Thanks, yes it does appear 50:1 (20:1, depending on the currency) applies to everyone. That's why i was surprised when i saw those two banks to whom the rules for everyone else did not apply. I'll definitely try to dig that up.

Oh ok, i think i get it, especially the last part. If the average daily range of a currency pair is only .002%, for example, then yah, it would take forever to realize much of a gain, and the only one's that may be interested in that game would be few. So leverage helps attract traders, which...

I'll try to dig up where i read that. I've read so much lately it may take a while. But if i recall, i remembered it because the two banks were listed among what some are saying is a kind of cabal of banks favored by the top tier, if you know what i mean. I remembered it because it looked to...

Hi, i am genuinely unknowing and curious about the availability of leverage in the forex market. Brokers are/were typically offering 100:1 and i've even heard of 900:1. Then the U.S. said their citizens can only go up to 50:1 (but i've noticed they allowed two brokers/banks to continue to...

Upon further reflection, two thoughts come to me: 1.) Probably there was never really a *gold standard* after 1913. There has been the *appearance* of a gold standard, but that appears to me to have been a fraud. The intent has been to make and maintain a monopoly, and the...

Well, it's been what, three weeks? And the blackout on this story continues after every news organization REPEATED the same SKETCHY STORY that was initially put out (by the Italian Police?) for public consumption. If anybody has done any investigative journalism about this, it is buried under...

So my question a couple posts back was: Based on WHAT? I did a little digging and may have found some dirt. According to this YouTube they introduced birth certificates in 1933. These certificates have a CUSIP number, just like any other kind of bond. Possibly, the U.S. offered these...

According to THIS SOURCE, the 6 TRILLION bond siezure in Switzerland is connected with Marc Rich: "The latest scam they are working on involves the $6 trillion worth of 1934 gold back securities that were seized in Switzerland recently. These bonds were tied to financier and Bush/Clinton...

THIS four minute video from PositiveMoney.com explains it briefly and clearly.

So just out of curiosity, i went over to PrisonPlanet.com, you know, Bill Hicks, oops, i mean Alex Jones web site, to see what they were reporting on this. No reporting, just repeating what ZeroHedge.com said about it. No reporting there either, just repeating, except for one question they...

I was just joking about the rascally gold panners and their Levi jeans. And i've temporarily accepted your figure of 165K Tons of gold total. What i want to point out though, is that 85% of that could believably have been accumulated by the Chinese because of trade going back to Roman days...

The newspaper article pictured here, from the New York Times, December 1st, 1934, shows 180 Tons imported from various countries including China, from 1929 through 1934. As pressure continued to rise, China finally let loose of, allegedly 125,000 Tons in 1938, sent to the US on 7...

THIS YouTube presentation talks about "money as debt", and shows how the banking system works. The most notable thing about it is that while it used to be that loans were based on how much gold was in reserve at a ratio of 9 dollars lent to one dollar in reserve(9:1 fix-fractional lending), the...

You have completely failed to even mention all the gold panned out of streams in North America, including the Black Hills and Alaska, between 1850 and 1900. Gold panners are rascally characters who don't necessary declare how much gold they have found, so we have to measure it by how many...

Check out this transcript of Lord Blackheath's recent comments HERE about that. He says common estimates are coming from a 12 year old National Geographics article that's being requoted without any real checking. He says the Vaticans gold reserves alone are more than what has been commonly...

Don't be so sure about how much gold exists. Possibly 90% of it is off-market, unheard-of, hidden..."black" (think: Black Eagle Trust). How much gold do you think China had accumulated by 1934? ...After how many hundreds of years of selling the world all sorts of highly valued goods...
