A man and his wife are lying in bed, the wife asks her wealthy husband if he has any idea how to she could enlarge her breasts, he replies, "Take a roll of toilet paper and rub it between the middle of your breasts several times a day, that will do the trick" The wife replies, "Are you...

I must admit to feeling somewhat disappointed as I had hoped to see tangible evidence in the form of two charts that unequivocally display the fundamental change in market dynamics that have or are allegedly occuring, something that I observe has failed to materialise. As there is no evidence to...

Aslong as the leader wears a camouflage jacket, what's the problem? The USA would have harmonised itself with middle to far eastern practice, and therefore we can anticipate economic expansion due to improved relations.

The OP is clearly a genius, I'm looking forward to the concrete example in the form of two charts, one modern and one historical, proving the fundamental change that has taken place due to "information overload". This is truely incredible and groundbreaking analysis, kudos indeed.

Great input and some interesting considerations regarding fear and the inability to overcome losses. My system uses the 1 min timeframe as I find that this is the best timeframe to prevent over trading whilst also providing the opportunity to find upto 20 trades per day (dependent upon the...

I like you, your a real funny guy !

They told you to go screw ? I suggest that you advise them that you will report them to the National Futures Association unless they can prove that the spike was legitimate (confirmed by reuters or bloomberg). The NFA fine brokers who execute activities that are defined as unacceptable...

It's not possible to have negative interest rates ? Oh, so it isn't possible to pay people to take out a loan is it not ? And here is me thinking that we live in a world of wealth creation. :)

I must say that there have been some excellent contributions to this thread (thankyou) and it is apparent that most if not all replies have been placed by traders who actually make a living out of the markets. It is certainly not a coincidence that consistent profitability is intrinsically...

talknet, Do you feel frustrated at the fact that Oanda has survived and will continue offering traders the opportunity to speculate long into the future ? No offense, just a passing thought.
