For those who have undergone a bankruptcy process, getting finance can seem almost impossible. Truth is that when a lender considers an application, a credit history stained with default or bankruptcy can scare him away. However, you can always obtain finance with the aid of the equity you have built on your home.
Anyone who tried to obtain a loan after bankruptcy knows that chances are that he will get declined. Bankruptcy is the worst stain that can be found on a credit report and most lenders will not even consider an application after finding out that the borrower has gone through a bankruptcy process.
Basic Facts About Bankruptcy And Loans
There are some facts that you should be well aware of before applying for a bankruptcy loan. The main thing you should know is that lenders cannot legally provide you with finance if you are currently undergoing a bankruptcy process. In order to get finance your bankruptcy has to have been discharged already.
Moreover, most lenders will not consider a loan application if your bankruptcy has been discharged in the last two years. This is due to the fact that lenders believe that that is the time needed for someone to fully recover in every sense from a bankruptcy process and that only then an applicant is reliable enough to risk lending to him.
Even if bankruptcy is the worst stain you can have, other stains on your credit report may make a lender reconsider your application regardless if he has decided to bypass your bankruptcy. So, keeping a clean credit history is essential if you want to get approved after bankruptcy.
How Equity Can Aid You After Bankruptcy
Equity loans are secured on the same asset as a mortgage loan. Thus, the lender has the guarantee that you will repay your loan or else you would suffer repossession of the property that guarantees the home equity loan. This greatly reduces the risk involved in the financial transaction and thus, bankruptcy is not such a big deal.
The risk is the key factor when it comes to lending and a bankruptcy most certainly cries out “RISK” but the fact that these loans have collateral implies that the risk is reduced and that the lender will recover his money one way or another which in turn, offers the applicant to get finance even with a past bankruptcy.
Bankruptcy And Interest Rate
Do not expect however that even if equity aids you in bypassing the approval problem, it will help you lower the interest rate charged by the lender. Truth is that though home equity loans usually carry the lowest rates on the market, given that you have a past bankruptcy on your credit report, you will be facing high interest rate loans regardless of this fact.
Moreover, the interest rate charged for bankruptcy loans based on equity has an interest rate that is quite similar to the rate charged for unsecured loans. Thus, be prepared to face higher monthly payments, longer repayment programs or both. The income requirement will also be essential for loan approval.

In longer-term investing strategies, position sizing is a bit more complicated and may depend on the strategy at play. In this section, we will focus on sizing positions for short-term trades.

What video editing/recording software do you use Dave?
Also, from your experience, is there any difference in execution time of a “large position” vs. a 1k position. thanks.
hi,
can you actually establish ANY position size you desire. Let’s say I’ve got $50,000,000, in an account. Would it be possible for me to establish a position size, say 10,000k or $1,000 per pip, 50,000k or $5,000? If these position sizes are possible, would the specific currency pair’s liquidity affect transactions? Thanks.
Hi, many brokerage firms including FXCM will allow you to trade in sizes of 1K or smaller however even at 10K the value of a one point move in the market is only $1. Since the market is not very volatile most consider that trading pretty small. Hope that helps. Dave
This will probably be answered later on but does this mean that I must trade in the tens and hundred of thousands of dollars? I thought the advantage was being able to trade small?
