Ok, enough said, here’s the premise (and you know what, they used the story from the movie ‘In Time’:

==========================

Imagine in today’s society if instead of using money we used time?

Instead of $30,000 to buy a new car it costs you three months of your life.

That’s the premise of the 2011 movie In Time.

It takes place in a futuristic society where time is the currency instead of money.

Everything is paid with time. Rent. Food. Travel.

Of course, there is a social rift in this system. The rich and poor are divided.

The poor live in ghettos and work in factories – hoping to stay ahead of the clock. Their pay is in minutes and hours and days.

If their clock runs out, they basically “time-out” and die.

Always low on time, the poor instinctively run everywhere. They are frustrated and desperate. And have to work harder each passing day and week for the same pay. Plus, the amount of time that is charged for things is constantly raised.

For instance, in one scene, a woman is faced with a life-threatening dilemma. She gets on a bus and the bus fare has been raised to two hours – more time than she has in her “bank”. Looking at her arm, she only has 1.5 hours of time left on her clock, yet her destination, where she will get more time, is a 2-hour walk if she can’t ride the bus.

The wealthy on the other hand live in massive mansions with ocean views. Eat in fancy restaurants. Family members are gifted decades of time. In fact, all the wealthy seem to have an endless supply of time and freedom to do as they please.

Fortunately, in the non-science fiction world we still use money as our currency. But the premise of the movie is not that far off. Because “time is money.”  And how much money you have and earn, while it can’t buy you time, it can buy you more free time.

In other words, the money you make is directly proportional to how wisely you use your time.

And the truth is most people would like more time in their bank to spend however they wanted. What about your current situation? What would having more time do for you?

Think of it. You could have more time to spend with family. Travel if you like. Work on that business idea you have. And have time left over to do the things you love to do – whatever that may be.

==========================

The balance are the sales pitch, so I took it out. Anyway, hope this posting remind us the value of time!

2) Ability to tweak the system.
Reputable Forex robot software systems will reveal the logic behind them – more specifically how they generate their trading signals. If you understand and agree with their logic, then you will have confidence in the system and will be able to use the system with ease. The best robots allow you to trade with multiple currency pairs, but remember a robot may be good for a certain pair and not the rest.. This gives you the ability to customize the robot with the right lots, stops and limits.

3) Be realistic.
Don’t believe the stories that promise to make you rich overnight – any product that says you will is a scam. Be aware that you will face short-term losing streaks; that’s simply the reality of trading. In order to be successful, you will have to stick it out long-term and not get frustrated with a short-term losing streak. By being realistic, you want moderate, consistent results.

To get the most out of your Forex EA Robot, you will need to learn how to properly use it. You cannot just install it and expect your pockets to fill up with money. There is a learning curve involved that includes testing and tweaking your robot until you have picked the strategy right for you. Hopefully, this has better prepared you to choose a Forex EA Robot. You weed out all the scams and ineffective products.

Golder Markets issues an Official Notice to warn clients & affiliates on fraudulent churning activities

Golder Markets Ltd., the London, UK-based global online trading and brokerage service, today issued an official notice to all partners (including online affiliates, introducing brokers and white label partners) on the seriousness of churning clients’

“In attempting to earn an commission of around USD2,200, One introducing broker (IB) churned and burned 5 clients accounts with multiple GBPNZD trades in less than 15 minutes, causing a total client loss of around USD7,500. This prompts us to issue this official notice to warn clients and affiliates on fraudulent churning activities,” said Marketing Director Damien Middleton.

1. One of our IB, Mr. Mohd Rizal Bin Maslan (Golder Partners AFF 1521) emailed Golder Markets to ask what happened on Thursday 08 September 2011 evening London time and enquired about 5 accounts. Initially, the backoffice staffs have no idea of what’s happening. After a few round of questionings, the firm realised that Rizal was holding on to the clients accounts login details and trading the accounts without any Limited Power of Attorney.

2. After a thorough investigation, Golder Markets realised these 5 accounts were all stop out at around 19:00 platform time on Thursday. The firm looked into our systems and detected that they were multiple GBPNZD trades done on 5 accounts on this IP address 110.159.13.240, which is apparently in Malaysia. In fact, there are apparently 7 accounts concurrently trading on this IP address 110.159.13.240 over the last week including last Thursday incident.

3. On Thursday afternoon London time (which was 2 hours before the trade execution), 2 clients out of the 7 clients requested for withdrawal. Funds are also released to these 2 clients on Friday morning.

4. On the balance 5 accounts, there are close to 15-20 GBPNZD trades executed in less than 15 minutes, all 0.5 standard lots per trade per account. All accounts were stopped out till the stage of negative free margin and even the credit bonus were all lost. As GBPNZD is a high spread currency pair, the 25% commission Mr. Rizal supposed to receive totaled $2,223.67 with just these trades in 15 minutes.

5. At the same time, Rizal’s introducing website (goldermarkets dot biz) now shifted to introduce other broker, pushing blame to Golder Markets and spread falsified comments about the broker. Mr Rizal also threatens and ransom Golder Markets with the falsified comments.

6. Due to the seriousness of this issue, Golder Markets had suspended Mr. Rizal’s IB account as he suspected of trying to churn and burn the accounts before clients withdraw the fund. This finding is not conclusive yet.

7. We have attached the log files (showing that IP address and activities in the accounts) at http://www.golderforex.com/specialcase/200912-IB-official-notice.html.

8. If you had allowed someone to get hold of your account before, Golder Markets strongly advise you not to let anyone have your passwords. Even with client permission, IBs or affiliates should not be holding on to the login details and should advise clients to change the login details immediately.

“While the forex industry is driven by trade volume, we cannot tolerate partners to trade clients’ accounts without LPOA. Clients who want their accounts to be managed must be authorised under a Multi-Account Management (MAM) with a Limited Power of Attorney (LPOA).” said Middleton.

“Golder Markets, or any major brokers I should say, will not tolerate any partners, affiliates, introducing brokers, white label partners in attempting to churn and damage clients accounts or whatsoever.” he added.
