New regulation taking effect on the 30th of this month, looks like they are limiting margin on exotic currencies.
not sure why they are doing this.
may be rampant speculation in emerging markets fueled by the weak USD,
anyone have any insight into this?

Learning a little about the market. Can you explain the method you are using to select your trades?
Thanks |

Got some verbage from FXDD today, looks like they are cracking down on their rules and margin levels are being cut to 100 to 1 and 25 to 1 on non-majors..
What kind of margin are you seeing where you trade? And it looks like volatility is slowing on most pairs..

#86 Posted: 11/25/2009 4:39:53 PM hey guys... couple weeks from hell for me. seems like everytime i try to get back to posting something comes up in the "real" life 
anyways, ive been getting those emails also. not a big deal to me, as i keep enough money in the account to not worry about any leverage. i believe they also noted that i could switch to their UK counterpart to avoid this. |

#91 Posted: 11/27/2009 1:05:42 AM i like that buck. its gonna be hitting some crazy resistance here at around 85 and the all time low that it has closed on the monthly candles is just below 85 (although the lower wick has reached down to 79ish
if you have a long term frame of mind for the trade that is not bad...i'd buy with a stop loss just below the all time low (since 1988 on the charts) and be looking for like you said about 1.10 |
