2) бирж.а) ложный [пустой\] сигнал* (начало повышения или понижения цены, которое кажется началом длительного процесса, но скоро оказывается просто колебательным движением цен)An investor expecting a continuation in the direction of a security's price movement is likely to experience whipsaw in a volatile market.
б) (сделка, которая совершена на основании такого сигнала и является таким образом ошибочной)As you can see, the buy was a whipsaw (point F) and the position was liquidated for a small loss ar point G.
Syn:See:2. как прил.фин. пилообразный*, ломанный*а) (о движении цены, которая то снижается, то повышается; о рынке с таким движением цены)The use of the reversal technique therefore helps to reduce misleading or whipsaw signals and to greatly compress the size of the chart so that more data can be plotted.

In a whipsaw market, being short a put and a call at the same strike price can be extremely painful.

to be [get\] whipsawed — понести убытки из-за пилообразного движения цены
What if the intraday price movement is choppy and volatile? That can "whipsaw" active traders and result in losses. — Но что если дневное движение цены является неустойчивым и постоянно колеблется? Это может "распилить" активных трейдеров и привести к убыткам.
Being whipsawed is a way of saying that soon after entry, there develops an opposite trend direction signal as closing prices whip back and forth or above and below the moving average(s) in question.
Although the option traders were correct about price movement, they were whipsawed by the market's changing estimate of volatility.
When speculators are caught buying at the top in a market movement, they are said to be "whipsawed".
On the other hand, no trader wants to leave good money on the table or get whipsawed. The latter occurs when you enter a trade, and it moves against you.
The trader was whipsawed — losing on both sides of two successive and opposite transactions.

47 EMV-Migration
банк. EVM-миграциия (немного яндексится, но...)!A global move by Visa and MasterCard to employ the Europay, MasterCard, and Visa (EMV) specification has accelerated smart card adoption. For instance, companies in the United Kingdom have already made rapid progression by moving towards smart cards.Frost & Sullivan’s recent study examines the global banking (financial and loyalty) smart card markets. It offers a competitive analysis on the market shares of key participants. The research provides comprehensive market overview with a global analysis. Market drivers and restraints are also included for end-user benefit.Mandatory EMV Migration to Avoid Liability Shift Proves to Be a Major DriverAdopted in 1996, the EMV migration is a result of EMV acceptance as a global standard. With the approaching migration deadline in Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) and the Asia Pacific (APAC) regions as well as the growing need to avoid the liability shift, numerous financial institutions are chip-enabling their cards and terminals. They are also running systems migration exercises as enhanced security measures."""As EMV migration is in progress for banks and merchants, private label card operators too are expected to migrate to smart cards for avoiding the risk of fraud passing on to them,"" says the analyst of this research. ""The EMV migration push impacts the retail loyalty market in a big way, since retailers are pressured to upgrade their point of sale (POS) terminals to accept credit and debit smart cards, failing which, the liability of card fraud is likely to shift to them."""29.11.2006 10:26Тема сообщения: EMV- migration юр.Help, please.1) Что может означать EMV-migration в данном тексте:The company is engaged in the business of EMV-Migration, e-Documents, smart cards applications for projects in Governmental, Financial, Corporate and similar markets.2) Помогите перевести voting interest в следующем предложении:ownership of voting securities or voting interest or otherwise.Очень прошу помочь.
