Alex,
Yes, I knew Blair in his early days when he was a one man band.. He told
me about his casino days and the funny eye glasses with lights they used to
count cards. By the way, I was trading the MMI Maxi contract duirng the
crash. I got lucky and bought 1 at 295.00 which I think was about $4 from
the low tick. By the end of the trading day, they traded $100 higher. I was
scalping for about $20 swings ($5,000 per contract) every 20-30 minutes, but
I was only doing 1 lots, so no fortune made that day for me, just one of my
better days.
Thanks,
Norman
