Well first and foremost, the name has changed as you can see. It is now the Safe Tape Trading Foundation. After careful thought from input from all of you, we noticed that the tape trading world wasn’t in trouble. At the time, we were a little upset about big established companies threatening the small guys (which is us).

 

We are using this issue of the newsletter to let everyone know that we are only anti-bad traders and that is the only thing that we are against. We know that we aren’t the only ones who hate being ripped off. Some of you may know him. His name is Greg Pomes. I mean it wasn’t like a normal rip. HE GOT ME FOR TWENTY TAPES. I did all the checks on him and everything that I got back on him made me think that he was a good trader. We did a two tape with four events trade and then we set up the trade for 20 events. We both agreed that we would send the same day. Well as you can tell, I haven’t gotten any tapes and I e-mail him between twice and four times a week. He always comes back with something like his house burnt down, my uncle had a heart attack, or his son is in the hospital, blah, blah, blah!!!! You all get the picture.

 

I am going to use the remainder of the newsletter to post a questionnaire that is for everyone who reads it. Please send your responses to [email protected] and they will be used in the next newsletter on the trader’s guide on the rules of trading.
