 Hi Jack,

Even if we accept Van Tharp's premise that all losses are really the
trader's mistake, it is still incumbent upon the trader to try to
correct such mistakes. This sometimes entails going back to the broker
to discuss the problem. If there is a reasonable level of customer
service present, the problem should be dealt with expediently, and not
drag on, unresolved, for months.Why should it take a month just to get
their time and sales record?

By the way, speaking of facts and fiction, I forgot to ask a question in
my original post, this one concerning PMB. I had 'heard' recently that
PMB's President, Stephan Banger, was put on a 30 day suspension for not
cooperating with auditors who wanted to see PMB's books. Can anyone with
knowledge confirm or deny this rumor?

Thanks and Good Trades,
Monte
