take it as a compliment, the Australian Dollar is the most important currency I trade, and is often used as a proxy for the China economy. They need to show us who they love more, China or USA, and this kind of crap doesn't bode well for USA.wow. just... wow.
Let's not get into an argument about the geopolitical realities that drive Australian foreign policy......
ASIC shut down Pepperstone - an AUSSIE FX broker - operating in Japan due to the same issue. Good governance isn't something to bemoan. If we'd have had a bit more of it out of America and Europe prior to the GFC maybe we'd all be in better shape at present.... well - aside from Greece
Pepperstone forced to shut Japan operations
BTW - I only bit because you said Aussies have an annoying accent. Let's not pretend that the Yanky accent is music to everyone's ears either
I'm from Indiana. Our accent is so bland (like everything else in this state) that during WWII every ship in the Navy had a hoosier (that's what they call us) as a loudspeaker announcer because that was the only accent a sailor from Brooklyn and a sailor from Georgia could both understand.Let's not get into an argument about the geopolitical realities that drive Australian foreign policy......

otherwise we need to see a little more love from you Aussies if you want us to be your friend and trade your dollar
You want more loving from Aussies?
From the Australian perspective, the FTA we signed with America was the closest thing to being screwed with your pants on that we've ever experienced as a country....
I'm not here to argue or troll your legitimate grip. I'd be pissed if I were in your shoes. But maybe "Death to Australia" is a bit incendiary to Aussies like me... I was simply standing up for my country
Good Trading.
ok my friend, what are they saying about aud over there? I know both aud and usd need to go down, and you are winning that war hands down. We've been hearing Death to America for years, they are still saying it, so Death to Australia is our way of saying, "Congratulations, you are now a player."

It's more or less the same. The regulator in Australia withdrew the license by requiring IB to obtain a "variation" of its existing license. One and the same.
Dumb redneck. Indiana ...give me a break. Aussies are 100 times cooler than most Americans I occasionally hang out with at bars in Hong Kong. I hope you are not serious about all that previous USA blabber. Ridiculous...
