I think you have taken your rants too far. If you don't know anything about this subject, then shut up. We all heard you. That's enough.

I have not taken this Pristine edition of his gap course, but I have taken the similar course when he was at VCM/TeamTrading. It is a summary of what he did each morning preparing the gaplist and watchlist and then choosing the best gap to trade. It is much better than the previous gap course...

I trade spot forex, using TradeStation and MetaTrader4 platforms. You mentioned currencies, so do you trade the London session or New York session and what symbol pairs do you trade? Also, what timeframes do you normally trade for currencies? Thanks! Here are some trades I took just now...

Thanks for your replies. I am checking the fees and charges for opening Foreign Currency accounts at DBS/POSB, StandChart, and CitiBank, so that I can receive the broker funds in USD through wire transfer. My broker is TradeStation.com

If I request for TT international wire transfer, is it cheaper to receive into my UOB Singapore dollar account, or UOB U.S. dollar account? In any case I eventually want to convert to Singapore dollars to pay bills here locally. I currently bank with DBS/POST so not sure if UOB or StandChart...

When you withdraw money from your US broker, what is the cheapest way to convert the USD cheque into Singapore dollars? Local banks charge a fee to clear the "foreign" cheque. What do you do in your case if you have SGD bank accounts with DBS/POSB?

is it really the government that wants you to trade with US brokers, or is it really the Chicago big boys who wanted the kill the spot forex market and move everyone to the exchanges and trade futures for a fee and commission?

LOL! with this, i'm unsubscribed to this thread ......

you guys are talking about trading the news event right? whether your chart timeframe interval or broker spreads or your setup timing allowed you to score on this "sudden" move .....

Again, helped by Greek news .....

I was lucky :-)

spot forex. no commissions (except spread), no platform fees, no exchange fees, no minimum account balance PDT rules, highly liquid spot markets.

Good lesson!

If your strategy is to try and beat GS with HFT, then good luck. You sure know how to pick a winning game.
