American Stock Exchange

NYSE Alternext U.S., formerly known as the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) is an American stock exchange situated in New York. AMEX was a mutual organization, owned by its members. Until 1953 it was known as the New York Curb Exchange.[4] On January 17, 2008 NYSE Euronext announced it would acquire the American Stock Exchange for $260 million in stock.[5] On October 1, 2008, NYSE Euronext completed acquisition of the American Stock Exchange.[6] Before the closing of the acquisition, NYSE Euronext announced that the Exchange will be integrated with Alternext European small-cap exchange and renamed NYSE Alternext U.S.[7]

The Exchange traces its roots back to colonial times, when stock brokers created outdoor markets in New York City to trade new government-issued securities. The AMEX started out in 1842 as such a market at the curbstone on Broad Street near Exchange Place. The curb brokers gathered around the lamp posts and mail boxes, resisting wind and weather, putting up lists of stocks for sale. As trading activity increased so did the volume of the transactions; the shouting reached such a high level that stock hand signals had to be introduced so that the brokers could continue trading over the din. In 1921 the market was moved indoors into the building at 86 Trinity Place, Manhattan, where it still resides. The hand signals remained in place for decades even after the move, as a convenient means of communication. The building was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1978.[2][8]

The First Stock Exchanges

In 11th century France the courtiers de change were concerned with managing and regulating the debts of agricultural communities on behalf of the banks. As these men also traded in debts, they could be called the first brokers.

Some stories suggest that the origins of the term "bourse" come from the Latin bursa meaning a bag because, in 13th century Bruges, the sign of a purse (or perhaps three purses), hung on the front of the house where merchants met.

However, it is more likely that in the late 13th century commodity traders in Bruges gathered inside the house of a man called Van der Burse, and in 1309 they institutionalized this until now informal meeting and became the "Bruges Bourse". The idea spread quickly around Flanders and neighbouring counties and "Bourses" soon opened in Ghent and Amsterdam.

In the middle of the 13th century, Venetian bankers began to trade in government securities. In 1351, the Venetian Government outlawed spreading rumors intended to lower the price of government funds. There were people in Pisa, Verona, Genoa and Florence who also began trading in government securities during the 14th century. This was only possible because these were independent city states ruled by a council of influential citizens, not by a duke.

The Dutch later started joint stock companies, which let shareholders invest in business ventures and get a share of their profits—or losses. In 1602, the Dutch East India Company issued the first shares on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange. It was the first company to issue stocks and bonds. In 1688, the trading of stocks began on a stock exchange in London.

On May 17, 1792, twenty-four supply brokers signed the Buttonwood Agreement outside 68 Wall Street in New York underneath a buttonwood tree. On March 8, 1817, properties got renamed to New York Stock & Exchange Board. In the 19th century, exchanges (generally famous as futures exchanges) got substantiated to trade futures contracts and then choices contracts.

There are now a large number of stock exchanges in the world.

Trading Procedures

Below are the trading procedures:

1. Open an Account

   Open a trading account and a Central Depository System (CDS) account with a stockbroking company.
   You will then be engaged with a licensed dealer or a remisier.
   
   

2. Engage Remisier

   Give an order to your remisier to buy or sell a specified number of shares of a company at a specified price.
   This is when you will need to provide the CDS account number for order entry.
   
   

3. Placing an Order

   Your orders are keyed into the WinSCORE (Bursa Malaysia's fully automated trading system) terminal at the stockbroking company.
   It is then relayed through the WinSCORE system to Bursa Malaysia's central computers.
   The order confirmation is immediately routed back to the stockbroking company.
   
   

4. Match Order

   Orders are matched automatically by the system.
   All prices which orders are matched are determined by market forces of supply and demand through a process of bids and offers.
   
   In every transaction, a security is sold to the highest bidder and purchased at the lowest offer.
   The price transacted for a buy order will either be at the same price keyed in, or lower if the seller's price is below the buyer's price.
   For a sale transaction, the price will be the same or higher if the buyer's order is higher.
   
   

5. Trade Confirmation

   Once the order is matched, a trade confirmation is printed out, providing details such as the original order number, stock number, price and quantity matched and the counter-party stockbroking company.
   The remisier in turn confirms with his client that he has bought/sold the specified number of shares and the price at which it was bought/sold/.
   To facilitate differentiation and to avoid confusion, the stockbroking company has different coloured slips for 'sell' and 'buy' orders.
   
   

6. Contract Notes

   The broking house will then send out contract notes to you, giving details of the transaction such as brokerage, stamp duty and clearing fees payable as well as the cost of purchase or proceeds of the sale.
   
   

7. T + 3

   There is no physical delivery of shares under the CDS. Instead, the CDS uses a simple book entry system to keep track of the movement of shares which arise from trades affected on Bursa Malaysia.
   For example, if you are a buyer of share A, your CDS account will be credited with Share A and the seller's account will show a debit of Share A.
   Sellers must have adequate shares in their CDS accounts by 12.30 pm on T+2 and buyer's account will be credited on T+3 with the shares, with T being the transaction date.

FX Correlations

The following is our monthly correlations update for April. As we have stated time and again, correlations between different currency pairs will inevitably shift over time. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to keep abreast of these fluctuating relationships to fully understand your trades and portfolio.

Charting Economic Surprises

Retail sentiment has once again shifted; and this time, speculative traders are positioning for the EURUSD’s long-term trend to remain intact. Over the past week, the Speculative Sentiment Index ratio jumped to its highest reading since last October - though this shouldn’t be too surprising considering the retail sector’s affinity for prominent technical levels. Today, the pair’s ratio stands at -1.59 with nearly 61% of the market group holding a long position

The extent of the decline from 1.6039 makes it unlikely that 1.5611 will hold. Expect a bounce from current levels, perhaps a spike through 1.5750 next week in order to complete a small c wave before 1.5611 is put to the test. A break below there would bring an end to the series of higher lows and puts bears firmly in control.

"... Right out of the gate I have found a great one to automatically handle my portfolio trading, CoolTrade.

CoolTrade is the product of a robust plan and a lot of talent. The software is capable of taking your logic, applying your rules, removing the emotions, and flawlessly executing your trading. If you check with the company web site, you'll find an invaluable tool. The site gives you the ability to look up the value holding a stock verses using CoolTrade. If you plug in your stock symbol you'll get either a pleasant surprise, or a shock.

In many instances using automated trading software, you need to learn a trading and a software developer language to effectively put together a script for use in your plans. Not so with CoolTrade. Here you can remain a trader. If you wish to establish a candlestick method, you quickly can. Say you'd like to go into a strategy based around moving averages. That's cool, and very simple. Get complex with a rocket scientist theory or stay simple and focused on the prize, either event can be handled with no problem. And the software is scheduled for even more trader improvements in the coming weeks. It is truly, cool.

For less than $40 a month, you can automate your trading strategy and watch as the computer and software combine to become your trading surrogate. Thinking about using some robust computing abilities? We're talking strategies based on momentum, pivot points, Stochastics, Bollinger Bands, channels, moving averages, company statistics, timings, you name it. Individually or any combination thereof, CoolTrade can design, develop, test and implement it.

Last week, I put the software through the paces. I established some crude trading layouts just to see what they achieved. I got killed, just as I did when I first started trading. A few days later as I developed a bit of trade watching patience, I built a logic that actually broke even on a bad market day. This is a trading concept that easily took me years to even understand that I needed to know how to achieve. By the end of the week, my trading concepts were proving to be profitable. And then the real breakthrough of consistency was starting to be conceived.

All of this testing and learning was accomplished with the real time market. The simulation trading mode is one of the CoolTrade software shining points. The ability to implement trading logic on the fly and see the results almost instantly is wonderful. No spilled milk and crying about it here. Test the theory, review the results, make the changes and get right back into the game.

Another real winner in this product is the link to Interactive Brokers to facilitate your trading. This truly makes the software the solid, hands-off player. Three days ago with limited training and/or true ability to manipulate the software, I made a profitable setup to trade with. Now after chatting with tech support and formulating a plan, the software is becoming a real champion trader for me.

Having spent a few decades working with (and training others) on many software packages, I can easily say that this is potentially one of the most comprehensive out there. And at its current price point, there is no equal. As soon as the product augments and improves itself with back testing capabilities and possibly direct interfacing with other market research products, will there be a reason to use any other?

The ultimate goal of this writer, and the CanyonOlogy server project, is to develop a fully comprehensive trading setup that requires little if any intervention once established. With the implementation of CoolTrade into the fold, that reality is now a step closer." Moses Harris,

Introduction

Bombay Stock Exchange is the oldest stock exchange in Asia with a rich heritage, now spanning three centuries in its 133 years of existence. What is now popularly known as BSE was established as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers' Association" in 1875.BSE is the first stock exchange in the country which obtained permanent recognition (in 1956) from the Government of India under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act 1956. BSE's pivotal and pre-eminent role in the development of the Indian capital market is widely recognized. It migrated from the open outcry system to an online screen-based order driven trading system in 1995. Earlier an Association Of Persons (AOP), BSE is now a corporatised and demutualised entity incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956, pursuant to the BSE (Corporatisation and Demutualisation) Scheme, 2005 notified by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). With demutualisation, BSE has two of world's best exchanges, Deutsche Börse and Singapore Exchange, as its strategic partners.Over the past 133 years, BSE has facilitated the growth of the Indian corporate sector by providing it with an efficient access to resources. There is perhaps no major corporate in India which has not sourced BSE's services in raising resources from the capital market.Today, BSE is the world's number 1 exchange in terms of the number of listed companies and the world's 5th in transaction numbers. The market capitalization as on December 31, 2007 stood at USD 1.79 trillion . An investor can choose from more than 4,700 listed companies, which for easy reference, are classified into A, B, S, T and Z groups.The BSE Index, SENSEX, is India's first stock market index that enjoys an iconic stature , and is tracked worldwide. It is an index of 30 stocks representing 12 major sectors. The SENSEX is constructed on a 'free-float' methodology, and is sensitive to market sentiments and market realities. Apart from the SENSEX, BSE offers 21 indices, including 12 sectoral indices. BSE has entered into an index cooperation agreement with Deutsche Börse. This agreement has made SENSEX and other BSE indices available to investors in Europe and America. Moreover, Barclays Global Investors (BGI), the global leader in ETFs through its iShares® brand, has created the 'iShares® BSE SENSEX India Tracker' which tracks the SENSEX. The ETF enables investors in Hong Kong to take an exposure to the Indian equity market.The first Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) on SENSEX, called "SPIcE" is listed on BSE. It brings to the investors a trading tool that can be easily used for the purposes of investment, trading, hedging and arbitrage. SPIcE allows small investors to take a long-term view of the market.BSE provides an efficient and transparent market for trading in equity, debt instruments and derivatives. It has a nation-wide reach with a presence in more than 359 cities and towns of India. BSE has always been at par with the international standards. The systems and processes are designed to safeguard market integrity and enhance transparency in operations. BSE is the first exchange in India and the second in the world to obtain an ISO 9001:2000 certification. It is also the first exchange in the country and second in the world to receive Information Security Management System Standard BS 7799-2-2002 certification for its BSE On-line Trading System (BOLT).BSE continues to innovate. In recent times, it has become the first national level stock exchange to launch its website in Gujarati and Hindi to reach out to a larger number of investors. It has successfully launched a reporting platform for corporate bonds in India christened the ICDM or Indian Corporate Debt Market and a unique ticker-cum-screen aptly named 'BSE Broadcast' which enables information dissemination to the common man on the street.In 2006, BSE launched the Directors Database and ICERS (Indian Corporate Electronic Reporting System) to facilitate information flow and increase transparency in the Indian capital market. While the Directors Database provides a single-point access to information on the boards of directors of listed companies, the ICERS facilitates the corporates in sharing with BSE their corporate announcements.BSE also has a wide range of services to empower investors and facilitate smooth transactions:

Investor Services: The Department of Investor Services redresses grievances of investors. BSE was the first exchange in the country to provide an amount of Rs.1 million towards the investor protection fund; it is an amount higher than that of any exchange in the country. BSE launched a nationwide investor awareness programme- 'Safe Investing in the Stock Market' under which 264 programmes were held in more than 200 cities.The BSE On-line Trading (BOLT): BSE On-line Trading (BOLT) facilitates on-line screen based trading in securities.
