Sorry folks, my mind has gone completely blank!

Can't for the life of me think what we'd say in English!

Best of luck
The first things that came to mind were "Make that sale!" and such nonsense, but I really think that we would just say "best of luck", "all the best" or even "happy trading". Hope one of these helps you. (How about "may the (sales) force be with you" ...
