Mike,

I got a buy signal Friday for both the Euro and D-Mark. (I know -- T.A.'s bull, but I'll bet it works in this case. <g>)

I have a question regarding how to play for a nice trading rally in these currencies.

The only time I dealt in currencies was several years ago when I lived in Asia, and a feature of my bank account was to buy and sell currencies for me (I think it was a minimum of $10k or maybe $50k).

I was hoping you could give me some hints as to the best way (or various ways) to trade currencies. I believe there are currency options on the cboe, but from what I can tell they are very thinly traded. I've never traded futures, and I don't have a futures account.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Marc

Dear Mike,

You are still my favorite poster and financial advisor.

Is it time to buy T, MSFT and CSCO? What are your thoughts about AWE (tracking stock of T)?

What do you think about T's CEO C.M. Armstrong?
TIA
Mohammed

MB,

Do you have any thoughts on how some of the old favorites SWZ, GER, EF, OST, and PGF might do if we get a bounce in the Euro against the USD. The risk right now seems that the markets are bent on selling off no matter where in the world you are. <g>
