How on earth did you get that? Last time NZD/USD was at .5900, AUD/USD was at 0.7500.

Good call!

It'd be about 1.2% pa. Which isn't too much compared to the potential price movement of gold vs euro.

I totally agree. If you're behind a router firewall, your software firewall could run for years without detecting any attempted intrusions - at least nothing that the basic XP firewall couldn't handle. Might be different if you were running a web server, or some other service, but then...

Are you serious?! He said about a $1000 while the actual price (that day) was $1150, and that's not close enough? It was within 25%, so why didn't he get to keep it?

Ninjatrader is $50 a month. or you could use Excel... depends on what you need I suppose.

You'll find that the point of this thread is that the position in TWS is not exact and realiable. For example, if you trade a Yen denominated product and receive profit in Yen, there is no currency transaction recorded for the gain of the Yen. So, when the Yen is converted into US dollars, there...

The only way I know of is to use a VoIP service provider - many of which are mentioned in posts above. To be able to call a landline you need to pay for the service - all the free services (like skype) are only free when you connect to another computer user through the internet. However, if you...

I agree, but I like to think that many of the comments are made at least partially in jest. Surely, many of the posters are aware that stock markets found fair value of companies before there was a 401(k) system, and indeed do so in the 99% of countries that have no 401(k) equivalent. Wouldn't...

Your original question was regarding why anyone should buy shares that don't pay a dividend - in other words why would the value of the shares increase if they aren't practically useful and don't pay anything. I suggest the answer is simply because when the profit of the company increases the...

For some reason everyone seems to be ignoring that fact the a share is still a part ownership of the company, which itself has vaule not only from the assets that form it, but the profits it makes, regardless of whether a dividend is paid. For example, if a company makes a $1 billion profit a...

The stock market also has a spread, as well as commissions. If you look at a stock price there is an ask price, which is the price the lowest seller wants for their stock, and there is a bid price, which is the price the highest buying is willing to pay for the stock. Exactly the same as what...

Nvidia's new GT300 chip, due out in December, has apparently been designed to natively support C++

Bad-data spikes do seem to happen at Oanda occasionally - but I've only seen 100 pip spikes - not 4000. Those spreads start to narrow after the weekend and get to normal when the Japanese banks open Monday morning.

I though District 9 was fantastic - but I certainly appreciate that it won't suit everyone's tastes. I think there's more than plenty of action, excitement and intrigue to make up for the shortcomings in the premise. - Problem is, if you end up watching it on DVD and really love it, you'll...

Instead of using 'contracts' to make forex trades, IB uses accounts, or budgets. Assuming the base currency of your account is USD, when you make the long AUD/USD trade, it simply reduces your USD account by the relevant amount - which at the present rate of 0.8390 would be $20 975, and...

There's no problem at all with using the DVI to VGA adapter plug. The video card is already capable of generating both an analogue signal that uses the old VGA plug, and also a digital signal that uses the new DVI plug - and it sends those different signals to different pins in the same socket...

The image degradation may be because of the difference between the horizontal and vertical viewing angles of the panel. Particularly for the cheaper TN panels, the vertical viewing angle is much lower than the horizontal. Which usually isn't a problem in normal usage when your viewing angle...

James Bond quit MI6 and married Contessa Teresa di Vicenzo at the end of 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' - but I shan't spoil what happens next...

It's likely that your charting software draws bars based on the system clock - and your desktop clock is simply 23 seconds ahead of your laptop clock.
