Candle Sticks, Gold and a Trader’s Journey

March 24, 2010 By

Consistent, successful trading requires a systematic approach that you are 100% confident in.  When talking to today’s guest blogger and INO TV author Gary Wagner of “Forex Gold Forecast” a few days ago about recent trades, it amazed me how confident he was in his own technical analysis. I thought it would make a good article for the Trader’s Blog so I had him write down a few thoughts on trading and how he has utilized his own system.

—————————————————————————————————————————–

Effective trading is a science, but it is also an art. Choosing the scientific models (technical indicators) you wish to combine to create your trading methodology requires a journey. A journey over time, through which by trial and error you will arrive at an approach that is successful. You need to assemble a toolbox of technical indicators like an artist assembles brushes. Just as each brush creates a different effect, each technical indicator reveals distinctive information about the market. Knowing which technical brushes to use and when to use them is essential. It will provide the trader with the tools needed to create an effective systematic approach. [Read more...]

Traders Toolbox: Momentum Revisited…

March 23, 2010 By

Trader's Toolbox

At MarketClub our mission is to help you become a better trader. Our passion is creating superior trading tools to help you achieve your goals — no matter which way the markets move — with objective and unbiased recommendations not available from brokers.

The Trader’s Toolbox posts are just another free resource from MarketClub.

—

“MarketClub is known for our “Trade Triangle” technology. However, if you have used other technical analysis indicators previously, you can use a combination of the studies and other techniques in conjunction with the “Trade Triangles” to further confirm trends.

Momentum measures the change in a commodity’s price with time. M = Pc-Pn where M = momentum, Pc = current period’s price and Pn = price n periods ago.

The length of time used for the prior period is a matter of personal preference and time horizon of the trader. A narrow window of less than five periods back would be short-term in nature while six to nine periods would be considered intermediate; 10 or more would be a longer time perspective….”

Luck Of The Irish & The Indices

March 18, 2010 By

I wanted to make this video as the indices are getting a little St. Patrick’s Day luck. Like a great many traders; I am a great believer in getting all the luck I can get. Hopefully, the luck of the Irish will roll off on you and you remain lucky all year.

Today we’re going to be looking at the three major indices here in the U.S. The first one will be the Dow Jones, followed by S&P 500, and the NASDAQ. All three indices have had remarkable moves since their original buy signals that were generated in 2009.

In 2009 we had the following signals using our monthly Trade Triangle technology. If you have been following my videos for any length of time, you know that we use our monthly Trade Triangles for the major trend in the indices. Starting with the DOW, we had a signal that the trend has reversed to the upside on May 4, 2009 at 8315.07. The S&P 500 also gave a trend reversal signal on that day at 888.70. The NASDAQ was the last to join the party as it gave a buy signal on April 16 at 1665.63.

In this new video, I share with you some of the ideas I have on where we are in market terms in all three indices.

As always, our videos are free to watch and there are no registration requirements. I would really like to hear back from you in regards to your thoughts on this video. Watch this video.

Your comments are welcome.

All the best,

Buffett’s “Dirty” Little Secret

March 17, 2010 By

Warren Buffett is always a hot topic and today I’ve asked Greg Roy, who has a unique opinion on Buffet’s strategies, to share what he calls “Buffett’s dirty little secret”. Whether you agree or disagree,  Greg will certainly leave you with something to think about. Whatever your stance, we encourage you to comment below and dig deeper into Greg’s reasoning with his latest report.

====================================================================

They’re missing the point.

Nine out of ten “gurus” who tell you to “invest like Buffett” preach that you should “buy great companies at a discount.”

And yes, on the face, that’s “what Buffett does” – but completely overlooks the real secret to Buffett’s investing genius.

I’ll be the first to admit I’m no “Buffophile” – some of the blind adoration heaped on him in some quarters I find not only distasteful but propagates dangerous attitudes about investing and trading. But I do think he’s as close to a genius as any investor in recent history.

Because Buffett is playing a completely different game than everyone else.
