    Dollar is rallying but now I am closing all my long dollar positions - especially the long usdchf position. I am moving 100% into december gold now. Yesterday's gold price action was weird and it went down, but today the strength that Gold has demonstrated has given me the confidence that its...

    Stockvision PowerScan vs Trade-Ideas

    With Multicharts you can also look at futures, forex and options data. not sure if you can do that with Stockfinder. Sorry, I have not used scanner, so won't know which one is faster. However, there is a 100/500 names limit that you can use on multicharts at the same time.

    Stockvision PowerScan vs Trade-Ideas

    I don't use scanners personally - at least have not used them till now. Some basic questions since you have done so much reaseach on scanners. Interactive Brokers also has a real time scanner - why not use it ? Or if you can have multicharts, they also have a real time scanner + you get...

    Dighton ASP Fund Down 40,8% in July

    The page shows their assets ending on July 31st was 142,000 USD ??? Thats all. Even if they lost 40% of 240 million in July, they should be left with 140 million. The clients were smart and fast enough that they acted to withdraw all 120 million immediately !! Does above figures/situation...

    Stock Model

    Hey Nitro, Please tell us something more about your equity model. As a bystander, knowing nothing about your model - forget the basics, not even high level details are known. How can I or anyone else have much interest in your stock postings (even when I would like to look and track them)...

    Lol, I mis-understood you. Sorry, I don't have much to pass around, whatever I am smoking! Agreed, if Noda has more power is arguable. On a side note, reading his character vs Kan's character - it seems to me that he is more forceful, more internal locus of control kind of guy. At least that...

    I meant as prime minister, Noda can potentially do more than as Finance minister. Agreed, 'absolute power' as such was an improper phrase. why you getting upset.

    You have a good point. I was in two minds about the effect on JPY - will it become more of safe haven or will it sell off due to fear that Japan might also do something like this. I stopped myself out of long JPY and am currently in short EURUSD and long USDCHF trade.

    There is one more key point to note. Noda is now the prime minister - in absolute power. I know Japan is all about groupism and collective action. However, still when Noda put in 45 Bn $ as finance minister, I wonder what he can do as Prime Minister. More and more it seems to me that for the...

    Short term tactical trade call: Long USDCHF for a 3-5 big figure move. Stop 1 big figure. Will attempt this trade again, if stopped out. Long at 0.852.

    Daal, Excellent suggestion. I used to trade NOK 2yrs back, surprised that it escaped me. Just one note though - NOK is much less liquid compared to CHF. Which means the movements in EURNOK both ways could be much bigger than EURCHF. So please size your position accordingly.

    Also, I am not sure what it means for usdjpy. Since one safe haven is gone, does it mean that usdjpy will drop? or does it mean that speculators will decide to unwind their short usdjpy positions (at least temporarily) fearing a similar "big" move from BoJ. At least, till now usdjpy is up, but I...

    SNB sets franc floor at CHF1.20 versus euro.

    Traderslair - get your facts checked. Not one post in this thread has talked about indicators. What are you smoking ?? or you confusing this thread with something else !!

    SNB sets franc floor at CHF1.20 versus euro.

    which as an extension also means that EURCHF should be bought at these levels for scalps ranging from 40-100-200 pips, every now and then. FREE TRADE !!!!

    Yes, it is 'game over' for CHF as haven. Very well said. Well this action by SNB means that case for sustained rise in gold becomes even stronger. It is the only safe haven whose price can't be controlled by one central bank alone.

    SNB sets franc floor at CHF1.20 versus euro.

    I think you need to be a bit careful. Yes, SNB and China are willing to buy a lot of euros agreed. But dont you think that this fact will make hfs and other large speculators to go a bit slow on dumping euro since their immediate 'sells' might not show them a good profit - and as a result they...
