    Managing Funds for a Living

    Yes, having easier, bulk access to C2 historical data could enable all sorts of interesting analyses. You used to be able to see inactive, discontinued systems under "System Finder," but no longer. Don't know the C2 systems death rate, although at least we can estimate, based on the above...

    Managing Funds for a Living

    You mean like the combined performance of an equally-weighted (or not) portfolio of all C2 systems? Sure. Go to the Grid - I prefer the "old version" (link at the top right)... copy & paste (repeatedly) everything to Excel... analyze all you want. (There is a "Show Combined Portfolio" button...

    Jokes 2

    "The Court of Cassation, which is largely staffed by elderly male appeal judges, has in the past issued a number of controversial judgements. It once gave a ruling, later rescinded after protests from women's groups, that a woman could not be raped by definition if she was wearing tight...

    Jokes 2

    Yeah, but did you get a load of her facial expressions?... That video of Ursula Martinez's live nude performance (filmed at the Montreal Just for Laughs Comedy Festival - ya'll knew it wasn't the ever-nudity-friendly USofA) has been all over the Internet for years. Those disturbing faces...

    suggest eliminate FX Autotrading category because...

    FX AutoTrading forum is less active, on average, than some of the others. However, the reason for the gap you mention is simply because that forum was not up - invisible and inaccessible by link - from mid-February until a couple of days ago...

    I need advice about friendly relationships...

    You do realize that by asking ET for relationship help / advice, combined with your prologue, you were really asking for it, right? But you won't get any BS from me. My advice - throw a couple of nice juicy kettlebells in the front passenger footwell of your lovemobile. Just to help break...

    Anyone use kettlebells?

    I grew up with kettlebells. :p Google (Pavel) "Tsatsouline". You'll find many of his books and videos on p2p and bittorrent. Yeah, he sells "authentic Russian" KB's, too... although they are anything but cheap.

    proof that traders are highest quality people in society

    Oh, I don't believe it. I know it for a fact.

    proof that traders are highest quality people in society

    Ah, yes. Nothing like that old professionally scripted, rehearsed and acted OMX commercial to illustrate a point.

    Definitely between 1.96 and 2.01 in the next 24 hours? Thanks for narrowing it down for us.

    Taking $5K to $250K by year end

    10 months is ~210 trading days, not 140. About 1.88% / day on average.

    Taking $5K to $250K by year end

    I think that your "might as well" analogy is itself, well, absurd, a faulty reductio ad absurdum argument. Do you really believe for a moment that returning 1,205% (a 13-fold increase) in 3 months and 408 trades, with both low (7x) leverage and low drawdowns, is remotely similar to...

    Taking $5K to $250K by year end

    "IMPOSSIBLE for anyone"? I don't want to get sidetracked here, but... an automated trading system, no less, has turned $10K into $130K in less than 3 months in the most recent MT4 championship, without breaking a sweat - with 400+ trades, a well-behaved equity curve and great risk/return stats...

    Does using a US broker mean your income is US sourced?

    Neither the location of your broker nor the location of the exchanges you trade on matters for US income tax purposes. So, the answer to your title question is "no." It's kind of a moot point, though, because the distinction you refer to, between US- and foreign-sourced income, only matters...

    Forex broker which meets 3 criterias ...

    That's what the OP is after, of course. However, if one does the math, I believe any potential arb is immediately killed by the spreads, at both dealers. Each 1% of swap rate &asymp 0.27 pip per day... not nearly enough to offset, let alone beat, the multi-pip spread costs. Leverage would...
