I read in the paper at the weekend the piece about Angela Merkel threatening that Germany would leave the Euro.

Seems like it's days are numbered at least in it's present format.

Just some food for thought - profit % of 'professional' money managers.

NOT monthly 100% but 10-30% a year as you can see.

Professional fund managers are operating with different rules and circumstances to your bedroom forex trader.

I'm sure some of them are privately making vast sums though.

Yeah, I reckon a realistic gain would be somewhere between the monthly 100% of the bedroom gambler and the yearly 10% of the fund manager. A monthly 10%? Sounds good. I keep on dreaming, it's free 😁

Funny guys at forexlive - if you guess how much the ECB will spend on crappy eurozone bonds this week, you can win a t-shirt 😁😁😁

One of 'the fathers of euro' is dead. I'll close all my EUR longs. 😞

Situation not getting much better in Japan. One of the major global fin centres (that would be Tokyo) is practically out of the game with the BoJ injecting money comparable to the GDP of entire Africa. Situation is fragile - better stay away - unless you are in the know.

I'm wondering what keeps the European Union together ... it's not the common history, it's not a common language, maybe it's the charismatic president? I never heard about him .. 😁



It's funny that Eurozone countries Estonia with $15k GDP and Slovakia with $22k are supposed to be borrowing money to bailout Greece with $27k GDP per head. Funny indeed.

Indeed that is quite peculiar - who is going to bailout them? 😄
They are knowingly going into debt - I'm not sure what's the point of moving money around in such a situation.
