<p>Despite being professional trader the armed forces are very close to my heart, my grandpa served on the Ark Royal in 1940 and my younger brother is a Warrant Officer, currently on deployment in the Falklands having served almost 20 years in the Royal Navy.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I feel very humbled by the sacifices that are made by all those in our armed forces, both past and present.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>So I am asking all punters or traders to make a donation however small to this cause. If you have a great trade or big win between now and Rememberence Sunday, why not donate a portion of your profits</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>If the traders on Betfair make up the difference between there current commission and maximum 5% Betfair charge on their profits we could raise a significant amount.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Example 4% commission on winnings, if you donate 1% extra making it a total of 5% on your winnings would certainly help in the quest of raising &pound;1000 for the poppy appeal.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>My trading community at www.proxtrading.com are fully behind and they will donate a proportion of the their profits on 11th &amp; 12th November.</p>
