U.S. and European stocks fell, extending losses from the first weekly decline for global equities in more than a month, as the World Bank said the recession will be deeper than previously forecast. Treasuries rose, while a drop in commodities sent oil below $68 a barrel.

Equities and commodities retreated after the World Bank forecast today the global economy will contract 2.9 percent this year. That compares with a prior estimate of a 1.7 percent decline. Growth is expected to return next year with a 2 percent expansion, lower than the 2.3 percent prediction about three months ago.

Executives at U.S. companies are taking advantage of the biggest stock-market rally in 71 years to sell their shares at the fastest pace since credit markets started to seize up two years ago. This is a clue that the stock market is already expensive. Sales by CEOs, directors and senior officers have accelerated to the highest level since June 2007, two months before credit markets froze, as the S&P 500 rebounded from its 12-year low in March. The increase is making investors more skittish because executives presumably have the best information about their companies’ prospects.

Do you need travel insurance?

By admin on February 14th, 2009

Travel insurance is insurance that is intended to cover medical expenses, financial (such as money invested in nonrefundable pre-payments), and other losses incurred while traveling. At first travel insurance is considered negative. Travel agents were afraid to bring up the travel insurance for fear of losing the overall deal. But today, travel insurance has become an essential item for smart travelers.

According to the U.S. Travel Insurance Association, about 30 percent of Americans purchase travel insurance, an increase from 10 percent before 9/11. Typically travel insurance for the duration of a journey costs approximately 3-7% of the cost of the trip.


travel insurance

Travel insurance usually covers the following risks:

  • Medical expenses.

  • Funeral expenses.
  • Accidental death, injury or disablement benefit.
  • Cancellation of trip including due to your illness.
  • Delayed departure.
  • Loss, or damage to personal possessions and money (including travel documents).
  • Delayed baggage (and emergency replacement of essential items).

Travel insurance can help you when bad things happen. Although travel insurance is important, not every body need it. So who need it and when do you need it?

  • If the travel is long way off, then you will need travel insurance, because there is high possibility of things went wrong if time span is big.
  • If the trip is expensive, you can consider buying a travel insurance. If something went wrong you won’t lose your big money.

Where to buy?

Travel insurance can be arranged at the time of booking of a trip or purchased from travel insurance companies, travel agents or tour operators.

Money management guide

By admin on February 1st, 2009

Money management is very important if you are a trader, whether you are stock trader or forex trader. By using money management you can stay alive longer in the game.


  • From the image above you can see the result of two trader. The first trader risk 5% of his money each trade. The second trader risk 10% of his money each trade. You can see that after 10 loss trade, first trader will have more money left. You can see the importance of money management from the illustration if you have bad luck and loss ten trades in a row. Lesson learned: Always risk a small percentage of your money, below 5%. A good trader will know that you will not always win, so you must risk a small percentage of their total money so that they can survive those losing streaks.
  • Before enter a trade you must calculate the risk / reward ratio. When chances to win a trade is smaller than potential losses, don’t trade! You should only trade if the risk ratio is 1:3. For example if broker fee or spread is $3, and you only want to lose $3 for a total of $6 ($3 + $3) loss, then you will only close position when it loss $3 and win 3 * $6 = $18.
  • You should set protective stops for your trade. Remember the 1:3 risk ratio? You can set the level you want to cut loss from that number.

Forex trading strategy

By admin on November 27th, 2008

Here are some forex trading strategy (you can also use it for option) that can save your life:

  • Set a Stop Loss: Before entering any trade, decide beforehand the amount you are willing to lose and stick to it, set a stop loss on the trade before you enter. I usually set maximum loss of 10%.
  • Do not be emotional about a trade, you will lose some and win some – just know it.
  • Stick to your game plan, move your stop loss as the market moves in your favor and let your profits run.
  • Don’t be influenced: You have your own game plan stick to it
  • Trading is a game of probabilities, and over the long run as long as you stick and implement sound strategies and stay consistent.
  • Success is much more likely to come. To be a successful trader you should never take a position that puts substantial capital in jeopardy. In actuality you will rarely find successful traders who risk more than 10% of their account in any trade. You might want to start small and increase your trade sizes as your confidence grows.
  • Know your risk vs. reward ratio: The minimum ratio you should be using is 2:1, so if you are successful on 50% of your trades you are doing well. For instance, if you are long GBP/USD and you want to earn 30 pips you should not risk more than 15 pips. You should never risk 30 pips in order to make 10 pips.
  • Have adequate capital: You should never trade with money that you cannot afford to lose.
  • Trending or Neutral: Learn to analyze the market; is it a trending market or a neutral market? In a trending market then follow the trend. in a neutral market buy on lows and sell on highs as long as you use stop-losses you are controlling your risk.
  • Don’t fight the trend
  • Averaging – don’t do it: One of the most common mistakes traders make is the continuing adding of a losing position. Averaging will be the death of short-term trades.
  • Know why you are in the trade: Keep a trading log, and write down why you entered a trade.
