Old trick by shops. You may arrange a trip to relax nerve in next non-farm payroll day.

It is a marketing measure aimed mainly at Middle East crude dollar. Some not-real muslims could take advantage of this measure, just as they ever took another FXCM marketing measure called stop-guarantee. One guy as I know made 1,100% profit in 2004 when FXCM still guaranteed stops. Of...
