I've managed to get all of the MATIF (Paris Bourse) hand signals recently and once the rare confluence of free time, motivation and sobriety all fall in line for me I'll post them up. The funniest which highlights the cultural differences between France and the rest of the world for example is the signal for Goldman Sachs which elsewhere is indicated by the thumb pointing to the where a wedding band is worn on the ring finger. On the MATIF floor, Goldman Sachs in indicated by two musical things, either mimicing playing a saxophone (Sachs sounds similar to sax) or playing a guitar as the second best selling musician in France is Jean-Jacques Goldman.
