    Explain to this Aussie

    Our cash management accounts track the cash rate as well, with a margin for the bank. The current RBA cash rate is 3.5%, and there are many on-line accounts with the same (or higher) interest rates. https://www.ingdirect.com.au/savings/interest_rates.htm#SavingsMaximiser...

    Explain to this Aussie

    No, I don't think I have. My original question generally referred to the fixed nature of US mortgages rather than the benchmark to which they are held. Seems like an awful lot of paper work to get a reduction in repayments, and something that carries significant risk if there is any...

    Why is the Economy weak in the US?

    The US economy is fueled by debit and consumption, not savings and manufacturing. And the down fall of every democracy will be the inevitable ascension of a gov that promises more than it can afford and spiraling debt. pneuma

    Trendfollowers: When oh when are we going to start making some $$$?

    Your problem, i suspect, is you have only one system. Trend following systems can make money in all of those markets, sure 2010 has been less profitable than mid 08 for long and early 09 for short, but still profitable. Develop some more systems to exploit trends in environments where you...

    Taking 320K to 3.5million by Year End 2009

    I would have a bet that the regular job provides a decent income, but not the intellectual challenge. Thus i suspect that the psychology of Neke's trading has less to do with making profits, more to do with the personal fulfillment of the challenge. For me that's how trading should be...

    A Mechanical Swing Trading System

    2 ideas that might improve performance: 1. I think you are placing too many orders, you will probably get a better performance by limiting the number you place. To do this is suggest you rank your signal by a metric (i suggest volatility for swing systems) and then only place the top 5-10...

    After many year trading still making few stupid mistakes, Need to know I am not alone

    Dalai Lama once said when you lose, don’t lose the lesson. I suppose it depends on whether it is the same mistake again and again, or different mistakes periodically. How about you burn (literally) $1000 in cash every time you lose a $1000 trading. That might make the lesson stick...
