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.

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 […]

Working through to get these guys set up and trading.  Lot of work really.  Getting agreements hashed out too.  Starting to work through my bigger institutional contacts as Seymour is certainly of institutional quality as are some of these others.  Building a great contact base with the blog and meeting some quality folks, very enjoyable.

Phenomenon

By admin • Jan 28th, 2008 • Category: ForexMx, HVB, K-3, Mansfield, SPCM, Sentiment

I’ve noticed an interesting phenomenon with the blog.  It seems that traders that want to raise money for their programs, initially anybody and everybody would come to me.  Now it seems as time goes on and traders realize I’ll post about them and their system, most managers contacting me are real, with real rcords and […]



New Forex Managers

By admin • Dec 12th, 2007 • Category: BlendedFX, Devrim, HVB, K-3, Mansfield, Mcelhaney, Paskewitz, Sentiment, Stop Finder

Have a bunch of new guys in the hopper, a couple we’ll be funding to watch, and then a handful that have come to us.  Blended FX we’re working with, though their numbers look great this one month or so, they do expect a 15% drawdown and say 20% or more is possible - 40% return annualized […]



Devrim rocks and rolls

By admin • Oct 23rd, 2007 • Category: Alderon, CBM, Devrim, Elite, K-3, Mansfield, Paskewitz, Sentiment, Swanson, VAM

Devrim to new highs, great to see.  K-3 off 1.3%, Elite up .5%, VAM to harsh new lows, off about 6% yesterday.  They’re pulling back their leverage as of today they told me.  Some of my guys are adding to this drawdown - may be a great play, VAM says it’s their max drawdown. Mansfield […]



Forex trader performance

Today we had some interesting things go on.  Got ahold of a friend of a friend who runs an FX fund paying out 1% a month no matter what, guaranteed.  They’ve got an arbitrage that’s quite solid.  Any interest let me know.
For our regulars, K-3 slipped .62% more, CBM down .48% more, Elite down .57%, Coe […]

Elite’s really fallen apart, steady downward spiral the last 5 days, down over 3%, still up  the last few months.  Devrim up .4% yesterday, love watching him trade.  K-3 holding steady after giving 8% or so back, up about a percent.  Coe slightly up, Fit actually up, we’ll see how that goes. Waste of money […]



Elite, Devrim, K-3

By admin • Aug 27th, 2007 • Category: Devrim, Elite, Fit FX, High Street, K-3, Mansfield, Paskewitz

Seems everybody made money Friday.  Devrim up, Elite up very strong - those guys are looking good, up a few percent on the month.  Fit FX up, Coe down, Mansfield up.  K-3 up great, nearly 20% on the month.
Got my southern boys in town this week so lots of partying and equity black box/grey box […]



Yossi/FRI

By admin • Aug 23rd, 2007 • Category: CBM, Coe, Devrim, Econophysics, Equity Tracking Software, FRI, Fit FX, High Street, K-3, Mansfield, Sentiment, Sentinel, Swanson

Not a ton going on lately.  Small hiccup with Yossi, apparently they will be running the system from their office, and it will run 100% of the time.  The track record has a bit of discretion in it - where the trader who built it would run it and turn it off around news, volatility, […]



New programs

By admin • Aug 3rd, 2007 • Category: Alderon, CBM, Coe, Devrim, Econophysics, Elite, FRI, Fit FX, High Street, K-3, Mansfield, Paskewitz, Sorrentino

For whatever reason I’ve come into a bunch of new programs the last few days, several of which are very interesting.  The FRI one I believe I mentioned, they’re still getting registered however so a bit of a delay there.  CBM looks good, getting some accounts going there.  And one just today from Sorrentino, an […]
