Is it safe to assume that the 1st trading period "officially" begins tomorrow? Last year it begin on 10/4 so I was assuming this year would be no different.
Assume nothing, maggot! The 1st training period shall begin when and only when the YOC deems it so. No sooner and no later! So get back in your corner and wait patiently...or you'll get no dessert!
You make the false assumption that the trading period has not already started, if we must we will go to the underground or black market to make our trades.
