I am African.

I was very nervous.

After making some good money through the week.

I stupidly walked my wife to the station, with an open position on the Thursday.

The rest as they a say is history.

My stupidity was because I was Long without the stop loss in place, I could have been Short and made a fortunte.

What is interesting is the the same sort of institutions that encourge the privatisation of state assets and control in African countries race to intervene in the market if they believe it needs assistance. The same banging on the drum for Free Markets always plays silent if it goes against the system as shown by the HUNT Family back in the early 1980's over cornering the Silver Market.
