This guy has done more damage to the US economy than the financial crisis of '08. How in the world is Trump going to get re-elected listening to this buffoon. Which tells me Trump needs to make some kind of truce or rapprochement at the end of this year or beginning of the next with China to...

What does that comment mean in English? Although not a Hollywood movie, I thought the youtube documentary Floored was done pretty good and enjoyed watching it.

With the only caveat is that this guy is not that great of a trader. Didn't he create a fund and embezzle his client's funds?

Nope, his results were all verified and he was a very wealthy man through speculation. Only problem is he never revealed his true methods.

Very successful, although his books are very nebulous in figuring out his precise methods. He made 50 million dollars in the early 20th century, when that easily put you in the top .01% of wealth in the US.

America is the going to become the new Canada, no need to move there. AOC probably next president in 2020. Socialized state with 75% tax rates by 2024.

As per his brother Max's obit in 1998, it says he is living in Palisades Park, California. Funny, how is brother is esteemed and honored in academia for his business ethics while Geoffrey is a crook. Could be Geoffrey is the oldest child and lost affection from his parents due to the other...

I think the spreads are different on the training platform compared to the actual trading platform. Oanda takes more of a cut on the spread in real life.

Why? From watching his TV show, he seemed professional and did not seem to use excessive force. He sometimes had to use precaution against some really violent felons but I think that force was justified when you are dealing with the really crazy ones.

Obviously, you can stay longer in the game. I think its meant as more a general rule and not to be followed literally.
