    This guy predicts that a "wear alone" smartwatch will cannibalize 70% of smartphone market? ha

    I see it all the time here in Ottawa, Canada. I'd say about 20% of customers use it. Second cup as well. However, not widly used for other stores given that the apps aren't available yet. Sorry, I've been in these places ALOT over the last three months given that they have become my...

    This guy predicts that a "wear alone" smartwatch will cannibalize 70% of smartphone market? ha

    This actually just very recently became available in the "wallet" application. However you still need to open the "wallet" and select the pass. If wallet had a single barcode recognized by all scanners that would search for the relevant pass, that would be best. I don't want to have to fuss...

    This guy predicts that a "wear alone" smartwatch will cannibalize 70% of smartphone market? ha

    I could see this happening only if voice recognition became very reliable. As it is right now, I'd never trust sending an email or text unless I could easily see it and modify it. I don't know if its just me, but I find SIRI on my iPhone to be utterly useless. If it reached a point where we...

    *EXPERIENCED DAY TRADERS*how would you recommend starting out as a trader?

    If he goes for those 100, 200 + leverage options, he will lose his money. I guarantee it. I only started to make money when I reduced that leverage to less than 1:10. I'll let you do the math to figure out how much you need to deposit to make 1:10 or less worth your time and energy.

    What is the economic rationale for allowing the Fed to create trillions of dollars out of thin air

    Boo Hoo! Come on, Sig, did you really think you could convert a bunch of lunatics? Please, don't jump in front of a large boulder tumbling down a hill hoping to stop it. You're going to get yourself killed! Same idea applies to trading, by the way. Anyhow, I actually agree with you, but .....

    How low Canadian dollars will go?

    And I'll be down about $15,000 by then depending on how much I am able to recover with scalping. Actually, instead of .57 was 1.57 intended?

    How low Canadian dollars will go?

    Given the cyclical nature of this currency pair, I actually see this as a huge opportunity. Let the USDCAD rise to $1.50, $2.00, even $3.00! It won't, but if it does: bring it on!

    How low Canadian dollars will go?

    Is it Martingaling? Maybe. However, I don't double the position after each loss. I began a gradual short into this pair as the USDCAD rose above its 25 year average price. I have a set maximum loss I am willing to take, and I short term trade with smaller size when the pair moves closer to...

    How low Canadian dollars will go?

    I'm shorting this pair as well. My system also seems to be profitable, but not by much. I keep adding a new piece to the short, trade it for a while until goes against me, and then I add a bit more to the long term short. The result: my short term trades which are all wins add up to slightly...

    Wow, oil up nearly $10 off its lows in just a matter of days!!

    A quick glance of the day chart tells me this is more than month end noise, or are you suggesting this is just the beginning? Hard to tell from your post.

    Wow, oil up nearly $10 off its lows in just a matter of days!!

    Funny human psychology: if it falls a little, it's a correction; if it rises a little, it's a dead cat bounce. We all see what we want to see.

    Oanda - Visa/Debit

    The transaction was reversed and the money reappeared in my account last night. Anyhow, just be warned Canadians using Oanda (Perhaps this applies to other merchants as well), if you use your VISA/DEBIT card to make a deposit, match the address perfectly. If you don't, the transaction will be...

    Oanda - Visa/Debit

    I guess your address was matching properly. There won't be an issue unless your transaction is declined.

    Oanda - Visa/Debit

    Oh well, I guess its for the best that people aren't allowed to rack up a huge credit card debt to trade forex. It took me quite a while to reach a point where I wasn't losing it all. Fortunately, my credit card limits were quite low while I was going through that losing phase. :) Now you'll...
