Best place in the world to trade?

[Pat494]

GMT+7 is definitely good. GMT +6 to +9 are probably the best

That means the US markets open at about 2 am local time ?

A bit early or late for me.

eh ?
New York opens at 8:30pm Thai time, or 9:30pm depending on time of year.
so plenty of time to get a trade on and hit the go-gos

I have a friend that swears by Gran Caymen with the only downside being christmas dinner " rice and beans no roast potatoes"

Although for me Cape Town area South Africa would be the choice you can get beach front for £250k good time zone, weather and good flight connections

That's good to know about the beach front property in Cape Town, too bad it's so far away from the US. I would like to travel their sometime. The Grand Caymens, I have been, and both islands are very nice.

Anybody trading in dubai? What the tax position out there? When I build my roll higher I am looking to get a 2nd home out of rainy, miserable overpriced UK. My requirements are:

#1 safe and secure for my wife and kids. I have been to so many amazing places in SE asia but seriously most would not be an option as I do not want to tool up and constantly worry that someone will try and stick me for my paper.

#2 timezone london 7am to midday session must be at a reasonable time of day.

#3 very low taxation

#4 weather - at least 75% sunny and 20 to 30deg all year round

#5 attitude to foreigners - somewhere which encourages foreigners

Not much to ask for lol. For me the UK is great for my family in terms of education, healthcare but the weather really sucks, I am not sure I can do another winter. Plus most brits are a bit miserable its in our genes.

Any suggestions?

I am thinking Dubai. Maybe cyprus, dont know much about it. I get a good vibe about the quiet parts of Ibiza and Mallorca but it can still be quite cold there during winter.

 

[mike.]

Any suggestions?

Tenerife,

Lots of brits have moved there, stable climate, nice all year round. Think it would be my first choice if i could make a stable income from trading, Though, like you mentioned, Dubai would be my second choice, Anywhere but here. ( lake district )

Forget the hot foreign spots imho
Too many bugs and things that bite
The heat can be unbearable every day .
The smell and dirt
Foreign food
Foreign language
Corruption
Anti-foreign elements wanting handouts
Crappy politicians-wanting handouts

No mate be brave step out into the rain occasionally. Really invigorating.

Nowhere more comfortable than my armchair with the stuffing coming out at the corners.
