No matter what plan is put into place, it will still be sluggish for the consumer, going forward. In the online stock trading and trading options online world, nobody is sure of what results to expect near terrn.

The plan the various governments and central banks have constructed may work. It’s so uncharted that nobody, not even the seasoned stock broker, can possibly know for sure if full confidence will be restored.

No matter what happens, I think we can expect to see new regulations and restrictions on market activity, including, maybe, online stock trading.

With so much of the banking sector being, in effect, nationalized, the question will become how much, if any, in they way of tremendous profits can we expect?

New regulations and rules will lead to slower growth in the sector. And will those smaller banks that don’t have the Federal Government’s stamp of approval be good investments?

Insurance is also another area to take a good look at. Will all the rules be changed de facto by the government owning AIG? Will there be a “good for the goose” thing happening?

Once Congress gets its fingers into these big pies anything can happen.

For the ordinary investor sitting at home, the only advice that can be given is to not panic, take profits when sensible, and to invest smartly — meaning buying low and selling high and not following the crowds too far or too high.

Insurance and banking, to me, are questionable sectors now. I’m sure that those who know more about both will be able to see the forest through the trees and take some decisions that make sense, or find great buying opportunities.
For me, when the playing field is not level by government involvement, then it’s not best to put too much money into it. In fact, maybe only “mad money” should go into it. If I have any left, that is.

On the other hand, money may pour into those sectors with the knowledge that the government is the ultimate banker. Returns might be lower, but there will be returns.

I’ll watch the market over the next couple of days. I’ve set the stocks to track, so we shall see.

The world seems to be adapting a new standard in investing and finance. It’s so uncharted in scope.

Maybe in the next week or so, the dust will settle and we ordinary Joes out here will be able to determine a direction. We are all hoping that nail biting time is over.

There are three rules of Forex Trading can make or break a Forex trader. They are pretty simple to grasp and to follow. We are going to cover how to choose a Forex System, how to do the proper investing research before you commit, and lastly, the value of being patient. Ready? Let’s talk about some easy solutions to your Forex problems!

Forex Rule # 1: Pick the best Forex system

Let’s face it – the days of manual trading are over. Everyone – from global banks and hedge funds to Joe Trader in his basement are using some sort of robotic trading system. There are so many automated Forex systems out there for you to choose from, but I would personally recommend Forex Killer Robot for the beginner trader, since it will only advise you as to when and how to trade (Buy or Sell) but will not actually enter the trades for you.

Our next choice would be Forex Tracer System. Unlike Forex-Killer, ForexTracer Robot is a completely automated system, and even though it may seem easier and hence more suitable for a beginner – a system which is completely automated may be seen as more intimidating by beginner traders. Also, the ForexTracer Robot works with the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) platform and hence the trader first needs to install and setup MT4 and then install the ForexTracer Robot inside it. Not that it is hard to do, but it does add one more level of complexity.

Forex Rule # 2:Trend is your Friend

Whether you’ve picked ForexKiller or ForexTracer Robot there are some basic things you need to know before you start trading. You need to set some rules for yourself and to follow them. The one constant truth concerning the markets is that discipline increased profits.. One rule that all traders will learn sooner or later is “Trend Is Your Friend”. Always trade with the trend. If the robots suggest a trade against it – ignore it. Even though they excel in detecting certain market conditions, they’re only robots, they can’t see the big picture.

Forex Rule # 3: Money management

Success does not come instantly. Many will happily tell youotherwise, and at the same time, sell you a product you might not need. Use common sense when investing. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Pick either Forex Killer or ForexTracer Robot and practice with them to see how they work. When you’re ready – go make some money! Repeat the process over and over. Don’t let greed get the best of you. It is amazing how quickly your trading account will build up over time just by making a little bit every day!

I had to ask myself about the viability[ of the US automobile manufacturers. They are not looking good at all right now, but there could be some opportunity to find some real good deals for online trading or online options trading.

Who will survive is the question. Or, what parts of which of the Big Three US automakers will survive?

As any individual or online stock broker is aware, a smart pick will mean some decent returns. A bad pick will mean big losses.
Fortunately, with online stock trading, it is much easier than the last crisis to keep track of investments.

Right now, the government has just guaranteed 25 billion in low cost loans to the Big Three.

First consider the labor costs. The Big Three have labor expenditures that are much higher than their competitors. Right now, it looks that the higher union wages, plus medical benefits to those employed and retired look like a non-starter for considering further investment; however, this system cannot stay in place forever.

What the automakers may be hoping for is that there is eventually a government health care plan that will take the burden of paying for health care off the books of the manufacturers. This is no doubt a mid-term plan or way of thinking. Even if an administration is elected that favors this kind of single payer plan, it will take a while to get it set up. So, those who are looking out maybe five years can consider relief to the automakers in this regard at that time.

Labor costs are harder. Any ground gained by the unions are not likely to be given back without a fight. In fact, there are those who remember the plight of Eastern Airlines. The airline, in dire straits, asked for concessions from its un-ions so it could carry on. The unions didn’t acquiesce and Eastern Airlines went out of business.

So the US automakers are facing some difficult issues. They may not be a place to put any money or faith in for the short and mid-terms, even though the federal government seems to think otherwise.

The most important factor, probably, is the cars that the Big Three are making. Who wants them, and in how much quantity?

My attention came to their competition. If there are to be two or three automobile manu-facturers left globally, no doubt they will be owning all or parts of the US automakers.

At age 101, Harry Callahan probably never thought he would be called out of retirement by a group of people doing something like stock trading and trading options online. When Callahan started his career at the Chicago Board of Trade in 1927, there were only stock tickers – no such things as online brokers!

He met with our online stock trading group again this morning. He is getting to be a regular. He is typically late, as he has an early morning workout that he does at Cardinal Fitness.

Though he was born way before the first PC, Callahan has his own laptop, and he brought it with this morning. He has many online accounts, and has an active portfolio.

When he first started visiting he was more confident that there might be a short-lived panic and a recovery, but as the weeks have gone on, he has become less hopeful.

“The mistakes of seventy years ago are being repeated — some of them– and it can’t be good for the markets,” Callahan said today.

He watched the debates, too.

“I’m not believing any one of the presidential candidates has a clue about money and economics,” Callahan said. “This does not fare well for the markets going forward. Remember, after one of them is elected, there is a long lag time before they actually take office. Then, there is the time to get things up and running.”

His advice was to keep very few things long, and if you do, make sure you hedge, because in his experience the market will fall farther.

“Don’t worry about finding the bottom,” he said. “If a strong stock — and IBM or Apple or another market share leader with a good balance sheet– looks cheap enough, purchase it.”

Further, Callahan reminded us that no one ever went broke taking profits. If any of us were holding stock that was ages old we might want to sell a portion and take some of the remaining profits.

“Remember,” said Callahan, “it was not the stock market dive on Black Tuesday, 1929, that caused the Great Depression. It was the tariffs that were put in place, the increase in taxes, and, eventually, the drain on the economy that FDR’s alphabet soup of government programs that took a panic and made it a depression.”

Callahan had met Franklin Roosevelt.

“He was a good man,” said Callahan, “I met Roosevelt several times. But I would not call him an economically educated man. Neither is John McCain or Barrack Obama. Joe the Plumber — now there is a man who knows economics.”

Callahan then left. He was flying to New York with his girlfriend later in the evening, and he had to get packed.

Several of people I know are dropping money in the stock market these days and don’t know why they are losing. Well in the very short term it’s been difficult to make money with the markets the way they have been, but I hope people don’t let that get them down. The stock market is the thing that makes our world. I’ve been investing since I was 23 years old (over 25 years ago) and in these modern times it’s easier then ever to earn a profit in the markets.

Do I know some big secret? No, of course not. If there was a solution where you never lot money then everyone would be doing it. Can I tell you how to earn money more easily and consistently? Well there truly is a way. That’s what I’m going to speak about now. Something that can help every investor our, regardless of their skill level is stock trading software. I remember the old days when I had to sit down for hours and hours (as did other agents at my firm) and do computations every day. I hated it. Going through the stock market entirely was imposable for one person, heck, it was hard for hundreds of us. It was hard, boring work and I’m glad that it’s not something we have to do in today’s times.

Since the creation of stock investing software like worden telechart all you need to do is look up the stock you are interested in and you can find out basically any parameters you want. There is even software that does a full market scan daily and will tell you what stocks fall within the threshold you set. This saves organizations literally hundreds of thousands of hours yearly. I can only imagine the time I would have saved up over my lifetime with a pencil and piece of paper on my desk figuring out how much price to earnings ratios had changed.

When I first started online trading, my preferred things to buy and sell were transportation companies. Many sectors of the market had been deregulated for about a decade, and the real win-ners and losers were starting to be decided.

At that time I was working in the transportation industry, and was keeping on top of all the changes, because I had to for work. This, I felt, gave me an edge on any stock broker, online stock trading or options trading.

I divided the sectors.

There was surface transportation, air transportation and sea transport.

All three had their challenges at the time, especially surface. There were a number of the old line surface hauling companies that were suffering. They were facing stiff pricing competition from upstarts, which didn’t have the same costly overhead to deal with. These newcomers, in-itially, were eating the established trucking companys’ lunch. In fact, they were eating the breakfast, lunch and the dinner.

Ultimately, the industry consolidated, and put pressure on the upstarts and through pricing and good infrastructure, managed to eliminate many serious challenges. Once the industry consolidated, it made choosing winners and losers much easier.

Even those companies are cyclical; they still represented decent buys, especially at the low point of the cycles. The survi-vors would and could weather the storm and will be around even during the bad times.

Rail transport, as a sub sector of transportation, had already undergone major consoli-dations, so it was just a matter of looking very closely at the ba-sics, such as Price/Earnings ratio and Cash Flow Analysis. Once the technology bubble dust settled and the housing bubble commenced, it was easy to see that rail transport would be a winner, as supplies for the building had to be moved, and rail is still one of the most economical ways to do it.

Air transportation was trickier to pick winners and losers, especially after September 11.

I made one bad choice, where the carrier went bust, and I lost all on it. The second choice was much better, as it was a budget carrier and had been long established. Plus, the carrier hedged its fuel options and negated the rising cost of jet fuel as a factor in over all costs.

Sea or Ocean transport is very much a global industry. There are a number of very large players and market leaders, and once again it was a matter of just examining the fundamentals and looking at where the areas were for growth.
