Nobody is going to fix this thing because everybody wants it to blow up. What we are about to witness is the final battle of American politics, a social versus capitalist Armageddon. The only way it can be "fixed" is with massive cuts in entitlement spending and massive increases in taxes...

Thanks for this thread. I would like to make a suggestion/request to FXCM. I understand that CFD trading of Gold and Silver is unavailable to U.S. residents due to federal regulations. However, is it possible for FXCM to provide the data feed and price history for these metals to US...

What republican wants to be in charge when the American people are forced to accept massive cuts in entitlement spending and have their personal taxes increased 20-50% ? Case in point, look at the outrage Scott Walker ( a republican) drew when he attempted government reforms in Wisconsin yet...

Amen, but I believe a change in the status quo is not going to happen. Your right, the Fed is acting like a 4th branch of government, an unelected branch with way too much power. However, recall their mandate is given to them by one of the most liberal congress' in history in an act which...

For those of you with a three year old mentality on this subject, maybe a cartoon will help to explain it better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VL7V9BnJXO8&feature=player_embedded

I submit that you want to shift those false signals in your original post as far left as possible and get them over quicker. If a price moves in a straight line and you give your trades equal amount of time to become a profit or a loss than we don't need to optimize a strategy with a time...

You want to minimize exposure time to the market. You want to gain profit in the fastest period of time. And likewise, get out of a loser as fast as possible. So try to optimize your strategy with two more variables, Tp, Tl Most strategies will optimize for P/L (P/(Tp+Tl) / L where...

GATT is completely correct. It's inflation. Price the cost of oil in something like gold and its relatively flat. If American's are going to rely on inflating the dollar to drag themselves out of a recession than their going to have to pay the price at the pump. They better get used to it...

Bernanke spoke on Friday 2/18. I'm not sure but I think he spoke on further QE as a possibility. However, that would not have resulted to the PA drop you're seeing. G20 was also meeting on Sat. they may have said something in their statement...

A couple teams of special forces equipped with stinger missiles could do the job in a couple of weeks at a fraction of the cost. I'd say give the missiles directly to the rebels but they'd end up taking down an airliner in a year or so. Their use would have to monitored.

More importantly is the meal after your workout. This is when you really want to load up especially with protein. During your workout your muscles should be broken down to the consistency of warm jelly. Your going to want to consume as much protein as you can to provide the material for the...

Technically if your workouts are "intense" your body will shut your stomach down and you will not want to eat anything. But very few reach that level of intensity. However, your muscles should be fed 8-10 hours ahead of a workout with a full meal consisting of protein, complex carbs, veggies...

I first heard this guy on Charlie Rose a few days ago. I was rather impressed. His criticism of Bernanke is probably why I liked him. His arguments against the debt are compelling and worth listening to. Anyway you can check out the interview here. He's kind of hard to follow but worth...

You really shouldn't be placing a trade to sell at 15:00 GMT on a Friday after the GBPUSD has moved down 230 pips in two days. But, you're doing the right thing by trying to learn from your mistakes. At the end of every day replay the market. Look at all the trades you took and ask yourself...

It seems to me the flight to safety is there. Safety being swiss franc and gold against all currencies (prior to today that is). What may be confusing you is the risk trade is still on. Equities,commodities are all up and that means dollar short. As long as the S&P is up look to sell...

The "Holy Grail" of trading is identical to the the holy grail of anything else. The funny thing is, everyone has it, but it's just that most don't recognize it because they've never seen it before. I would tell you what it looks like but that's impossible because it can't be described but...

Your probabilities become distributed. P(A,B) = (0.25, 0.75) P(X,Y) = (0.27,0.75) P | A B ---------------------- X | 0.1875 0.5625 Y | 0.5625 0.9375 search "joint probability distribution"

I think the developers of MT folks pretty much realized their platform MT4 platform sucks. That's why they came out with MT5. MT5 looks like it's geared for use with multiple brokers/data feeds and exchanges - not just forex. It won't surprise me if in a few years several brokers will offer...

The best response to "Why should we hire you?" Because if you don't, your competition will.

No 'L' is the international symbol for loser, as in losing your pension and property.
