The law is flawed.

Dealings in gold and foreign currency.  4.  (1)  Except with the permission of the Controller, no person, other than an authorized dealer, shall, in Malaysia—  Act A1241.
(a)  buy or borrow any gold or foreign currency from; 
(b)  sell or lend any gold or foreign currency to; or 
©  do any act which involves, is in association with, or is preparatory to, buying or borrowing any gold or foreign currency from, or selling or lending any gold or foreign currency to, 
any person other than an authorized dealer.
This basically means that transaction can only take place from one authorized dealer to the other.

So, technically we are not allowed to buy gold even from Poh Kong.
LOL.

QUOTE(nshady @ May 9 2011, 05:30 PM)
Can someone clarify my problems?

According to here: http://forexbeginners.net/lot-sizes-and-risks

1  lot = 100,000 units of base currency (for example in trading GBP/USD)

so im buying 100,000 pounds (converted to usd is 150,000 USD with exchange rate 1.500)

so calculation for 1 pip = 0.0001 x 150,000 =15 USD per pips.

But why is it according to my MT4(lite forex) one pips is 10USD?
*
1 pip = 0.0001 = 10USD

yes, you are buying 100,000 GBP with USD currency ie. 150,000 USD

but what you see in GBP/USD denomination is actually already convert to USD

example;

1.5000 GBP/USD => in 1 lot -> 150,000USD = 100,000 GBP

let say the market move by 2 pips,

1.5002 GBP/USD => in 1 lot -> 150,020 USD = 1000,000 GBP

hope it help..

Cheers

Hi fx playboy, thanks for your info. So you mean for a double top, I sell at the first top or second top? Then when the price go down, i buy back.

According to babypips, With the double top, we would place our entry order below the neckline because we are anticipating a reversal of the uptrend.
Double top and breakdown. Why is it below neckline but not above neckline?

Thanks.
*
because the neckline act as support level as per fxplayboy and scarface explained...if the neckline breaks, it confirms the double top formation, if it didn't break then, the double top formation is not valid..

that's why the babypips advised to place order after the neckline breaks, to confirm the validity of the double top formation..

cheers

As above, i have drawn where to open entry(sell) and then buy back. Can u check if its correct. Can you tell me more why neckline is a support?
*
always open trade with reasons..you sell because you see a double top formation..what are your reasons for buying back?


the lowest point reached before it started back up is called support..hence where the neckline is drawn..

cheers

sorry i failed to understand. Can you see the picture above,  i have drawn place to sell and then buy back(close trade) is that correct?
Can you draw and show me what i need to know? thanks....yes i can see a support in between the first top and second top....whats with that? but if u look at the picture above, the place i buy back is not a support right.

thanks lots.
*
There are a lot of ways to trade...what i mean is you should have some indications/reasons on why you should buyback(closing the trade). let me give some example why you should close the trade

1. You already met your target
2. You are entering another support zone which price will bounce back from that area
3. Trendline broken, crosses of moving average, rsi below certain level bla bla bla..(seriously there are a lot of reasons to think of, just pick the valid one)

I'm not that experience in candle chart pattern formation trading style...not my trading type actually, very hard to detect the formation in reality..only experienced trader can 'see' the formation..and practically a double top formation does not show frequently on the chart..you will be lucky if it happens once in a week..i still cannot see a double top formation in G/U Daily TF since may 2010!! laugh.gif

support means that the price will likely bounce back when they reached at that area..

cheers
