Mad Day Trader Jim Parker is a modest guy. He has never been one to boast of his many achievements. If he does a great trade, he simply marks it in the ?WIN? column and moves on to the next trade. I, however, am not Jim Parker. As you may have noticed over the years,

Occasionally the consensus is right. Since the start of the year, it seems that everyone and his brother, sister and cleaning lady has been selling short the euro. As a result, the beleaguered continental currency has suffered one of the sharpest falls in the history of the foreign exchange markets. I have to think back
