Refco wasn't regulated...

You can look at a few different ones: Oanda, FXCM, Gain Capital...but that is about where i would end it. MB trading is too small (check out their net excess capital), same with FX Solutions. FXDD is not regulated (I think), North Finance is based in Belize and is a total bucketshop...also I...

All of these shows are garbage. In fact I find it hard to find anything on tv other than Law and Order and the Sopranos that isn't complete trash...back to reading, at online there are plenty of resources and the corporate news monkeys are not dictating what is allowed there...wait until Murdoch...

UGH, I happened to tune in last night - the highlight for 5 minutes? Paris Hilton photographed holding a bible...and then of course some witty comments about how she can't read, etc..so predictable and unsuitable for a business news channel.

I agree, make sure they are regulated...this industry is still pretty new and their are a ton of scamsters our there just waiting for fresh meat.

I agree with you on the hedge funds, I am not a big fan.. I understand their existance for ultra high net worth individuals but at this point all they seem to be offering is glorified mutual funds. No thanks, would prefer to stick with real mutual funds and know that I have regulators behind me...

One of my friends sons had an internship with a broker (whose name I will not mention, all I can say is that they were small in terms of net excess capital) and all he did for 6 hours of the day was post on various forums about how terrible the larger brokers were. He had over 50 aliases! It was...

What a bucket shop...any broker that cannot stick to the most basic rules such as not allowing unlicensed reps to makes sales calls and making sure to not LIE about safety of their funds is obviously completely shady... If I had an account with them, I would close it...

I sometimes follow Grace Cheng. She\'s a self made trader from Singapore, kind of interesting.. www.gracecheng.com One of my friends recommended her, said she had quite a following in Asia...

I actually traded the AUD/CAD yesterday, short at 0.9120 and closed out just now at 0.9019. Pretty good trade. Not normally the pair I like to trade but found a good article by Jamie Saettle about that pair and the Elliot Wave. I\'ve been following his stuff for a while now and he\'s pretty good...

I love Bloomie...unlike the Bush administration and its goons, he has so much money he can't be bought because he can already buy himself anything he could want. I love it

Finally it happened! Maybe there is a god...

Yeah, I went to the site and watched the video, pretty neat. Anyone here gonna post some questions? I am thinking about it....

I'm gonna wait until the after the news comes out tomorrow before I place a trade....

Let's face it, most people lose in the markets. Obviously everyone goes into this hoping to make money, otherwise what would be the point? But having unrealistic ideas about making a million in merely means you will overleverage yourself, blow up your account, blame your broker and start posting...
