ya.. no stop loss is a valid strategy but it takes a lot of balls or maybe if u don't leverage so much so that you can top up enough for margin calls then ok..

its like if USD/SGD is 1.35 today and 1.20 next week.. it is quite impossible that it wont go back up to 1.35 unless something major happens to the US.. so u just long it and wait and wait for it to go back up, even if it drops down from 1.20 to 1.10 , it also doesn't matter because it will definitely go back up eventually

easy to say but not easy to do also, cos once u long it at 1.20 and it drops to 1.10 u will be pissing ur pants seeing the red

but what I don't like is the holding cost while u wait for it to go back up..

ya, was thinking, there will be cost involved with holding too long.

Swap Interest

Whether you receive or pay swap interest will depend on if position is short or long.

LONG | SHORT

Physical Gold


Even though I am a big fan of physical gold but it is the worst form of investment and cannot leverage. Only good for the following.

1) Anticipate financial system or government collapse
2) WW3
3) Need to run road

One kilobar at S$55,942. With that amount I can open one mega lot (US$1 Million) on the Foex market liao. :s13:

Eh deh you do not have to be Indian to love gold dah. :s13:

You ever hold gold bars in your hands before?

During when you are very young and if a Transformer toy is placed on your hands do you feel happy? Fast forward to adult life and the feeling is exactly the same when you hold physical gold bar in your hands. It is a spiritual thing that makes you temporarily forget about other issues. More like a therapeutic experience for me haha. :s13:
