American Dollar Doing Shitty


Recommended Posts

Can someone who knows something about the situation with the american dollar please give me some advice. I have a lot of money on online poker sites and i cash out my money under my mom's name who lives in canada. So I'm losing lots of money because of how crappy the dollar is doing. So what advice would you give me? Because from what I read on google and various sites is that the american dollar is going to go on a big decline. Please no stupid replys...i want serious info..ty

GaYaled,If you are concerned about the dollar, you can always hedge your home currency against it. Since you are in Israel, I'll assune it is the shekel. What you are buying is technically a "put option" ... the right to sell US dollars for a fixed amount vs the other currency. If the dollar moves lower than the fixed price, you exercise the option. If it doesn't you let it expire. In other words it insures you against a drop in the dollar.However, as with any insurance, there is a cost. Unless you are moving large dollars, it is generally not worth it.Find a local broker and tell him you want to hedge against a drop in the US$. He will be able to tell you how much it will cost.Jben

Look, its certainly possible the dollar will decline further. It might not. You could hedge your position in US$$ as the previous poster suggested...but wow, you'd need a lot of cash in there to make it worthwhile (for the hassle alone). More importantly, if you have that much cash just sitting there, withdraw it. After all, if the dollar falls, you can redeposit at a better exchange rate. If you are referring to money you are planning on winning, but haven't won yet, you aren't really losing anything.

I was holding as much as I could in $CAD for a while, but I needed to make a deposit to reload my bonus account.There's not too much you can do about it though, however, now would be a good time to sell any $CAD you hold for $USD, once the $USD strengthens again, you can convert back to $CAD and make some money, in terms of the $CAD.It really doesn't matter though, because in relation to the USD, it's still the same, and the USD is too big to really worry about stuff like this. It's influence on every other currency is too big.I don't know what I'm talking about.

Hey, I don't blame him one bit for his attitude. The way the US government is wasting OUR money, I wouldn't be giving them a nickel more than I have to to stay out of prison. If they can't find my hidden income, **** 'em!
