    It's not his fault, it's the marginal gain approach imploding and taking anyone who uses it with them. This is how it should be done http://www.ustream.tv/channel/3CYHkspXE5t (make sure to choose 1080p).

    How much lower can it fall? There has to be a retracement sooner or later.

    Parity, but that call was made in July 2013, how it gets there is another matter.

    Singapore bank DBS warned, "it is premature to conclude that the worst is over," adding that its worst-case scenario was for the pound to fall 10-20 percent on a trade-weighted basis. That implied the pound could fall to $1.15-$1.25, and could even "overshoot" to as far as $1.05, DBS said.

  8. It's the perfect long-term trade considering the upside vs. downside potential. What happens in the short-term doesn't change that macro view. Like I mentioned before, dollar cost average into it every month for six months.

  10. It's a trade in my IRA that I'm comfortable sleeping with at night. I only buy and hold tangible assets and never average down daytrades. To answer your question though, I'll average into any price under 1.30. I estimate that it will outperform the US Dollar and S&P within 24 months.
