Apologies for the off-topic post but I thought ‘what the hell whilst the trading is dull’.
I’ve mentioned that Brian Lund writes a good trading blog on Stocktwits and that you should follow it.
He’s gone up in my estimation by posting about one of his favourite movies: Get Carter. This happens to also be one of mine. Great minds think alike? Or fools seldom differ? You decide, but I prefer the former.

I was based north of Newcastle for a few years and I always enjoyed seeing places from the movie on my (usually beer driven) wanderings around the town. I was always a big fan of Michael Caine (Zulu, The Italian Job, The Battle of Britain, The Ipcress File, Funeral In Berlin, The Eagle Has Landed etc) but Get Carter was always my favourite due to it being so gritty.
It also included some of my great lines, my favourite one being below.
Ok self-indulgence over. Back to trading.
