I also find this thread funny, watching a broker trying to defend itself when stealing from a client. Yes, agreements exist so that any trade can be reversed in the brokers favor. However some of the trades in the original picture were open for over ...

It's interesting how one mans positive is another mans negative. I've never minded some sort of e-check transfer, however credit card deposits are always a red flag to me. It says they are perfectly willing to allow their clients to trade with debt ...

hedging - A new flavour of trading

Well North Finance has been around longer than alot of the NFA regulated firms out there, 2001. Recently the NFA has proved it's inability to protect any clients, and many of it's actions have actually harmed any clients involved. So I guess... if ...

How is FXDD getting away with no cap nor registration?

I don't know why this has taken 2 pages. Nothing in life is riskless, and even less so around here. You shouldn't be on a forex forum asking for any riskless return, even 1%. That money is at risk once you wire it to a broker. It really is that ...

friend wants to leave 100k, for 5%, riskless profit.

I agree that this current fall is a correction and it will resume the uptrend at some point, however I will continue holding my shorts until signals are given that the reversal is over. I'm not willing to say it will turn at 1.4, only that it will ...

The forex has not been declared a "future" and therefore the NFA actually has no jurisdiction over it. The only power the NFA has over forex brokers is the power the broker gives them when they "agree to be regulated" by them. Once the broker signs ...

How is FXDD getting away with no cap nor registration?

I remember the first time I demo'd Oanda a while ago I executed a trade for like +20 pips and couldn't figure out where my profit was. I had put in the margin size and actually made like 20/100's of a dollar or something.

Question about "super micro accounts"

I think he is talking about the candles being in different timezone format, which really is the problem with all the different charting software. 1 mt4, or any other charting software for that matter, has a 4hr candle that ends at gmt another ends ...

Any effect with charting MT4 but executing trades with non-MT4 broker?

Minutes, like meeting minutes and fundamental speeches? The Metatrader Forum might not be the place, however depending on the speech the log could be anywhere. Generally if it is important atleast a summary can be found here at forexfactory. You may ...

where and how can know the result of every meeting?

The reverse EA's are, in my opinion, more a study of the money management involved in this method than looking for some uber profitable rule set. I find it interesting.

Ugh, people need to stop linking ForexBastards. Although I have no opinion on Crown, I do know nothing on that site is as it seems. It's all news traders and the reviews are approved by the owner and not posted if he doesn't personally agree. Read ...

have you ever have problem with Crown?

A 4hr downtrend equals a fib retracement on the daily uptrend. Atleast thats the target on my sells the last week or so. When the 4hr down trendline breaks to the upside, hello 1.5

EURUSD

Blah, the government has no business bailing these people or companies out. These companies made high risk loans to people who didn't deserve them. They are high risk and therefore are high interest. That is simply the market they are in. They ...

Bush to outline 5-year rate freeze plan: sources
