Orders of 0.25, 0.5, 5 and 6 lots dominated, but there were also some transactions with really impressive volumes, such as 33, 50 and even the record 60 lots.
Ahmed started with a high margin ($ 110,000), gradually increasing his amount with subsequent successful transactions and realized profits on an ongoing basis. The lifetime of an open position he was usually ranged from a few minutes to several days. The biggest one-time gain for Ahmed came from a long cable position that ended after 3 days at + $ 4,775.
