June 28, 2016
Hello Traders, Well that’s been quite an eventful last two weeks in markets hasn’t it? For those new to trading I’m sure it seemed quite terrifying.

8th June: GBP Update
June 8, 2016
Well fellow traders, just over a couple of weeks till the EU Referendum here in the UK. (You can read my own rantings about the Brexit vote here.) So I thought I’d do a quick little Sterling update. During my last piece I mentioned that perhaps the markets had already priced in a Remain victory […]

12/08/2015: AUDUSD Option trade closed 6 weeks early
August 13, 2015
I’ve talked in the past about how I’ve often used Binary Options to build longer term hands-off positions over the Summer months.
