I’ve been curious lately about Canada Forex.
The Canadian Dollar looks like a good trade to be in these days, given its recent meteoric rise.
I’ve been poking around the Canadian Web looking for sites on Canadian Dollar Futures. I’ve found some decent info.
I’ve been trading other currencies for a few years, so adding one more shouldn’t be too tough.
Gotta Run for now. More later.

I think it’s high time I learned more about
How to Become a Financial Planner. I’m sick of practicing law, and would rather help individual people out with their finances.
From what I have read about Certified Financial Planner Courses, it doesn’t appear too touch for someone with my background to break into the business.
I can’t think of any better way to earn a living than to help people achieve financial independence.
Your comments are welcome as always.

So I’ve decided that the best way to make a change in the way things are is to vote with my pocketbook. That includes my investment portfolio as well as my purchase. So I’m learning more about Sustainable Investing.
In particular, Reforestation Products has had some fascinating developments lately. It’s a mixed bag, of course - there is not such thing as a perfectly environmentally sound business. But the market is finally beginning to flex its power.
Even the tiny effort of choosing to invest your personal savings in businesses who look to the future can make a difference if enough of us choose to do it.

Please comment and let me know what you think.

It used to be that focusing on

I’m especially interested in Green Stocks. The tide appears finally to be turning in the markets, and not a moment too soon.
Don’t just vote with your wallet, vote with your portfolio. Let’s keep our capital in the hands of those who will put it to the best use.

The term ‘pip’ means ‘percentage in point’. It is a unit of measurement that describes the smallest possible movement a currency can make, in terms of its value. It is 1/100th of one percent, or four decimal places. Quite interestingly, the Japanese yen is only valued up to two decimal places, as a result of its currency not having gone any revaluation since the end of the Second World War. Foreign exchange traders need to follow  pips history  very closely if they want to be able to have an idea of whether or not to make certain selling or purchase decisions. For example, if the value of a held currency has been decreasing a few pips every week, one might want to sell their reserves.
