Hmmm, now XTrade got me thinkin, i will have to find another broker, after a little search i've done via Google, i have found a top rating of the forex brokers, i really do not know how it's made and on what it's based on, but the Gain Capital i'm trading with are on the 78th place from 100, thats not good, even though i didn;t encounter the slightest problem with them...but better to be safe then sorry.

I will remain indifferent to the bold parts. I think you have understood my position on this matter via my prior posts.

Now, I will say to the second bolding, again indifferent. You "THINK" there has never been a problem, not saying there has been but, unless you have done a personal audit of all your trades, you just don't know.

Think of the trillions of dollars turned daily in forex. Think of one broker - large retail broker even cheating, stealing, widening whatever 1/10th of every OTHER pip on all customers. Trust me it will add up at the end of the year.!

Ever get - requotes? ever get, 9 second placement of execution on a trade during a slow session?
Here are some others,
Tick chart freezes, downticks then you are filled
-"OFF QUOTES"
- "Trade context busy"
- "INVALID PRICES" - HOW ARE THEY INVALID WHEN THEY are the ones quoting em'?????

These are just a few. My first account was MT4 via an IB that I thought was trustworthy, after researching a bit I found some things I did not like at all.

It turned out all of the nightmarish cheating techniques I read and investigated so thoroughly were all happening to me. Needless to say trading - especially scalping was a NIGHTMARE, I truly felt it was me vs them.

It did not end well. But we all have to pay our dues.

There are some decent brokers out there, and the really good ones like CQG platform, (more futures) IB, some of the others elude me cost a fee for the service before trading. THey usually all charge commissions and have extremely tight or low spreads.

BTW: wouldn't put too much stock into that list either - I have never even heard of the so called no. one....

I still hear no yes from OANDA to trade gold in margin.

PS: and that bold part is why I like you and your posts!!!

Is it me or is silver hovering between 37.50 - 37.70? My Daily shows me a constant downtrend, but my gut tells me we may have reached the new low for the Sterling.

This year? I would say this month... if not this week..

If we talk about terms of year I would say 2000 or more..

Man we are in august and reached 1780 today, so 1800 is very very near.

I assume that touching 37 is a signal for bulls to start buying.

IMO
Silver is a manufacturing material and with the projected down turn in the future economies The demand will be low, so goes the price

Otherwise how can Silver be going down and Gold at all time Highs

there is some truth in that but remember that the silver market is very much smaller than the gold market. there are numerous sources that contend it is therefore far easier to manipulate...

suggest you listen to BOTH these interviews for context etc:

THe two don't always have to follow eachother. There is no unwritten rule if you will. Silver is used in jewellery as well as industrial apps. It has some now but not the same safe haven appeal as Gold does.


BTW: seems we found a bit of resistance at 1780.

FOMC: Just fixed up my whole currency trading day! Allowing me to leave green with a 200 pip long on Aussie.

20min GC fork originally shown yesterday - support seen along quartile leading to some very large upside moves. These things are too exact to be pure chance time and again, aren't they....

Best "I" can hope for to average in on top of my New Small Lot Longs.
If it doesn't get back to 1,700 this week, I doubt it will for a while.

Also people have the notion of buying gold to hold value, not such status is with silver.
