 char limit blah blah blah
I know it is the Crappy News Network, but the in-crowd appear to be baling-out
It’s being said by some normally reliable sources that there are some wall street types trying to crash the market to get Trump out of office. Vocal group wishing for a recession — un-American bastards. 
Headed to beach – y’all have yo selves a wonderful week.

Looks like the restructuring of the Argentinian debt just closed my EU carry trade … in profit.
Now thinking that I will look for a GbpEur long position.
Probably best to wait for the next “stuff you lot” expletive from Boris, although knowing me…

Corbyn opens his mouth (I like to blame him at least) and GBP dives against the US$.
Not quite a new low … give it time.
Nobody takes any notice of Corbyn.
