In comparison, the daily volume of the New York Stock Exchange is approximately US$30 billion per day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until now, professional traders from major international commercial and investment banks have dominated the FX market. Other market participants range from large multinational corporations, global money managers, registered dealers, international money brokers, and futures and options traders, to private speculators.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are three main reasons to participate in the FX market. One is to facilitate an actual transaction, whereby international corporations convert profits made in foreign currencies into their domestic currency. Corporate treasurers and money managers also enter the FX market in order to hedge against unwanted exposure to future price movements in the currency market. The third and more popular reason is speculation for profit. In fact, today it is estimated that less than 5% of all trading on the FX market is actually facilitating a true commercial transaction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;How It Works&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Exchange is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another. The world's currencies are on a floating exchange rate and are always traded in pairs, for example Euro/Dollar or Dollar/Yen. In trading parlance, a long position is one in which a trader buys a currency at one price and aims to sell it later at a higher price. A short position is one in which the trader sells a currency in anticipation that it will depreciate. In every open position, an investor is long in one currency and shorts the other. FX traders express a position in terms of the first currency in the pair. For example, someone who has bought dollars and sold yen (USD/JPY) at 104.37 is considered to be long US Dollars and short Yen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most often traded or 'liquid' currencies are those of countries with stable governments, respected central banks, and low inflation. Today, over 85% of all daily transactions involve trading of the major currencies, including the US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, British Pound, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The FX market is considered an Over The Counter (OTC) or 'Interbank' market, due to the fact that transactions are conducted between two counterparts over the telephone or via an electronic network. Trading is not centralized on an exchange, as with the stock and futures markets. A true 24-hour market, Forex trading begins each day in Sydney, and moves around the globe as the business day begins in each financial center, first to Tokyo, London, and New York. Unlike any other financial market, investors can respond to currency fluctuations caused by economic, social and political events at the time they occur - day or night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Factors Affecting the Market&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currency prices are affected by a variety of economic and political conditions, most importantly interest rates, inflation and political stability. Moreover, governments sometimes participate in the Forex market to influence the value of their currencies, either by flooding the market with their domestic currency in an attempt to lower the price, or conversely buying in order to raise the price. This is known as Central Bank intervention. Any of these factors, as well as large market orders, can cause high volatility in currency prices. However, the size and volume of the Forex market makes it impossible for any one entity to "drive" the market for any length of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Fundamental vs. Technical Analysis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currency traders make decisions using both technical factors and economic fundamentals. Technical traders use charts, trend lines, support and resistance levels, and numerous patterns and mathematical analyses to identify trading opportunities, whereas fundamentalists predict price movements by interpreting a wide variety of economic information, including news, government-issued indicators and reports, and even rumor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most dramatic price movements however, occur when unexpected events happen. The event can range from a Central Bank raising domestic interest rates to the outcome of a political election or even an act of war. Nonetheless, more often it is the expectations surrounding an event that drives the market rather than the event itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Buying and Selling&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the forex market, currencies are always priced and traded in pairs. You simultaneously buy one currency and sell another, but you can determine which pair of currencies you wish to trade. For example, if you believe the value of the euro is going to increase vis-á-vis the U.S. Dollar, then you would go long on EUR/USD instrument (currency pair). Obviously, the objective of forex currency trading is to exchange one currency for another in the expectation that the market rate or price will change so that the currency you bought has increased its value relative to the one you sold. If you have bought a currency and the price appreciates in value, then you must sell the currency back in order to lock in the profit. An open trade or position is one in which a trader has either bought / sold one currency pair and has not sold / bought back the equivalent amount to effectively close the position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Market Conventions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Market conventions are rules and standards imposed by a governing body. In case of decentralized forex market these conventions might differ due to many national regulators (FSA, FSC, CFTC, NFA, BCSC, etc.). Since there is no central governing body that sets forex market rules and standards, we will reference only these that are universal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Quoting Conventions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first currency in the pair is referred to as the base currency, and the second currency is the counter or quote currency. The U.S Dollar is usually the base currency for quotes, and includes USD/JPY, USD/CHF, and USD/CAD. The exceptions are the Euro (EUR), Great Britain Pound (GBP), and Australian Dollar (AUD). As with all financial products, forex quotes include a "bid" and "ask", which is more often called "offer" in the forex market. The bid is the price at which a forex market maker is willing to buy (and you can sell) the base currency in exchange for the counter currency. The offer is the price at which a forex market maker will sell (and you can buy) the base currency in exchange for the counter currency. The difference between the bid and the offer price is referred to as the spread.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34723888-185704137323857260?l=7valas-online.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/feeds/185704137323857260/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=34723888&amp;postID=185704137323857260' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/185704137323857260'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/185704137323857260'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/2007/07/forex-online-trading-at-marketiva.html' title='Forex Online Trading at Marketiva'/><author><name>Sukses Bersama</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11789730417729900277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34723888.post-3199221452352355930</id><published>2007-05-15T14:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-03T14:57:39.096-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Learn Trading: History of the Forex Market (B)</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;My name is Nadia Fleischer and I work for Marketiva Corporation (&lt;a href="http://www.marketiva.com/?gid=372" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"&gt;http://www.marketiva.com/&lt;/a&gt;).

Economic data are released almost every day by specialized government agencies located across the globe. Each agency is accountable for keeping an eye on specific economic issues. They collect data based on extremely stringent guidelines. They build formal econometric models in an attempt to pierce through the underlying patterns and developments evolving in the economies of their respective countries. In fact, it is the data that these agencies release that we will attempt to lift the veil on in this article. US fundamental announcements produce enormously spectacular moves in the currency markets. The large volume of these economic data releases in a 365 Gregorian calendar renders a trader's endeavor to predict the market more complex. All in all, economic data releases account for more than 80 percent of short term volatility in the currency markets. They are truly the source of momentum in the Forex market. Tom Peters said once "bigness is automatically badness unless you fight it every single day." Due to the sheer volume of announcements, trading these news announcements should be undertaken cautiously.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE BEIGE BOOK&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Beige Book is released at 2:15 pm Eastern time, two Wednesdays before every FOMC meeting and published 8 times a year by the Federal Reserve Board. This Report is entitled "Summary of Commentary on Current Economic Conditions by Federal Reserve District". Each Federal Reserve Bank collects anecdotal accounts on current economic conditions in its district via reports from bank and branch directors and interviews with key business contacts, economists, market experts, and several other sources. This report reviews narrations of economic conditions by district and sector. The Beige Report is by no means a big market mover; it is only an attempt to gauge the vigor of the US economy. It does not reflect the more informed views of Fed members. The Beige Report can move markets when its tea leaves pronouncements are qualitatively superior to expectations by analysts. In fact, Beige report findings are timely and data is four weeks old. FOMC members peruse this report prior to their interest rates meetings for the following simple reason "How does one acquire knowledge about reality by working in one's office with pen and paper?", according to the economist Robert E. Lucas. The Beige book may anticipate the future direction of interest rates despite its downright descriptive nature, which lacks any data series models. It is indeed a report of economic conditions in a simple prose, or story-telling, fashion.&lt;br /&gt;Information reported varies according to region's economic significance and contribution to the overall economy. One district may release comprehensive information on farms, while others will not, and there are 12 Federal districts In the US. The Beige book is reviewed and analyzed after its release. There are several individuals who supply the anecdotal information contained within the Beige book or report: directors of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks and their branches offer written economic reports of conditions in their respective regions. Reserve Banks presidents and economists journey through their districts and get together with business people and bankers to examine conditions in their industries. Reserve banks preserve a set of connections with industry executives who are contacted on a regular basis before FOMC meetings. However, these contacts are small in quantity and are not selected randomly, which undermines the predictive power of the Beige book. The Federal Reserve Board relies on formal models such as national economic models and aggregate statistics to set monetary policy. However, statistical data is reported with a substantial time lag, which renders reading the Beige book a necessity in order to evidence and support patterns and developments exhibited by these more advanced econometric models and data mining techniques. Monthly state employment and unemployment statistics are reported by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics with a one month lag.&lt;br /&gt;Bureau of Economic Analysis final measures are subject to revisions as more robust data become available. One bank on a rotating basis writes an overview and summary of national economic conditions based on the twelve region's report. The predictive power of the Beige report surpasses that of the Blue Chip consensus Forecast. The Beige book can fill gaps in data series since setting monetary policy requires knowing as much about current and future economic conditions before making decisions. In fact, the Federal Reserve Banks began publishing this report in 1970. It used to be called "the red book" and it was used for exclusively internal decision purposes. In 1983 the report was released to the public, and the color of its cover was changed to beige.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ISM INDEXES&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Institute for Supply Management or ISM for short releases vital statistics about the US economy. Until January 02, 2002 the name of ISM was the National Association of Purchasing Management or NAPM. ISM is the producer of the highly sought after reports: Manufacturing and Non-Manufacturing ISM Report on Business. These reports are considered to be key reports. They are leading economic indicators and are followed by economists, profit and non-profit organizations and media across the world. Due to the significant change that took place in the supply management industry, ISM altered its name to reposition itself in the supply management industry as a leader. However, the contents of the Report on Business have not changed at all, and this report is commonly known as the ISM Report on Business. ISM produces several types of reports. The key report is the ISM Manufacturing Report on Business, which is released on the first business day of every month. The ISM Manufacturing Report on Business is considered by many economists to be the most reliable short term economic indicator available today. It is reviewed on a regular basis by government agencies and economic and business leaders for its contemporaneous and accurate information concerning the manufacturing sector of the US economy. The other report, which ISM also releases, is the ISM Non-Manufacturing Report on Business. This report provides insightful information about the services sector of the US economy, which accounts for more than 80 percent of Gross Domestic Product bottom line results. The ISM Non-Manufacturing Report on Business was first published in June 1998 and is released on the third business day of every month. The third report published by ISM is the ISM Semi-annual Report on Business, which is released to the public in May and December. This report offers insights into both the manufacturing and non-manufacturing sectors of the US economy. This report also offers projections for the next six months. Members of the ISM Business Survey Committee receive are surveyed every month. They are asked to identify month to month changes in each ISM index. The PMI is a composite index, which is used only in the Manufacturing Report on Business. Before September 01, 2001, PMI used to stand for Purchasing Managers' Index. Today, ISM still uses PMI despite its strategic repositioning within the supply management industry and abandonment of its purchasing role. The PMI index is based on seasonally adjusted diffusion indexes for five indicators with varying weights applied. New Orders 30 percent, Production 25 percent, Employment 20 percent, Supplier Deliveries 15 percent, Inventories 10 percent. A PMI index over 50 percent is tantamount to growth and expansion of the manufacturing sector of the US economy relative to the previous month. A reading below 50 percent suggests contraction and a shrinking US industry sector. A reading of 50 suggests no change in the industry sector. A diffusion index in a measure of dispersion; that is, the degree to which a change in something is spread out or diffused within a specific group. For example, if every member of a sample population is asked whether something has changed and in which direction, he or she would answer in one of the three ways: it has not changed, it has increased, or it has decreased. Every ISM index is a diffusion index and is an indicator of month to month change. The percentage responses to Increased, unchanged, or worse are not easy to evaluate against previous periods, hence the need to diffuse these percentages arises. A diffusion index exhibits the level to which the change is dispersed or diffused throughout the sample population.&lt;br /&gt;Respondents to the ISM surveys indicate each month whether particular activities, for example new orders, have increased, decreased, or are unchanged from the previous month. The ISM indexes are computed by taking the percentage of survey respondents who report that the activity has increased and adding it up to one half of the survey respondents percentage who report the activity has not changed and totaling the two percentages. The use of half of the same percentages robustly measures the bias toward a positive 50 percent or negative index reading. To illustrate the computation of a diffusion index, Let's say the response from a sample population involving a specific attribute is 20 percent said better, 70 percent said same, and 10 percent said worse, the diffusion index would be 55 percent ,that is, 20 percent + 70/2 percent. A reading of 50 indicates no change from the previous month. Economists and statisticians have concluded that the farther the index is away from a 50 percent reading, the rate of change is greater. Therefore, an index of 70 percent suggests a faster rate of increase than an index of 60. All indexes in the Non-Manufacturing Report on Business are not composite indexes because there is not enough data to formulate a composite index for the Non-Manufacturing Report on Business. However, this report is assessed on a regular basis and the most analogous index is the Business Activity Index. The definitions of the indexes included in the Manufacturing and Non-Manufacturing Report on Business are as follow: These are the definitions for the ones included in the Manufacturing Report on Business: New Orders: mirrors the level of new orders from customers. Production: measures the rate and direction of change in the level of production.&lt;br /&gt;Employment: reports the rate of increase or decrease in the level of employment. Supplier deliveries: discloses whether deliveries from suppliers are faster or slower. Inventories: reflects increases or decreases in inventory levels. Customer Inventories: measures the degree of customer inventories. Prices: reports whether organization are paying more for products and services. Backlog of Orders: measures the amount of backlog of orders, whether increasing or decreasing. New Export Orders: reports on the level of orders, requests for services, and other&lt;br /&gt;activities to be provided outside of the US; Imports: measures the rate of change in goods imported. The following are definitions for the Non-Manufacturing Report on Business indexes: Business Activity: measures the rate and direction of change in the level of business activity. New Orders, Employment, Supplier deliveries, Inventories, Prices, Backlog of Orders, New Export Orders, Imports are all similar to their manufacturing counterparts as illustrated above. Inventory Sentiment: measures the rate of inventories based on a sentiment of too high or too low. Each month the industries reporting the most significant changes are listed in the ISM report. The ISM report does also list those commodities, which are up or down in price, and/or are in short supply. The ISM website is at &lt;a href="http://www.ism.ws/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"&gt;http://www.ism.ws/&lt;/a&gt;. The ISM website contains extensive historical information for the PMI and Manufacturing and Non-Manufacturing indexes. Adjustments for seasonality effects are made every year in the January reports. In fact, the seasonal adjustments are developed by the US department of Commerce and handed over to ISM. As of January 2003, the indexes that are seasonally adjusted are the following: Manufacturing: New Orders, Production, Employment, Supplier Deliveries, Inventories, Export Orders, Imports; Non-Manufacturing: Business Activity, New Orders, Employment, Prices. There are regional reports on business but these reports are not produced by ISM; they are produced by ISM affiliates and often cover the market area for the affiliate. Some cover major cities areas while others are state- wide reports. A list of regional reports is available at &lt;a href="http://www.ism.ws/ISMReport/index.cfm#regional" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"&gt; http://www.ism.ws/ISMReport&lt;wbr&gt;/index.cfm#regional&lt;/a&gt; page. There are countries that offer similar information to that found in the ISM Manufacturing Report on Business. The United Kingdom and Denmark are two such examples. In conclusion, the Report on Business is a month to month vital economic indicator. ISM releases semi-annual predictions in December and May that report on business conditions, trends, and expectations for the next year as well as for the final balance of the present year. These reports are both released via Business Wire and posted on ISM's website. All in All, the ISM manufacturing index is based on surveys of 300 purchasing managers across the US. They represent 20 industries within the manufacturing industry sector. The ISM manufacturing index is seasonally adjusted for the effects of variations within the year owing to differences due to holidays and institutional changes. The Manufacturing Business Report is released at 10 am eastern time. The ISM Non Manufacturing is also called ISM services index. It is based on a survey of approximately 370 purchasing executives in several services industries such as finance, insurance, real estate, communications and utilities. The ISM services Index is also released at 10:00 am Eastern Time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, we suggest you to trade with virtual money for as long as possible, before trading your own funds.

The data also include\u003cbr\&gt;breakdowns of hours worked, overtime, and average hourly earnings. The\u003cbr\&gt;\n\naverage workweek (also known as hours worked) is important for two\u003cbr\&gt;reasons. First, it is a critical determinant of such monthly indicators as\u003cbr\&gt;industrial production and personal income. Second, it is considered a useful\n\u003cbr\&gt;indicator of labor market conditions: a rising workweek early in the business\u003cbr\&gt;cycle may be the first indication that employers are preparing to boost their\u003cbr\&gt;payrolls, while late in the cycle a rising workweek may indicate that\n\u003cbr\&gt;employers are having difficulty finding qualified applicants for open\u003cbr\&gt;positions. Average earnings are closely followed as an indicator of potential\u003cbr\&gt;inflation.

The market follows these components closely as indicators of the trends in  sectors of the economy; the manufacturing sector is watched the most closely as it often leads the business cycle. The data also include breakdowns of hours worked, overtime, and average hourly earnings. The average workweek (also known as hours worked) is important for two reasons. First, it is a critical determinant of such monthly indicators as industrial production and personal income. Second, it is considered a useful indicator of labor market conditions: a rising workweek early in the business cycle may be the first indication that employers are preparing to boost their payrolls, while late in the cycle a rising workweek may indicate that employers are having difficulty finding qualified applicants for open positions. Average earnings are closely followed as an indicator of potential inflation. Like the price of any good or service, the price of labor reacts to an overly accommodative monetary policy. If the price of labor is rising sharply, it may be an indication that too much money is chasing too few goods, or in this case employees.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By tracking the jobs data, investors can sense the degree of tightness in the job market.

Marketiva is a foreign exchange (forex) dealer where people can start trading with as little as $1 and learn how to successfully participate in the largest financial market in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the previous e-mail ("Learn Trading: Basics of Fundamental Analysis") we explained the usage of Alerts and News Tab in the Streamster and listed four basic Economic indicators: GDP (Gross Domestic Products), Industrial Production, the Employment Report and Jobless Claims.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this e-mail, we will cover other important Economic indicators that affect economic performance and that can be used to predict future performance: Producer Price Index, Consumer Price Index, Leading Indicators and Consumer Confidence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PPI (PRODUCER PRICE INDEX)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Producer Price Index (PPI) is a measure of price changes in the manufacturing sector. It measures average changes in selling prices received by domestic producers in the manufacturing, mining, agriculture, and electric utility industries for their output.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Producer Price Index (PPI) measures prices of goods at the wholesale level. There are three broad subcategories within PPI: crude, intermediate, and finished. The market tracks the finished goods index most closely, as it represents prices for goods that are ready for sale to the end user. Goods prices at the crude and intermediate stages of production often provide an indication of incoming inflationary pressures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The PPI is often used as a leading indicator of consumer inflation in the future, as additional costs of producing goods are often passed on to the consumer in due course.&lt;br /&gt;The consumer price index (CPI) is a related index, but differs in that the CPI measures the price paid by the end users. Other price indexes are sometimes used, for example a labor price index.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The PPI measures price changes in the manufacturing sector. Inflation at this production level often gets passed through to the consumer price index (CPI). By tracking price pressures in the pipeline, investors can anticipate inflationary consequences in coming months. Investors need to monitor inflation closely. Just knowing what inflation is and how it influences the markets can put an individual investor head and shoulders above the crowd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the rate of inflation changes and as expectations on inflation change, the markets adjust interest rates accordingly. By tracking the trends in inflation, whether high or low, rising or falling, investors can anticipate how different types of investments will perform.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CPI (CONSUMER PRICE INDEX)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the rate of inflation experienced by consumers. The reading represents the monthly change in the average price of a fixed basket of goods and services purchased by consumers. Higher inflation generally leads to higher interest rates, which tend to strengthen the country's currency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average price level paid by urban consumers (80% of population) for a fixed basket of goods and services; it also measures the rate of inflation experienced by consumers. CPI reports price changes in over 200 categories and also includes various user fees and taxes directly associated with the prices of specific goods and services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CPI is a fixed quantity price index and a sort of cost-of-living index. It has been criticized for overstating inflation, because it does not adjust for substitution effects and because the fixed basket does not reflect price changes in new technology goods which are often declining in price. Despite these criticisms, it remains the main inflation index.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CPI EXCLUDING FOOD AND ENERGY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Core rate" of inflation representing movement in volatile food and energy prices have been introduced. It represents CPI excluding food and energy, however including some other volatile components as apparel, tobacco, airfares, and new cars. User fees (such as water and sewer service) and sales and excise taxes paid by the consumer are also included; income taxes and investment items (like stocks, bonds, life insurance, and homes) are not included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By tracking the trends in inflation, whether high or low, rising or falling, investors can anticipate how different types of investments will perform.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LEADING INDICATORS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Leading Indicators report is a composite index of ten economic indicators that typically lead overall economic activity: - Average workweek of production workers in manufacturing. - Average weekly claims for state unemployment. - New orders for consumer goods and materials - Vendor performance (companies receiving slower deliveries from suppliers) - Contracts and orders for plant and equipment - New building permits issued - Change in manufacturers unfilled orders, durable goods - Change in sensitive materials prices - Index of stock prices - Money supply - Index of consumer expectations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The leading indicators series was previously published by The Commerce Department, however, the collection and publishing of these data is from 1996 done by the non-profit Conference Board, which also produces the Consumer Confidence Index. That increased usefulness of the leading index. Conference Board researchers quickly scrapped two of the old components - the change in sensitive materials prices and unfilled orders for durable goods - and added the interest-rate spread that appears in our list above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The index of Leading Indicators is designed to predict turning points in the economy such as recessions and recoveries. Of course, even a strong trend like that does not guarantee that a recession will not form over the coming six to nine months. But we can get additional help from looking at the leading index with the coincident index, which is also published by The Conference Board, and alongside a couple of other leading indices.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CONSUMER CONFIDENCE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like the index of Leading Indicator, Consumer Confidence is a survey conducted by The Conference Board in five thousand households across the country. It pictures consumer attitudes; concerning both the present situation as well as expectations regarding economic conditions. The level of consumer confidence is directly related to the strength of consumer spending.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The index consists of two sub indices - consumers' appraisal of current conditions and their expectations for the future. Expectations make up 60% of the total index, with current conditions accounting for the other 40%. The expectations index is typically seen as having better leading indicator qualities than the current conditions index.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, we suggest you to trade with virtual money for as long as possible, before trading your own real funds.

Marketiva is a foreign exchange (forex) dealer where people can start trading with as little as $1 and learn how to successfully participate in the largest financial market in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We shall provide in this article an overview of the colorful history of the foreign exchange market. The foreign exchange market as we know it today is the sheer outgrowth of the flexible exchange rate regime, which  was officially mandated by the International Monetary Fund, IMF for short, in 1978.The shift from a fixed to a flexible or floating exchange rate system was adopted in consequence of the failure of previously implemented international monetary systems, specifically, the Gold Exchange Standard, the Bretton Woods Accord, and the Smithsonian Agreement, to sustain international economic stability.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE GOLD EXCHANGE STANDARD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The predominant international monetary system until 1944. Under this system, currencies were pegged to the price of gold, and a nation's economy would incur sharp cyclical periods of economic booms and busts. For instance, when a nation's economy was strong, its imports would increase until the gold reserves were depleted because a nation had to redeem its notes in gold.&lt;br /&gt;Money supply would drop in turn since the value of its currency was a  function of its reserves of gold. In addition, interest rates would soar high, leading to an economic recession and less demand for money, meaning borrowers find it costly to borrow funds from lending institutions. The prices of that nation's exports would eventually become attractive to foreigners who would ultimately engage in a buying frenzy of its export goods. This demand for that country's exports would inject more gold reserves into the nation's economy and lead to an economic expansion. This monetary system was superseded by the Bretton Woods system as it failed to maintain international economic order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BRETTON WOODS ACCORD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1944, The United Nations Monetary Fund convened in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire in the United States with delegates from the United States, Britain, and France to set up rules and institutions to regulate the international monetary system. The International Monetary Fund was founded and became fully operational a few years later. National currencies were fixed to the US dollar and the US dollar was also pegged to gold at 35 dollars per ounce. The US dollar became the benchmark and the reserve currency for major economies since the United States was the only nation which was not scarred by war. The British economy was destroyed and many counterfeits of the British Pound were being circulated by Nazi Germany.&lt;br /&gt;Hence, the British Pound could no longer serve as a reserve currency to which other currencies could be compared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under the Bretton Woods system, currencies were allowed to fluctuate one percentage point from a fixed or par value and an equivalent rate in terms of the price of gold. In addition, the goal of the Bretton Woods conference was to prevent cross border money flight and restrain speculative demands for a currency. Also, countries were not allowed to devalue their currencies by less than 10 percent in order to stimulate demand for their exports. The Bretton Woods accord collapsed in 1973 as a result of substantial movements of capital during the post-war reconstruction period, which led to destabilization of currency rates and economic crises in several nations.&lt;br /&gt;There are several theories which account for the collapse of the Bretton Woods system, namely, marginal tax rates, budget deficit, and the government expenditure on the Vietnam War.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SMITHSONIAN AGREEMENT&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An adjustment to the Bretton Woods Agreement, which was signed by member countries of the GROUP OF TEN at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C in USA in 1971. This accord included the adoption wider floating ceilings and floors of plus or minus 2.25 percent of a fixed or par value. Furthermore, member countries appreciated their currencies vis-a-vis the US dollar. On August 1971, the US dollar was devalued and the United States abandoned the system of convertibility of the US dollar into gold. The value of gold was also increased to 38 dollars an ounce, which meant a devaluation of the US dollar. The price of gold reached even higher prices a few years later.&lt;br /&gt;The US dollar was over-valued in 1970 owing to excessive government spending on the Vietnam War and a high inflation rate. This monetary system was doomed to crash as it failed to preserve order in international trade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FREE FLOATING EXCHANGE RATES&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During that time, another regional monetary system was implemented in Europe, namely, The European Monetary System, which was created in 1978. European currencies were pegged to one another, mainly the ones showing strength, in an attempt to gain independence from the US dollar. However, the EMS failed as well when the Bank of England failed to stabilize its currency, which was subjected to downward pressure from private speculators, and England withdrew from the EMS. The Forex Market deregulation was deemed to be a necessity at best seeing that the International Monetary Fund mandated its application in 1978. A currency may be traded by anyone, and its value is a function of the forces of supply and demand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Increased volatility of currency rates continued to prevail on the Forex market with the advent of free trade agreements, new financial instruments and technological advances in the eighties, such as the personal computer. The Forex market became so large that even governments cannot control exchange rates anymore as a significant size of transactions is in the hand of private traders. It is estimated that the daily turnover of the foreign exchange market reaches more than 2 trillion dollars. The year 1998 marks the start of online retail Forex trading and currencies can be bought and sold by any individual investor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;UNDERSTANDING FOREX&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If New York is considered to be the largest center of equity trading, it only ranks second to London, which is considered to be the most active trading session in the Forex universe in terms of volumes. When the US and European session overlap, volume reaches the highest levels. Forex travels with the sun around the world. Trading begins in New Zealand, and then moves to Sydney, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore, Frankfurt, London, and New York. Forex is a seamless 24 hour market and hence it is free of market opening and closing gaps unlike the equities markets. Currency traders are must continuously monitor countries news and events related to currency pairs they trade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For example, an investor trading the pair EUR/USD should constantly examine the latest news and events relating to the macroeconomic performance of both the Euro zone and the US. Currency traders can react to news and events around the world and make informed decisions based on the latest news before deciding which positions to take.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Forex daily turnover exceeds 2 trillion dollars, which means that the Forex can dwarf all the equities markets combined together. The Forex is an over the counter market, or OTC market for short, meaning that trading Forex is not centralized on a single exchange; rather trading is conducted via computer terminals at major banks and dealer/broker houses, a reason for which the Forex is sometimes referred to as the inter-bank system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forex is a true network of dealers (banks and market makers) each quoting their bid and offer (ask) rates. Bid is the price at which a dealer is willing to buy the base currency, and ask, or offer, is the price at which a foreign exchange dealer is willing to sell a base Currency. There are Forex dealers in every time zone and in every financial center in the world.&lt;br /&gt;Dealers make profits from their spreads, or the difference between bid and offer rates. Market participants in the Forex include institutional and individual investors. Corporations with international operations trade the Forex to hedge currency fluctuations risk. The US Federal Reserve System and other countries central banks participate in the Forex through their monetary policies by increasing or decreasing interest rates, which in turn has an impact on the money supply in their countries. Central banks also engage in the buying and selling of foreign reserves to guard against severe fluctuations in their currencies and to stabilize their macroeconomic performance. International banks, hedge funds, large commodity trading advisors (CTAs), and private traders play the Forex as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is estimated that 95 percent of Forex transactions are speculative in nature and only 5 percent represent hedging activities against currency rates fluctuations. Major currencies are the most commonly traded currencies in the Forex and they account for nearly 85 percent of total volume. Potential for making profits exists 24 hours a day as one currency of each pair is gaining and the other is losing. Currencies are traded in lots, or quantities.&lt;br /&gt;Leverage makes the Forex market an attractive investment vehicle as traders can control larger funds than they can actually afford. For instance, the minimal required investment amount in the equities markets is 25000 dollars.&lt;br /&gt;Marketiva offers a 1:100 leverage, which means that an investor can control a quantity 100 times larger than his investment. Leverage does play a role of amplifying profits and losses but does not make Forex any riskier than any other financial market as the risk to reward ratio is only 1 percent.&lt;br /&gt;Currency traders geared with appropriate money management skills, knowledge of the basics of technical analysis and fundamental analysis stand to make profits in the Forex market. Forex investors must be big picture individuals and information is available to enable them to react to events on time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is estimated that more than 95 percent of currency traders have no prior knowledge of the aforementioned methodologies of analyzing the market and hence experience major draw downs in their equities. The Forex market is the most liquid market and traders can enter and exit trades with ease. There are always buyers and sellers of a currency pair and a currency trader would never have to worry about finding a buyer or a seller of his pair because there is no market interest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, we suggest you to trade with virtual money for as long as possible, before trading your own funds. We will continue this practice of sending educational e-mails in order to help you obtain further knowledge about the foreign exchange market.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34723888-656476322527458044?l=7valas-online.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/feeds/656476322527458044/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=34723888&amp;postID=656476322527458044' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/656476322527458044'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/656476322527458044'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/2007/01/learn-trading-history-of-forex-market.html' title='Learn Trading: History of the Forex Market (A)'/><author><name>Sukses Bersama</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11789730417729900277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34723888.post-116716003755615659</id><published>2006-12-26T11:06:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-26T11:07:17.793-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Charlie Rose - GREENSPAN EFFECT/KRALL/THE GLOBE</title><content type='html'>&lt;table xmlns="http://purl.org/atom/ns#" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td colspan="2"&gt;&lt;embed flashvars="" id="VideoPlayback" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-140339970809782139&amp;amp;hl=en" style="width:300px; height:243px;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"&gt; &lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr/&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;Episode 9149&lt;br /&gt;GUESTS/AFFILIATIONS: Joshia Ramo///Diana Krall, Singer///Stephan Paternot, Co-CEO, The Globe.Com; Todd Krizelman, Co-CEO, The Globe.Com&lt;br /&gt;                &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34723888-116716003755615659?l=7valas-online.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/feeds/116716003755615659/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=34723888&amp;postID=116716003755615659' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/116716003755615659'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/116716003755615659'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/2006/12/charlie-rose-greenspan-effectkrallthe.html' title='Charlie Rose - GREENSPAN EFFECT/KRALL/THE GLOBE'/><author><name>Sukses Bersama</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11789730417729900277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34723888.post-116511639321218789</id><published>2006-12-02T18:42:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-02T20:41:49.863-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Tanya Jawab dengan Team Support Marketiva</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Beberapa waktu lalu saya mencoba menghubungi team support marketiva melalui chanel live support mereka yang terdapat di website &lt;a href="http://www.marketiva.com/?gid=372"&gt;www.marketiva.com&lt;/a&gt; untuk bertanya-tanya mengenai prosedur registrasi account di Marketiva.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: Bagaimana sih cara memulai trading di sini?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Team Support&lt;/span&gt;: Untuk dapat memulai trading, anda perlu membuka account dengan kami (gratis) dan download program aplikasi trading (Streamster). Untuk membuka account anda, silakan kunjungi &lt;a href="https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=open-account&amp;gid=372"&gt;https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=open-account&lt;/a&gt; dan untuk mendownload Streamster silakan kunjungi &lt;a href="http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=downloads&amp;amp;gid=372"&gt;http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=downloads&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: Setelah itu bagaimana?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Team Support&lt;/span&gt;: Cara termudah untuk memulai trading adalah dengan mengklik pasangan mata uang yang ingin anda beli di window [Forex Rates]. Ketika dialog [Send Order] muncul, anda bisa set kolom Quantity menjadi 100 dan kolom Desk menjadi Live trading. Ketika anda klik tombol &lt;ok&gt; order tersebut akan masuk ke market. Untuk Virtual Trading, anda hanya perlu untuk menekan tombol [OK]&lt;ok&gt;. Anda dapat menemukan kumpulan artikel dan berbagai macam sumber bacaan untuk membantu anda memahami dasar-dasar trading valas di &lt;a href="http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=resources&amp;gid=372"&gt;http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=resources&lt;/a&gt; :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ok&gt;&lt;/ok&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: Boleh nggak saya coba account virtualnya dulu?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Team Support&lt;/span&gt;: Boleh pak. Kami sangat menyarankan anda untuk berlatih dengan uang virtual, sekurang-kurangnya selama beberapa minggu sebelum anda memulai trading dengan uang sebenarnya. Setiap klien memperoleh uang virtual $10000 saat membuka account dan uang virtual ini dapat digunakan untuk berlatih dan menguji berbagai teknik trading. Tidak ada pembatasan berapa lama klien dapat trading menggunakan uang virtual :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: Selain itu, apa strategi yang bisa saya gunakan?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt; Team Support&lt;/span&gt;: Para trader membuat keputusan menggunakan kedua analisa yaitu teknikal dan fundamental. Analisa teknikal menggunakan chart, trend line, support dan resistant, pattern dan analisa matematis untuk mengidentifikasi peluang trading, sementara itu analisa fundamental memprediksi pergerakan harga dengan menterjemahkan berbagai informasi keadaan ekonomi, termasuk berita, laporan dan kebijakan yang dikeluarkan oleh pemerintah, dan juga rumor. Pergerakan harga yang sangat dramatis dapat terjadi apabila ada peristiwa-peristiwa yang tidak terduga. Peristiwa tersebut bisa berupa penaikan suku bunga dari bank central sampai peristiwa politik ataupun kegiatan perang. Meskipun demikian, seringkali bukanlah peristiwa itu sendiri yang menggerakkan pasar, akan tetapi ekspektasi dari sebuah peristiwa itulah yang menciptakan pergerakan pasar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: Apa saja analisis teknikal yang bisa saya gunakan?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt; Team Support&lt;/span&gt;: Kami menawarkan sejumlah indikator yang dapat anda gunakan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan tradingnya. Anda dapat dengan mudah menggabungkan beberapa indikator sekaligus untuk mendapatkan hasil trading yang terbaik. Untuk lebih jelasnya silahkan kunjungi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_analysis&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: Bagaimana sih prinsip trading valas ini sebenarnya?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt; Team Support&lt;/span&gt;: Tujuan anda dalam trading adalah membeli pada harga rendah dan kemudian menjualnya pada harga yang lebih tinggi. Sebagai contoh anda dapat membeli 10000 EUR/USD pada harga 1.2349 dan kemudian menjualnya nanti pada harga 1.2458. Maka anda akan menghasilkan keuntungan sebesar $109 dalam transaksi tersebut. Kami menyediakan untuk anda yang disebut Margin Trading: dengan modal $100 di account anda bisa trading dengan quantity 10000 (inilah leverage 1:100 atau margin yang diperlukan hanya sebesar 1%)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: Kemarin saya pernah baca-baca di internet tentang interest, di sini berapa interestnya?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Team Support&lt;/span&gt;: Marketiva telah menerapkan kebijakan Zero-Interest pada semua posisi open.

Pada saat suatu account melebihi leverage maksimum yang diperbolehkan, beberapa atau semua posisi open akan dilikuidasi segera. Untuk lebih jelasnya, silahkan masuk ke &lt;a href="http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=fx-margin-requirements&amp;gid=372"&gt;http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=fx-margin-requirements&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Berikut ini adalah yang akan membantu anda memahami kebutuhan margin: jika anda punya $15 pada trading desk dan anda punya posisi open dengan kuantiti 1000, margin used akan menjadi $10 dan anda punya $5 tertinggal sebagai margin yang tersedia. Jika anda mengalami loss pada posisi tersebut mencapai $5, posisi itu akan ditutup oleh margin call.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Calon Klien&lt;/span&gt;: saya udah selesai bikin account nih, bisa login pakai streamster sekarang?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Team Support&lt;/span&gt;:  Bisa pak :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Hallo saya udah login nih.&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Support&lt;/span&gt;: Silahkan menggunakan international support channel untuk support dengan bahasa indonesia/melayu.

Terima kasih :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ok&gt;&lt;/international&gt;&lt;/groups&gt;&lt;/discussions&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Okie... saya mo trading aja dulu.. nanti saya tanya lagi di international support deh.&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Long sama Short itu apa ya?&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt; Support&lt;/span&gt;: Posisi long (beli kemudian jual) dan short (jual kemudian beli) adalah: posisi di mana seorang trader membeli suatu mata uang pada harga tertentu dan bertujuan untuk menjualnya kemudian pada harga yang lebih tinggi. Dalam skenario ini, investor tersebut mendapatkan keuntungan dari market yang naik. Posisi short ialah suatu posisi di mana seorang trader menjual suatu mata uang pada harga tertentu dalam mengantisipasi harga yang akan turun. Dalam skenario ini investor mendapatkan keuntungan dari market yang turun.

Contohnya, jika harga pair EUR/USD yang sedang running adalah 1.1900, anda memperkirakan bahwa harga tersebut akan naik hingga 1.1920 dan akan terus naik ke 1.1950 maka anda bisa pasang stop order buy di 1.1920 dan take profit pada 1.1950.Order buy akan tereksekusi hanya jika harga pasar bergerak naik sampai ke titik stop yaitu 1.1920. Sedangkan limit order adalah suatu order untuk membeli di bawah harga sekarang atau menjual di atas harga sekarang. Contohnya, jika harga pair EUR/USD yang sedang running adalah 1.1950, anda memperkirakan bahwa harga tersebut akan naik hingga 1.1970 dan kemudian turun ke 1.1960 maka anda bisa pasang limit order sell di 1.1970 dan take profit pada 1.1960.Anda dapet mempelajari lebih lanjut di &lt;a href="http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=fx-orders-and-positions&amp;gid=372"&gt;http://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=fx-orders-and-positions&lt;/a&gt; :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Kalo Target sama Stop-L?  &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Support&lt;/span&gt;: Exit-stop loss gunanya untuk membatasi berapa kerugian yang pantas anda inginkan kalau rugi, sedangkan kalau Exit Target gunanya untuk tentukan berapa keuntungan yg anda inginkan.

Kalau full sama partial ini untuk apa ya?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Support&lt;/span&gt;: Tidak ada perbedaan apabila anda memilih quantity Full ataupun Partial pada saat mengisi kotak dialog Send Order. Bagian tersebut dimaksudkan untuk jenis aset lain dan tidak digunakan dalam instrumen forex.

Untuk mengisi rekening e-gold, anda bisa membeli di exchanger-exchanger yang terpercaya, anda bisa menanyakan di room indonesia atau mencarinya di www.google.co.id dengan kata kunci: &lt;a href="http://www.indochanger.com/?ref=yanisk"&gt;jual beli e-gold&lt;/a&gt;.

Proses withdrawal tidak dilakukan secara otomatis untuk pertimbangan keamanan, dan umunya membutuhkan waktu 6-24 jam untuk e-gold dan e-bullion, serta 2-7 hari untuk Wire Transfer. :-) Demi alasan keamanan proses withdrawl tidak pernah otomatis. Proses withdrawal dengan E-Gold dan E-Bullion akan memakan waktu 6-24 jam untuk diproses. Withdrawal dengan wire transfer membutuhkan waktu 2-7 hari kerja :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Apa yang harus saya lakukan jika mau withdrawal?  &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Support&lt;/span&gt;: Untuk melakukan permintaan withdrawal, anda perlu memverifikasi accountnya (hanya sekali) dengan mengupload dokumen identifikasi. Jika accountnya telah diverifikasi (sistem akan memberitahukannya pada halaman upload identifikasi), anda perlu mentransfer dana ke Default Desk melalui &lt;a href="https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=transfer-funds&amp;gid=372"&gt;https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=transfer-funds&lt;/a&gt; Anda kemudian perlu mengunjungi halaman &lt;a href="https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=withdraw-funds&amp;amp;gid=372"&gt;https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=withdraw-funds&lt;/a&gt; dan melakukan permintaan withdrawal :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Identifikasi, gimana tuh caranya?  &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Support&lt;/span&gt;: Dokumen yang dipelukan untuk proses identifikasi: 1. Picture Identification, bisa berupa kartu identitas yang berfoto, misal: KTP/SIM/IC; 2. Adress verification, adalah dokumen resmi yang mencantumkan alamat anda, contoh: tagihan telepon, listrik, air, dsb. Jika anda tidak mempunyai point no 2, anda dapat menggunakan KTP/SIM/IC saja, jadi fungsi KTP/SIM/IC sebagai picture identification sekaligus merangkap sebagai adress verification. Catatan: 1. Ukuran setiap file dokumen tidak boleh lebih dari 100kbyte; 2. Format harus dalam bentuk JPEG; 3. Hasil scan harus warna, minimal grayscale, tidak boleh hitam putih; 4. Upload kedua file tersebut secara bersamaan (kedua field identification harus diisi meskipun isinya sama yaitu scan KTP/SIM/IC saja). Silakan upload dokumen tersebut di: &lt;a href="https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=identification&amp;gid=372"&gt;https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=identification&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Oo.. begitu... saya belum punya scan KTP/SIM nih sekarang, boleh nggak nanti aja saya kirimkan?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Support&lt;/span&gt;: Boleh. Anda tidak harus segera mengupload ID ketika membuka accountnya; bagaimanapun, anda akan diharuskan menguploadnya sebelum melakukan withdrawal atau jika account anda kena status suspend. Untuk informasi lebih lanjut mengenai prosedur identifikasi, silakan lihat &lt;a href="https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=identification&amp;gid=372"&gt;https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=identification&lt;/a&gt; Prosedur identifikasi kami sangat efisien dan dokumen anda akan diperiksa dalam beberapa menit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Saya&lt;/span&gt;: Oke deh.. kayaknya segitu aja dulu, saya mo latihan trading dulu nih. Makasih banyak ya.. semoga sukses!  &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Support&lt;/span&gt;: Sama-sama :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Demikianlah hasil chating saya dengan salah seorang team support Marketiva yang bisa bahasa Indonesia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34723888-116511639321218789?l=7valas-online.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/feeds/116511639321218789/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=34723888&amp;postID=116511639321218789' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/116511639321218789'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/116511639321218789'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/2006/12/tanya-jawab-dengan-team-support.html' title='Tanya Jawab dengan Team Support Marketiva'/><author><name>Sukses Bersama</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11789730417729900277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34723888.post-116293238569928005</id><published>2006-11-07T12:45:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-07T12:47:14.656-08:00</updated><title type='text'>BELAJAR DAN BERMAIN FOREX</title><content type='html'>&lt;h3&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;BELAJAR DAN ERMAIN FOREX (SIMPLE, MUDAH DAN MENJANJIKAN)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Bagi anda yang ingin Mendapatkan Pendapatan Yang bisa dibilang tidak disedikit ini adalah cara yang termudah dengan meluangkan waktu sedikit di internet untuk bisa mewujudkannya.

Using pivot points as a trading strategy has been around for a long time and was originally used by floor traders. This was a nice simple way for floor traders to have some idea of where the market was heading during the course of the day with only a few simple calculations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The pivot point is the level at which the market direction changes for the day. Using some simple arithmetic and the previous days high, low and close, a series of points are derived. These points can be critical support and resistance levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The pivot level and levels calculated from that are collectively known as pivot levels.&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Every day the market you are following has an open, high, low and a close for the day (some markets like forex are 24 hours but generally use 5pm EST as the open and close). This information basically contains all the data you need to calculate the pivot levels. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The reason pivot points are so popular is that they are predictive as opposed to lagging. You use the information of the previous day to calculate potential turning points for the day you are about to trade (present day).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Because so many traders follow pivot points you will often find that the market reacts at these levels. This give you an opportunity to trade.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Before I go into how you calculate pivot points, I just want to point out that I have put an online calculator and a really neat desktop version that you can download for free &lt;a href="http://www.surefire-forex-trading.com/PP.html" target="_blank"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you would rather work the pivot points out by yourself, the formula I use is below:&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p&gt;Resistance 3 = High + 2*(Pivot - Low)&lt;br /&gt;  Resistance 2 = Pivot + (R1 - S1)&lt;br /&gt;  Resistance 1 = 2 * Pivot - Low&lt;br /&gt;  Pivot Point = ( High + Close + Low )/3&lt;br /&gt;  Support 1 = 2 * Pivot - High&lt;br /&gt;  Support 2 = Pivot - (R1 - S1)&lt;br /&gt;  Support 3 = Low - 2*(High - Pivot)&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;As you can see from the above formula, just by having the previous days high, low and close you eventually finish up with 7 points, 3 resistance levels, 3 support levels and the actual pivot point.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If the market opens above the pivot point then the bias for the day is for long trades as long as price remains above the pivot point. If the market opens below the pivot point then the bias for the day is for short trades as long as the market remains below the pivot point. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The three most important pivot points are R1, S1 and the actual pivot point. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The general idea behind trading pivot points is to look for a reversal or break of R1 or S1. By the time the market reaches R2,R3 or S2,S3 the market will already be overbought or oversold and these levels should be used for exits rather than entries.&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A perfect set up would be for the market to open above the pivot level and then stall slightly at R1 then go on to R2. You would enter on a break of R1 with a target of R2 and if the market was really strong close half at R2 and target R3 with the remainder of your position.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Unfortunately life is not that simple and we have to deal with each trading day the best way we can. I have picked a day at random from last week and what follows are some ideas on how you could have traded that day using pivot points.&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  On the 12th August 04 the Euro/Dollar (EUR/USD) had the following:&lt;br /&gt;  High - 1.2297&lt;br /&gt;  Low - 1.2213&lt;br /&gt;  Close - 1.2249&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p&gt;This gave us:&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p&gt;Resistance 3 = 1.2377&lt;br /&gt;  Resistance 2 = 1.2337&lt;br /&gt;  Resistance 1 = 1.2293&lt;br /&gt;  Pivot Point = 1.2253&lt;br /&gt;  Support 1 = 1.2209&lt;br /&gt;  Support 2 = 1.2169&lt;br /&gt;  Support 3 = 1.2125&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="left"&gt;Have a look at the 5 minute chart below&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Have a look at the 5 minute chart below&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.tradeology.com/images/pivotpoint.jpg" alt="forex" height="240" width="460" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The green line is the pivot point. The blue lines are resistance levels R1,R2 and R3. The red lines are support levels S1,S2 and S3. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There are loads of ways to trade this day using pivot points but I shall walk you through a few of them and discuss why some are good in certain situations and why some are bad.&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Breakout Trade&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;         &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; At the beginning of the day we were below the pivot point, so our bias is for short trades. A channel formed so you would be looking for a break out of the channel, preferably to the downside. In this type of trade you would have your sell entry order just below the lower channel line with a stop order just above the upper channel line and a target of S1. The problem on this day was that, S1 was very close to the breakout level and there was just not enough meat in the trade (13 pips). This is can be a good entry technique for you. Just because it was not suitable this day, does not mean it will not be suitable the next day.&lt;/div&gt;       &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.tradeology.com/images/channel.jpg" alt="fx" height="238" width="460" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Pullback Trade&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; This is one of my favorite set ups. The market passes through S1 and then pulls back. An entry order is placed below support, which in this case was the most recent low before the pullback. A stop is then placed above the pullback (the most recent high - peak) and a target set for S2. The problem again, on this day was that the target of S2 was to close, and the market never took out the previous support, which tells us that the market sentiment is beginning to change.&lt;/div&gt;       &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.tradeology.com/images/pullback.jpg" alt="bid-ask" height="239" width="460" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Advanced&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; As I mentioned earlier, there are lots of ways to trade with pivot points. A more advanced method is to use the cross of two moving averages as a confirmation of a breakout. You can even use combinations of indicators to help you make a decision. It might be the cross of two averages and also MACD must be in buy mode.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In the example below the market passed through S1 and then retraced to the S1 line again. It then formed a channel. At around this time we had a cross of the averages, MACD signaled buy and there was a breakout of the channel line. This gave a great signal to go long with a target of the original pivot line. &lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="left"&gt; Mess around with a few of your favorite indicators to help determine an entry around a pivot level but remember the signal is a break of a level and the indicators are just confirmation.&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.tradeology.com/images/advanced.jpg" alt="interbank" height="244" width="460" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="left"&gt;We haven't even got into patterns around pivot levels or failures but that is not the point of this lesson. I just want to introduce another possible way for you to trade.&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p align="left"&gt;Good Trading&lt;br /&gt;      Mark McRae&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Information, charts or examples contained in this lesson are for illustration and educational purposes only.

Apa kelebihan forex dibandingkan dengan investasi lainnya?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Artikel ini ada untuk menjawab pertanyaan diatas. Berikut beberapa kelebihan yang ditawarkan forex trading yang tidak dapat ditawarkan investasi lainnya:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Return on Investment tertinggi dibanding investasi lainnya. Adakah investasi yang sanggup menawarkan return hingga tak terbatas? Forex dapat melakukannya!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Likuiditas yang tinggi. Ini berarti Anda selalu dapat membeli atau menjual mata uang yang hendak Anda transaksikan dan tidak ada istilah gagal serah disini. Ketika Anda melakukan aksi beli, selalu ada pihak lain yang akan menjualnya kepada Anda dan sebaliknya. Ini terjadi karena memang lingkup investasi forex adalah bursa dunia yang saling terhubung satu sama lain. Berbeda dengan bursa lokal (ex: BEJ) dimana transaksi hanya berlangsung pada bursa tersebut saja sehingga dapat terjadi peristiwa gagal serah.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Modal yang dibutuhkan relatif kecil. Memang dahulu modal yang dibutuhkan bisa sangat besar (mencapai 100 Juta). Tapi kini dengan AsiaFxOnline dari PT AKKB, modal yang dibutuhkan hanya Rp 5 juta saja. Kalau di Marketiva anda tidak perlu menyetorkan sejumlah uang untuk mulai trading forex, cukup &lt;a href="https://www.marketiva.com/index.ncre?page=open-account&amp;amp;gid=372"&gt;isi form registrasi&lt;/a&gt; maka anda akan dapat modal $5 real dan $10000 virtual. Bandingkan dengan investasi lain misalnya saham yang membutuhkan modal setidaknya Rp 20 Juta atau investasi sektor riil yang biasanya lebih dari Rp 50 Juta.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Jam trading 24 jam sehari dan 5 hari seminggu. Tidak ada kata malam atau siang hari dalam dunia forex trading. Pasar berlangsung selama 24 jam sehari dimulai dari pasar Asia hingga pasar Eropa dan Amerika. Bandingkan dengan Saham yang hanya buka pada office hours atau pasar komoditi yang hanya buka pagi hingga siang hari. Jika Anda seorang pekerja kantoran, Anda dapat bertransaksi forex trading pada malam hari dan tidak mengganggu jam kerja Anda.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Dimana saja, kapan saja dan siapa saja bisa bergabung. Betul, investasi tidak mengenal kasta. Begitu juga dengan forex trading. Siapa pun Anda, pedagang, pekerja, seorang ibu rumah tangga atau bahkan seorang petani sekali pun dapat bergabung. Dan lebih hebatnya lagi dengan kemajuan dunia internet, Anda dapat bertrading dimana saja tanpa harus pergi ke bursa yang bersangkutan atau menelepon dealer Anda secara langsung. Ini jelas menghemat waktu dan biaya Anda!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Investor bertindak aktif dalam investasinya. Tidak seperti investasi lain dimana investor hanya dapat mempercayakan dananya dikelola pihak ketiga (reksadana, asuransi, deposito, dsb), pada forex trading Andalah yang menentukan sendiri kapan dan seberapa besar Anda hendak berinvestasi dengan melakukan aksi beli atau jual. Kini investasi Anda bergantung pada diri Anda sendiri dan tidak kepada orang lain. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Harga real time yang dapat Anda akses setiap saat secara cuma-cuma. Kami rasa ini sudah cukup, tidak perlu dijelaskan kembali. Semuanya gratis.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Tersedia demo account yang dapat Anda miliki secara gratis tanpa membayar sepesr pun! Jika Anda orang baru dalam dunia forex, ini akan sangat membantu Anda karena harga yang tertera pada demo account adalah sama dengan harga yang sesungguhnya terjadi di pasar.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Leverage yang ditawarkan 1:100. Ini artinya dengan satu bagian yang Anda keluarkan, Anda dapat membeli atau menjual sebanyak 100 bagian. Inilah kelebihan dari margin trading dimana yang dibutuhkan hanyalah jaminan saja untuk membeli atau menjual barang yang dibutuhkan. Pada forex trading ini diimplementasikan dengan modal sebesar 1 Juta Rupiah ($100) maka Anda dapat membeli Dollar sebanyak $10.000 dan juga sebaliknya untuk aksi jualnya. Itulah sebabnya margin yang dibutuhkan per lotnya pada AsiaFxOnline dipatok Rp 1 Juta.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Online reporting and transaction. Memang dahulu forex trading dilakukan melalui telepon dan laporan tertulis hasil transaksi Anda akan dikirim melalui email atau bahkan pos setiap bulannya. Tetapi kini dengan akses internet, bahkan laporan transaksi Anda pun dapat Anda akses kapan pun Anda mau tanpa harus menunggu dari pihak pialang melaporkannya kepada Anda.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Keamanan dan kerahasiaan terjamin. Meskipun transaksi dilakukan melalui internet bukan berarti kemanan dan kerahasiaan informasi serta dana Anda tidak dijamin. Pihak pialang menyediakan enskripsi data yang ditransaksikan dan dana Anda pun aman tersimpan pada segregated account apabila Anda melakukannya pada pialang yang legal.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;Jadi kini kami kembalikan kepada Anda untuk mempertimbangkannya secara obyektif dan menyesuaikannya dengan tujuan investasi Anda. Yang jelas, BelajarForex ada untuk membantu Anda memahami investasi satu ini dan memperoleh keuntungan maksimal darinya dengan menyediakan informasi selengkap dan sebaik mungkin. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34723888-115921910262670180?l=7valas-online.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/feeds/115921910262670180/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=34723888&amp;postID=115921910262670180' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/115921910262670180'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/115921910262670180'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/2006/09/forex-vs-other-investment-programs.html' title='Forex vs Other Investment Programs'/><author><name>Sukses Bersama</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11789730417729900277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34723888.post-115873217024734558</id><published>2006-09-19T23:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-09-19T23:02:50.266-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Marketiva Online Forex Trading</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" class="para"&gt;What Is &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.marketiva.com/?gid=372"&gt;Marketiva&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="para"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="para"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.marketiva.com/?gid=372"&gt;Marketiva&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="para"&gt; is a market maker for instruments traded on the over-the-counter foreign exchange (forex) markets.

In comparison, the daily volume of the New York Stock Exchange is approximately US$30 billion per day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until now, professional traders from major international commercial and investment banks have dominated the FX market. Other market participants range from large multinational corporations, global money managers, registered dealers, international money brokers, and futures and options traders, to private speculators.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are three main reasons to participate in the FX market. One is to facilitate an actual transaction, whereby international corporations convert profits made in foreign currencies into their domestic currency. Corporate treasurers and money managers also enter the FX market in order to hedge against unwanted exposure to future price movements in the currency market. The third and more popular reason is speculation for profit. In fact, today it is estimated that less than 5% of all trading on the FX market is actually facilitating a true commercial transaction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;How It Works&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Exchange is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another. The world's currencies are on a floating exchange rate and are always traded in pairs, for example Euro/Dollar or Dollar/Yen. In trading parlance, a long position is one in which a trader buys a currency at one price and aims to sell it later at a higher price. A short position is one in which the trader sells a currency in anticipation that it will depreciate. In every open position, an investor is long in one currency and shorts the other. FX traders express a position in terms of the first currency in the pair. For example, someone who has bought dollars and sold yen (USD/JPY) at 104.37 is considered to be long US Dollars and short Yen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most often traded or 'liquid' currencies are those of countries with stable governments, respected central banks, and low inflation. Today, over 85% of all daily transactions involve trading of the major currencies, including the US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, British Pound, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The FX market is considered an Over The Counter (OTC) or 'Interbank' market, due to the fact that transactions are conducted between two counterparts over the telephone or via an electronic network. Trading is not centralized on an exchange, as with the stock and futures markets. A true 24-hour market, Forex trading begins each day in Sydney, and moves around the globe as the business day begins in each financial center, first to Tokyo, London, and New York. Unlike any other financial market, investors can respond to currency fluctuations caused by economic, social and political events at the time they occur - day or night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Factors Affecting the Market&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currency prices are affected by a variety of economic and political conditions, most importantly interest rates, inflation and political stability. Moreover, governments sometimes participate in the Forex market to influence the value of their currencies, either by flooding the market with their domestic currency in an attempt to lower the price, or conversely buying in order to raise the price. This is known as Central Bank intervention. Any of these factors, as well as large market orders, can cause high volatility in currency prices. However, the size and volume of the Forex market makes it impossible for any one entity to "drive" the market for any length of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Fundamental vs. Technical Analysis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currency traders make decisions using both technical factors and economic fundamentals. Technical traders use charts, trend lines, support and resistance levels, and numerous patterns and mathematical analyses to identify trading opportunities, whereas fundamentalists predict price movements by interpreting a wide variety of economic information, including news, government-issued indicators and reports, and even rumor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most dramatic price movements however, occur when unexpected events happen. The event can range from a Central Bank raising domestic interest rates to the outcome of a political election or even an act of war. Nonetheless, more often it is the expectations surrounding an event that drives the market rather than the event itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Buying and Selling&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the forex market, currencies are always priced and traded in pairs. You simultaneously buy one currency and sell another, but you can determine which pair of currencies you wish to trade. For example, if you believe the value of the euro is going to increase vis-á-vis the U.S. Dollar, then you would go long on EUR/USD instrument (currency pair). Obviously, the objective of forex currency trading is to exchange one currency for another in the expectation that the market rate or price will change so that the currency you bought has increased its value relative to the one you sold. If you have bought a currency and the price appreciates in value, then you must sell the currency back in order to lock in the profit. An open trade or position is one in which a trader has either bought / sold one currency pair and has not sold / bought back the equivalent amount to effectively close the position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Market Conventions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Market conventions are rules and standards imposed by a governing body. In case of decentralized forex market these conventions might differ due to many national regulators (FSA, FSC, CFTC, NFA, BCSC, etc.). Since there is no central governing body that sets forex market rules and standards, we will reference only these that are universal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Quoting Conventions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first currency in the pair is referred to as the base currency, and the second currency is the counter or quote currency. The U.S Dollar is usually the base currency for quotes, and includes USD/JPY, USD/CHF, and USD/CAD. The exceptions are the Euro (EUR), Great Britain Pound (GBP), and Australian Dollar (AUD). As with all financial products, forex quotes include a "bid" and "ask", which is more often called "offer" in the forex market. The bid is the price at which a forex market maker is willing to buy (and you can sell) the base currency in exchange for the counter currency. The offer is the price at which a forex market maker will sell (and you can buy) the base currency in exchange for the counter currency. The difference between the bid and the offer price is referred to as the spread.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34723888-115873217024734558?l=7valas-online.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/feeds/115873217024734558/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=34723888&amp;postID=115873217024734558' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/115873217024734558'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/34723888/posts/default/115873217024734558'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7valas-online.blogspot.com/2006/09/marketiva-online-forex-trading.html' title='Marketiva Online Forex Trading'/><author><name>Sukses Bersama</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11789730417729900277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
