    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Good calls Gringinho, :). Can I ask you how you knew there would be a retracement from the 40/50 level? Did you see the same trendline as drawn on the chart attached? And why did you see the 20 level as (light?) support, I didn't see that. Keep it up!

    TerryL: I meant 'stable and low inflation'. Sorry. Interest exists for a reason, most important is inflation and risk compensation. Lending someone money, without receiving interest would be giving away a portion of the money (equal to inflation). Maybe it is interesting to know why...

    I think you misunderstood me. I favour government action on specific areas to provide stability, property rights, rule of law, anti-trust regulation, no-curruption, etc, etc. Capitalism can not function properly without these aspects.

    I don't want to bash your religious anti-interest stand, but interest is not bad. As suggested, read something about the basics of how the economic system functions. You will see (if you read the right books) that capitalism tries to achieve the standards you think are important (equality, but...

    Currencies serve as part of the economic system. They will move to stabilize economies, for example when overheating could be a problem (appreciate). etc, etc. One world currency would probably only be a good idea when the world is as integrated as a country today. But that can take a long...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    In the Netherlands, you pay 1,2% over ALL your assets - ALL your debt, over 18k (box 3). BUT, if you are a daytrader, the dutch IRS can move you into box 1 (income from labour), this means you would pay a progressive tax rate, up to 51% :eek: But the thing is, the line between the two...

    Does it make a difference if you made this gain as a daytrader, or as for example somebody who manages his own pension funds?

    You should try Firefox. You can even install it and use it next to IE. Once you tried Firefox, you don't want to go back to IE, I know.

    Did the price update also lag? Were you able to enter after the nubers were released, but before the price was updated at FXCM? Or did they block that now?

    But short Eur/USD is the same as long USD (given Euro constant). Do you mean long Eur/USD?

    The FED will 'for certain' make a 25 point move, right? Will negative comments about future interest rates be enough to get USD down, despite the 25 move? Otherwise, long USD is a good position?
