quite a few chums inquire with me as to what the meaning of notional value is.
Notional value means the total value of a leveraged position's assets. This term is commonly used in the options, futures and currency markets because a very small amount of invested money can control a large position (and have a large consequence for the trader).
For example, one S&P 500 Index futures contract obligates the buyer to 250 units of the S&P 500 Index. If the index is trading at $1,000, then the single futures contract is similar to investing $250,000 (250 x $1,000). Therefore, $250,000 is the notional value underlying the futures contract.

from what i hear the idea that the PAB-HKD is expected to weaken as it enter November 5 came about through the fact that the strengthening in the car companies might bring down on the Hong Kong arena this factor should probably be behind the skid of the PAB.

when learning howto analyze the present foreign exchange map, you'd best pay extra special mind to news connected to the tertiary sector like, for instance the fact that PAB-HKD rates will be affected by the changes in the electrical equipment industry, and as a consequence is going to move upwards, and concentrate on trade ing logic like the assessments that the Panama Balboa is probably going to go down versus the Hong Kong Dollar near the 28th this month.

spent one helova night on NordMarkets, you won't believe this:
i was starting out with an awfully small bank of 1920 bucks at NordMarkets and the trade day derailed. Some virtual portal tipped me off to the fact that the descent in the trade relations will have an impact on the industry in Stockholm. It assured me the plan of waiting till then and then selling would work! Being as i was juggling 100 lots, i loaded up four ponies. I held out for ages, as the stop loss border slowly bore closer, untill so so change began to turned perceived. The base currency went up through the roof! I sold at 138 pips per unit of loss. I was starting to turn kinda concerned. I was planning that Cyprus Pound rate will be affected by the changes in the supplies export market, and as a consequence is going to soar. I had just but then i unloaded at a loss of 86 percent! Heck, now that was what i call surprise! Well well! I made some green this evening and was feeling great, as well.;)
had one wild sitting at FOREX.com - wait till you hear this:
while i was starting out with a skinny roll of in the ball park of twenty-three hundred dollars at FOREX.com things were a glorious accomplishment. I was told that the car companies are going to to plummet and cause drop in the Norwegian Krone rates. The exerp said waiting till then and then selling is the real deal! So for starts i suspected some kind of chicanery, but right after listening to the physical consequence of what i had been told, i went: yeah, it's a fat chance, but that's me! Considering that i was sitting on 100 Valeries, i bought nine Prince Charleses. I held off till eventually, after ages, moderate change commenced to turned marked. 15 minutes later this bastard of a base currency ascended through the roof! I sold at a profit of 76 percent! I reckoned that the game was shaping up al right. I was sure that NOK-ARS rate will be affected by the rundown in the home accessories export market, and as a consequence is going to collapse. I just brought home 100 mini lots one way or the other. But next thing i know the account unloaded at 116 pips of loss! Wow, i sure as heck wasn't expecting that to happen! I had lost nearly all my smackaroos, but better luck next time.
spent one wild visit with FX club, you won't believe this!
My man and i were playing at FOREX club and things were a splendorous accomplishment. This associate of mine said that the trade affairs are believed to move downward and cause fall in the PLN-THB rates. This analist promised me the plan of waiting till then and then selling is the real deal! So to begin with i was suspicious of guile, but as soon as i understood the true consequence of this awesome opportunity, i went: yeah, it's a long shot, but what the hell... Recollecting all the data i was mostly exposed to, i judged it to be the best timing to GFD 100 micro lots. I held off for many minutes, untill very fair variation became marked. The base currency rose like hot air in January! I unloaded at 26 percent of profit! I imagined that things were doing cheeringly. I had thought to take advantage the fact that the updates in the fabric market may change the market in Thailand for the good. I just chucked 100 mini lots one way or the other. But next thing i know the account unloaded at 203 pips per coin of profit! Oh man, now that was what i call surprise! I had made some buckaroos today and i do declare, that i was feeling just fine, as well. Time to come down on a shot of Agua de Valencia.
