Dollar Falls in Light Holiday-Week Trading

The dollar was mixed against major currencies Monday, as a light trading day left markets largely inactive, and Middle East conflict raised concerns about oil and commodities.
At 5 p.m. ET, the 15-nation euro was trading at $1.3927, down from $1.4025 late Friday. The British pound rose to $1.4413 amid expectations for U.K. interest rates to stand well below those in the euro zone.

Parity for the euro and pound is within sight, as the euro rose to an all-time high of 0.9722 pound.
Meanwhile, against the Japanese yen, the greenback slid to ¥90.65 from ¥90.78.
"There's still a holiday feel in the air," said Nick Bennenbroek, head of currency strategy at Wells Fargo. "The trading activity is very light, so the dollar is staying weak."
Bennenbroek said he expected the greenback would remain "defensive" for most of the week.

Middle East air strikes

The possibility of higher oil and commodity prices due to conflict in the Middle East also raised further concerns about the U.S. economy.
The war-torn Gaza Strip has endured air strikes from Israeli warplanes for three straight days, following the Dec. 19 expiration of a six-month cease-fire with Hamas, which controls Gaza.

The strikes have killed hundreds, sparking protests and increasing concerns that oil supplies from the Middle East, the world's largest producing region, will be disrupted.
"There has been an inverse relationship between oil prices and the weaker dollar," Bennenbroek said. "When these geopolitical events happen, the dollar's decline is not unexpected."
Bennenbroek also noted that although the dollar is traditionally viewed as a safe haven, the buck's status "has been pretty mixed lately."

In sharp contrast to the greenback, the Swiss franc gained on the heightened geopolitical risk.
Commodity currencies including the Norwegian crown and Australian dollar strengthened as gold and oil prices rose amid the Gaza hostilities.
Gold rose more than 2% to its strongest since early October. Oil prices rose above $40 a barrel, up nearly 8% on the previous session.
The dollar is probably near a bottom, Bennenbroek said, as the greenback has fallen sharply.

Forex Signals Providers | ForexGen

This is another common forex scam. Again they are often run by losing traders falsifying their results. Some of them charge a high monthly fee to tell you went you should open and close your trades.

Very few forex signal providers have positive results in the long term, regardless of what they may claim on their website.

Another thing that is worth considering, if these signal providers really could make money from their own trading signals, would it not be a lot more profitable for them to actually trade them with their own money rather than selling them?

Unfortunately some of these failing traders decide to setup a “managed account service”, offering to trade other people's money for them, even though they are losing traders.

The reason they do it is because there is often very lucrative commissions to be made from the forex broker. Some managed accounts investments actually charge you for each trade they make; regardless of it wins or lose. So you end can end up paying to have a bad trader lose your money.
