American Silver Eagles - A Great Investment

By Samuel Sterns

In the past, silver has been the most affordable of all the precious metals. Because of this, there is a huge demand for silver and it trades well on the stock market and also sells well for a nice profit. Because of silver and its popularity, American Silver Eagles have seen a huge surge in demand and sales have gone way up.

American Silvers Eagles are a coin that was first released back on November 24, 1986 by the Mint of the United States. These are officially the silver bullion coin of the U. S. These coins are authorized by Congress. The weight and purity of these coins come with a guarantee from the U. S. Government. Each of these coins is guaranteed to have 1 troy ounce of 99. 9% silver. Each coin has a thickness of 2. 98 mm.

There is a design on the American Silver Eagles and it is taken from old half dollars that were in circulation from 1916 through 1947. This design was created by Adolph A. Weinman and is called "Walking Liberty." The design was loved so much that it was brought back to be used as the design that is currently on the American Silver Eagles since 1986.

American Silver Eagles are produced at 3 different mints. Each mint has their own mark that is placed on each coin to let the consumer know where the coin originated from. The Philadelphia Mint has the mint mark "P", the San Francisco Mint has the mint mark "S" and the West Point, NY Mint has the mint mark "W."

If the Silver Eagles were to be used as traditional money, which they very rarely are, they would only have a value of one dollar. These coins are most often bought and kept for their investment abilities. The price of each coin would be determined by a few different factors such as year minted, grade and condition. Only a true professional dealer would be able to tell you the exact amount your coin is worth.

American Silver Eagles are available for sale at many different venues. The United States Mint will sell these outright to a consumer. There are many websites that are dedicated to collectible coins where they can be purchased. They can also be bought from precious metal dealers and brokers.

The American Silver Eagle coin is a loved and cherished coin by many and is an excellent investment. These coins have seen a surge in value and price and that trend seems to be continuing. - 23208

Starting Out As A RE Investor

By Doc Schmyz

One of the best ways to get started with building your own personal wealth-building system is by investing in real estate. Becoming a real estate investor is a daunting task, but one that will, if operated efficiently, pay dividends forever.

How do you start? Well lets take a look at a few time tested methods.

First things first, where to find the information? In the last several years the amount of real estate investment groups has exploded. Find a local one and attend a meeting. And dont be afraid to ask the most basic of questions.

RE investors, are for the most part, a great group of people, from all walks of life? The one thing we all share is our passion for what we do. We discuss tactics and ideas about what to invest in as well as where. We share tips on things that have worked...and warnings about things that dont.

Before actually buying any investment properties, beginning real estate investors should begin to put their organizations together by outlining a specific business plan. The plan should go over every step in the purchase of a property, from the marketing strategies on through the sale or leasing of a property.

So know you need to decide on the type of investment property you want to invest in. do you like the idea of duplexes? Single family homes? Small apartments? Remember this, if you start out with one type and become familiar with it, then you will learn exactly what you need to do to make the profit from it. Being a specialist in this manner can lead to faster profits.

Begin to get together a group of contractors and sub-contractors who you can trust to work within your new system and according to your business plans and your budget.

If you will be working with "fixer-upper" houses, line up a plumber and an electrician, as well as heating and air-conditioning experts. Better yet, find a reliable "handyman" who is capable of doing many of the jobs needed in fixing up houses.

Working with an investors real estate agent in a dream....but they are a nightmare to find. Interview your agent. Tell them exactly what you want to do. Tell them...I want to invest in real estate...I want to buy x amount of properties a year". This means you need to have an agent thats willing to do far more for you then just show you a house or two. A good agent will write offers...LOTS of offers, and show you the selling history for a given area.

Time is always a key factor in real estate investing, so always look to ways to "turn" a property in the least amount of time. A property that remains unsold or not rented is eating up profits every day it in your possession. Learn to cut the losses on properties that fail to meet their profit potential.

Are mistakes going to happen? Yes. They happen to every real estate investor...the trick is to learn how to spot them. The longer you hold on to a property the lower your profit.

Be efficient, and resourceful. Keep your eye on your bottom line and you will grow a nice little investment business. - 23208

FAP Turbo - Getting the Most Profit From Your Forex Robot

By Brendan Wilson

The FAP Turbo has rapidly established itself as one of the most profitable and sought after forex trading robots on the market. People are no doubt attracted to the thought of simply plugging in a a Forex Robot and watching their account grow as they sleep. It all sounds really easy and the most effortless way of making money there is available. Like everything else though, the truth is always more complex than that which first meets the eye. Whilst you might strike it lucky and go straight into profit, it is likely that without some market experience and knowledge of tuning Forex Robots you will lose money. Lately the market conditions have changed greatly meaning that few if any automated trading systems function with the same effectiveness. They need to be "tuned" to function in the prevailing market conditions.

Another important factor is which forex broker you use. Not all forex brokers are the same. Often the quality of their data feed and the amount of slippage they implement will decide whether or not you are profitable. Do forex brokers manipulate the price/data feed to your robot? For a large percentage of forex brokers, and I have tried perhaps 40, the answer is yes. They do often manipulate prices through such things as slippage, delaying, holding trades and generally providing poor trade execution. I have witnessed this myself on very many occasions.

Often when testing robots I would witness the same robot make a profit with one broker only to be losing or making a considerably smaller profit on another. In the past I have experienced first hand brokers who either refuse the use of FAP Turbo through their brokerage or place all the FAP Turbo traders on a different trading server with altered trading conditions. When brokers start to take notice of a particular Forex Robot, it is probably a good indication that it is profitable.

That is all good and well but how do you know which broker to choose, or which ones to avoid? There is the old trial and error method that will help you work out eventually which broker to use, if you don't send yourself broke in the meantime. Or alternatively you can check around the myriad of forex forums for some guidance on which brokers to use. Just keep in mind that everyone seems to have an opinion on this subject of what constitutes a fair and honest broker and many also may have a commercial interest in referring you to a particular broker. Keep these factors in mind when you choose a forex broker.

As Forex Robots get more complex, so does the process of tuning them to best suit the market conditions relevant at the time. Changing the robots myriad of settings can radically effect the way the robot trades and ultimately decide if you make a profit or not. Demo trading can assist in the tuning process but of course demo trading can only try and emulate actual market conditions and trade execution. Small variations in either of these really can have a dramatic effect on the profitability of a robot, especially those that take a relatively small profit per trade such as the FAP Turbo.

Optimizing the settings for FAP Turbo can be a time consuming and somewhat frustrating task as you really need to be forward testing the robot, as experience as shown that while back testing can give you some indication of relative profitability ultimately of course it largely depends on the quality of your price data and can not factor in such things as the quality and speed of your brokers trade execution. Whatever you have read on forums, back testing is very limited in its scope and accuracy and can therefore only give you a very broad indication of whether your settings will prove to be profitable. To bypass this task you also have the option of using The FAP Turbo Expert Guide. The FAP Turbo Expert Guide was written to cater for forex traders of all levels of experience so that all readers can get the most out of it. It was written by Rob Casey who is suitably qualified to be an expert in his field of developing and tuning forex automated trading robots. The guide gives you all the information you need to easily optimize your FAP Turbo robot and start trading profitably.

Another factor you need to consider is the impact of recent changes in NFA regulations. This has had a tremendous impact on the retail forex industry globally. We have witnessed monumental changes with the biggest players in the retails forex industry and the full ramifications of these changes are still being felt. Many brokers have shifted their client base or a significant percentage of it offshore to Europe, Australia and the Middle East. - 23208

Understand How To Trade Options In Our Lifetime Options Course

By Johnny M Junior

Learn how to use a potent tool for investing, such as with an option. Learn how to trade options in our lifetime options course. Every investor should know about options and their benefits and risks.

Before you start, forget about anything that you have heard regarding the concern over risks when trading options. Options were created to manage and limit potential risks. In fact, there are some option trades that can be done with no risk at all.

Two option strategies are normally used for several reasons, speculation and hedging. Most people know what the word speculating means when it comes to investing. When you purchase stock, you are contemplating the way it will go. Saying investing is a lot less scary than saying speculating. There is never an assurance when purchasing stock. You might convince yourself that AAPL stock will increase, but if it was a guaranteed investment, you would spend every last dime you have. It is necessary to know that investing means taking chances. When you obtain options you are contemplating on what the price will be in the future, the chance you are taking in losing money is controlled, but the opportunity to make money is limitless.

Investors might also decide to hedge their investments. Ultimately, this means that the investor is paying for insurance that will guard their investment against unforeseen. Hedging is akin to paying for homeowners insurance. The possibility of a disaster occurring is slim to none, but knowing that someone else will have to shoulder the responsibility of the disaster is more satisfying than dealing with it on your own. Hedging your portfolio protects your investment.

The prices of options are based on the price of an underlying stock as well as many other factors.

Deciding whether to hedge or contemplate using your options is only the first step needed. You will find an option chain listing and then see what is available for you to select. Simply choosing to hedge or contemplate is not nearly enough. It is also wise to establish an investment strategy and whether you are trading a call option or a put. Decide what price you want to trade and how long you want the expiration date to last. Finally, what option strategy to use based on volatility in the markets.

The cost of options is determined by using an intricate differential equation.

Five necessities determine the value of stock options. Risk free rate, option strike price, time to expiration, underlying asset price and asset volatility are taken into consideration.

Each ingredient plays a role in establishing the value of an option. As an investor, you can only manage two of the ingredients: strike price and expiration. Take into account what your needs are and choose the one that will give you the desired results. Advice to help you on your way:

Hedging: using complex spreads which have little to no risk at all in order to protect ones portfolio.

Speculating: using directional or non-directional option strategies to make huge returns usually quickly while taking on some risk.

A variety of strategies are part of the out or in the money options that every investor should learn. An in the money option is going to cost more money to purchase but, the chance that it will retain value upon expiration is higher. An out of the money option is less expensive but there is a greater risk of it being worth nothing upon expiration. - 23208
