How Forex Trading Can Get You Through the Subprime Crisis

How Forex Trading Can Get You Through the Subprime Crisis

The subprime mortgage crisis, the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression, has hit the heart of the economy of America and the world. Banks collapse one after the other, huge companies file for bankruptcy, and it seems like the economy is coming to an end as we know it. All these problems may lead to a recession, which is very bad for you. However, you can protect yourself from an upcoming recession and go through the subprime crisis smoothly. The answer is trading forex.

Trading forex, or currency trading, is not affected by any financial crisis. Of course, exchange rates move according to different news items, but this market will never be closed, unlike traditional businesses. There is always a trade to be made at the currency market, and the opportunities never end. Even during a recession.

Another benefit of the forex market is its ability to trade both ways, so traders can profit whether the exchange rate goes up or down. In regular businesses, when owners buy something and its price drops, they lose, because they must sell it for a low price. However, in the currency market, it does not matter which way the exchange rate moves or which currency is stronger. There is always a profit to be made.

Automation is a big part of trading currencies. With an upcoming recession, everyone wants to expand their income sources, not rely on a completely new source. This is where Forex Tracer comes in. This piece of software is able to make trades on its own, even while the trader is away from his computer. This way anyone can have a regular day job and also make some hundred dollars per day on the side.

A world recession is looming. People are already buying less, the real estate market is in a free fall, and the stock market has its worst month in decades. Although official indices still show there is a growth, everyone agrees that a recession cannot be avoided. For this reason you need to be prepared. You should find a way to get through this crisis. The solution is currency trading with Forex Funnel.

Profiting ability is another reason the forex market is recession proof. Unlike a regular job, or the real estate market, you can profit when the value of something goes down.

Consumer Diffidence

Yesterday was an ordinary day without much events. Even the Dow and S&P indices felt this big nothing and moved about 0% (yes, zero) and 0.01%, respectively.

Today the consumer confidence report is due today, and it will a good gauge for economic activity. Without confidence, there are less consumers and the future doesn't look bright, as consumers make 2/3 of the US GDP.

Tomorrow is the big day with the announcement of the new interest rate. Bernanke will have to choose between restraining inflation and raising rates and avoiding a recession and lowering (or keeping) rates. Tomorrow at 2:15pm EDT, don't miss.

The dollar got stronger yesterday, rising against most major currencies. Like always, Forex Funnel managed to extract $100 out of the market. Let's see what happens tomorrow, after the interest rate announcement.

Good luck with your trades,

The Week Ahead: Last Week of June

June is about to end, but economic data is just getting more and more interesting. First, tomorrow is the consumer confidence and new home sales, which will show whether the economy is going for a recession or there is still some growth.

Wednesday is the big day. Ben Bernanke will announce the Fed interest rate, and will affect many prices: oil, stocks, the dollar, and others. Watch out for those, stay out of the market if you cannot handle high volatility.

Thursday will bring the final first quarter GDP, which is the ultimate gauge for recession. On Friday we will see another measure of inflation, and if it's high, expect high volatility as well.

Have a great week,

Bernanke, Recession, and Inflation

Yesterday Bernanke gave a speech about the United States economy. In his speech, he mentioned several very important pieces of information for forex traders, including information about a recession and the inflation.

First, Bernanke talked about the potential recession. He said he knows that the recent job report and oil prices are very unwelcome, but the fear of recession should not be so big. The economy is starting to do better. This gave the dollar a little boost, but not as his inflation speech.

After mentioning the recession, Bernanke started talking about inflation. He said that if consumers and business owners expect inflation, they will behave in such a way that accelerates inflation, so it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Then he warned that if inflation does stay at safe levels, the Fed may have to raise interest rates. This led the dollar to jump, the EUR/USD rate fell, and Forex Tracer managed to get a nice boost out of it.

Today's only interesting report in the US is the trade balance, something Bush managed to ruin. Let's see how bad it will be this time.

Good luck with your trades,

Jobs, Oil, and the Dollar

After thinking for a while, I decided to let go of the forex terms right now and focus more on current events and market commentary. On days with not many events, like Sundays, I will continue to explain interesting and important forex terms.

Yesterday could be called Friday the 13, but it came a week earlier. The job report turned out to be extremely negative: 49,000 jobs were taken out of the market. The worse part is the unemployment figure which jumped to 5.5% from 5%, the biggest rise in 22 years. This figure means only one thing: the US is headed or already in a recession.

As a result, the US dollar and Wall Street took a dive yesterday. The EUR/USD pair, which nearly hit a bottom of 1.5360, simply soared to a rate of 1.5769 to end the week. A forex trading system I am testing right now, Forex Tracer, took advantage of this huge leap and created nearly $1000 in about 5:30 hours from an account of $3000.

Wall Street wasn't too impressed with the employment figures as well and sent the Dow Jones index to lose over 400 points near the end. At the close, the Dow went down "only" 394.64 points, a 3.13% decrease. The S&P 500 sank 3.09%.

The bad employment report also signals that a rate cut is likely. This signal sent the oil to one of its highest one day rises: over 7% in one day. A barrel of oil is currently priced at $138.39.

Let's see what Monday brings.
