That's odd.

Hi All

Just thought I'd say hello before I get outed (bosley style) by a popular member of this thread.

Been lurking around here for the last couple of months trying to get my head around forex. Inspired by Harlosh's initial muppet trades (sorry John) but must thank him for asking many beginners questions. Thanks too go to those who take the time out to answer them.

My first foray into forex was a short on cable taken yesterday. Looked ugly early this morning but the falls has turned it into a beautiful swan :-))

bosley - 05 Apr 2006 12:28 - 5313 of 11056

well done, bakko. has she been threatening you , too?

bakko - 05 Apr 2006 12:34 - 5314 of 11056

bosley, thanks. Not yet but if i'd waited any longer i'd have been outed!

goforit - 05 Apr 2006 13:28 - 5315 of 11056

chocolat - 05 Apr 2006 17:08 - 5316 of 11056

bakko - 05 Apr 2006 18:39 - 5317 of 11056

Thanks gfi.

Choccie...You have to remember that I'm old and frail. Also I'm still recovering from the trauma of being mugged at the casino last week!

NEW YORK, April 5 (Reuters) - Average daily spot foreign exchange volume on global trading platform EBS rose to a record $132 billion in the first quarter of 2006, up 2.3 percent from the same quarter a year ago, EBS said on Wednesday.

The busiest day of the quarter was Feb. 10, when total trading exceeded $191 billion through 102,000 deals, said EBS in a statement.

"It has been a remarkable Q1 for global spot foreign exchange. We have seen extremely high levels of trading from counterparties from across the world," said Bill Moran, chief operating officer at EBS.

Last month alone was the second highest for volume in EBS' history when counterparties from across the globe traded a total average of $137 billion per day. March also saw the highest total of counterparties trading on the systen, up 15 percent from a year earlier.

Volume was intense across both emerging and developed markets. The record trading period includes volumes from EBS Prime customers.

EBS is co-owned by 13 banks, including major currency dealers UBS, Citigroup, HSBC and JP Morgan Chase.

EBS and Reuters (RTR.L: Quote, Profile, Research) are the two major players in the spot currency interbank dealing market.

According to the Bank for International Settlements last triennial survey, total average daily volume in global currency trading - including spot, forwards, options, swaps and other derivative contracts - was $1.9 trillion at the end of April 2004.
