robs asked:


The last line of the statement reads as follows:

NET INCOME (2,295)

NET INCOME APPLICABLE TO COMMON SHARES (2,295)

Q1: This is a negative number correct?
Q2: In today’s economy where it seems so many companies are in the red i’m not sure how I should handle it, should I drop the stock or maybe roll with it on Monday and see what happens?

If it makes a difference it is a commodity…with a long term moving average that has been positive until it took a dive on Friday about 4%.

I am fairly new at trading so I welcome advice from experienced traders!

Best computer for trading in Forex?

Fit_Princess asked:


I am planning future possibilities of trading in Forex (foreign exchange). If you are familiar with this then please give me recommendations of what would be a suitable computer system for doing this. I don’t want anything super extravagant. I just need something as basic as possible yet good enough to keep up with trading Forex.
I think I was to vague when I said computer system. I don’t mean forex software. I want information of actually desktop computers such as brand and memory.

Gee the price is now climbing upward due to Obama mandates in his letting the oil barons raise prices.
Now get this please, this has nothing to do with oil shortage, oil demand, oil flow, nation ****** manipulation of commodity markets or the sudden revelation that crude oil causes you to loose weight if eaten on your Oprah Flakes at breakfast. This HAS TO DO WITH BARACK OBAMA raising oil prices just because he wants Americans using less gas, which keeps them under control more, makes them psychologically whipped BECAUSE HE IS IMPRISONING AMERICANS.

Just look back at things getting tight. Think hard if you were in a happy state of mind or if you felt trapped and a little more subdued in life was not so good. That is a psychological imprisonment which is no different than if you were locked up in jail. Those are economic bars which Obama uses effectively and is going to use them as a whip to get every one in line.

What no one else is informing you is this is quite illegal. No one on this earth can monopoly set prices on anything, gouging consumers and doing it just because they want to control something. It does not make any difference if it is money or worse yet humans. It is illegal.

Americans should be mad as hades over this, because they are watching it right before their very eyes and it is plundering their pocket books again. Obama seems to think Americans can crap money, because each day it is a thousand bucks more for cars, two thousand more for this. 10,000 more for that. Then there is health rationing. Then there is your jobs being lost.
It is never ending with this guy in the cage and I frankly do not believe for a second that it was what Obamaniacs voted for in inflating oil prices so the oil barons will earn billions of more dollars this year.
Obama supporters I will point out, the robber barons for George Bush and John McCain plummeted oil prices as American policy to smash the Eurasian communists. IT IS Barack Hussein Obama who is now inflating oil prices deliberately.

There is a long list of Obama crimes as recorded here, but where is the ACLU filing a criminal complaint against Barack Obama for raising oil prices?
Patsy; DURING THE CAMPAIGN OBAMA SAID THAT HE WANTED OIL GO BE $75/BARREL!!

Commodity Futures Trading

Commodity futures trading; why we love investing in the commodity markets.



FOREX trading is nothing more than direct access trading of different types of foreign currencies. In the past, foreign exchange trading was mostly limited to large banks and institutional traders. With the high tech advances in the last few years it has made it possible for the small traders to also take advantage of the many benefits of FOREX trading by using the numerous online trading platforms that are now available to the small investor.

The FOREX market holds outstanding attributes that offer incomparable potential for profitable trading.

For beginners’, FOREX trading has a 24-hour market, giving traders the chance to take advantage of profitable market conditions anytime. Secondly, the world’s Central Bank, which showed that daily trading volume presently averages $ 4.1 Trillion Dollars a day according to recent data release, the FOREX market is the most liquid market in the world. FOREX traders can enter or exit the market whenever they want, during almost any market condition. There also exist minimal execution barriers or risk and no daily trading limits.

For all the rewards of the FOREX market offers, one weakness emerges. The FOREX market is seen as unregulated although the operations of major dealers, like commercial banks in money centers, are regulated under the banking laws. The daily operations of retail FOREX brokerages are not regulated under any laws or regulations specific to the FOREX market. Many of these types of establishments in the United States don’t even report to the I.R.S. To make the most of the vast potential for successful FOREX trading, individuals should follow these guidelines.

1. Determine the quality of the broker institution you choose.

Unlike equity brokers, FOREX brokers are usually attached to large banks or lending institutions because of the large amounts of capital that is required. FOREX brokers should be registered with the Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) as well as regulated by the Commodity Future Trading Commission (CFTC)

2. Request a free trial.

Before you commit to any broker, be sure to request free trials so that you can test their different trading platforms. Brokers usually provide technical as well as fundamental commentaries, economic calendars and other research as a means of assisting you. Basically, a quality broker will provide everything one needs to succeed.

3. Monitor two financial meetings to provide awareness into the upcoming FOREX market.

Two important meetings FOREX traders should watch for are the federal Open Market Committee and the Humphrey Hawkins Hearings. By reading the reports and examining the commentary, FOREX fundamental analysts can get a better understanding of any and all long-term market trends it also allows short-term traders to be able to profit from predictable trends.
