that's putting your money where your mouth is. Your not into risk management at all? don't have the patience for a more moderate gains?
If you win, will you continue to risk your entire account on your trades? I am not having a shot at you personally acumen. I see your 10v and I know some pro's go in heavy and take big risks sometimes. However, for the benefit of any inexperienced traders including myself, I make this point. I have lost alot of money needing to be right about my market view. I am still tempted every day to back my view with a big...

i'm never wrong.

the market is from time to time though.

money management is the key to longevity when it's wrong.

Anybody around here been trading long enough to remember the good old days? You know, when good news in the US was good for the dollar and would cause it to strengthen? Vice-versa for bad news? We've been in Bizzaro land for so long now that it seems it has become the new normal. Anyone like to venture a guess as to when this crazy correlation will end. All of this double and triple interpetation of the news is making my head hurt!

[AUST TREASURER SWAN] places a further dampener on Aussie sentiment by warily commenting Australia's economic recovery remains fragile, with some still hefty challenges ahead for the nation. More bearishly, Swan says he expects the jobless rate to "rise substantially" and notes the big decline in hours worked is dampening incomes. The Treasurer also warns a sustained recovery in major nations is not assured and that a planned gradual withdrawal of stimulus is thus appropriate. A strangely bearish round of comments by the Treasurer especially after the Govt just revised up its near term growth forecasts in Mondays latest mid-yr economic and fiscal outlk; and also revised down the jobless rate sharply to now peak at 6.75% in FY 2010 vs May's f/c of 8.25% in FY 2010 and 8.5% in FY 2011, 02:52 GMT - [STG/YEN] remains flattish around the 148.00 axis since the pair climbed back to the 148's in NY time yesterday. UK government's total funds injection of Stg45.5bln to RBS (84% stake) indicates Europe's huge financial institutions' financial condition is not improving at all, and financing risks are being switched to government from private sector with government forced to hold leverage called guarantee with bad debts. Real estate conditions would not improve immediately, so maintaining AAA rating would eventually become the key issue at the end. The pair enters into the Ichimoku cloud (145.97-151.37) that is descending, and inability to breach it upside would lead to a negative picture.

This week is the first time in months that gold has actually gotten more expensive in real terms. The original breakout was done on the back of a falling dollar???????

[UK BANKING SECTOR WOES] continue, with HSBC announcing it will cut 1,700 jobs in the UK over the next year as part of a restructuring of its UK retail banking business. The move adds to the worsening unemployment situation in the financial services industry; and comes just a day after RBS said that it planned to cut 3,700 more retail banking jobs. Sterling has been whippy, but remarkably resilient especially against the crosses, after the Govt's announcement of an ongoing bailout of the UK banking system. The move to pump in an extra GBP 25.5bln into RBS along with a new GBP 8 bln pot of reserves intended for emergencies only, makes it the biggest bailout package of its kind in the world, with Chancellor Darling also seen warning the Bank may need even more taxpayers funds to return to stability.

Traded (equity) markets in late 80s/early 90's, but Asian not the western. Those were the days when once Asian tigers became cats. Even in those days, got a feeliing that western markets respond too quickly to a news (or its headline) whereas Asian markets although reacted but not fully on the first day. Economics were very simple - negtive factors - currency went down, economy good - currency went up.

But the world is a bit complicated with USD for a variety of reasons, inlcuding - USD is also the reserve currency and therefore several factors affect its demand not only what goes on in the US economy, more US spending does not necessarily mean better GDP, business use high leverage not only to expand or BMR but also to use it for short-term working capital to maintain their capability of operating at normal operating capacity.

It is like trading heavy positions with 1:400 leverage day in and day out, a two pip move against the positions requires quick response (or urge for quick response).

Model accounts who were buyers in the [AUD/USD] yest turned sellers today after the release of worse than expected Aust retail sales data sending the pair to an intraday low around the 0.8955/60 level. However, market chatter of a huge buying order from an ACB has seen the pair bounced sharply back above the 0.9000 handle to currently trade at the 0.9005 level. However, with fresh offers at 0.9040 by a German and more at 0.9075, any upside correction will be a hard fought affair with risk now squarely to the downside.

this will cheer you up

[USD/CAD] rose to an o/n high of 1.0855 as the Loonie was under pressure from weak equity markets and lower crude oil prices which slipped below the $77 level. European bank troubles also raised concern that the global financial crisis has not been fully resolved also weighed on the Loonie. However, the Loonie made an about turn as crude oil prices reverses its earlier losses rising nearly 2% while gold prices jumped to a fresh record high of $1087 supported by report that the IMF sold 200 tons of gold to the Reserve Bank of India for more than $7.0 bln. That knocked the pair down to an o/n low of 1.0656. With no Canadian data due today, the pair will look to the equity & commodity mkts along with the FOMC decision for direction. On the day buying orders at 1.0615 by a UK Clearer will provide support & selling orders at 1.0320 by specs will keep the range this session.

I almost never trade Beaver Buck. I have too good a knowledge about the incompetence and venality of our pokiticians..

Usually CAD is not influenced as much by gold as some other currencies. Mostly for CAD watch the crude price. A little known drag on the Canadian economy over the past year is the artificially low gas price (Canada produces much more gas than oil)
