See if I can get this grub - kept QQQ and BDH shorts today and added AMTD short from 6.60. Out of expiring PXD calls flat, added a bit of VSTY and otherwise sat tight. Portfolio update coming tomorrow.

Dale, Amsterdam is one of my favorite cities and I'm sure that you'll enjoy living in civilized Western Europe where most things work. Unfortunately, the climate is terrible. I've been there in Winter and Summer and some days, there is no difference with the temps running 3-10C and rain more on than off. Other days in Summer, it can hit the 30s and drop 20 degrees in fifteen minutes. In Winter, there will be plenty of -5 with a raw wind blowing off the North sea and, of course, less than six hours of daylight. As to doing business in other cultures, I lived seven years in the Middle East where even a signed contract is meaningless unless you have some real means of enforcement. Have a good weekend, paul
