It did as well! Assuming you meant /yen.
Hilary - I met the chap in Tenerife who is interested in trading forex, and we went through the links you mentioned and he wrote down 3 to go to for info. He is in fact inexperienced but seems pretty sensible - time will tell! Thanks for your help and comments.
Having trouble with the FXCM site and the video tutorial - all down to my lack of computer knowledge with Quicktime and plug-ins etc. I can't answer the questions they want to know about my computer - all I know is that it's black. However, reinforcements are on their way!

Cloud - thats why I trade it!
Spread is usually either 1 or 2. Cost of round trip is way cheaper than any FX deal I've been able to negotiate.
Reference price varies according to how far into the contract you are. Currently it trades at between 2 and 2.5 points above the forex rate. Any more or less and you get an opportunity for a free arb!
I'm expecting to sell my business within the next 3 months, and then intend to become a full time futs trader.
Practicing at the moment, at least 2 hours a day with sensible targets, small stakes (maximum exposure 10 contracts), proper accounts/bookeeping and with all due discipline.
Been trading BPH6 every day for the last week now. Four winning days and one loser. The four winning days each returned a profit of between 4.1% of pot and 12.6% (yesterday). Losing day cost me 1.82%.

Gausie.......nice trading, if you can keep that up you've cracked it.
Sound like you are i the same boat as i was 3yrs ago, closed my business and just
working part time now to relieve the stress of trading.
Its taken me nearly 5yrs, all told, to crack this trading lark but fairly confident now.
As my main trading is Mini Dow(YM) and E- mini S&P (ES) the currencies fit
nicely into morning trading and hopefully help to build the pot.
Are you going to set up business outside UK? will understand if you don't want to answer that on here.
Back to the BPH6, nice pennant on the hourly to keep an eye on.

It's good to see a lot more interest in this thread these last few days. Some of this might be of use to some.
[05:42 GMT Feb 22nd] Smattering of nearby option expirations in a number of
pairs. See See 2369 for details. (hi)

below 139.25, 139.00. (hi)
[05:40 GMT Feb 22nd] [USD/JPY] stops tripped on break below 116.70-80 support.
Very large selling by an U.S. investment bank early at 117.10-20, provided
fodder for subsequent move down to 116.42. Talk light 116.50 option barriers
taken out. More at 116.00. Plenty of option strikes between 116.00-50, gamma
buys supportive. (hi)
[05:37 GMT Feb 22nd] [EUR/JPY], [CHF/JPY] and [GBP/JPY] (to a smaller extent)
sold by a variety of funds including models, momentum and hedge. Some paring
short JPY positions, shorter-term funds riding wave down. (hi)
[05:35 GMT Feb 22nd] Talk of central bank [EUR/USD] bids-offers both sides of
1.1900. Bids look to have won out for now. More offers up around 1.1970-75.
Standing bids below towards 1.1850. (hi)

[05:29 GMT Feb 22nd] Talk of large [NZD/JPY] stops below 77.00. Cross dips to

results in bounce. (hi)
[05:27 GMT Feb 22nd] [NZD/USD] supported by generally weak USD, short covering,
up from 0.6609 to 0.6636. Offers seen thick 0.6650-70. (hi)
