Forex Risk Disclosure Statement


Forex (FX) trading carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. Forex can be traded with a high degree of leverage, which can work for you as well as against you, and it is possible to loss more than you invest. You should only invest funds that you can afford to lose and do not need to support yourself or your family. You should carefully consider all risks involved with forex trading as well as your financial situation, investment objectives, and risk tolerance before investing. Forex is traded over-the-counter (OTC) and not on a regulated Exchange.

Back in Action

By admin • Jul 28th, 2008 • Category: 007, Devrim, HVB, Ian

Back from my sailing trips.  We placed well in the race and had a great time on the cruising in the North Channel.
Looks like Devrim has recovered losses this month.  A ways to go but seems he is back.  I finally got him on the phone today.  He is as confident in his system as […]



Managed Accounts and Sailboat Racing Next Week

By admin • Jul 18th, 2008 • Category: Alderon, Ash, FBT, Ketch, Lonestar, Mansfield, PTI, Uncategorized

I watch five managed futures accounts for a client - four of five of them are up over the last two months, which is about when I started watching them. Pretty impressive, some options sellers, some traders, one program I believe is soft closed. Anyways it’s fun to watch them run, if […]



New Managed Accounts

By admin • Jul 17th, 2008 • Category: 007, Devrim, Genoa, Ian, Paskewitz, Sentiment, UFX

Opening up some new guys - none of which are compensated on trading volume, which I like. Rove started today, Forex System Research we’ll get opened over the next week or two, and Long/Short Timing mailed in yesterday, which is actually a mutual fund timing program with solid numbers we’re excited about, low drawdowns […]



Managed Accounts

By admin • Jul 16th, 2008 • Category: Uncategorized

Just got a line on a new managed account run by a friend who has run over 300 million in the past. He’s been in the same business as us for five years, combing through these managers just as we do, testing them out, looking for the diamond in the rough. He is […]

Devrim to new lows - whoa.  He has some rearranging of his business going on - I suspect that has been affecting him, hopefully it will be squared away soon if it isn’t already (doesn’t seem to be).  I have my allocation shaved down.
My Rove allocation process continues today, hear some happy folks.  Looks like […]



Devrim new lows

By admin • Jul 11th, 2008 • Category: Devrim, Ian, UFX

Devrim to new lows, nobody likes that. I’ve dropped my allocation to under 1:1. He’s sure struggling lately, I suppose it’s part of the game for his trading style but wish it wasn’t down so much. We’ll see what happens.
Ian no trades. Still haven’t gotten Rove allocated but high on my […]



FX Managers

By admin • Jul 10th, 2008 • Category: 007, Armada, Devrim, HVB, Ian

Ian flat, up 2% on the month so far, good to see.  007 doing well, up over 4% on the month I’m told, terrific to see.  Swing starting soon at PFG.  UFX also starting Monday, on another account he made some money today.  Known him for a while, hope he pans out.  Armada is also […]



Update

By admin • Jul 8th, 2008 • Category: Uncategorized

Back from a week and a day’s vacation late last night - I’ll make it more clear next time I take off, or will have someone that works with me post in my stead.  Getting back in the groove.
Triton in the tank, loser after loser, have asked him to stop trading for at least a […]



Weekend

By admin • Jun 27th, 2008 • Category: 007, Devrim, HVB, Ian, Q, Triton

Devrim on or near his lows for the month, looks like he’ll finally have a down month and big one at that.
Went live with UFX today, first trade a winner, bodes well.  I like his record and will really like it if it proves to be true.  I think it will.
Triton no trading, collecting his thoughts, […]



Tough Month, Good Month

By admin • Jun 26th, 2008 • Category: 007, Devrim, ForexMx, Ian, Mcelhaney, Paskewitz, Triton

Many guys are struggling (but many aren’t, see below), Devrim most notably so.  Not sure what to say about his program except it would be real nice to have it back in the black.  Looking like his first down month may be inevitable, makes his record look more realistic.  Matador off 2% on the month.  […]
