Market brief for Wednesday, April 30, 2014

Travel and Tourism/Hotels and Hospitality

Domestic and International Companies

     The topics being looked at from this laptop desktop J , are vacation and business travel on the American East Coast, Bermuda, the Bahamas, the Caribbean, and northern South America, additionally, trading currencies on the forex, and, stocks and related on TD Ameritrade’s Thinkorswim platform.  Still nothing spectacular due to only using very small amounts of capital though have remained deeply interested and even smitten a tad with the markets and entrepreneurial ideas, trading, and investing after initially almost tripling my money around a year ago on the forex at FXCM. 

     First year and four months trading and investing with about a  20/4 ratio of successful trades netting a few dollars to trades at a loss erasing gains.  The four bad trades knocked the account all the way back to it’s start with 5 trades coming in for a small profit over the past two weeks.  A small return to profitable practice on the exchanges, pleasant. 

     In all simplicity trading international currencies were a part of this writer’s upbringing.  Mostly the close dollar for dollar relationship between the American dollar and the Bermudian dollar. Sometimes the pre-Euro Italian Lire to Bermudian dollars in the times just before the Euro became the new player of sorts on the currencies scene.  Insofar as an inanimate piece of paper and coin can play sports humorously enough.
