Clutching at straws again Snige. A sore loser who can't accept the democratic result.
I can be sure that anyone who paid the slightest bit of attention for even 60 seconds when our then PM David Cameron was speaking would 100% know that the UK was going to be leaving the Single Market and Customs union. He said it over and over again and what it's implications were.
WTO tariffs are no big deal we trade with the rest of the world on WTO tariffs. The Acronym WTO gets banded around like it's a terrible problem that we'd be doomed if we went on to WTO.
It's scaremongering nonsense. Your side lost Snige, and now it's ungraciously Remoans about it constantly.
The Kalergi Plan. Does it's goals and aims look familiar to you?
https://www.quora.com/What-was-the-Kalergi-Plan
I think it's fair to say we live in a "semi democratic country". If the Liberal Elite don't agree with your views, you're not allowed to have them. And we're never consulted on massive changes that clearly require referendums.
Over 80% of the UK's population growth over the last 15 years is directly attributable to immigrants and the children they had. We were never asked if we wanted this... we were told it was happening, and to disagree with it we were labelled a multitude of "ists" and "phobes".
The EU IN/OUT referendum was the first chance the British people got to protest against the forced Cultural Marxism. We originally agreed to join an economic pact of 5 countries to make 6.
This somehow completely and radically changed into a 28 country political union, with completely open borders... controlled by an EU commission that none of us have been allowed to vote for, that we can't remove and who dictate what we can and can't do in our country.
If the British people were told that this was the plan back in 1975, you'd be lucky if even 5% of our population would have voted for it.
"And dont talk about democracy like you have any... If the British, Swedish, German, French, etc, were all asked on whether they wanted mass immigration from bangladesh, pakistan, africa, etc, the answer would have been a NO from ALL of the aformentioned...
Therefore realise that you are allowed to have a "democratic" view on certain things, but not on others... Thats not a democracy."
To be fair, it's hard to argue with that. We've never been asked. The Kalergi Plan is in full flow, and has been for many years.
"THIS HAPPENED JUST LIKE USA SAVED UK IN WW2 FACT"
=====================================================
The USA didn’t enter the war to save Britain, they were dragged in by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour and by Germany and Italy’s declaration of war on them in December 1941. In 1940 Britain and its Commonwealth allies stood alone against the world dominance of Germany and Italy in Europe and Japan in Asia.
Without this guy we might not have won. British man.

When I'm trading FX, it's a 24 hour effort. I don't mean sitting in front of the screen for 24 hours... but I sleep in the spare room with the Laptop on the bed side cabinet. If a technical level is hit it beeps like hell to tell me, I wake up, check the chart and place the trade, then go back to sleep with a stop set new alert set for the opposite end.
Trading alerts at 2 or 3 in the morning is not unusual haha
"Lots of people can (and do) make money in a demo account and think this is easy - but behaviour and emotions are very, very different when it is (your own) real money at risk and hence why c90% or so lose with CFDs or spread betting. I think the emotional side is the harder side of trading and more so than understanding technical analysis and charts. ATB, Scfc"
Totally agree on the emotional side. Demo accounts come in handy for testing strategies in a safe environment, if learning on them, people should trade like it's their own money, to understand how easy it is to lose that money.
One of the biggest hurdles to trading is trusting the strategy you have works more often than not. I sit for hours manually back testing strategies to see what they would have produced and then allow 10 to 20% deduction on the profits because in practice it's hard to get the entry price when it happens in fast moving markets.
Back testing gives me a good idea what the maximum stop distance I need to employ is in order to allow the trade to breathe.
Although with all this said, I'm not in big... I don't have the time to manage all our funds now with trading, so I'm just spread betting for fun. If the market takes a bad beating over the next year or two... I'll buy up investment trusts and let someone else worry about managing our funds.
2CV is getting anxious again about his Non Domiciled UK tax dodging status, his EU property and his ability to move freely across border-less subservient EU states.
So he's on to de-stress himself by having a pop at Brexit again.
Glen's more simple. It's just a penny = 1 pip. But don't do the spread betting Billy, 80% of people lose. If you're considering it... play with a demo account for a while to get used to it.
Yeah if you were long from £1.32 to £1.3230 that would be 30 pips x 10 = £100
But there's a spread between the buy and sell quotes... you pay that when you open the trade as part of the trade, there's also an overnight holding charge (very small in relation to trade size) you barely notice it.
A regular stop loss is free, but in extreme market conditions if you use a regular stop loss it can slip a bit and take more money off you. If you use a Guaranteed stop there's a small charge when you open the trade, but it's refunded if it isn't triggered.
There's no stamp duty to pay when spread betting. Not capital gains tax and the holding charge is normally less than a trading fee would be unless you're leveraging and therefore borrowing money from the broker.
The trader chooses how much they risk per PIP (Percentage Improvement Point). So say you're taking a £10 per pip risk... if you make 35 pips you make £350
I'm not saying how much I'm risking :-)
With Crude oil with a price of $71 if it goes to $72 that's 100 pips or £1000 profit if using the £10 per pip example.
With GBPUSD at £1.31, if it goes to £1.32 that's also 100 pips. Each Penny increase/decrease on the GBPUSD exchange rate represents 100 pips. If it moves 1 penny against you with £10 a point, that represents a £1000 loss, which is one of the reasons Forex is so difficult to trade, and not for beginners.
BoomerBower,
You may not care about Borders, The Nation State or sovereignty. But evidently 17+ Million people do. I do agree on the Hard Brexit term, I used it as it's become a popular way of describing what the majority of people actually voted for.
We were told many, many times that leaving the EU would mean leaving the Single Market, Leaving the Customs Union, ending ECJ supremacy over British judges etc
This is not what Treason May and her band of Sycophants are trying to deliver.
"Just-Your-Opinions,
Who in their right mind would want a 'hard brexit' ?"
Me
I closed the Crude OIL short @ 71.424 earlier for 34.4 Pips
Still got the GBPUSD Long open, currently with about 50 pips profit
I want a hard brexit... I don't put my trust in the politicians to deliver it... many of them are going completely against the majority result in their respective constituencies, and they will pay dearly for that error at the next election. And election that may come sooner than they had expected.
Higher entry than before.. I'll sit on my hands for a bit, because I have a feeling it'll throw long/short signals close together. If not then hopefully it heads to the 333p gap
We don't have any future inside the EU... it wants to abolish the nation state with completely open borders, rampant immigration and through taking more and more sovereignty away from us.
No thanks.
Far left, Left and Middle are all dangerous.
Right wing is the way forward. (not far right)
The people here using the term "Far Right" haven't a clue what far right actually means. Go on to Gab.Ai a social media website where moderators don't prohibit 99% of the speech and you will see the real far right, actual Nazi's who hate Jews etc
The Right Wing Parties growing the fastest in Europe are not "far right". They are the only true Right Wing Conservative parties in Europe now. Our current Conservative party is not Conservative, they're centre left.
And our current Labour party are Far Left.
The Christian Social Union (CSU) dropped from 56.1% to 37.3%
The centre-left Social Democrats (SPD) went from 23.3% to 10%
The Greens went from 10% to 17.8%
Alternative for Germany (So called far right) went from 0% to 11% the AFD did not contest the 2013 election.
The AFD grew their vote share more than the Greens did. So yet again the fastest growing party in yet another election in Europe is a Nationalist (so called far right party)
I prefer to call them Just Right.
And I've been "just right" again :-)
I'm short Crude OIL WTI @ 71.768
and Long GBPUSD @ 1.31002
Both in profit at the moment.
