Yeah can still call me Dave. I changed my username for a couple of reasons; because I've been using different usernames for different websites and I can never remember which one is used for what. Second reason, probably not a good idea to have my name as my username in a public forum.. 

Trading the news isn't easy man, I make it sound like it is but it took me years to work out how to do it and I read so many books and watched so many videos. And I was constantly losing (but only trading a 0.05 lot size until I got it right).

The reason I chose 1:1 was because it seemed that's what the majority of others were doing in their books / online. Plus I noticed that sometimes it literally hits the 1:1 mark then reverses and hence my strategy was born!

I also chatted to some guy on a forum years back and he sent me a pretty decent PDF that he wrote and was planning to turn into a book. That's where I got most of my info. I've been trying to find it so I can post it here for you guys but can't for the life of me find it.
