Today's Video Update: Are You Planning On Buying An Electric Car?

May 17, 2013 By 1 Comment

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 17th of May.

Tesla Soars As Excitement Builds For Electric Cars
This week, Tesla Motors (NASDAQ:TSLA) soared as investors rushed into buying shares of America's only electric car company. Shares of Tesla jumped 19.72% for the week as of this writing and are closing in on new high ground. Of course, this must make Elon Musk and investors in this stock very, very happy. You may want to take a look at my earlier video on Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) here.

Gold Loses Big Time This Week
The price of gold plummeted this week with losses of over 5% as investors jumped out of this once precious metal and into US and Japanese stocks. If gold closes where it is currently trading at $1,363 on the spot market, it will represent a new low weekly close for the year. Such a close would indicate further downside pressure for this metal. Technically, we cannot rule out a test of the $1300 level. [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: The Beat Goes On

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 15th of May.

Google Music?
Word on the street is that Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) is set to announce today a new streaming music service, one that will compete against Pandora and Spotify. Once again, it seems as though Google wants to be everything to everybody, and whether Google can compete in the music business and be successful remains to be seen. Should you buy or sell Google? If you haven't watched my Google trading video on how to trade Google successfully, you can watch it here.

The Beat Goes On
Stock prices hit a high yesterday as more and more disenfranchised short sellers are covering their shorts and exiting this market. So far, this market has not yielded to any downside pressure or correction to the surprise of many professional traders. What I do know, is that trends tend to persist longer than expected, and that they don't ring a bell at the top of any market. In a recent blog poll, we asked readers what they thought of the market: [Read more...]

Why Futures for Stock Traders?

May 15, 2013 By 1 Comment

By: Leslie Burton

Whether you have traded a stock account for years or have just begun stock trading, you may have mixed results. Perhaps you have taken a course or you are simply well-read in your investment choices. The questions that every investor, trader and wealth manager must ask are, Am I diversified enough to produce a smooth equity curve with my portfolio? and Will this portfolio be weighted well enough to stand worst-case-scenario market conditions? If you hesitate to answer those questions, then perhaps taking a look at other products may broaden your knowledge and enhance your current investment portfolio.

The beauty of trading stocks online is that it keeps overhead costs down by trading out of your home. You will have immediate access to market information along with your account to place trades as you check the stock earnings, operating costs and any news that may impact the company. Typically, the cost of doing business is your low commission rate, use of your home computer and any subscription material to keep you informed. Most trading occurs in expanded hours, giving the investor time to trade whether it is a full-time or secondary job. The online platform allows the trader convenient access to the funds in his/her account readily. [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: Forget Stocks, the Name of the Game is the Value of Money

May 13, 2013 By Leave a Comment

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 13th of May.

The Aussie Dollar Crashes
Today we are going to take a look at the Aussie dollar to understand why it closed last Friday at its lowest levels since June 2012. This market clearly is on the defensive as Australia re-tools its economy with a lower priced currency. By lowering its currency, Australia hopes, like Japan, to jump start its economy. A less expensive Aussie dollar should help make Australian exports more competitive and more attractive, particularly to China, which is its main trading partner.

This particular trade could be one of the best trades of 2013. If you haven't seen last week's Aussie Dollar video, you can watch it here.

The Trend Continues In The Yen
The US dollar moved to its best levels in five years against the Japanese Yen, as the Yen reached 102 early this morning in overseas trading. The Japanese Yen has been on the defensive against the US Dollar since last October, when our Monthly Trade Triangle kicked in and the Dollar began to accelerate its gains against the Yen. I believe that this market, which is very overbought, is getting close to a target zone around the 103.00 level. I would now expect the 100.00 level to act as a floor for the US dollar.

Today's Video Update: Is The Market Running Out Of Gas?

May 10, 2013 By 2 Comments

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

Running Out Of Gas Or Is Complacency Setting In?
The market has two enemies, gravity and complacency. It would appear as though complacency in this market is becoming more and more of the norm, which is a definite danger and warning sign. The type of complacent attitude we are seeing tends to give birth to the market's second enemy, gravity. Earlier this week, we produced a short video explaining how a simple technical formation known as a "parallel channel" may be indicating that we are close to an interim top for this market.

Today's Video Update: Is a Parallel Channel Indicating a Top For This Market?

May 8, 2013 By 8 Comments

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 8th of May.

Is a Parallel Channel Indicating a Top For This Market?
One of the biggest enemies of investors is being too complacent. I feel that this malady is very much the case in today's market. I believe investors should be concerned and should be using money management stops on all of their long positions. We have not seen any type of significant pullback since the recent low on April 18th. In today's daily update, we are going to be looking at a parallel channel, which could be marking a new term top for this market. The parallel channel started in mid November of last year and has remarkably contained most of the action for the past six months. I think you'll find this video to be particularly interesting today.

Today's Video Update: Stocks Subdued After Record Week

May 6, 2013 By Leave a Comment

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 6th of May.

Stocks are little changed after record week
The stock market cleared new milestones Friday after the government reported that employers added more workers. However, that hasn't translated into a strong Monday open as investors turned more cautious, focusing once again on the problems facing the global economy. Though growth in the U.S. is holding up well, it is slowing in China. The 17 country Eurozone remains in recession and unemployment there has been hitting a series of record highs.

On Investor's Minds:
United States - homegrown terrorists
North Korea - an agent for China?
Europe - ITALY has a government. YEAH!
The FED - OMG do they know what they are doing?
May 19th – Debt ceiling suspension expire

Every Success,

Today's Video Update: Jobs Report Sends Market To All-Time Highs

May 3, 2013 By Leave a Comment

Hello traders everywhere! Jeremy Lutz here,  with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 3rd of May.

U.S. Employers Add 165K Jobs
U.S. employers added 165,000 jobs in April, and hiring was much stronger in the previous two months than the government first estimated. The job increases helped reduce the unemployment rate from 7.6 percent to a four-year low of 7.5 percent.

The Labor Department report is seen as a reassuring sign that the U.S. job market is improving despite higher taxes and government spending cuts that took effect this year.

Watch Today's Video Update Here

The government revised up its estimate of job gains in February and March by a combined 114,000. It now says employers added 332,000 jobs in February and 138,000 in March. The economy has created an average of 208,000 jobs a month from November through April  above the 138,000 added in the previous six months. [Read more...]

Today's Video Update: What's Going To Kill This Bull Market?

May 1, 2013 By

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 1st of May.

Fed Reports at 2pm ET
Today at 2pm, the Fed will announce its intentions with its bond buying program. I am expecting the Fed's decision will remain pretty much unchanged.

What's Going To Kill This Bull Market?
I would not expect to see any groundbreaking news coming out of today's Fed announcement. However, the Fed is going to be the one that kills this improbable bull market. It would appear that most people are still not sure the economy is good and corporate America is certainly on that same band wagon. Corporate America has cut expenses to the bone and we don't believe they're going to have any more room to cut costs. Any future growth is going to have to come through growing profits, which is at the moment, a difficult proposition. Thank goodness for technical analysis and our Trade Triangle technology, which has captured most of the move in the indices and major stocks. [Read more...]
