bsims25 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) The Swiss Franc recently had a rapid rise in it's value, and I never read about any Confusion or chaos in the market place. I wouldn't call it chaos but there was/is a significant negative impact. http://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/jan/15/currency-markets-switzerland-franc Especially in the forex markets.. http://www.forbes.com/fdc/welcome_mjx_mobile.html That was at 30%... Can you imagine 100%, 1,000%, 100,000? Edited February 28, 2015 by bsims25 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Hayduke Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 FYI: I just contacted dinar trade (XOA), they will not exchange, Nor buy back the 50 dinar notes. Did they give a reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrinityeXchange Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 bsims25 you can't use swiss' impact on global markets as a template for iraq. the iqd unlike the swiss franc is offline globally and iraq has no capital market access. its banking systems are only even now becoming modernized. to try to build symmetry here is a moot point in my estimation. for a template, you have to look elsewhere. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLadiesDaddy Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 You're so right Trinity. And I suspect that Chinadowg is also correct about who bsims25 is. It's useless to debate this event. Iraq is Iraq, and there hell bent on going there own path. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djorgie Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 really for us to debate about whether or not there will be no bump, a slight bump, a small bump or a big bump prior to moving from a rigid to a flexible exchange regime is a waste of effort team. NO ONE KNOWS and if 1 out of 20 of us are correct, it will do absolutely nothing for us. the important thing is for us to identify what it is that iraq is actually doing so that we can properly prepare. any actions of ours are all reactionary to what the CBI decides to do and so it behooves us get solid information on what they are about to do. from my research it looks like a float is coming. You are right about that! No need to worry about the bumps. Being prepared for any possible outcome should be priority. Many of us have been aware that a float was just as possible as anything else. We just hope for/believe in a better outcome is all. I am interested on your take about what they may do with the other lower denoms regarding a float. I myself have many of the 250 and 500 notes which make up the majority of what I hold and if they were to do away with those as well prior to a float or rate change I would for obvious reasons be disapointed. What do you think they will do? I guess I could try and exchange all of my lower denoms for 25,000 notes but, who would actually do that? I purchased all of my dinar from what used to be Dinar Trade so, guess I could start there. The 50 notes are just a small loss so no big deal but, if i can help it I don't want to lose the 250 and 500 notes on top of it. Also, there was mention that another reason they got rid of the 50 note is because they may cause some confusion between them (50 notes) and the 500 notes so, if they stick to that then it wouldn't make sense to get rid of the 500 notes. IDK... brain is just doing it's thang! Thanks again for your always intelligent and thoughtful perspective TX. Blessings in Yahushua 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think they will do? i am inclined to think that any insignificant lower denom has a high chance of being whacked. the problem we face is lack of intimacy with iraq's marketplace. we simply do not know how often notes like the 250 is circulated because we are not there. who knew that the 50 note pretty much never saw the light of day in iraq almost like the penny in the States?? man-o-man this speculation game is a piece of work isn't it?! many of us purchased lower denoms so that we could hedge against a lop and then we look up and face the risk of having to abandon that strategy entirely. best i can say my friend is to get your strategy together in case they call in the 200/500 notes. have your backdoor already unlocked and ready to open. that is the best we can do. i only have a few of the low denoms so i am willing to just eat it but if i had a lot, i would definitely be looking at a contingency plan so i don't get caught flat footed.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yota691 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 So , if it does float, how do we properly prepare? Won't we STILL be watching The CBI rate and looking into new news? Just saying. Not Too much will change. We will still be praising yota and all who bring great news Just hang tight...it won't take 3 more years...the demand will drive it up unprecedentedly...and the next 2 months should be telling...and No disrespect...I'm not here for praising..this is not about me or you...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb45 Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 I'm just afraid that they are going to give us a small window to cash in on a low float and that will be our only option. Then after we have already cashed ours in we have to sit and watch it sky rocket and be sick to our stomachs. That's just a fear of mine not anything to support that at all.
