MORE BAILOUTS

Well, its the same old story in this humble writer's opinion for the Eurozone.  Bailout.  Everybody gets nervous for a week or so, EUR currency pairs and stocks fall like crazy, then they come up with the money to help these wrecked countries.  Once its approved, the EUR will soar for a day or two, and then hover around til the next one.....  Good Grief!

I WANT TO PRINT THIS ENTIRE ARTICLE! IT SEEMS PEOPLE ARE FINALLY FED UP WITH THE NFA'S BULLYING

THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT HOW TRADERS ARE STANDING UP TO THE NFA AND THEY ARE CORRUPT, ETC.  PLEASE READ IT!




I love this quote about Lauren Brinati from the NFA written from An Barnhardt's link below:


according to ann Barnhardt's blog below



"I don't actually understand any of this stuff. I just sign whatever comes across my desk."
Lauren Brinati, June 2010

Lauren Brinati said that to my  (Barnhardt's) attorney in June of 2010.


LAUREN BRINATI & NFA'S GROSS FOREX NEGLIGENCE
POSTED BY ANN BARNHARDT - JULY 13, AD 2012 10:25 AM MST
Oh, the chickens are coming home to roost now. I have been willing to speak out against the NFA and their criminality because I am totally out of the business, and the NFA can't threaten me in any way any longer. Not so before I shut my firm down, and for anyone else involved in the futures industry. The NFA is the gatekeeper to the entire industry. Anyone who wants to work in the futures or options industry MUST be licensed by the NFA, and the NFA can, at any time, pull a person's license or otherwise harass NFA members into insolvency with ZERO recourse or redress - and they do. When I call them a mafia, I'm not being flip. In fact, a reader sent me an email detailing how the NFA can and should be tried under CIVIL RICO statutes. They are indeed a criminal, racketeering body.It now seems that people have had enough, and are now willing to speak out against the NFA. Here is a letter sent to me last night by a FOREX trader (whom I have checked out - this person is definitely for real), outlining their experience with the NFA, and specifically Lauren Brinati, which confirms and echoes everything I have said.
This person is willing to speak to the press. Any reporters who want to pursue what you read here should email me contact info, which I will then forward to this FOREX professional.

Hi Ann,
After reading your post on the Lauren Brinati antics, I just feel compelled to tell you my personal experience with her, the NFA, and the CFTC. It is a long story, but I will try to keep it short unless you request the full feature-length saga, but trust me, I have all of the emails to verify every word of my story.
I have been a forex trader since the year 2000 and at the time of the Farm Bill which included the mandate for Retail Forex to become regulated by the CFTC (and thus the NFA) I was a Referring Broker for FXCM (a Forex Brokerage).
Problem #1: The congressional mandate for retail forex to be regulated had NO BUSINESS being stuck on the back end of the Farm Bill, it was just a way to get it passed when NO member of Congress understood what they were doing or what they were asking for as "regulation" as NONE of them understood anything about the industry (it was just a pet peeve of one congressman who had a personal vendetta and score to settle due to a trading loss suffered by one of his friends.)
Problem #2: Anyone who knows anything at all about retail forex understands that it is far more similar to stock trading than futures trading, and it should have been put under the authority of the SEC to begin with - not the CFTC, but since the idiots in congress thought that "forex futures contracts" were the sum total of everything forex, and since the CFTC already regulated forex futures (a commodity) this is what we got.
Anyway, the CFTC and NFA were really pissed off when they were told that they would have to regulate retail forex - it was not a job they wanted. Their first responsibility was to "study" the industry so that they could then develop regulations for it. I contacted both the CFTC and NFA multiple times during the first days, and weeks (and months) after the Farm Bill mandate to offer my services, expertise, and experiences during their exploratory period as I knew (probably) more about the retail forex industry (and the problems that plagued it) than almost anyone. They never wanted to hear anything I had to say.
After they published the "results" of their study, I just could not believe what I was reading. It was the most ridiculous document I have ever seen - filled with "facts" that were simply wrong, logic sequences that were illogical and absurd, and conclusions that sounded like something prepared by a 2nd grader. And most shocking was the list of "industry experts" they had used to gather their information from. It was none-other-than 17 of the most flagrantly abusive forex brokers! Amazing.... They had never even tried to gather information from actual traders (who were the people they new regulations were supposed to protect!) To make the story short - what they had done was essentially try to fit retail forex into the box they already had for forex futures instead of trying to create rules and regulations that would make sense for retail forex, and then incorporate all of the brokers' abusive tactics into regulations (thus now ASSURING that the brokers would have the advantage over the traders!!)
After reading their report, and the direction they were going to take the new rules and regulations, I again contacted both the CFTC and NFA with a long email explaining each point in detail on things they were wrong about, what the correct path should be to protect traders and make for a better trading environment, etc. Again - they didn't want to hear it. In one telephone call with the lovely Lauren Brinati, I introduced myself (again) to her and ask for the opportunity to explain a "traders perspective" on some of the issues, when she literally started SCREAMING at me, saying, "Who do you think you are? Why do you think you know more than the NFA?" and on and on - it was CRAZY TALK and totally bizarre.
When they had the "public comment period" before the new rules and regulations were finalized - there were over 9,000 public comments posted. I read EVERY SINGLE ONE. Of the 9,000+ comments there were maybe 25 that were supportive of the new rules and the rest were not. And yet, they still passed the rules EXACTLY as originally written... They HAVE THEIR OWN AGENDA and pay no attention to the people they are supposed to be serving. What a joke!
I have NO DOUBT that the NFA is corrupt and the CFTC - if not a part of the corruption is DERELICT in their duty by letting the NFA run their phoney audits and assults against legitimate IBs, CTAs and CPOs.
I have NO DOUBT that the NFA is in partnership with the large forex brokers to run all the smaller companies out of business. It is so obvious that it isn't even funny. It PROTECTS the forex brokers that CHEAT and created trading rules that made it MORE difficult for traders to manage their accounts and make profits, and the CFTC pulled the grand daddy of all when it came time for the retail forex accounts to be moved back to the United States - by changing their "interpretation" of their own rules AFTER 5 PM on the day of the deadline (so that traders had NO WAY of protecting their accounts). This shenanigan cost me over $250,000 in a margin call.
And - you are right about Miss Lauren - SHE DOESN'T KNOW SQUAT ABOUT ANYTHING regarding trading forex, or futures, or commodities. She, like ALL of her associates in the NFA should be in prison for FRAUD for how they are running that organization.
I would be happy to join in a legal action against them. Please let me know what develops with that.
Thanks,
M

PFG- A non event? Not quite!




Well, I decided to check Fx Street this morning to see what kind of news was written about PFG, and maybe perhaps the LIBOR scandal as well.  Two gigantic news events for FX , but it looked like it was business as usual over ther.... No news on this?  After owning a brokerage that was the victim, in my opinion of a "witch hunt" by the National Futures Association and the CFTC as well, I know how exacting and exhausting both of these organizations can be a times.  Yes, I know its their job, but they pick on the small guys.  Then, a firm like PFG comes along, their President sits on the board of the National Futures Association.  Maybe THATS's why the mail directed to the bank was getting delivered to his own personal PO box?  Something is rotten in Denmark here...

I could go on and on about the regulatory bodies here in the United States, and how they pick on the small guys, but how could they miss this?

Anyway, here's a good article from Seeking Alpha.


Let's face it the NFA dropped the ball, and IGNORED WARNING SIGNS!

EUR/USD

From FX Street....

FXstreet.com (Córdoba) - As most crosses in the FX market, the EUR/USD remains locked inside a slim range amid lack of economic events and news from the Eurogroup meeting.

EUR/USD managed to recover ground after hitting its lowest level since July 2010 at 1.2255 during the Asian session, to settle barely above the 1.2300 mark during the American afternoon after being rejected from a high of 1.2324. At time of writing, the cross is quoting at the 1.2310 region, recording a 0.4% gain on Monday.

From a technical view, Fan Yang, analyst at FXTimes notes that a small flag pattern appears to be developing in 1-hour chart amid low volatility. "We should look at the previous consolidation support at 1.2360 as a possible resistance factor. A break above 1.24 however makes the bearish outlook a bit unclear, especially if the RSI also breaches 60".

"If price does stay below 1.2360 (and of course 1.24), and the RSI does stay below 60, we would have a 'negative reversal'", says the analyst. "That is when the RSI high is higher (it already is), but the price high is lower. This suggests we have momentum for at least one more swing lower
