Regular Guest on Money Talks, and one of  Michael Campbell’s favorites Jack Crooks of Black Swan Capital is offering Exclusively for readers and listeners of MoneyTalks a very SPECIAL OFFER. When looking at investments or the Economy – “Its all about the price of currencies” – Michael Campbell

In Today’s Currency Currents….

FX Trading – “[We Won’t Be] Waiting on the World to Change.”

 

Quotable 
“The stimulus that we have still got to give the world economy is greater than the stimulus we have already had. What we want to do is safeguard a recovery from a recession we feared would develop into a depression.” – Gordon Brown

FX Trading – “[We Won’t Be] Waiting on the World to Change.”

Some of you may not know this … but this week is Climate Week. The goal is to spread the word about climate change and the importance of enacting climate change legislation that addresses key problems associated with man-made global warming.

I will not be participating in Climate Week.

More of you may know that this week Pittsburgh, PA plays host to the G-20. The goal is to spread the word about economic status quo and the importance of enacting stimulus policy that addresses the major deficiencies associated with man-made financial crisis.

I’m not buying the G-20 summit.

Ideally, the market process would handle both the above issues on its own. But leaders don’t want to leave it to the free market; the free market is the problem, they’ll tell you.

So in an effort to look out for our best interest, the top-most officials on each matter will see to it that the market does no more damage and that legislation, regulation and policy take over the role of destroying saving the world.

But it doesn’t matter what I think. If what I thought actually mattered, then I’d be independently wealthy. Instead, it is what the market thinks that matters. And right now the market thinks (regarding the G-20 initiatives anyway) that the world has been rescued.

And if Gordon Brown’s quotable from above means anything, then the global economy should have no trouble getting back on its feet and global markets should run into few obstacles as the road to prosperity is paved for them.

So it shouldn’t come as a surprise when the US dollar can’t string together more than two days of corrective rally. Despite what the charting mechanisms may forecast, risk appetite in this market is running on high and the US dollar is hated.

This morning has already been a monster day for currencies. Using the US Dollar Index as the broad indicator, traders have wiped away the last two days of dollar advances and the index is testing last week’s low, which happens to be the lowest level for the US dollar index since this time last year.

To demonstrate my point about market sentiment here, the Asian Development Bank has made waves with their recent comments about growth in Asia. Markets love the fact that growth estimates have been revised upwards. They also love the fact that China has imported a whole bunch of crude – the second-highest monthly increase on record in August.

Logically, this could be taken as a sign that China is revving up the engines and is ready to pull out of pit road.

The market, though, found a way to avoid the comments from the ADB regarding China’s binge on stimulus and record lending. They particularly noted the decision to push back or ignore necessary rebalancing efforts that would help mitigate the dependence on investment and exports and spark some much needed growth in domestic consumption.

But why should that matter? Everyone’s having a good time now; nobody likes a party- pooper.

Pushing back the imbalances for another day, huh? The ADB seems to think this is what China’s doing. I’m not going to argue with them … as you probably already know.

But what about the G-20? Are they ignoring imbalances, are they pushing back the need
for rebalancing? If so, can they succeed in forcing growth on a global economy that’s not ready for it?

Call me old school, but the free market has been known to correct imbalances of yesteryear. No? Come to think of it, hasn’t the market already taken steps toward correcting such imbalances this time around?

You lock in forever an additional savings of over 50% each and every month after that for as long as you remain a member.

Here’s some explanation on the different newsletters you’ll receive …

Our Emerging Market newsletter is geared towards specific emerging market commentary and takes time to evaluate individual countries and themes in depth. We will also recommend a balanced portfolio of currencies to hold as an emerging currency speculator.

In our Currency Options newsletter we are technical-minded, active, and a bit medium-term oriented … occasionally diverging from our longer-term fundamental market views. In addition to that, we incorporate a strict stop-loss guideline in our recommendations, usually around a 50-60% loss threshold, as well as a level at which to take partial profits. We believe this helps reduce the downside and allows for you to be more proactive in grabbing gains when you have them.

In the Forex & Currency Futures newsletter we are active and base most of our trade analysis on short-term technical setups — shooting to grab small open gains when we have them and keeping a skin in the game if we are fortunate to have latched on to a trend. That means you will consistently see recommendations to trade with at least two lots at a time. But remember: the size you trade and amount of leverage must make sense for your own account size and circumstances.

Within the monthly newsletter — Currency Investor — will reside the longer-term trend analysis work and thematic fundamental views incorporating a detailed look at weekly and monthly inter-market relationships between currencies, stocks, bonds and commodities.

Everything you read about above plus access to archives, webinar notifications, audio updates, special reports and more.

We work hard to consistently deliver, what we consider, the best currency trading newsletters available on the market today. We hope you’ll agree.

I urge you, if you were thinking about trading currencies, whether through options, ETFs, futures or Spot FX then don’t wait.

If you want an honest approach and a realistic look at currencies, you’ll have come to the right place.

If for any reason whatsoever you try us out and are unsatisfied with Black Swan’s currency newsletters within the first 30-days of your Membership, we’ll issue a full refund and our thanks for giving us a try.

Take advantage of this 30-day Risk Free offer!

So, if you’re ready to give us a try, Click Here to Sign Up

we’re looking forward to having you onboard with us!

P.S. As a BONUS, subscribe today and receive this 20-page Special Report:

Preparing for a Breakup in the European Monetary System

Most people are worried about the US dollar … and for good reason. These same people tend to see the euro as a real competitor vying for world reserve currency status. Many have been conditioned that way by the financial press. But we believe the risk of breakup in the European Monetary System is building rapidly. We examine the structure of this “artificial fiat currency” and why another downturn in the global economy could mean lights out for the euro. Be prepared.

Even if you decide to cancel, keep the report – it’s yours as a ‘thank you’ for giving us a try!

Even in tough times, which we recognize is on everyone’s mind these days, that’s a very reasonable price for the versatility and money-making potential packed into these newsletters. Of course, at a little over $3 per day you could instead put that money towards you’re morning cup of coffee on the way to work, I guess.

If you want to learn how to implement a solid approach to currency investing … or even if you’re just looking for well-researched trading and investing ideas …

I urge you to give us a try.

Sincerely,

David Newman
