Nasir, the last discussion on orders here made me a leave for several months it got so bad, so I'm not the one to pick it up with. But what I care about is are the olympic a tradeable event? Or do they provide a comfortable fundie bias to place ...

I found adding toast to the cats head makes it far more accurate IMO. image

Back of a cat's head?

+10 Nate. Unreal. OP, the problem is getting any kind of reliable stats whatsoever. The IOC have a polyanna mutiplier they use to encourage bids, the govts are usually miles out, so you're left with private sector to plug the gaps. If you take this ...

London Olympics - Genuine Trading Opportunity or Far Fetched Idea?

I love the comments from FX sources, it's always the same. If they profited, it was an excellent resourceful intervention, if they didn't get a chance or lost on it it was cack-handed move by inept central bankers. I still think 1.2 was breached ...

SNB: will it or will it later? An order flow analysis

What a guy. It took me a couple of years to realise that you were the real deal, mainly because FF has a ton of sharks, wannabes, hustlers and people who can't even be straight with themselves, let alone other traders. Had everyone at FF read this ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Sary, if Oz puts aside money sensibly and doesn't buy off their electorate in times of plenty you are holders of some of the finest politicians in the world. In the UK, we had no such luck. I'd agree global demand drove mining in Oz, but equally ...

Barriers all erased but SNB remained bid at 1.2 so stops not triggered. Handy for some but I'm sure it was all strictly above board, cough. Tac, Re the options, puts are already in place so its delta hedging that'll gather momentum rather than stop ...

My understanding is you can trade OPM under PAMM arrangements up to 5 people without accreditation so long as you don't advertise your returns / solicit clients. Beyond that, you need to start swatting up for your exams. Given 2 years ago he was ...

Three likely options - ponzi-type scheme, soliciting clients without accreditation and claiming returns he never achieved. The usual.

Nasir, a few weeks back I was stationed for long on a dip on ECHF but bailed shortly afterwards for a couple of pips when I realise I was sat in a giant herd. Yes there is x bn of stops below 1.2 but much of that is stationed in puts, so you can't ...

Pretty similar read Assassin, though for the reasons above and more I'm short where I can for a long-term compounder. I've moved down to around 520/30 tops, not sure if we'll see it mind. Barriers @ 3000 at the moment will keep the range for a while.

I've been umming and ahhing over what this might be, and can only assume it's the launch of Tom Cruises new epic One Shot slated for Dec 2012, which promises to be so mind bogglingly bad it will kill every single person outright who even sees the ...

Trading the Apocolypse

imjscn, good luck with the eyes. In three months, three of my family have had eye ops (yes really three of them, reunions are like an army battle hospital at present). All three were naturally worried before the ops, all three of them had ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

That's got to put you in good stead for trading D. With the Aspergers I always thought of it as a sliding scale - the yes/no reading is pretty arbitrary but generally speaking anyone who can spend hours with charts and numbers is more likely to find ...
