We see leadership potential in people who... -> speak more (regardless of what they say) -> appear confident (regardless of competence) -> are perpetually busy (regardless of what they're doing) Action Fallacy The mistaken belief that leadership is characterized by energy and movement in the face of harrowing odds. "Since we reward people who are good in crises (and ignore people who are such good managers that there are very few crises), [people] soon learn to seek out (or reframe situations as) crises." -- Keith Grint

Carry trade opportunities arise when investors borrow money in a low-interest-rate currency and invest it in a higher-interest-rate currency, aiming to profit from the interest rate differential. Here’s how you can find and evaluate carry trade opportunities: Identify Interest Rate Differentials: Research Central Bank Rates: Start by looking at the central bank interest rates for various countries. High-yielding currencies typically have higher interest rates set by their central banks, while low-yielding currencies have lower rates. Currency Pairs: Focus on currency pairs where the interest rate differential is significant. For example, if the central bank rate in Japan is 0.1% and in Australia is 4.1%, the AUD/JPY pair could present a carry trade opportunity. Analyze Currency Stability: Currency Trends: Examine historical data and trends to determine if the high-yielding currency is relatively stable or appreciating. A stable or appreciating high-yield currency is more desirable in a carry trade. Political and Economic Factors: Consider the economic stability and geopolitical factors that might affect the currencies involved. Monitor Swap Rates: Broker’s Swap Rates: Check the swap rates or rollover rates offered by your broker for holding positions overnight. Positive swap rates indicate that you will earn interest by holding a long position in the high-yielding currency. Comparison Tools: Use financial tools or websites that compare swap rates across different brokers and currency pairs. Evaluate Risk Factors: Exchange Rate Volatility: High volatility can erase any gains from interest rate differentials. Use technical analysis to assess potential volatility. Interest Rate Changes: Stay updated on economic news that could lead to changes in interest rates, which can impact the carry trade. Utilize Financial Tools and Indicators: Interest Rate Differential Indicators: Some trading platforms offer indicators that help identify interest rate differentials and potential carry trade opportunities. Economic Calendars: Track economic releases and central bank meetings that could influence interest rates and currency values. Simulation and Backtesting: Historical Analysis: Use backtesting to simulate past carry trade strategies based on historical interest rates and currency movements to understand potential outcomes. Risk Management Tools: Implement stop-loss orders and other risk management strategies to protect against adverse currency movements. Stay Informed: Financial News: Follow global economic news and reports from central banks, as well as market analyses, to stay informed about changes in interest rates and other factors affecting currencies. Expert Analysis: Read reports and analysis from financial experts who specialize in forex and carry trades. Consider Alternative Markets: Emerging Markets: Sometimes, emerging market currencies offer higher interest rates, though they may come with additional risks. Cross-Currency Trades: Explore opportunities beyond major currency pairs, such as cross-currency pairs, where interest rate differentials might be favorable. By combining these strategies, you can identify potential carry trade opportunities while also managing the associated risks. ...

Interesting and enlightening video. I often think I know why I do what I do, being able to give a convincing and logical explanation on a certain action which I happened to perform. Under the same conditions at another time and place I may very possibly choose to perform some other actions, and I can very well be able to give an equally convincing explanation. Do you really know why you do what you do? ...
