Dollars or Euros?

2008-07-18T01:03:00.000-07:00

I was looking for a small power boat to buy and found a site called Mr.Boating (http://www.mrboating.com/). It's very common to the other sites providing boat and yacht search but one interesting feature has attracted my attention.

Look at the top of the main page and you'll see the possibility to change the currency. Yes, you can choose the currency. The program automatically recalculates all the boats and yachts prices. It's very convenient as I think.

By the way we are speaking not only about dollars or euros but 9 different currencies!

Real estate news

I’m fond of reading real estate news and articles in my free time. I prefer to read them mainly online. I appreciate the real estate website Fizber.com, which is very useful also for fsbos. Once I’ve visited the Press Room: http://www.fizber.com/press-room.htm on Fizber and now I constantly read real estate news there. In the Press Room you can get acquainted with the latest news and achievements in the sphere of real estate.
To sum up, Fizber.com may be undoubtedly included into the list of FSBO best sites that offer a wide range of all possible services to their clients.

We are a family of busy people – we run business and very often have no time to see if all is good around the house. Our house is quite an old one but we love it dearly and can’t see ourselves in any other place. So when we started facing problems with some repairing we always kept leaving it till later. But when no time was left to wait we simply had to do something. Calling different agencies and companies didn’t give any results. We had to fix the date, wait till the person would come, stay there and at the same time you never know when it is finished. OK, after all these you thought no more troubles were left but here you are – everything started all over again.

I’m not very patient and easily get irritated when others can’t do their job in a right way. And once working on the Internet quite by chance I found FSBO site (http://www.fizber.com/). It was what I needed. All I had to do is to go to ‘Home Warranty’ (http://www.fizber.com/sale-by-owner-home-services/home-warranty), type my ZIP code and submit. Thanks guys, you do a great job. I’ve got the results very quickly.

FOREX EUR/USD for 12/13/06

2006-12-14T08:12:00.000-08:00

Yesterday FOREX EUR/USD closed at 1.3225. EUR has decreased comparing to dollar. It seems that the main factor was the publication about increased retail sales. On Wednesday the US Ministry of Trade announced that retail sales increased by 1,0%. It’s much greater than predicted earlier 0,2%. The whole November was really outstanding for US economy.

Market or traders?

2006-12-13T05:53:00.000-08:00

One of the most important things one has to understand about the Forex market is hidden in the following idea (as I think). In order to earn money the trader doesn’t need to be cleverer than a market in general. You need to beat the other Forex traders. Not all of them! But you need to beat at least 50%. If you make right predictions and forecasts in more than half of you decisions you’ll get the money. I want to share my opinion why this happens.

When many people think that currency will grow they star buying it. As a result the demand at FOREX market increases and the currency price grows. As traders see this they start selling in order to get their money with profit. As many people sell supply increases and prices fall… so, the first half of traders earns money, but the others loose’em. It’s like: first come – first served :-).

One more time – don’t try to beat the Forex system. Your winning strategy is hidden in the opportunity to react faster than the others!

Pro FOREX trading

2006-12-06T08:59:00.000-08:00

Most of us have to earn money for living. Trade was one of the easiest businesses forages. But during centuries merchants sold goods, later services - something worth of some value. But as time passed goods and services became not enough. Businessmen wanted to sell easier. I mean – to get money from trade without any other additional responsibilities – no warranty, no disappointed customers and so on… Stock market and FOREX became the best answer to these requirements… Till today… And not only because it sounds interesting but for some really economic reasons.

Big opportunities are provided by financial currency markets as experts evaluate their size appr. $2 trillion per day. This tremendous size result in liquidity of that kind of business (investor can return his/her capital rather easy and without loosing much money as it may happen when you trade goods and demand falls). On the other hand this market is very close to the ideal model of perfect (pure) competition with all its advantages. Almost everybody can have access to complete and correct information and nobody can be enough big to influence the prices and situation in general. So, the conclusion: most of economic laws work correctly and investor can use them to forecast the situation for the upcoming period.

By the way liquidity of forex trading comes from easiness of entry. You can start trading with $200 and this amount is decreasing. Last year it was $250 (decreased by 20%). I think in 10 years it’ll be less then $100 because of competition between different companies providing forex accounts :-). At the same time profit potential is unlimited. And the opportunity to trade doesn’t depend on time and economic situation in the country or world economy in general. It happens because forex trade can earn money either when currency goes up or down.
