Sorry, Will;
This is what I meant. You wrote...."By "multiple trades" do you mean several simultaneous trades, each to a different trade partner?"

More often than not,in each trade there are at least two and even six or seven or more emails exchanged between trade partners. If you had five or six trades going in, say a weeks time period, that's a lot of emails to keep straight. Which chip/s did he/she want ? Oh yeah, I sent those yesterday......I think. Lost my note. Did I receive that one ? Don't think so. Better email them and ask when they sent it. Dang, accidently deleted an email I need. At times, I really get confused. But then, I confuse easily. Mayby it's just me.

Probably should keep my trading activity down to say, one a month.

Thanks for listening,
Rick
