Today's Video Update: To Taper Or Not To Taper?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 19th of June.

To Taper Or Not To Taper? That's My Question For Ben Bernanke
That is the question on everyone's mind today as the Fed kicks off its meeting at 2 PM, eastern time. Everyone is probably also wondering if Ben Bernanke is going to run for another term. I doubt that Ben Bernanke will want to run for another term, because whoever inherits the current Bernanke mess, created by QE1, QE2 and QEInfinity, is going to have to unwind this trade and that is going to be one colossal mess for everyone. The modus operandi in the USA seems to be that we jump into everything from wars to QEs without figuring out an exit plan. What the market wants to see now, is how the Fed is going to extricate itself from its current bond buying gluttony. Now, that's going to lend itself to some real market opportunities in the future.

Today's Video Update: Coming Soon To A Gas Station Near You

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 14th of June.

Coming Soon To A Gas Station Near You
Today we witnessed a massive move to new highs in crude oil, pushing all our Trade Triangles into the green, indicating that higher prices are likely ahead for this commodity. This translates into higher prices at the pump for everyone in America. The question of course will be, is this going to create a problem for the fragile economic recovery? This market has created a large technical formation that we will be discussing in today's video.

Equity Markets Are Choppy
The war between the Bulls and the Bears continues this Friday with no clear trend direction. The longer-term trend continues up, while the intermediate-term trend is indicating weakness. This translates to a neutral market position for us. If you are using our Trade Triangle technology, you can quickly see which markets are headed higher, which ones are neutral, and which are falling. We will be running through all the major indices in today's video. [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: Choppy Markets Reflect Investor Anxiety

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 12th of June.

Choppy Markets Reflect Investor Anxiety
It probably feels like you are on a bicycle peddling very fast and not going anywhere. Here it is a week later and the DOW (INDEX:DJI) is basically unchanged. In the meantime, we have witnessed many up and down days. It seems there is a war going on right now between the bulls and bears and the stakes are very high.

The bulls clearly see the Fed as their friend, and providing that the Fed continues to pump money into the system, they have a good argument. You can't fight unlimited printing presses. The bears on the other hand, don't believe the economy is going so well, not just here in States, but they are also seeing a global slowdown both in Europe and Asia. The bears argue that if the Fed begins to taper its purchases, which now total $85 billion a month, the market is likely to tank. The old trading adage here is that the markets "slide faster than they glide," meaning markets go down much faster than they go up. Currently our Trade Triangles are neutral on the market, indicating that you should be on the sidelines at the moment. I need to see this war between the bulls and the bears resolved before I commit to one trend or the other. [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: Apple's Big Day And Waze To Go Google

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 10th of June.

Apple's Big Day
Today, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) kicks off its developers conference in San Francisco. This is the day that the Apple-faithful have been patiently waiting for. It is widely speculated that Apple will announce IOS 7, a new operating system, and perhaps some other upgrades. No new disruptive technologies are expected to be announced at this conference, but with Apple you never know. One of the presenters today is Sir Jonathan Paul "Jony" Ive, who is the genius designer for many of Apple's most recent products. In my opinion, Jony was the main creative force behind Steve Jobs. The new operating system is rumored to be cleaner, simpler and “flatter”, moving away from the skeuomorphic design. Apple is also expected to announce a new music service that's going to go head-to-head with the likes of Pandora, Spotify, and other online streaming music platforms. Let's put everything in perspective, Apple has 500 million users, Pandora has less than 70 million. Mathematically, this gives Apple a huge advantage in terms of creating a really successful, new income-producing music service. Initially iRadio, as the name is rumored to be, will be supported by ads, and eventually it will end up becoming a recurring revenue product. I will be covering Apple in today's daily update.

Today's Video Update: Is The 2013 Bull Market Over?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 7th of June.

Is The 2013 Bull Market In Stocks Over?
2013 will go down in the history books as the fastest start of the any year since 1998. Having said that, there are some challenges in the market right now as we have recently seen the market tumble 3.6%. We also discussed the slowdown in Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT) and Target (NYSE:TGT) stores, as both companies missed their forecasted earnings. All signs that the economy is slowing down. Currently, the economy hasn't picked up to the point where the Fed can abandon its monthly $85 billion purchase program. That could also lend to some stability in the marketplace. In today's video, I am going to examine how we see the market and how today's close could determine the trend for the coming week.

Early Warning System And The Yen
The Japanese Yen has strengthened against the US dollar to the surprise of many traders. Having a non-emotional approach to the market, like the Trade Triangles, can pay off consistently. If you haven't seen my "Early Warning System" video you may watch it here. [Read more...]

The 52-Week Rule
I learned this rule many years ago from a trader named Bill, when I was trading in the pits of the Chicago Mercantile where I was a member. Over the years, it has proven to have a high degree of success. Just remember, there are no guarantees made or implied that this approach works with every trade. I suggest you watch it, paper trade it, and draw your own conclusions. Here are the three rules you need to trade "The 52-Week New Highs on Friday Rule": [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: The Golden Boy Does It Again

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 28th of May.

The Trend, The Trend , The Trend
I've have talked about the power of market trends for quite some time, and how our Trade Triangle technology has nailed the current move in the stock market. Ask yourself this one question, would you stand in front of a speeding train that was heading right for you? Of course not, that is why it is important to never underestimate the power of trends. Trends tend to persist longer than most people expect. Currently the Trade Triangles have been in this bull market since the first quarter of 2009. I continue to keep a vigilant lookout for a reversal, but as of today that reversal has not been happened. I'll will be watching our trusted Trade Triangles very closely and reporting the first indication that trends are changing in the major indices. [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: If The Economy Is So Good, Why Did This Happen?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 24th of May.

If The Economy Is So Good, Why Did This Happen?
We have been talking about this all week... Why did these bedrock companies, Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT), Target (NYSE:TGT) and Sears (NASDAQ:SHLD), all miss their earnings estimates? Is this an early warning signal that the economy is really not as healthy as the Fed and everyone else would like to see? We will be examining all three stocks today. [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: Target And Lowe's Both Miss... Who's Next?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 22nd of May.

Target and Lowe's Both Miss
Both Target (NYSE:TGT) and Lowe's (NYSE:LOW) missed their estimated earnings this morning and disappointed Wall Street. Both companies blamed the miss on bad spring weather. I guess you have to point to something when you miss what everyone is expecting. We will be looking at Target and Lowe's today. [Read more...]
