Putin Brings Russia
Into the Money…
Simply put: Vladimir Putin is finally making his move, and he isn’t being shy about it either.
And why should he?
Under Putin’s watch, Russia has once again become a hugely prosperous world economic superpower.
In fact, since Putin has become president, scores of Russian companies have been seeing massive profits.
Just take a look at what these Russian stocks have done while Putin has been in office…
Norilsk Nickel up 646%… Novolipetsk Steel up 268%…
Lukoil Oil Co. up 578%… Uralkali up 1,350%…
Severstal Steel up 794%… Surgutneftegas up 500%…
Raspadskaya up 288%… Evraz Group up 369%…
Sibir Energy up 904%… Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel up 140%…
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Spend a few minutes checking out the Russian indexes, and you’ll find more big gainers then you can even count.
In fact, the entire indexes themselves have been thriving.
The Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange is up 162% in the past three years. The Russian Trading System Stock Exchange has shot up 86% through 2006.
The money just keeps on flowing.
Putin is ruling from atop a sky-high mountain of cash. Russia’s GDP is surging at 8% growth a year. They’ve paid off a foreign debt that at its height was close to $200 billion. And by 2020, they’ll be one of the five largest economies in the world.
And it’s almost entirely thanks to their overflowing natural resources.
Believe it or not, Russia recently jumped past Saudi Arabia as the world’s leading supplier of petroleum. And that’s in addition to having the world’s largest natural gas reserves under its control!
You’ve got no idea how dangerous this makes them!

Forex Trading - Technical Indicators
Many of the common charts encountered in the toolkit of Forex traders are composed of a graphed series of technical indicators. So, in order to understand those charts, the student of Forex investing will do well to study those indicators.
Fortunately, it isn”t necessary to know exactly how to calculate them in order to use them. Software will do that for you. But, it”s helpful to have some idea of how they are arrived at, and what they mean, in order to evaluate their worth as trading tools.
Keep in mind, however, that none of the indicators - taken alone - tell the whole story. Nor do all of them together make one certain. Indicators are just that, they indicate. They do not predict with certainty. No mathematical tool used in Forex trading will do that. Beware of hyped promises.

Kiplinger’s

“As relations continue to sour, Putin may well retaliate against U.S. and European Union companies doing business in Russia.”
– Kiplinger’s
“He’s the new czar of Russia and he’s dangerous in the sense that he doesn’t care about civil liberties, he doesn’t care about free speech.”

The Internet has made it easier than ever for the average person to get involved in speculative forms of day trading, like Forex trading.
In the past, Forex trades had to be carried out by calling up your broker’s ‘dealing desk’. Today, though, carrying out a trade is as simply as pointing and clicking from within your online trading account.
This is indeed a luxury but, as you may have guessed, there is both an upside and a downside to the technological ease of online trading.
One of the biggest problems is a phenomenon known as ’scalping’. Scalpers are traders who rely on the speed of electronic trading (and the ability to bypass the ‘dealing desk’) to ’scalp’ Pips.
In other words, they trade currencies on the smallest fluctuations in exchange rate. A scalper might trade a pair when it moves from 1.3435 to 1.3436, for example.
There’s technically nothing wrong with doing so, except that scalpers executes these types of trades hundreds of times daily. They may exit a trade before the broker even has time to deal with it, and this results in a loss…for the broker, that is.
Scalping is a risky strategy that is all to easy to perform online. So, the first thing you need to be sure of before you start trading is that you know what you’re doing. Scalping isn’t something you want to do as a beginner, regardless of whether you’re doing it intentionally or through sheer inexperience.
The second thing you’ll want to do is develop a long-term investment strategy. Forex is fun to ‘play’ with, and online accounts make it easy to jump in the game just to try it out. It has almost become a fad.
However, what the sad statistics bear out is that over half of all new Forex traders lose their money within a year. The foreign exchange market is seeing a lot of hype right now, and too many people are signing on in the hopes of making a quick buck. Forex is simply not that easy, though, and it is certainly not a get rich quick scheme for the average person.
So, before you start trading, make sure you take the time to educate yourself. There’s plenty of free information online, as well as top-notch training courses provided by brokers and expert investors.
Putting the necessary time up front into developing a long-range strategy, and educating yourself on the marketplace, will go a long way to assuring your success.
