    Average price of signal service?

    Certainly 1% a week. I am really more talking about the existing prices out there, not the actual value.

    Do full-time forex traders exist or is it just make believe?

    Some do exist, but there are indeed fewer 'success' stories in forex than commodities or equities. Take ET for example. There are several traders who have made it in equities for years (lescor for example) but none in forex/Sp500. I believe that the elephant in the trading rooms (forums) is...

    Is Tim Sykes really a scammer?

    What's your point? It's not a lie that he front runs. Under these conditions it's not possible to replicate his trades (or trade penny stocks the way he suggests). So his claims are false and misleading, so who is lying? What's up with the trend of protecting and speaking up for outright...

    Is Tim Sykes really a scammer?

    You obviously came very late to the party. Nobody is questioning his trading results. They are real. What is being questioned is other traders' ability to replicate them as it seems that he uses order flow from his followers to provide liquidity and push the markets in his desired direction.

    Is Tim Sykes really a scammer?

    marketsurfer, This thread has now become about you justifying why Tim is not a scammer vs the other readers of the thread. So far you have brought no solid proof and I can imagine that considering how engaged you are in defending Tim, there must be some personal reason/investment behind this...

    Is Tim Sykes really a scammer?

    Yes, legit for himself no doubt with his followers moving the market for him. But could he time penny stocks without them?

    VIX as a stock?

    Is there an ETF that will track the movements of the VIX exactly, so that one can hold it long-term (ie. value invest) without decay? I think I already know the answer, but wanted to just make sure.

    Way to achieve highest leverage (without risk of being washed out)

    This does not exist. I know what you are thinking, but leverage is essentially credit and needs to be payed for one way or another. The leveraged ETFs have built in decay and do degrade over time. They are meant for trading, not for long-term holding. Leverage without time decay via options...

    'Germany's anti-euro party is a nasty shock for Angela Merkel'

    Yes, but what happened before is that Germany was put under pressure by its neighbors (France, UK) and the US to pay what was considered by many Germans to be unfair war reparations after WWI (Marshall Plan). I find there to be similarities between this and Germany having to support/bail out its...

    'Germany's anti-euro party is a nasty shock for Angela Merkel'

    When the larger parties start to break into smaller fragments it has historically been a warning sign (not a correlation). But here you go: Radical liberalism (extreme multiculturalism), debt bubbles (1929), over-extended social welfare payments, declining traditional values, rising...

    'Germany's anti-euro party is a nasty shock for Angela Merkel'

    This is just like during the 1920s when these types of fragmented political parties started springing up all over the place. We all know what happened next. The writing is on the wall, but I doubt most will see it until it is too late.
