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 FX update

By admin • Sep 9th, 2008 • Category: Genoa, HVB, Sentiment, Triton, UFX

Genoa traded for a small winner today.  Just Saxo and Citi, and seems executions are different.   I’m down a bit on the month on my accounts at both banks.  Waiting on PFG trades, trader tells me Monday, he’s getting used to the platforms and trading for more than just his own account.  I pushed him a bit […]



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 […]



Working to make money ‘without working’

By admin • Feb 12th, 2008 • Category: Armada, Bankedge, Devrim, HVB, Jim, K-3, PR Program, Paskewitz, SPCM, Sentiment

Back from Aspen, so nice out there.  Tons of snow this year, conditions were terrific.  The town is very cool and peaceful, I enjoyed the trip immensely.
Focusing on a handful of managers now.  I’m liking HVB, SPCM, PR Program, ForexMx, Devrim, and Paskewitz at the moment.  HVB down yesterday and down a bit today.  Still […]



New Forex Managers

By admin • Feb 7th, 2008 • Category: Bankedge, Devrim, ForexMx, HVB, PTI, Paskewitz, SPCM, Sentiment

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 […]



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 […]



Volatility in Forex

By admin • Jan 29th, 2008 • Category: CBM, Devrim, HVB, K-3, PR Program, Paskewitz, Sentiment, Zone

K3 rips up after four losing days, still near lows.  Sentiment has another up day, 2% or so.  Zone flattish on the month, but has decided to accept notional funding which is exciting, 50k will get you 250k in exposure subject to some guidelines.  I love their risk control - as they lose they trade […]



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 […]



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 […]



Crazy day

By admin • Jan 22nd, 2008 • Category: Devrim, ForexMx, HVB, K-3, Mcelhaney, SPCM, Sentiment, Seymour

In the markets - 75 point emergency fed rate cut?  Don’t know what happened for most of the managers today, we’ll find out on the runs tomorrow.  The guys I can look ahead are Devrim who took off some of his positions at PFG for a loser - was glad to see that actually - shows […]



K3 Rocking

By admin • Jan 18th, 2008 • Category: Alderon, Algorithmic, Bankedge, BlendedFX, Devrim, Echelon, ForexMx, HVB, K-3, Mcelhaney, PTI, SPCM, Sentiment, Seymour

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 […]
