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 lose 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 […]



New FX Manager update

By admin • May 20th, 2008 • Category: Devrim, Ian, PTI, Swanson

Triton rolling along, doing as he said. He’s up in his own account as he has access to CADCHF, down for me since starting about 4-5% as he doesn’t have access to CADCHF at PFG, which has paid him well. So it goes, CADCHF should be available at PFG soon so we’ll be […]

Still working and prodding to get deals done.  SPCM coming along nicely, should be ready in a week or two.  PR Program in discussions.
 ForexMax up nearly 3% today, decent day for them, I believe that puts them positive on the month.  Devrim no trade.  Bankedge going positive on the month, making money as his positions […]



New FX traders

Working out deals and getting this slew of new guys trading.  Doing additional due diligence and in some cases actually watching and listening to trading banter and logic behind decisions.  Phil is very impressive and we’ve just about decided on a borkerage to focus on that suits them.  Just will have to be patient until […]



HVB to strong new highs

By admin • Jan 31st, 2008 • Category: Bankedge, BlendedFX, ForexMx, HVB, K-3, Mcelhaney, PTI, Paskewitz, Sentiment, Zone

HVB rips to new highs, great day, up 7% or so.  Love that program.  Volume’s picking up in the market so hopefully it continues to have more days like this one.  Made money long and short, great to see.  K3 also continued in its volatile ways, up 4% or so.  Have a call with Phil Worley […]



K3 hammered

By admin • Jan 23rd, 2008 • Category: Alderon, Bankedge, BlendedFX, Devrim, ForexMx, HVB, K-3, PTI, SPCM, Sentiment

K3 kept some gains but gave back the lions share, ouch.  Sentiment off again some more, probably pulling the plug on them for myself, taking my gains and moving on to SPCM most likely.  Devrim recovered some, flat at his home firm.  Bankedge giving back some gains, building some longer-term positions.  Blended to new highs […]



K3 Rocking

K-3 up strong for the fourth day in a row.  Great to see, impressive off their worst drawdown, good buy for anybody who had the courage to get in down there.  Blended is doing fine, slow and steady to the upside.  Bankedge haven’t heard from in a couple days.  Chatted with Seymour for a while […]

ForexMx is now up 38% for January, trading one prop account so numbers are verifiable. $250k min can be underfunded/notionally funded if need be.  He does whip around some on the dailies, monthly resolution smoothes it out.  Dailies for this month aren’t very whippy - up up up it looks like.  Some days last year he […]
