Forex and the Art of Timing

Forex and the Art of Timing

By: Martin Bottomley

At this precise moment in time there are four ordinary people trading the British Pound (GBP) versus the U.S. Dollar (USD).

There is nothing surprising in that. In fact many thousands of people are at this precise moment, most likely doing exactly the same.

What you may find surprising about these four individuals, lets call them John, Mary, Joe and Susan, are their individual trade results so far. Remember, they are all in their trades right now.

John is long the GBP and is showing profit. Mary is also long the GBP and is showing a loss. Joe is short the GBP and is also showing a loss. Susan is also short the GBP and is in profit.

Why is this?

If you take a look at a long term chart of the GBP/USD you will find that the GBP has been in an up trend since around February 2002, starting at a price of 1.3931 and has risen at it’s zenith to 2.0652 a rise of 6,721 pips or a reward of $67,210 for 1 standard lot at 100:1 leverage (not allowing for roll over interest), and is currently at a price of 2.0312

John bought the GBP against the USD in May 2002 at 1.4461. He got the timing right and is currently showing a profit of 5,851 pips or for 1 single standard lot at 100:1 leverage, $58,510 (not allowing for roll over interest).

Currencies tend to trend rather well over time, but they do not move in a straight line. They have periods when they are trending, periods when they retrace, periods when they consolidate and periods when they resume the trend.

Currencies can also reverse the trend and establish a new trend in the opposite direction, but we are looking at the GBP/USD which at the time of writing is still in the same direction of trend that it has been in since 2002.

Mary unfortunately got the timing wrong. She bought the GBP/USD on July 24th 2007 at 2.0650 and is currently down 338 pips or minus $3,380 (not allowing for roll over interest).

Joe also got his timing wrong when on March 31st 2006 he sold the GBP/USD at 1.8248 and is currently showing a loss of over $20,000.

Finally, we look at Susan’s trade. She sold the GBP yesterday at 2.0473 and is currently in profit by 161 pips.

So what is the lesson here? Despite what people may say, trading the Forex market is not as simple as deciding "Will it go up? or Will it go down?" because as you can see from the example above, even if you are right – you can still make a loss if you get the timing wrong.

One of the important aspects of trading is being on "the right side of the market". You could say that in some respects, like life in general, "timing is everything".

Currency Trading – Mindset of the Millionaire Traders

Currency Trading – Mindset of the Millionaire Traders

By: Kelly Price

95% of currency traders lose and yet there are some traders who are not more intelligent than these losers and they don’t work harder yet, they make money and lots of it. How do they do it? It’s mostly down to their mindset. Let’s look at why they succeed.

Desire and Responsibility

Most traders simply don’t have the hunger or desire to succeed and therefore won’t take responsibility for their actions.

The winning traders know that they are responsible for their success and take their destiny in their hands. Compare this to the huge number of traders who think currency trading is easy, or they can buy success from someone else.

The successful traders know its up to them and seek the right knowledge and they don’t necessarily work hard they work smart. They learn their own method (they may take others tools) but at the end of their homework they have something that most traders never get:

Rock solid confidence in themselves - and their forex trading system.

This is vital - as the following equation is vital for currency trading success.

Logical method = applied with discipline = currency trading success

If you don’t have confidence you will never have the discipline to apply your method and without it you have no method at all!

Discipline...

Is the one word most traders understand is vital to success but they can’t understand why they can’t achieve it without doing their homework in confidence.

The fact is unless you have confidence and understanding you won’t get discipline.

The millionaire traders also accept other facts that keep them on the right course

1. Forex trading is a game of odds not certainties.

You must accept this as you will lose for long periods of time and you need to accept it and be prepared to ride these periods out.

2. Simple is best

Any good currency trading system is essentially simple and they work best.

Try and be to clever and complicate your trading system and there will be to many elements to break and you will lose, as there are to many elements to break.

3. Play Great Defence

You need to defend what you have and make sure that you keep your losses under control most novice traders leverage up to much and get blown out.

Money management is all about taking calculated risks at the right time and taking meaningful risks when you do.

4. The Great Traders Love Risk

If you don’t like taking risks forget forex trading!

You need to up your bet size when the opportunities arise and if you don’t you will never win. The fact is most traders are so frightened of losing, they ensure they will never win.

To make money you need to take risks and love them.

5. Isolation

All the great traders trade in isolation – they don’t consult anyone for advice, they have inner confidence and rely on themselves.

Finally – they love what they do with all its ups and downs.

To learn currency trading is easy - to apply the knowledge in the right way is hard.

It requires a mindset that combines the right knowledge, confidence, conviction a cool head and discipline. These are traits most traders cannot and never will acquire – they could do so if they wanted to.

If you are prepared to adopt the right mindset maybe you could become a millionaire trading success to! Good luck.

Are we revisiting the past?

Are we revisiting the past?

By: Mike Wright

Last week the 20 year anniversary of the 1987 crash passed with a significantly negative close for all major stock markets.

A sell off, but it was some way off being a repeat of that day 20 years ago that wiped off 12.2% of the value of British shares in one trading session. It is interesting to note that neither the 1987 or 1929 crashes led to a recession and the Dow actually finished up for the year after the ’87 crash. Indeed as of the time of writing the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 700% from its 87 crash low.

The Nasdaq was again the strongest market relatively (although that wasn’t saying much after Friday’s rout). Google yet again beat analyst’s estimates with increased revenue coming on steam from acquisitions such as You Tube. They now handle 57% of all web searches which is twice as much as Yahoo, their closest competitor.

Despite the strength in the new economy, the bears have plenty of reasons to fuel the selling we saw on Friday. Oil hit $90 per barrel for the first time ever, Gold continues to surge and the US Dollar hit and all time low against the Euro. Banking stocks fell hard amid concerns that the credit crunch may have even more profound and lasting effects than originally feared. Bank of America reported trading losses brought on primarily by the credit crisis. Despite soaring energy prices, it was the energy giants and oil service handlers that fell hard on Friday due to fears over future earnings. Their sector’s weighting in the main indices may have magnified the overall slump.

Two year US treasury notes recorded their biggest weekly gain since 2002 as traders priced in a 70% chance of another Fed cut while the ECB came until renewed pressure from politicians to relax their tightening bias.

For the moment though, US consumers in particular may not feel the immediate pinch of the record oil prices. Mark Zandi of Moody’s Economy.com (source CNBC) found that the current oil price is actually $11 below the inflation adjusted high of $101.70. In addition, adjusting for inflation consuming spending is 3% less than in 1980, household income up 42%, median house prices up 40% and pump prices up just 1%.

So in the short term US consumers may be able to weather this storm, but if this price pressure persists coupled with an ever worsening housing market then the lifeblood of the US economy, the consumer will eventually have to tighten their belts.

Wednesday and Thursday’s home sales data will help us see how far down the line this scenario actually is. Thursday’s crude oil inventories could have a disproportionate effect on the market in light of the current market conditions. The US market’s may bounce back in the short term as the selling pressure could be a tad overdone, but the weight of negative economic sentiment may be too much of a wall for this bull market to climb in the intermediate term. A difficult market to call.

The currency markets may therefore offer the better trading opportunity over the next week. With a 70% chance of rate cut already priced into US markets and the ECB not expected to budge this side of Christmas, there is the possibility at least the Dollar could stabilise next week against the Euro between now and the next FOMC meeting at the end of the month. According to traders at BetOnMarkets.com, a no touch 2.5 cents above the current spot price yields 8% over 7 days.

Wall street Rally...Credit Crisis Over?

Wall street Rally...Credit Crisis Over?

By: Mike Wright

Last week the ECB (European central bank) and MPC (UK central bank) opted to take a ‘wait and see’ approach with interest rates. Both announced that they would be leaving interest rates on hold, preferring to see how their respective economies hold up after the summer turmoil. Many economists are expecting both to move to a loosening bias in the future, with the UK predicted to cut rates before the end of the year.

Early last week US markets powered higher on the release of economic data that increased the likelihood of a further 25BP cut in interest rates. The Dow Jones smashed through its previous record high of 14,000, while the broader S&P500 followed suit on Friday. Leading the charge has been the high tech Nasdaq 100 with companies such as Google, Apple and RIM (Blackberry) powering to record levels. Many questioned Google’s IPO price of $100 per share, but with a share price approaching $600, Google continues to grow at an astonishing pace.

Next week starts with some heavy announcements for the UK, with PPI and industrial production figures having a potential impact on any interest rate decisions. FOMC meeting minutes are usually scrutinised word by word by Fed watchers, and Tuesday’s release of this information will be no different. Every line will be examined and opaque sentences will be interpreted, all in the hope of garnering clues as to the likelihood of a further rate cut. Wall Street is baying for another cut, and any hints either way could see the market move significantly. Friday sees the release of vital retail spending and consumer sentiment data in the US, both of which will reveal how much the recent credit turmoil has affected the wider economy. Some economists have put the chances of a recession in the US as high as 50%, but this view was questioned with stronger than expected payroll numbers last Friday.

Elsewhere on the currency markets the Euro has come off its highs against the Dollar and Sterling, but remains well above pre summer/ pre spike levels. Part of the reason for this strength has been the drop in interest rates in the US in comparison to the tightening bias of the EBC. Both the EBC and MPC may follow their American cousins in cutting rates, but if they do, it is perhaps likely that there could be a time lag between a potential MPC cut and a potential EBC cut.

On this basis the Euro could remain strong against the sterling until 2008. In addition December could bring a shock to the UK government finances. A recent report revealed that by December the Government may have to include its PFI liabilities on its balance sheet. If this were indeed to occur it could put further pressure on Sterling as government debt increases. With this in mind, a no touch trade could be a suitable option on the EURO/ GBP exchange rate. A no touch with a trigger at 0.6700 over 90 days returns 12%. This allows time for any potential PFI difficulties to come into play.

Personal commentary From Matt Shaw

The Dow continues to play tag with the 14000 level. I do however think, that anything beyond 14200 on the Dow will not be seen for several weeks now, possibly months.

For the S&P, if we break below the 1445 level over the next 2-3 sessions, then the sell-off could commence. I estimate that we will begin the breakdown (if it hasn't already started), by way of a gradual process after next Tuesday/Wednesday - 9th/10th Oct'

There is a lot of cash out there right now, ready to be put to work. Before now, it has been split evenly between Stock Funds and Credit Funds. With the Credit Crunch saga coming to fruition (funny choice of phrase) of late, this has led to many people cashing in their investments from Credit funds, Bond funds and Fixed Income, then put them to work into equities.

Equities seemed like some sort of safe haven and losses are seemingly more controlled. Combine these factors with low interest rates, and the backdrop of inflation, and it seems equities were an ‘easy buy’, hence no big sell-off toward the end of Sept.

I now feel that we are set to Range trade over the coming weeks and I say this with a mild hint of hesitation - we may then sell-off from (more than mildly) end middle/end of Oct. With the FTSE - Resistance 6610 with support at 6325. This week could be the start of a strong decline, or new highs, by way of a further 1-2% rise!

Fund Managers On The Move and Your Strategic Asset Allocation

Fund Managers On The Move and Your Strategic Asset Allocation

By: Ray Prince

Recent research by Citywire, a leading fund research firm, has revealed that the average fund will only retain its fund management team for two-and-a-half-years.

The analysis, which concentrates on UK funds, is the most comprehensive conducted yet and includes 5 years of data.

The survey examined 1,741 funds and found that over the 5 years to the end of August there were 3,440 manager moves.

It was found that managers are more likely to move during times of stock market turmoil, and unsurprisingly they move less when markets are doing well.

Let's look at some statistics:

- during the 2002/03 bear market, 27% of funds changed hands

- in the year to August 2004 some 23% changed hands

- in 2005 it was 19%

- and 15% in 2006

But what do all these moves mean to you?

If the manager(s) of your investment fund(s) have moved during the last 2 years (and the likelihood is that some will have) you have a number of options:

- leave your money invested where it is

- find out where the fund manager has moved to and transfer your money there (check the details of the fund on offer)

- take a step back and look at whether your money is being invested with a STRATEGIC investment philosophy, as opposed to a TACTICAL approach

The reality (in our experience) is that many investors are following the tactical approach. They hold a number of funds, perhaps with a handful of product providers, and have no real idea where their money is actually invested or which fund managers are in charge anyway.

In fact, one recent client that we dealt with had total investments (Pensions, ISAs, PEPs) of £300,000, spread across 6 providers and 13 funds. Once the overall portfolio was broken down we saw that he had an 89% exposure to equities/shares. When we analysed his attitude to risk it was shown that he would be uncomfortable with more than 55% exposure to equities.

We also calculated that he did not need to take as much equity risk that he was as he was on track to achieve his overall retirement income goals.

What we did in this case was alter his overall portfolio so that:

- his exposure to equities was reduced to 50%

- we created a portfolio that was invested predominantly in low cost asset class institutional funds

- we added a percentage of bond funds to act as an insurance against market falls

- we adopted a 'buy and hold' strategy to minimise fund trading costs (if you don't know what these are you need to find out)

Academic studies show that Strategic Asset Allocation is behind 90% of a portfolio's return. Ibbotson Associates conducted research that shows that:

- 91.5% of a portolio's return is due to strategic asset allocation

- 4.6% is due to stock picking

- 1.8% is due to tactical asset allocation (market timing)

And William Bernstein of The Intelligent Asset Allocator said:

"Market timing and security selection are obviously important. The problem is that nobody achieves long-term success in the former, and almost nobody in the latter. Asset allocation is the only factor affecting your investments that you can actually influence"

So why don't investors folow this path if all the research points this way?

There are a number of reasons:

- ignorance (never heard of it)

- ignorance (heard of it but can't be bothered)

- greed (I can pick best performing funds and beat the market)

- ego (I know best, don't tell me what to do)

- conditioning (I don't want to do something my peers are not)

And no doubt there are many other reasons.

Some in the fund management industry will have you believe that all you have to do is pick a few good funds and you'll be well on the way to making great returns on your capital.

Of course, this could happen, but all the research points to adopting a DIFFERENT approach. One which you're probably not aware of right now.

So what can you do?

Simple.

Find out how this alternative approach works. Do your research, just as we have.

The Financial Tips Bottom Line

Think about this for a minute.

As impartial advisers we are able to recommend ANY fund from the thousands available.

What we've done though is take a step back (a number of years ago) and look at the alternative investment methods available to our clients. All based around Strategic Asset Allocation.

Maybe it's time for you to do the same.

ACTION POINT

The reality is that we have yet to meet a new client who understands the importance of asset allocation (and the majority have never heard of it). Just google the term and you'll see 2.8m results.

The good news is that it's relatively easy to implement a strategic asset allocation approach with your investments. It's just a case of knowing which buttons to press to make it happen.

Keeping things in perspective

Keeping things in perspective

By: Monty Guild

KEEPING THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE

Posted On: Tue, Oct 23, 2007 Author: Monty Guild & Tony Danaher

Let’s keep things in perspective. None of this is rocket science, but it is easy to get carried away by fear and greed. Those who win are those who keep their wits about them.

Here are some probable events that we are looking forward to.

1. The U.S. dollar will continue to fall. It will fall in an orderly manner, and while it will not fall to zero, we do expect it to fall more. Eventually, the U.S. will have more exports and fewer imports, so the balance of trade will be a little better.

2. Gold will rise. We expect gold to rise substantially, but it will not soon go above $1,650 an ounce. Who cares if it doesn’t go above that? $1,650 is a great deal higher than where it is now…and we will all make a lot of money when it happens.

3. While U.S. stocks have risen in the high single digit percent on average for many decades, it has been done with an economy that is a slow grower by today’s global standards. Why then can't fast growing countries provide much more than 8 percent growth? The answer is they can…and they will.

4. Fast growing markets like India and China are attractive long term, but they can have sharp corrections at any time. In fact, India recently began to correct when the finance minister made an unpopular announcement. He later publicly recanted part of it and explained it, and the market is now rising again. It is our strategy to buy on the dips and sell some on the rallies.

5. If China gets a decline...as it does most every year or so, we will be ready to buy. The Chinese market will go much higher in coming years and any good declines are buying opportunities.

6. We believe that the Indian and Chinese economies are going to grow very fast for many years to come, and if you want to make money go where corporate profits are growing fast. Corporate profits are the fuel that feeds the stock market engine in each country. European and U.S. corporate profits are growing slowly. India's and China's corporate profits are growing fast. It is pretty simple.

THE GLOBAL CREDIT CRISIS WILL MOST LIKELY BE PAID FOR BY THE TAXPAYERS

There is a global credit crisis…created in Europe and the U.S. The bonds that guys at the major banks bought are worth a lot less than they are on the books for. Will the banks mark them down and eat the loss? That is very doubtful. Will they cook up a scheme like the $100 billion fund to buy the best quality bonds at a small discount that U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson is promoting? Probably. Then, we would expect lower quality, more worthless bonds will be bought by a fund made up of money from the world’s biggest stickees (taxpayers), mainly the U.S. taxpayers…who in recent years have been the designated ‘bailer-outers’ of major speculation gone wrong.

Remember the savings and loan crisis? When savings and loan executives became billionaires and multimillionaires by wheeling and dealing with government insured money, who go stuck with that bill? When the savings and loan execs did stupid things and the loans could not be repaid, who paid the tab? The guys who got rich on the savings and loan boom? Nope…the stickees were the U.S. taxpayers. Sure, some people went to jail, but eventually the U.S. taxpayers got stuck with the bill.

Now, we can be wrong, and it may not happen as we see it...but we are willing to bet that this current debt crisis will be the same type of thing and the stickees will not be the Wall Street group who made many billions syndicating and selling the bonds that have gone bad. It will be interesting to see.

Thanks for listening.

ROCKETInfo: Faster than Google, Deeper than Yahoo, More Specific than a Speeding Bullet

ROCKETInfo: Faster than Google, Deeper than Yahoo, More Specific than a Speeding Bullet

By: John Hurst

All of us are hip, on-line and Internet-savvy. But we don’t know the beast.

This is the core message of Bill Ganz, the president and CEO of next-step search engine ROCKETInfo Inc. (OTC:RKTI). It is a search technology company in the spirit of Google and Yahoo!, but with a new approach to the delivery of results, news and business information.

The growth potential for ROCKETInfo is remarkable: Just the business process management (BPM) aspect of this industry, including software, services and maintenance, will grow to $6.3 billion annually by 2011, according to a report by Forrester Research, an independent technology and market research company. Analysts project a growth rate for the BPM sector of up to 35 percent annually.

ROCKETInfo does two things very well for businesses of all kinds: It is provides search engine services and is a content server that delivers targeted and relevant content such as news and financial information. The software has been designed to automate the process of defining, collecting, analyzing and delivering relevant, current news from an international pool of reputable news, media and other sources.

It is essentially publishing monolith of potentially gargantuan proportions.

Ganz’ homily: "The nexus of the dot.com era afforded a lot of ideas that were funded and what’s happening right now is that these ideas have worked. Things are now better, faster and cheaper if you understand your media and technology."

Ganz said that exploring ROCKETInfo’s services is much like waking up in a new world. Internet users who have become used to searching for information with providers like Google and Yahoo, he said, get millions of results per search, much of them segregated into paid-for categories. The problem is, most of this information is neither wanted nor needed. ROCKETInfo’s proprietary software filters the junk, the ads, the spam, and delivers only the desired content.

He added that, like Google and other popular search engines, ROCKETInfo provides an advanced Boolean search, but with a higher IQ – the search engine can be trained to discern the quality of information it gathers. Ganz said that for businesses, this means profound changes for gathering information on competitors, and especially in media monitoring.

"In today’s economy, the gold standard of currency is intelligent, dynamic and real-time information and knowledge management," Ganz said. "The truth is, people are looking for information that is relevant – for us, about us."

In one of its most popular applications, Ganz said, ROCKETInfo delivers RSS news to the desktop, and especially to the investment industry. His system parses out information where it’s wanted, from a growing database of 80,000 sources, including 16,000 publishers, plus 30,000 blogs and podcasts.

"Simply put," he stated, "we’re similar to what TiVo (which finds and digitally records select television broadcasts on demand) does for television, except we do it for the Internet."

"A ROCKETInfo search," he said, "specializes in news that is happening right now. We don’t store news like Google, Yahoo, MSN, Alta Vista, Ask – those other large search companies – because we believe that news happens, that decisions you make now in your business and personal life today, are your future.

"It’s the speed, immediacy and the breadth of information that we deliver to our clients. We provide this learned data to you, metaphorically, in a box with a bow on it. We deliver it to your desktop, website, e-mails or newsletters – this is synthesized, refined data."

The reason ROCKETInfo is so fast is because of how it decides to refine the information and how fast it decides to refresh it. Its web services are an integrated collection of technology layers based on the proprietary Rocket Enterprise Server platform. The technology stack is comprised of collection, storage, search, analysis and delivery layers.

"We choose to refresh so quickly and search our databases so frequently because the speed of the information matters so much in the sporting world, the investment world and the business world. Speed matters. The time latency is the liability."

Ganz describes ROCKETInfo’s search capabilities with a drilling metaphor: "Google offers a two-mile-wide search that is three inches deep. ROCKETInfo," he said, "offers a three-inch hole that goes two miles deep."

Founded in 1998, ROCKETInfo, Inc. has its headquarters in Newport Beach, Calif., with research and development operations in Vancouver and Toronto and professional services in Ottawa. It claims over 95,000 registered users and RSS Reader / desktop downloads and more than seven million monthly searches. It has a staff of 17, plus many consultants and contractors.

Currently trading at 24 cents, ROCKETInfo has reported a market cap of $12.46 million, which demonstrates incredible upside potential for the ground floor investor. ROCKETInfo has 41.21 million shares outstanding.
