could you care to elaborate? I'm really lost on whether I should finish my last year in Marketing and take up another degree in Economics or something.. Where/how can I learn how to trade for and by myself?

I would like to know, my dream one day is to become a full-time professional trader. Even if it means struggling and not making big big bucks - I just love studying the markets and the general lifestyle/workday of a typical trader. The problem is, I am currently finishing my degree in...

sound analysis imho and makes sense. so 4% maintenance could signal a change in the EURUSD rally. my question is: how will european indices take it? Or are they more dependent on the Fed's upcoming meeting?

With all the subprime mess spreading over to the old continent and European banks warning on major hits due to the mortgage crisis - are the markets rallying in aniticipation/speculation of a possible rate cut by the ECB this week? And if they DON'T get the rate cut - will markets still...

say you execute both of these example trades you have described: how would you exit them? would you unload all shares [5666] at one predetermined price? or scale out? If so, what would be your criteria? thanx for the advice.

they [government] can quickly dissmiss credibility of such documentaries to the average joe with labels such as "communism", "activism", or "conspiracy theories". the average joe - given his exposure to other media distractions and scarce education - will not bother looking up the truth, and...

You gotta love today's retarded youth (aka generation myspace) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUCbPvP5H9k with ppl wasting their time viewing videos like this, who bothers to care what the "Fed" or "some central bankers" are up to? Sad.

i personally am waiting for a bounce to get in and short the dollar. With speculation on the fed cutting rates further down the line, its seems like the only way to keep the markets at current level is to devalue USD. They are doing one heck of a good job. :)

its called inflation.

Basically this clever scheme is milking the american population. arent other countries around the world aware of this? if so, why are the american indexes leading the direction of the markets? Couldnt other countries profit from knowing this agenda and dump the dollar in favor of more...

yeah i know. but i want to remain IN the market at all times. Then its about timing the exit on both contracts that would determine the profit/loss of a particular trade.

ok so i would need to different accounts right? thats what I thought.. is there a big difference in spot prices between front months and later months? Because if the difference was minimal, i could still be able to mantain a [relatively] neutral position with the method you just stated [and...

hi everybody, i just recently decided to explore the world of futures. Coming from a background of trading just stocks and warrants. My question is: can i remain market neutral by buying one contract and selling another contract [same spot price obviously] with the same brokerage account?

Im being dead honest abt my reaction.. .. after weeks of research on the entire subject - i felt cheated to the point that i wanted to cry. if only they taught how to play the system in schools.

thats so true. and to the other poster: what has the emergence of a new currency got to do with conspiracy theories?

what i find kind of curious is the fact that all these comments, documentaries, books and opinions are surfacing NOW after so many years. if this fraud [what the Fed is doing] was so real and easy to point out - howcome its all coming out now? It doesnt take a genius to analyze the Fed's...

I purposely looked up the exchange rate between GBP/XAU. Since i wanted to see the relationship between one of the stronger currencies against the precious metal (so USD was out of the question).

Ok I meant June. Not July. Anyways, it doesnt actually change my observation: USD has devalued against the pound. Pound buys less gold each time. Do you have data for previous periods where currency REBOUNDED and bought more gold? Is gold becoming scarcer and its value increasing over...

ive been studying the exchange rates of various currencies and have noticed that most benchmark currencies seem to be losing value respect to the GBP. pardon my ignorancy. could someone explain to me WHY and WHAT exactly is causing this? [and for whose interest]?? for example on 1st july...

AFAIK, being long a call and long a put means ur betting on volatility increase. the long call and long put make you delta neutral, so you dont make money there. plus you have to factor in time decay which also works against you. A decrease in volatility will also produce a loss. i guess a...
