No. Just an apparently reputable source in English I came across while searching for Yuan forward quotes online.

Yep, it would make life easier not to mix'n'match. Easier is not necessarily more profitable, though, in trading... I can think of a few plausible reasons to simultaneously watch spot and trade futures. But I don't want to put words into another trader's mouth. Maybe you could ask him why...

Well, it's certainly possible, if somewhat cumbersome, depending on the currency pair. The price difference -- premium or discount -- between a currency future and corresponding spot forex pair reflects the interest rate differential between the 2 currencies, accrued between now and the...

On a closer look, you are absolutely right. I stand corrected... thanks for the heads-up. Ironically, I myself said in the original post, "Note that the USD/CNY NDFs trade in Hong Kong on the OTC market, so you'll find some variation among dealers." Of course, ICBC is a Chinese domestic...

Here is one good source in English, updated daily, from Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, the country's biggest bank: icbc.com.cn Date： 2005-07-15 　　　　　　　　　100 UNITS OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES Terms USD/RMB Mid...

BO = breakout.

Vikana, what is it that you found ambiguous about tax advice from GreenTraderTax on reporting gains / losses from spot forex transactions? Thanks.

This gives you exactly the information you need, to start your homework: http://www.fx-review.com/ Note: not only am I not affiliated with them in any way, but they have nothing whatsoever to sell to anyone, period. Yes, strangely enough, such websites do exist in this day and age.

SMA (simple moving average) and MA are one and the same. See the "Books" tab above for some recommended TA titles. Before talking about "real trading for a steady income" within the next 6 months, why not open a demo account with any forex broker and challenge yourself to become consitently...

You've made some good (and funny) points in this thread, but your presumption about fx-review.com happens to be off. Just because an apparent crook has linked to it, doesn't make it crooked in itself. (And it has no review of anything named "Vortex" or similar.) All fx-review does is offer...

Interactive Brokers offers each of those OCA order types for forex.

I hope you realize that your trade size does not have much to do with either your original inquiry or with Sanjuro's question. What he was really getting at was -- what is your typical risk (stop loss), expressed as % of the account net value, when your potential reward (target profit) is 5%...

In addition to RTH box being checked, Configure - Order - Stop Trigger Method must be set to "Default method", not "Last method".

Here's one good forex P&L calculator: http://www.oanda.com/products/fxmath/profit.shtml Note: 1 lot = 100,000 units. In your example, profit is USD 2,450. Divide that P&L number by your beginning account balance, before the trade, to get % return at the account level. If you really...

Interesting... yet another virtual "mirror" website of www.traderslibrary.com (look under "Contact Us"). Just like www.superbookdeals.com, all run by the same company from one location. One way to increase market share... is that what's known as the Kellogg (or Post) "cereal isle" strategy?

There are a number of book-specific online price comparison engines. This one has long been my favorite: http://www.fetchbook.info/ Why I like it a lot: minimalist, no-frills interface design (ISBN, title, author, keywords)... comprehensive, customizable results... very fast... the...

Well, I feel your pain, but I don't think IB had anything to do with that spike. I was watching my screens live at the time (6:54 pm EST). Note the volume blipped as well: 6:49 ... 2 contracts 6:50 ... 4 6:51 ... 26 6:52 ... 58 6:53 ... 157 6:54 ... 350 6:55 ... 55 6:56 ... 1 6:57...
