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.

Just back from a long weekend of hiking with some buddies in the mountains on the Olympic Peninsula.
Traders have done well the last few days.
Triton up Friday and today, hopefully the beginning of a streak.
Devrim continues to fight back, about even for today so far.
Looking at a trader who […]



Triton off a couple more percent

By admin • Jun 4th, 2008 • Category: Devrim, Swanson, Triton

See the end of the post for Triton commentary, he’s not worried and says this drawdown is normal. I don’t like it but who does.
Devrim trading around making money on the EUR and losing on the AUD.
MWC off 2% or so on the month so far.
HVB up a percent today.

Another frustrating day of stop […]



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 […]



ICT

ICT or International Currency Traders has managed to lose near 100% of my friend’s clients’ capital I am told, I didn’t speak with him about it until they were already invested.  ICT lost a good bit of money they were trading for me a few years back.
On that note we are consulting with that particular IB on Forex […]



FX Manager Update

By admin • Mar 3rd, 2008 • Category: Devrim, ForexMx, George, High Street, Swanson, Zone

Alderon had a good few days.  Bankedge fighting their way out of their drawdown.  Devrim no trades.  ForexMx traded up a storm today, first day we’ve been able to see him, haven’t checked the PL yet, we’ll get it tomorrow but the trade confirms popped into my email every few minutes it seemed, I had […]



Managed Forex, Devrim up, Bankedge off significantly

By admin • Feb 28th, 2008 • Category: Armada, Aussie, Bankedge, BlendedFX, Devrim, ForexMx, Paskewitz, SPCM, Swanson, Zone

I know I know I always talk abot Devrim.  He’s fun to watch trade.  Still trading this volatility and doing well at it.  He has some methodolgy or indicator he built that he really believes in, it appears with good reason.  Not up a ton but up nonetheless.  Looking into 007 today, spoke with Robert, […]



Post-holidays

By admin • Nov 26th, 2007 • Category: Aussie, CBM, Devrim, Elite, HVB, K-3, Sentiment, Seymour, Stop Finder, Swanson, VAM

K-3 and CBM up a bit, correlation carries on.  Sentiment down again.  Devrim flattish.  VAM spanked another 5%, down 35% from their peak - add?  Dunno.  Elite off a couple % too.
Looking into Stopfinder running.  HVB been down a couple days, we’ll see what happens today.  Daytrading going well.  Off to China next week, Atlanta after […]



Opposite of yesterday, everybody down

By admin • Nov 14th, 2007 • Category: Algorithmic, Aussie, CBM, Elite, K-3, Paskewitz, Sentiment, Seymour, Stop Finder, Swanson, VAM

K-3 off nearly 3%, CBM off over 2%, Elite gave back some, down over 2% their equity curve looks good however, higher lows consistently.  VAM and Devrim flat.  Devrim may not trade again this month as he’s met his goal, we’ll see.  And Sentiment down a little.  Paskewitz up 18% on the day - was […]

Talked to a group in London today.  A friend of mine turned me on to them.  Two daytraders, formerly ran 100 million then got into a bit of a tiff and broke off, now they have begun their own program.  FSA regulated, audited track record, come recommended.  I love the daytraders as I think they […]



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 […]
