Short Euro since Monday holding well. Lets see where it closes on Friday. Euro has dropped a lot since December, starting to get attractive to go long. 1.3800 would be nice to Long~

You just need people to forget the Greece issue and refocus back to USA. But I am not talking about 1.3800 they will be stopping there. One just need this trend to run dry then the next one run opposite direction, it all depends on the fundamental events that noone can predict when it is going to happen.

0) A Trading Plan (below is the trading plan, oh also determind which type of trader are you, day trader? position holder?) 1) Trading Psychology & Mindset & Emotions (fear, can kill, like the deer who froze on oncoming car, taking profit early-cutting loss late) (greed, when account is showing good profit, you start to think you are a trading God) (Trauma, when you lose half of your original account, you will become reckless like Rambo-all or nothing) 2) Risk Management (volume adjustment according to margin size, why still trade using $0.01 when its time to use $10) 3) Technical Analysis (entry & exit, like the sea, you have the easy and light current at the top and the stronger current underneath the sea, you need to know whats the prevailing trend, short, medium, long term) 4) Fundamental Analysis (volume adjustment, time to play big, good new/bad news is good news to trader)

We won't close the account but the leverage 1:10 will make our account easily margin call. So if CFTC really implement this rule, then must get ready to transfer our account to other country, but still not sure when they'll launch.

In the end, only the rich can earn more. Leverage isnt really an issue. I can trade with 1:700 leverage if I want, it is the number of pips it takes to get a person margin call matters and it also depends on how much the person is risking and where he place his SL.

But if we want to earn more, with leverage 1:700 compare to 1:10, definitely we got the space to open more or larger lot size and the chances to earn more also bigger, if we use 1:10, the margin already used much on our capital, then we can't really open so many lot size in order to earn more. Beside, you said trade with 1:700, are you using IG Markets broker? As i know only this broker provide 1:700 leverage.

THat is why if and when they implement this rule, it is just a simple procedure to move the accounts from the US branch to their other branches outside of US.

precisely, although using online banking to do TT will be subjected to your bank maximum allowed sum per day. if transferring large sum of money you'll need to do it over the counter.
