The same idiots who proclaim it's "global"economy and its great for the US are the same idiots who laugh at you when you denominate their gains in anything else but USD. If you're gonna think globally, then your gains as a country have to be thought of globally. It's a global economy for...

I always used qlink to import intraday data into excel. I just tried and I am only getting data going back to the 9th of this month. Whats going on? I used to get years of intraday data. I checked and now esignal is saying you can only get 60 days worth?? Is this a new thing? B

Hate to beat a dead horse here but straight out playing the indexes to the long side with no leverage doesn't work "globally". The USD$ dropping cancels it out and more. I am beating US indexes in my Canadian checking account. So you have to leverage yourself+3 times over to overcome the...

Why do you buy the US indexes? Just convert your money to CDN$ and right there your beating the S&P. Then just buy Canadian Indexes. Or just buy the EWC on the NYSE. Kills the US Indexes. The EWC is up +17% in a month thnx to the collapsing dollar. Plus its Canada so its safe.

but I always have overnights for that amount. I will be paying margin interest for sure. Might as well just buy the CAD futures, it would be cheaper.

I exchanged everything except 1/5th of my account on that cut. I am getting killed on that freakin 1/5th!!! What do you do for overnights? You need USD cash for overnights no? I exchange profits every few weeks to canadian but the rate is dropping so fast im getting my butt kicked on those too!!!

I'm fed up of making these USD$.. Down another +120 pips against the CAD..WTF..

I've been whining for seven years now. I'm way passed that. Now Im more in the semi-catatonic, nervous breakdown sitting in my rocking chair talking to the wind phase. I wish I could share your optimism. I agree with you that a global recession would potentially be great for the USD, but in...

ya it's gonna be great for exporters when the dollar will be worth zero. Export all sorts.

do you mean over the last 30 years or something?

The amount is not exactly the same. There are tax consequences to your hedge. If you make or lose money on the futures you have to pay or deduct from taxes. You have to put on more than the amount of USD have.

US aint #1 anymore. Rates are going up everywhere in the world except in the US. Why is that?

Ya and that's why the dollar hasn't been dropping and isn't at all-time lows.

As long as its an inflationary run economy the dollar will drop. Market up, dollar down. Why wouldnt they do that until they couldnt anymore? The fed has shown that he'll pump money into the system without blinking. So much money thrown at this market. The dollar will keep going down to a level...

The dollar was going up before they lowered rates and pumped more money into the system.

It's not about meals in paris. If the dollar drops more than this we are getting to levels where there will be crazy inflation within the country. Otherwise why not just let the dollar drop to nothing if its good for the economy? Point is right now the US market seems to only go up at the...

Back to the crushing of the dollar with a rising market. Is it back to the same old situation? Unbelievable. That was the easiest trade I've ever made.

Forget the Dow bro. USD is finished. You're making worthless paper. I have a spreadsheet of the main ETF's on my screen. Energy, other countries, other currencies. They are ALL up, EVERY day! SPY and DIA are never at the top. All this melting up and still underperforming everything...

Why buy the YM? Look at everything else. Anything non-US is up double. Canada is up 1.5% today and over 15% on the year...Brazil up 1.75%. Forget the YM.
