    Jack Crooks

    Yeap.. There is no holy grail... You lose what you lose, and if you lose too much then tough, you probably took on too much risk. And lets face it Chrisbow, risking such large amounts based on a newsletters advise, wasn't perhaps the cleverest thing to do.

    Jack Crooks

    Chrisbow, I understand you've had losses of magnitude and you seem fairly upset about the whole Crooks thing. Can you elaborate on the recommendations you followed, and why this seem to have failed so badly?

    Has anyone used Jack Crooks Service?

    Also worth mention. Crooks, suggested the dollar strength about a year ago. His first recommendation on the EUR/USD short was when it was trading a 14700. It went up to 16000, so yes he was early, but never the less he was, as always, annoyingly, bl**dy right. I was following another chap...

    Treasury Bond market falling?

    but this time around, when stocks get smashed, and the dollar too, where to go then? Gold I suppose, my other strategy... Do you agree with me that 0% interest rate is also the trigger to buy gold, or is there anything to suggest further deflationary pressure on gold? What if the US treasury...

    Treasury Bond market falling?

    Hey everyone, I'm considering shorting treasury bonds (TLT) (or buy a put spread of some sorts) or buying the ultrashort 20 yr TB version called TBT, either way, I'd make money if the treasure bond market falls. My first theory is that the dollar is propped up due to Americans selling stocks...

    understanding index linked gilts

    I'm finding it difficult to understand gilts... I'm actually finding myself really daft. What happens when interest rate hits 0%? I don't know... If I think the UK is at risk of defaulting, I should demand higher interest for my money... Is interest = yield? *&*(& this is doing my head in... And...

    Can anyone backtest this system ?

    Nick, hope this finds you well.. I came across your post as I was looking for reviews on elmtrader - impressive if one is to believe the stats. I was looking at dow fs1 2008, but it looks too good to be true. I'd like to check out your system, but as I'm new here, I'm not sure how to view...
