I hate that the poor grammar gives me an impression that the info is more valuable. But, it does.

Did you mean the opposite here or do you really get the impression that info with grammar mistakes is more valuable?
Normally, I would only mean the opposite but in this context, my intuition was to allow the shady trader to value numbers and their own time over words and grammer.

Not that this reasoning is useful AT ALL but I guess I was frustrated with myself for looking beyond poor grammar. Normally I stick to realms where grammar is highly valued but like many of us, I am making an effort to learn more about currency markets these days. It is a culture shock.

Do you value grammar over spelling?
