Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Thursday, the 29th of November.

POWERBALL WINNERS NEED NOT APPLY!

I consider myself very lucky that I did not win the lottery last night. First off, I didn't even buy a ticket. Secondly, the odds are astronomically against any one person winning. If you are like me, you like to have the odds on your side. That's why I like Trade Triangle technology. If you want to see some great returns, look no further than MarketClub's World Cup Portfolio. Five years of solid double and triple digit returns* in a simple portfolio that anyone can manage. The signals are available the night before for all MarketClub members.

You only have to look at the recent moves in the markets to see that MarketClub's Trade Triangle technology works. Continue reading "How to win the Lottery everyday …" →

How to Play Your Gold Stocks Now

Posted on by The INO.com Team

After a year or more of depressed prices, gold and silver stocks reversed with a vengeance. GDX (the ETF proxy for the Gold Miners Index) was up in just two months (August and September). Those who followed our lead and bought or averaged down this summer have profited handsomely. It's been a fun ride, and I'm convinced we'll see many more surges like this before it's all over.

What was perhaps more important about the surge in gold stocks, though, was the leverage they demonstrated, which is one of the primary reasons we invest in them. Here's a comparison of GDX to GLD from August 1 to November 1.

This chart shows the advantage of building your position on dips. It lowers your cost basis and takes leverage to a higher gear. Continue reading "How to Play Your Gold Stocks Now" →

The Yin and Yang of the "FISCAL CLIFF"

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere, Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with a mid-day up-date for Wednesday the 28th of November.

THE FISCAL CLIFF QUASHES CONSUMER CONFIDENCE!

Consumer confidence, which jumped to its best levels in four and a half years, is taking a back seat today to the "Fiscal Cliff", which is like the 800LB gorilla in the room. Depending what the politicians do and don't do, which is a non-predictable item at the moment, the "Fiscal Cliff" is going to be the Yin and Yang of the financial markets for the next several months. I would not hold my breath waiting for politicians to make a decision quickly on the "Fiscal Cliff" as both parties are being held hostage by their own parties' far right and far left wings.

THE FISCAL CLIFF AND THE EQUITIES MARKETS

Based on our Trade Triangle technology, we still believe that the trend is negative for the equity markets. We expect to see the equity markets trade sideways before taking another downturn. Everything is going to be predicated on the "Fiscal Cliff". Continue reading "The Yin and Yang of the "FISCAL CLIFF"" →

Short & Intermediate View of the Market

Posted on by The INO.com Team

The US indexes predictably rallied during the happy holiday week, with Friday putting a nice punctuation on the bullish proceedings.  In fact, I caught myself looking at the TECL, NUGT and individual gold miner positions in my trading account with a big dumb smile on my face.  Then I sold them all.  Sidetracking for a moment, I have found that I need to get back to more active trading so I am going to further fund this account and ruthlessly trade this market in a discreet account for pure trading.

Back on the post’s theme, the holiday volume was suspect to say the least.  I have a preferred macro theme for the intermediate term however, and it is bullish for an extended rally pending a confirmation of, or more likely a cleaning out of last week’s bullish enthusiasm.
