    Health Care Passed

    Solution: 1. Buy all healthcare stocks as they are now public utilities. 2. Do not buy health insurance. Wait until you are sick or hurt then go to the emergency room. 3. Pay the fine for not having health insurance, which is cheaper than paying actual premiums 4. buy health...

    Proven Automted Trading programs

    +1 for FSS. That's an interesting way to trade it. I find that the equity curves sometimes "mirror" market action, so I try to find systems that have "flat-lined" so that I know a move is coming. I also like that you can exit trades manually so you can take profits even if a system doesn't.

    On Forex and their brokers

    With a 500 quid balance, it really doesn't matter where you go. You are going to get hosed on spreads regardless. Open a micro account somewhere, develop a mid/long term strategy and don't over-leverage yourself. FXCM has micros you can open for $25.

    Best Country for Trading (Tax efficiency)

    Does this apply to an Irish corporate bank account? i thought this plan sounded pretty decent. Im not irish but have dual with another country so I assume the same applies. As an aside, technically anyone born in the US is a US citizen-- think anchor babies. Does this mean that if they...

    Best Broker For Automated Trading

    So I'm about to take my trading from manually trading my signals to fully automated execution. I currently trade with FXCM UK and have been happy with them, but the only APIs you can use are for strategies coded in C++, and I happen to be in C#. They've offered to have their programmers...

    ECN broker with EUR based account

    DBfx is FXCM. Not just a white label of their platform. Don't believe me? Check out their respective mailing addresses. That said, if you like the platform, you could go with FXCM UK. I use their active trader platform (25K minimum) and have had no problems. Plus no NFA BS. regulated...

    Obama Plans to Raise $120 Billion From Banking Fees

    .....which will then be passed on to the customer. Pretty soon, the banks will resemble check-cashing centers, which is fine by BHO as half of his constituency already frequents them. Hopefully ACORN can sign me up for free healthcare as well while I wait...

    How come they dont offer live video to futures pits?

    Or for the same reason C-Span got shut out of the health care bill debates. Transparency, Washington DC style.

    forexmentor courses

    I think all these gurus and "follow my trades" type of education is garbage. Most of the time the guru is going to make his money on commission rebates on the back end after he gets you to open with one of his sponsored brokerages. That said, there is nothing wrong with trying to learn more...

    Anyone use EAs for MT4?

    Now before I get slammed for whatever may pass for a slammable offense around here, let me start by saying that I'm not looking for an EA that will trade my account for me, but rather some that I can use as a guide to help with my trading and give me ideas. I'm a total newb when it comes to...

    Credit Vs Debit Cards

    You can use your debit card as a credit card by electing to sign for the purchase rather than put in your PIN. Also, many debit cards offer airline mileage plans tied to its use. I haven't used a credit card in 5 years, have one, don't use it except to make reservations. Bought my car...

    Are US citizens allowed to trade FX with foreign brokers?

    I trade with FXCM UK. Active trader platform. No problems hedging, not getting hit by the reduced margin issue. The only difference, as has been already been mentioned, is that its not regulated by the NFA. Instead, I'm regulated by the FSA. Its not like they are registered in...
