Going to keep an eye on the GBP to Euro exchange rates. Currently around 1.2.
If the Euro dives but is not expected to be replaced it may be an opportunity to transfer some money into Euros for holidays later in the year.
Though I'm hoping that those 4 bed villas with private pool you can rent for around 600 euros a month (if not bothered too much about location) become even cheaper and I can rent one for 12 months for next to nothing.
My dreams of 'working from villa', sat by the pool with the laptop and a cold drink is still alive.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

I'm relatively new to spreadbetting as you can tell, but made enough for a good night out while sitting on my arse while waiting for the closing bell on the NYSE last night.
I'm expecting a run on BNP Paribas and Soc Gen monday morning.
I was teetering on sellling Tesco last week when I heard the news on BBC breakfast before the markets opened but didn't have the balls.Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.Comment

No point being bitter. With all the info you've gathered with SKA you could have built an expert system that could accurately predict future market moves and place your bets automatically.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it
