    the best moving averages to trade Forex are...

    Well, take a highly liquid fx pair like EUR/USD that is harder for a single player to move during peak time. This is the kind of pair that would probably more readily respect short term MAs as R&S. However, I think that cross-over systems are more popular over the short term. Like with any...

    real "miracle" stories of growing a "micro/mini" FX account...you have one?

    It can be done, but the odds of sustaining such returns until the compounding has any real effect are against you. Get capitalized, cut the leverage and follow the hedges fund flows (and earn swap), it all becomes so much easier then.

    Thanks. Indeed, it's all about risk management. Unfortuantely, by the time most beginners realize this its already too late. If your win/lose ratio falls below 50% (more losing trades then winning trades) and you are still returning positive gains, then your on your way to longevity in this...

    the best moving averages to trade Forex are...

    It depends on the time frame. 200MAs works surprisingly well from the 5M to the Weekly. 20,50 and 200 are the standard. The higher the time frame, the stronger the R/S levels will be. I don't think that cross-overs are that useful, but if you have a look at the monthly S&P500 chart with...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    "While the fees would be a trivial expense for what the general public tends to think of as ordinary traders — people investing in stocks, bonds or other assets for some reasonable period of time — they would amount to a much heavier lift for speculators, the folks who bring a manic quality...

    It hit .75 in Oct 2002 and then toped off at around 40 bucks 5 years later. Did the market misprice this stock to begin with or was the company rescued by new management? What happened...

    The bottom is in...this time its for real

    We are at 20, and even 15 is high! Also, I never mentioned anything about high interest rates. I was talking about an over-extended credit market (not necessarily the same thing). Also, the last time we diped below 10 was around 1982 and yes, yields were very high. However, we had already...

    The bottom is in...this time its for real

    You give no proof that the bottom is in. Yes, the market always bottoms before the economy (wall of worry, etc.). But that doesn't mean that the decent won't continue and without further proof, you are simply gambling. The only other time a bear market ended with a P/E higher than 10 was in...

    I challange anybody here to show me where in this article the author makes a good argument for buying stocks. Quoting Charles Dickens doesn't cut it, this is investing, not English lit!

    The bottom is in...this time its for real

    Oh sure, "the bottom is clear". What a bunch of BS. At a yield level where you would usually sell your stocks!!!! We have a bunch of perma bulls to weed out.

    Why don't Americans save?

    Europeans save? Really? You are stuck back in 1980. Why do you think Germany now has a TV show called "Raus aus den Schulden"? (transl. Get out of debt) http://rtl-now.rtl.de/rads.php
