I trade the Euro Futures, they give me better fills. Scalping is very short term profiting, a few ticks at a time. Or pips in your case.

All markets go where they go, all markets are good every day, some of the time. It all depends on how you look at it, what timeframe you are using etc. You need to apply a technique that works for you in the market. I don't know what you define as longer term trading, but these days, I...

Gordon Brown on Monday gave his firmest signal yet that the government is planning imminent tax cuts to bolster the economy, in what he hopes will be a concerted global effort to stimulate demand. “What I am determined to do is to get all countries around the world trying to get their...

I am curious: Who would you suggest then? :)

Certainly the big 3 are important to the economy and many jobs will be lost if they go bust. But the fact is that they have been running on empty for years, not just since the current crisis. One thing is to bail them out, but will it not simply extend their pain? Gas guzzlers, old factories...
