It appears that the political leaders in the U.S. have settled on a $700 billion bailout package. This should translate into a short term strengthening of the Dollar. However, how rapidly this will happen is unknown. We also do not yet know how Non-Farm payroll this Friday will affect volatility in the market. The Forex market continues to react violently to the historic changes in U.S. economic policy and world economic policy. Everyday through the last month and a half has seemed to bring with it a new surprise that has the effect of sending certain currencies trending strong in one direction.
We decided to trade today but with an added degree of caution. As you know, we continue to trade live $100,000 of our partners funds but all other client funds are waiting on the sideline. We continue to wait until the markets calm down sufficiently to get back to 100% live.

Risk Warning! Trading foreign exchange includes the use of margin and carries with it a high Initial level of risk which may not be suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose nor should you ever invest borrowed funds. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from independent financial, tax and legal advisors if you have any doubts.
CTFC Rule 4.41 - Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under- or over- compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
U.S. Government Required Disclosure: Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Forex, Initial Futures and options trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk. You must be aware of the risks and be willing to accept them in order to participate in the foreign currency markets. Don't trade with money you cant afford to lose.
