I will post more information when I'm done with my due diligence. My options trading has been going well. I've been expecting a declining market for some time now. I have an open June bear spread that is in the money and I had a long put trade that I closed in the money a few weeks ago. I haven't been doing much forex trading. I was long on the dollar on Wednesday for the Fed rate increase and made 20 pips. That was the first forex trade I've done in months. I’m still reviewing the traders and autotraders.

Looking back through your blog you mentioned some things about trying a few self trading strategies including Options trading, A few forex strategies, etc. How have those been going for you? I assume when you say "Most of them are traders or autotraders that work with power of attorney over brokerage accounts." you are saying that most of you income and capital growth is derived from Managed Forex accounts? Are you willing to say what Organisations / Managers have you invested with? I'm also in the market for Managed Forex and Managed Futures accounts. Thanks Hello Dan,

I'm well aware of HYIPs. For those who don't know HYIP stands for high yield investment program. If you ever see anything calling itself that stay far away as it is a scam. I've been a member of <a href="http://www.talkgold.com" rel="nofollow">TalkGold</a> for a year and have made (and lost) considerable money in them. It didn't take me long to figure out that 99% of them are scams. Luckily I was smart enough to earn back my early losses rather quickly and quit those scams. The investments I referred to in my post are real. Most of them are traders or autotraders that work with power of attorney over brokerage accounts. Thanks for the reply. I’m well aware of HYIPs.
