A little about me...

Started trading in 2001 and got my big break when Trish gave me an old YTD port she and PosterBoy had that was $H300m. This was miles more than my first port had grown to (about ~$H50m) and I took that and ultimately grew it to #10 LTD and over $3 billion. I joined HSBR in April 2002 and began writing regular opener columns and various HSX stats columns over the years. These columns included the HSX HOF and HSX FAQ which detailed historical data for openers and their legs. After HSBR folded I went on to start my own blog (proscrastination-central.com) before calling it quits after 18 months. I retired from HSX in 2006 when I sold my port (trike2) on eBay. At my retirement I had won a YTD (2005 with Paul@HSBR), numerous STD and other stuff but due to work and other things I had to pack up my wares. I called many people my friend on these boards over the years, many of whom have faded into the background, but some are still around thankfully. I've always stuck close to the boards and this account is actually my first account I started way back when. My days of trading seriously are behind me but I stick kick the tires of my port from time to time. I joined the BoxOffice.com staff in November of 2009 and currently write daily columns on Twitter and its buzz surrounding upcoming movies.
