Hey....is the Sept contest up yet? Can't seem ta find it? Am I 2 early on the trigger or r my ol Worn I's goin on me?
& any word on James...was that he who was here ystrdy?
Quite the Bikini Wax there :0
What time do ya want the Beekins truck over at your place?
Me thinks I got "Lost in Space"
So if not Dangerfield...perhaps Will Robinson....or better yet
Danger Will Robinson ;)~
Maybe some1 should dig a lil deeper & give the # that was listed @ the bottom of the article a call.....perhaps FXCM is doin some early damage control of sorts?
In your cosmic wet dreams ;)~
So what am I...choped liver?...I post this requirement stuff here ystrdy & not I person nibbled on it.....then Mr. Phenom shows up & all of the sudden itza hot thread....lol
Perhaps I should change my handle 2 Dangerfield :0
not according to post 14934
an excerpt here....
"FXCM's current financial situation well exceeds NFA's proposed requirements.
As of June 30, 2007, FXCM has over $44 million in adjusted net capital, and for the last six years we have had our financial statements audited by an independent, certified public accounting firm."
& just to set the record straight...I of course was ref to forexfenom w/re to the "the" James comment.
Is this "the" James?
If so....would like to rattle your brain for a few mins whenever u have some time ta spare.
& funny that it the article about the new proposed requirements came from some1 @ FXCM....go figya.
In post # 14934 I did a copy & paste job of an article about this that someone @ FXCM wrote.
"Unless the real estate downturn is much worse than economists are expecting, the declines will not come close to erasing the increases of the last decade. And for many families who do not plan to move, the year-to-year value of their house matters little. The drop is, of course, good news for home buyers."
& that in a nutshell is why the US economy will not get hurt as bad as many bears have been prediciting. Sure, some will get hurt & to what extent we really wont know for another 12-18 mos when the majority of sub prime teaser rates will adjust & become fully indexed.
However the gains over the last decade + were so great that it should be expected to give a lil back....& at this point the housing mrkt is only given back 1-2%....a pittance compared to the yr over yr double digit gains we saw for well over 10 yrs. I'll gladly give back 1-2% a yr for the next 2-3 yrs b4 we see a more "normal" rate of appreciation (aka a return to the mean)...around 5-7% a yr is the average increase over the last 30 odd yrs or so I think is the #.
Like I was sayin.....since 95 our home has gone up approx 275% in value & in our lil neighborhood we haven't even given back that 1-2% that was quoted....well we did but it has already gone back up & gained it back over the last 2-3 months....which is typical over the summertime when the housing mrkt shows strong annual #'s.
I just think the folks who expect to see a return of the 10% + annual increases w/in the next yr or 2 are going to be fairly dissapointed....that wont be happening imo...not for several more yrs...but a return back to the mean in 18-24 mos....I'll agree w/that 1.
The only way we'll get hurt w/re to the housing issue is IF the lions share of all those lofty gains are given back over the next 2-3 yrs......& frankly, I just don't see that happening...the sub prime issue will not have that drastic of an effect...no way.
Now if we have a recession & a few other negative macroeconomic impacting issues along w/it, then yes, prop values could get hurt in a significant way....which I guess is y Bernanake is finally seeing the light here by lower the fed rate by 1/2 a basis pt...somethin is tellin me he aint gonna be lettin the "R" word take him (or us) out :0
In Uncle Ben we trust.
seems 2 b doin well v. the yen/eom
If I happen to miss James manana I'd like to request that he leave a contact # if he doesn't mind.
Is there a specific time he plans 2 b here?
TIA!
Hmmmm....4 1 2 b savin all that income on an annual basis some1 else must be bankin some priddy respectible coin in your casa.
It's next to impossible for us to save any decent amt of coin these days. We're on 1 income here....& an elementary school teachers income at that....in California no less where it's priddy damn expensive to live to begin with & teachers aren't makin all that much ta boot....& she has 20 yrs of tenure as well....guess we can thank Arny The Governator in part for our teachers not gettin what they should...1 of the most important parts of our society is to raise & teach our kids is it not? Nope....instead we choose to pay our pro athletes ungodly wads of cash so they can create off field bad habits that our kids can idolize (insert Vick & Co here) :0
Gas just went down to 2.75 gal after bein in the $3.20 range all summer long. We consider it a good month here when we break even...& if not for our annual IRS refund that we count on we'd have ta put approx 50% of our annual property tax bill on a credit card.....which is around $2,100 a yr....our annual prop tax was $4,200 last year. & get this, we've been in our home now for over 12 yrs....so it aint like we just moved in. No way on earth we could afford this home in today's economy. At today's Cali prices if we bought now & put the same 20% down that we did in 95 we'd be lucky to have a 1K sq ft 2 bdr 1.5 bath CONDO! Fortunately tho we have ourselves a nice 2,100 sq 4 bdr 2.5 bath single fam home...on a nice court location....& a decent size lot too. The mortgage is fixed for 30 yrs @ 5.65% so we're doin all we can to hold on here....good schools, neighborhood & of course, it's Cali :))
So save you say....maybe when both kids are finally in school f/t & I get a paying job. So I hear ya w/re to bein a super saver....if we save $100 in any given month I feel as if we cut many corners......having said that....you'll have ta put a gun 2 my head to make me give up my 2 or 3 S'bux a week...NEVER!!!
The kids allowance will get 86'd b4 that ever happens...lol
OK....passin the soapbox over to some1 else....& to all you Super Savers out there....mo'powa 2 ya's....someday we'll be there but for now we'll be dog paddlin our lil hearts out just to keep our noses above the water line....& be thankful at the same time ;)~
Has any1 seen this & or has there been any talk of this here?
(note: it sure seems as if FXCM is running hard w/this one....lol)
"The Forex Industry Could Be In For a Major Structural Change Soon"
This change has the potential to benefit Forex Capital Markets, LLC (FXCM); however, we believe many forex brokers may not survive.
Our industry's regulating agency, the National Futures Association (NFA), has proposed new financial requirements for every Forex Dealer Member (FDM). Spelled out in their Request for Comments on Forex Proposals, dated June 19, 2007, the NFA's proposed requirements call for the following:
-All FDM's must maintain at all times a net worth of $5 million;
-Larger FDM's, particularly those that have a dealing desk, could potentially face net excess capital requirements significantly higher than the minimum under the proposed new rules;
-Where appropriate, the NFA may require an FDM's annual financial statement to be certified by an independent public accountant.
FXCM's current financial situation well exceeds NFA's proposed requirements.
As of June 30, 2007, FXCM has over $44 million in adjusted net capital, and for the last six years we have had our financial statements audited by an independent, certified public accounting firm.
We believe the NFA is proposing these requirements because of the troubling number of insolvencies and near-insolvencies that have recently plagued the forex industry. According to the NFA:
-In 2003, a Forex Dealer Member misappropriated almost $2 million in customer funds, driving the company into bankruptcy. (The CFTC is currently attempting to salvage some of the customers' funds.)
-Since March of this year, eight different FDMs have fallen under the early warning requirement of $1.5 million.
-More recently, NFA took a Member Responsibility Action ("MRA") against an FDM whose liabilities exceeded its assets by over $1 million.
-Industry-wide, there is now concern that some Forex Dealer Members may be unable to meet their financial obligations to customers in the event the increased capital requirements take effect. A review of the current net capital positions of the 43 Forex Dealer Members available on the following CFTC web page clearly demonstrates that this concern is justified. View CFTC Web Page http://www.cftc.gov/m...
As you can see from the financial data compiled by the CFTC, FXCM reports an adjusted net capital of over $44 million?far greater than the proposed financial requirement. Based on the most current available CFTC financial data, at least 22 FDMs would not be able to meet the new $5 million minimum net capital requirement. These firms are currently reporting net capital levels below $5 million. If the new capital level is imposed, these firms will either have to obtain more capital or close down. Because larger brokers may also face higher capital requirements, FXCM believes that several of these larger firms may also be unable to meet the new requirements, even though they presently have in excess of $5 million in adjusted net capital.
In the event that some of these firms close down?or worse, are shut down by the NFA?we are concerned that customer funds, or at least their timely and orderly repayment, could be jeopardized.
We realize that many forex traders have accounts with multiple forex brokers. That is why we advise you to make sure all your trading accounts are held at firms that are adequately capitalized.
If you have an account with a possibly endangered firm, we believe, depending on when the NFA proposal takes effect, that the time may be fast approaching to consider moving those funds while the opportunity still exists.
Our industry is changing, and the new proposed regulations are intended to put every FDM, and the industry itself, on a more secure financial footing. We welcome the NFA?s proposed changes because the effect will ultimately lead to clients trading through regulated brokers that are better capitalized or have access to greater financial resources.
Please contact us if you have any questions regarding these changes.
We look forward to serving you.

So then that 'splains it....I've been payin $4+ for a S'bux (grande soy marble mocha machiatto) & $1.95 on top of that for 3 pettite vanilla scones....no wonder my acct has been sufferin as of late :0
Best whip out the folgers instant & a loaf of Wonder.....now ya tell me.
& Cap....figured as much w/re to the Oanda notice...which is why I wasn't all that surprised...'specially bein that it was after mrkt hrs ta boot....thx for da confirm mah fren.
Off to Costco for a set of 4 Michellin's for the Saturn L-300....the original show roomtires (Firestones) only made it 31,600 miles....& no, it's not my car...it's the Mrs'...hence she's very e z on the car....we bought it new 8/04 & it took her this long to put 31,6 on it....wadda bunch of cheap arse Firestones those original tires were.....we rotated'em at least 4 x's too...5 I think it was. We shoulda got at least another 10K out of'em.
Oh well....there goes another $425+....Costco is given $80 off on a set of 4 thru 9/2 so I figure nobody is gonna be beaten that offer.
Now my only ? is...does the Costco tire shop serve up free coffee?
Cheers!!!
It's workin now...4 me anyways....as is the demo acct login page...BUT it wont log me into my demo acct...says it cant connect to the server.
Bein that it's the wknd now I suppose they are doin some maintenance...prolly stated so somewhere.
Has Oanda been down the last few hrs?
Cant even get the login page to load....the demo page that is....seems the live $ acct login page loads just fine.
Would love to speak with him.....
since my pewter time is fairly limited these days, if he's willing, could we get him to leave his work # ?
As you all know, I've been in heavy ? mode...from trading strategies to ideas to implement on trading platforms to jobs w/in the sector...I've got all sorts of ?'s to float his way....& I am sure you gents would much rather prefer I ask him than continue to litter this joint as I have been :0
Thx Don for inviting him to join us....great idea!
Cheers!!
I don't have enuff fam (or frenz 4 that matter) @ $5 a pop....gonna haveta do a lot better than that my friend(s)
U Kemosabe's sure r a hoot!! ;)~
Cheers!!
Should I not try & build a rep 1st....put a decade or so under my belt so I at least appear as if I have some experience?
Of course if you wanna be my 1st acct then we can talk...lol
Thx for the vote of confidence jus da same tho ;)~
Thx Tex....she appears to be on the mend now...FINALLY....it'll be 2 weeks manana post-op.
& what a post-op ordeal it was....unreal.
& 4 anyone else who replied w/good wishes for our lil 1....thx a kazillion....it seemed to have worked....sorry I have not been able to keep up w/the board here....let alone all things 4x.
Perhaps that will change w/in the next 2-3 weeks...after our oldest gets all setteled in w/her K'garten class that begins on Tues...this AM was a playdate at the park w/her class...get to know all the kids & parents thingy....& wadda hoot it was...the PTA had face painten, arts & crafts stuff...all the works goin on there they had for the kids....life is good.
"b4 your acct gets too big"
I should have such a dillemma
Presently lookin for various career moves into the 4x field....not workin for brokerages 'n such but more so as an associate portfolio advisor type of position....like at a smaller wealth mngmt type of boutique.
I'm sure there's positions at the larger "chop shops" such as Dean Witter, Smith Barney & the likes but I dont really wish to work in that type of environment...I do better in small/cozy environments where it is much easier to generate a rapport w/your co-workers & it aint so "dog eat dog"....if ya know what I mean.
Anyone have any comments & or knowledge in this arena?
TIA.
Still been really swamped as of late.....no time at all 4 4x....tho I did just go long on the turtle @ 116.010
Just throwin a dart is all via a quick glance @ the chart....@ this pt in this month's competition I dont really think it'll matter all 2 much for me....jus wanted to keep my bearings greased ;)~
Hope all's been well w/every1.
Cheers!!
No joke....me thinks w/this group that's the best way to go...at least over the past 2 mos......it's whoever loses the least...not makes the most....lol
Hmmmm....havin said that...will -17+% be good enuff for Aug? :0
LMAO!!!
Have had no time at all myself for 4x as of late.....still tryin to get the lil 1 back on track.....had ta take her into the ER on Sat night.....not eatin or drinken so we were gettin concerned w/the dehydration factor. Long story but the short of it was...after 4 tries they couldn't get a line in her for some fluids....damn f'n er rookies!!! & considering the lil 1 is VERY good w/needles....but after the 2nd try it was all over...she was done bein patient on the 3rd & 4th try w/it all....wadda absolute 4.5 hr er nightmare it was Sat nt. Wont get into all the other details but hopefully she'll start feelin better soon....still gotta keep a close eye on her fluid intake.....she dont wanna eat or drink anything & we're already 10 days post op now.
Hope every1 else is hangin in there & has had a better last few days then we have....which wouldn't be all that hard..lol
Cheers!!
I think it is...at least 4 me....I'm using the web based game platform.....been down all AM (pst) for me. It loads part of the way & then says it's fully loaded, yet it doesn't give current position status or realized & or unrealized pr #'s.
Me thinks the web based Oanda game platform is the bitch of all bitches on the Oanda site....the step child that gets no respect per se. As it should be I guess since the live $$$ downloaded accts should be top priority.
So if u r on this platform you will experience hit 'n miss reliability as my experience has been over there ever since signen on....approx 2 mos ago....not at all impressed. Whereas MG has been priddy damn near 100% w/re to their demo web based platform...dont really ever recall a time when I ever had a prob over there.
Still in search of a decent/reliable broker that offers comptitive spreads (w/trailing stops) and is user friendly.....have yet to truly find a site I can really sink my teeth into.
Anyone else havin probs w/Oanda?
Again!!
Perhaps they should think about changin their name to OhNada!!
& speakin of which....a ? comes 2 mind....
u woodn't happen ta know who "Miaow" is wood ya? ;)~
Me thinks there b more than 1 feline here in da litter box....lol
& indeed....weclcome aboard u caine u.....but note that there's no need to make such a disclosure w/re to doin 1's own dd & all your thots 'n opinions r jus that.....after all, if someone bases their investment advice based on what is said on a public message board, they deserve to lose every penny they have left....if any.
Indeed....do your own DD & trust no1....unless of course they've aleady had all their shots...but I don't think any1 here is up 2 date w/their shots anywho ;)~
Miaow....lol
Yup...me 2 so it's still n e 1's game.....my simple lil quick aus/usd scalp has turned quite ugly on me....has eatin up approx 66% of my profits thus far.....unF'nreal!! & just when I was begin'n ta look so good.
So now the aussie finally wants ta retrace....."impeckible" timin I have...lol
Realized pr + $3,056
Unrealized - $2,0980...& still fallin hard!!
Yeah...seen that 1 b4.....f'n depressing it be imo....I like the Toyota billboards they got up now for the Prius....the one that shows how many mpg are being saved each minute by all the Prius owners.....good stuff.
took me 2 school on that 1 u did.
Jester...believe it or not I dreamt that my reply to u was wrong w/re to my PR stat calcs....& wouldn't ya know it...it was. Guess there was somethin stuck deep back there in the bowells of my cranium that just wasn't sitten right w/what I had posted to u & I knew it.
Sorry about that.....u were prolly scratchin your head over my #'s & said..."ahhh fuggetaboutid" lol
So to set the record straight & correct myself...@ the time of my post last night you were NOT 7% ahead of me as I was sayin...more like double that @ 13% or more. Have no clue what on earth I was thinken or smokin 4 that madda. :0
So your lead was double over what I was babblin about.
Overnight my usd/chf L position hit my tp # & closed out....but that aus/usd long (the 1 I had just opened & was lookin for a quick scalp..lol) is still open & down approx 13 pips.....it's been worse & it's been better...& it damn near hit my tp point earlier this AM....but ever since it's been in tank mode.
So now the acct looks like this
Balance = $23,122.87 / 15.2+%
Realized PR = + $3,056 & change
Unrealized PR = - $267.95 @ this sec.
OK.....back to the back of the classroom for me.....which if we trust the Oanda calcs from last night....means the back of the class is 2nd place...lol Now c'mon Kimosabe's.....please don't allow me ta win this thing 2 mos in a row....as u can see....I need 2 b kept well grounded @ all x's or else I may start floatin ;)~
+ a 1 mos free live feed wont do ol' demo Worn a bit of good.....tho I guess I could use all the tools that come along with it...assuming the tools are included as well w/the feed? If not, than I suppose IF I successfully defend the thrown I should give it to 2nd place....or whoever is the highest finisher that actually does this stuff 4 real.
Or shall I open up a po'manz live $100 Oanda acct & make $1 trades? lololol
I was lookin @ 8410 or thereabouts...the former support.
Was thinken to bail at .84063 thus given me jus a lil wiggle room on that 8410....splitten hairs..yes I realize.
Not so sure now tho....it does seem as if it wants 2 continue to keep lookin for a lower line of support....could very well prove 2 b screwed on this one. Serves me right I guess for not considering 8400 & lil more seriously....tho it does appear to be makin a lil comeback as I hit the submit button here....
well u r short aus/usd & I jus went long @ .83951
jus lookin for a quick 'n e z scalp out of it tho....15-20 pips....looks like I shoulda waited another 2-3 mins...lol
So it is a prob w/the Oanda reprtoing calcs eh?
Well it does make sense as I do not think it would be all that fair to simply assume that all open positions would get margined out & then take those #'s into acct & use'em for the daily stats.
Sheesh...either Oanda is down or there's reporting errors, etc....tell me again what's so great about this platform other than giving a decent low ball spread? I guess the ol saying "u get what u pay for" applies here as well.
OK...so it sounds like u still have a 7% or so lead over me.....jus closed the book on my cable short w/a tp of approx $900+...placing my realized mtd gain @ $2,623 & change...or 13+ %
The only position I currently have open is L usd/chf...which is priddy much toyin w/b/e as I opened it @ 1.20479 a few day ago.
Not sure which way I wanna turn next...maybe a L turtle is in the makin? Tho no doubt as soon as I do that there's sure 2 b some more SP news to whipsaw my silly ( Y ) :0
& Don.....w/re to automated platforms....I'm lookin for 1 that will only charge a 1 time fee.....r u sayin the sites u just gave me do that for "cruise control" ?
Also.....the reason I'm lookin is not to do actually do it myself....I'm on a fact finding mission of sorts for the next possible venture. If I can't find a decent joint that offers cruise control for a 1 x fee, then me thinks there could be a mrkt for that.....undercut the well established big houses...which is why I had asked Cap if he had an interest in pursuing that ave. As always....thx 4 playin along.
Cheers!!
Cap 'n any1 else who has programming experience....
any thought of creating an automated program? A robot of sorts if u will.
my research has found that the mrkt out there charges anywhere's from 20-30% of all monthly profits as well as a 1-2% annual acct maintenance fee...depending on which site u use.
I'm of the belief that there's a (Joe Q. Public) mrkt out there that's willing to pay a 1 time fee for a service like this....say 3-4K.
I'd hate to simply give away 20-30%+ of all my profits...way to expensive.....whereas a 1 time fee seems far more reasonable.
Thoughts?
& w/re to the demo contest....a few thots as far as how the daily #'s are reported.....I'm now thinken that perhaps it takes into acct that w/any open positions one may have at the time a worst case scenario....as in gettin margined out....thus makin your pr not look nearly as good as it is w/re to your unrealized & realized pr's.
Does this sound right?
& wadda ya know....if I cashed out both positions right now I'd be up over 13%...& would this not put me in 1st? Unless of course T'Red, Jester, SQ has locked in a few winners since last night? Or perhaps someone else who was showing red has made a nice comeback as of late...guess ya never know who could be lurking in the shadows in this kinda mrkt.
& speakin of lurkers....w/re 2 those who have no trades whatsoever on the books for the mos (4 is my count)....are they 2 b 86'd or do we keep them in there ta help make the rest of us look a lil better? lol
OK....now 4 the OT ramble....finally back home after the lil 1's toncilectomy & adnoyd proceedure. Was touch & go for the 1st 24 hrs post-op. Bein that she's fairly young 4 this kinda proceedure (23 mos) I guess it's not as e z as it is for the 3 yr olders & up. We had to spend an extra night at the hospital....we were only supposed to be there overnight but her 02 levels weren't high enuff the following day. So we got home last night after dinner time. Now we just gotta get thru the next 10 days or so & hopefully she'll finally able to sleep thru the night. It's been the better part of yr now where if she sleeps 4 hrs straight thru that's a good night...her toncills & adnoyds were soo big that it was hard 4 her to breath thus she'd wake up all po'd cuz she wasnt gettin adequate levels of o2...so now that should all be a thing of the past. When she's asleep now we can already tell that her breathnig is way better than before....actaully starting to breath out of her nose.....she never even knew that's how u were supposed to be doin it all along...lol So no more snorin louder than grandpa....man alive was it strange ta hear a 22 month old snore as loud as she did....at times we thot a freight train was about ta run right thru the house :0
Ok....nice 2 back.....tho I betcha u all enjoyed a nice lil break from the ramblings of ol' Worn...lol
Sounds more like a Gecko move....as in Gordon Gecko :0
Now there's some scary chit goin on there...sheesh....if it's 2 good 2 b true eh.
OK....back up to a 8.5% realized PR...still a 'lil' under water tho on the long usd/chf by 67 pips w/an entry there @ 1.20476
Wont be around for another 36 hrs or so as we go in early manana for an overnighter at the hospital 4 the lil 1's toncilectomy & adnoid removal.
As Don said....do keep the light on 4 us.
It'll be nice to begin the new trading week on Sun w/a PR in the green.
Cheers!!
Yeah....if I woulda closed out all 3 of my positions ystrdy am (when I shoulda as opposed to just lettin'em run as I have) I'd be a little closer to you at this stage. Now I'm just about right back down to where I was b4 ystrdy AM....Grrr!!
Guess the mrkt has answered my ?....for now it looks like a trading range (turtle & cable) as opposed to a new trend developing.
So I sit 'n wait it out yet again.
Moscow Circus was a hoot ystrdy....tho I think we saw the AAA team....the 1's who are hoping to break into the big MS show....the show we saw was free thus they made a few mistakes & the "stunts" they were doin quite honestly weren't as impressive as I've seen that Co perform in the past on TV....in fact some of the stunts may very well have been more on the lines of psuedo "magic" per se. Funny how water in a glass (that's being balanced on a forehead while standing on 1 foot on a very small platform) is splashing around all over the glass while thee glass itself isn't moving at all....can u say "glue" ? lolololol
At any rate....the kids had a blast & we were all entertained...weather at the beach was perfecto....a sunny 75 & w/very lil wind to speak of & the rides were a blast too. All in all a great X.....& now I'm pooped out...so it's back to reality w/the end of summer upon us & now we get ready for the lil 1's overnight stay Fri night & 2 weeks of recovery X to follow. I see many a sleepless nights ahead for me....perhaps I'll be trackin the 4x mrkt at hrs that are not typical for me (1-5a pst) over the next 2 weeks or so.
OK....gotta run...not much time today for the mrkt either....bein pulled from all ends here to do stuff.....this that & the other....though nothing I really wanna do....lol
Cheers!!
Indeed....finally showin some more green w/the Oanda acct....back up to almost 5%....just about where I was before goin under aqua a few days ago. Got up a fast 4.75% from the 1st trading day of the mos.....& then smaked right back down by 10% just like that. Finally back to showin a lil respectibility.
& only 1 mrktg call from forex.com over the last 2 days...so it most certainly is shapin up 2 b a fine day....especially since we're packin up now (well not me...I'm "workin" on the computer while the Mrs' packs up the kids & all our beach stuff...lol) & it looks like we're gonna catch the Moscow Circus there on the S.Cruz Boardwalk today.....kewl deal. Never seen that act b4 but I've always heard itza real hoot....lookin 4ward to it.
Enjoy the cable fall & usd/chf rebound as I have been...albeit while asleep...lol
Cheers!!!
Mo'powa 2 da both of ya's.....
& thx 4 playin..."find that quake"
;)~
