Forex Bank Trading
Im getting pretty sick of people talking about a financial or global credit crisis even if the experts are saying we should be scared. I mean if you look into the past and see that this sort thing usually follows a sine curve relaitonship there really isnt anyway for us to dodge these credit crunchs anyway. You cannot have unlimited growth of the economy with no sign of it stopping, it just goes against all the economic laws. We really should have seen this coming, I think history can tell us alot here. The law that exists in nature and with everything else on this earth is that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It only gets transferred into different forms
Anyway now that every one is losing all of these jobs and money is apparently scarce what do we do about it?
I say if you looking for a new job and you understand some stuff about the currency market then forex bank trading is right for you.
The money is still out there guys its just in different forms.
Locked up in hard to reach places. If you want to be rich in this tough economic time you need to follow the money. You may no that 4 trillion..!!!!
dollars is traded on the forex market every day… Yes I did say every day.
Very hard to believe huh
It seems a ridiculous amount of money to be transferred every day when thousands of people elsewhere are losing jobs and struggling to earn minimum wage. Are you starting to get it??? This is how the rich think, if you keep watching the tv and reading the newspaper that is all you are going to here and quite frankly I am sick of it.
If all you think about is doom doom doom then guess what you will get it. I prefer the more logical approach and think money money money because that is what I am after.
One place you can find it is in forex bank trading. Forex bank trading is one of those things that people get a bit scared of and start freaking out.
I agree at times it can be seriously daunting but like anything if you stick with it for any length of time you will achieve the financial freedom you are after with forex bank trading.
There are forex robots and software that can help you like fap turbo etc etc but I prefer to understand the basics first before rushing into the game unprepared.
If you go and open up a play account at the likes of etoro or easy forex and start to get a feel for it then perhaps start to invest some money in it.
But first learn the basics like spreads, pips and calls.
“Forex Trading can offer the most unique opportunity yet in the current economic climate, providing a large financial income with little risk.
The standard investment vehicles such as stocks have suffered decimation as the result of the massive tumble in stock markets around the world.
Money from high interest bank savings accounts returns have also plummeted due to extreme cuts in bank lending rates. However a few investors are making profits via forex bank trading.”
This comment from ezine articles is to true and if only more people knew the potential of this market.
The forex bank trading market.

Primer on the Upcoming Registration Rules
Many investment managers who have been trading in the off-exchange spot forex markets have enjoyed considerable success. These managers also have not generally been subject to any registration or regulatory regimes because the spot forex markets are relatively unregulated. However, with the passage of the Farm Bill by Congress in 2008, off-exchange forex registration will become regulated in 2009 forcing forex managers to register with the CFTC.
CFTC and the NFA
The CFTC will be releasing proposed rules regarding the registration requirements within the next couple of months. After that time there will be a comment period where the rules can be reconsidered. After the rules are approved registration will probably be required by the end of 2009. The NFA will be in charge of many aspects of the registration process and they have already released much information on the registration process.
For example, the NFA has announced new registration categories which apply only to forex managers. These new registration categories are as follows: forex CPOs (firms or individuals who manage forex commodity pools or forex hedge funds), forex CTAs (firms or individuals who manage individual forex accounts), forex introducing brokers (firms or individuals who introduce forex managers to forex dealer members), and forex APs (associated persons - basically any employee of a forex firm except for administrative persons).
Series 34 Exam
The NFA is making forex managers (and forex introducing brokers) take the Series 34 exam which is a regulatory exam dealing with the off-exchange foreign currency markets. The Series 34 exam will consist of 5 sections and will deal with a number of topics. The NFA has stated that the exam will be one hour long. Like the other regulatory exams, the Series 34 will be administered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Agency (FINRA). The actual exam can be taken at testing locations throughout the United States through Pearson and Prometric testing centers.
Registration Process
Firms which are applying for any of the above designation categories will likely need to go through the standard NFA registration procedures. This will include submitting both a 7-R and an 8-R. Like regular CPO, CTA and IB applications, these forex applications should take around one month to be approved (assuming there are no issues with the application such as disciplinary history). The forex managers will then need to submit their disclosure documents to the NFA for review. This review process can take as little as two weeks, but it is likely to take much longer as the NFA staff becomes more comfortable with the intricacies of the forex disclosure documents as compared to normal disclosure documents.
Will registration be the end of the world?
First, forex registration is not the end of the world. In our experience (with regard to CPOs and CTAs), the registration process is relatively straightforward and can be completed relatively quickly. Submitting the forex disclosure documents to the NFA and getting those approved should also be a relatively painless experience. That is not to say, however, that you should attempt registration by yourself. Law firms and forex compliance firms will be able to help you through the registration process and will be able to get your business up and running fast. Ongoing compliance is relatively minimal - for most managers an NFA audit will be unlikely and, in the event of an audit there should not be a large impact on the business.
Conclusion
Forex registration will be here shortly. Many managers will actually benefit from registration as it will give potential investors some peace of mind that there is some oversight. We recommend that managers begin the registration process right now so that they will be a step ahead of other managers when the registration rules take effect. In any event, we will continue to keep you updated on any developments.
