Stocks and bonds can go to zero but not Forex.

All the best to those who are vested in Hyflux.

There is a reason what I listed in my signature is hard to rebute. The markets have many invisible hands behind it.

Forex also will have many invisible hands but they have to deal head on with central banks which is kamikaze mission. And it will never go to zero unless you are holding Zimbabwean dollar! :s13:

u talking in terms of Interactive Brokers?

most people who trade forex using CFD platforms or accounts.. u only need to top up SGD And the platform will convert everything automatically when u place a trade using SGD..

What you're doing is just 1:1 ratio non leverage 'trading'. Just like how I punt physical notes trading via Ah Neh money changers for the past 20 years.

You will have to open a proper Futures/Forex account with local or overseas brokerage to conduct Forex trading on margin which is a different ball game. See my signature.

Most punters will lose money in Future/Forex because you need to have a strategy and stick to it. Firstly your heart condition must be healthy. Some see position only drop 100 pips already chua sai like chua sai boy hahahaha. :D

I wish you all the best in Forex trading because long term wise can make money if you know what you are doing. Stocks and bonds are very risky if default/bankrupt sure hong kan liao.

Fed Funds Rate

Take note of swap interest after each Fed rate hike.

Interest rate differentials will widen as most majors are stalling their rate hikes as their economic recovery are at least 2 years behind USA.

Fed's target is to hike until it reaches 3% earliest by 2019 subject to economic and employment conditions.

Current rate is 1.75%. After today's rate hike it will be 2%. This is the indicator that I have been warning everyone. The implosion point has come. The defaults are coming liao. :s13:
