Also, can you comment on whether the Tradition Group already have, or will be applying for a Banking licence, as per the new Swiss regs? btw, I agree with you to an extent about the NFA, but it does at least provide potential customers with a sense of security by collating brokers' assets. The alternative is bucketshops like Fxopen and Aleccohfx - one has no permantent address and ellegedly robs its customers blind, the other, despite supposedly having assets of $61,000,000 (if memory serves) is now officially bankrupt, with unknown individuals having emptied its coffers, even though its owner (Aleccoh) was still spinning lies just a week ago... |

House Passes Farm Bill
House passes election-year farm bill
By MARY CLARE JALONICK 1 hour ago WASHINGTON (AP) The House passed a $290 billion farm bill Wednesday with a strong veto-proof majority, offering more subsidies for farmers, food stamps for the poor and special projects that lawmakers can bring home to voters this election year. The 318-106 vote for the five-year bill came despite President Bush's promised veto. He says the measure is too expensive and gives too much money to wealthy farmers. About two-thirds of the bill would pay for nutrition programs such as food stamps and emergency food aid for the needy. An additional $40 billion is for farm subsidies while almost $30 billion would go to farmers to idle their land and to other environmental programs. Senators planned to begin debating the bill later Wednesday. A rejection of a Bush veto may be even easier in the Senate, where farm states have greater representation than they do in the House. Congress has only overridden one veto, on a water projects bill, during Bush's two terms. This measure is not perfect, said the chairman of the House Agriculture Committee, who believes it is balanced. "We've put a bill together that I think addresses what people are concerned about in this country," said Rep. Collin Peterson, D-Minn. Republicans, however, criticized the mostly bipartisan and popular bill because home-state projects added in an election year. The bill includes tax breaks for Kentucky racehorse owners, extra help for farmers in Hawaii and Alaska, and dollars for salmon fishermen in the Pacific Northwest. "This bill has been under consideration for a long, long time, and yet still we have earmarks that have been 'air dropped' into the legislation," said Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz. Ahead of the House veto, Bush made his objections clear, noting that married farmers who make up to $1.5 million still could collect subsidies under the new farm bill. "I believe doing so at a time of record farm income is irresponsible and jeopardizes America's support for necessary farm programs," Bush said. |

Halloween: The Day the Dead Pool Rises from the Grave
Cue up the Michael Myers Halloween Theme
I have just finished reading the Farm Bill language and it is clear that the Congress is not giving the industry much time to adapt to the incredible changes they are forcing upon retail forex dealers and introducing brokers. The full language is now available at the House of Representatives website: House Committee on Agriculture: Title XIII (page 548) is the part of the bill that references the forex industry. Note the following language as it pertains to adjusted net capital requirements for forex dealers: http://agriculture.house.gov/inside/...onf/CRlang.pdf Quote:
The bill also creates a separate registration category for Forex Dealers and gives the CFTC tremendous leeway in crafting rules governing this new financial services category. There is no telling what the CFTC might come up with (tough new Margin Requirements? Customer Funds Segregation? New Dealing Practice Rules?) All in all the industry is in for a massive overhaul in the next 12 months. There are sure to be a lot of tricks and treats ahead. Stay Tuned. |

How anybody could critisize the regulation of Forex...is beyond me. Forex is a Circus just now and its only hope is regulation.
Futures in the USA could have become as Forex has...But Thanks to the NFA. The leveraged Futures industry and its instruments are regulated and the Circus was not allowed to proliferate. Thank you NFA Thank you CFTC We just cannot self-regulate ourselves, we need you and we pay taxes for you, here in the USA. ES P.S. However, It is my opinion that if the Forex Global players cannot unite into ONE regulated price feed...that the benefit of regulation cannot ever be, what it can be...
