Does this phrase sound familiar?

"Watch the downside, and the upside will take care of itself."

That's what John Paulson's mentor and former boss, Marty Gruss, constantly drilled into his head.

Or, to put it in the words of Warren Buffett, "Rule 1: Never lose money.  Rule 2: Never forget rule No. 1."

What is the best way for you to minimize your downside and launch your success rate – and your profits – through the roof?

Actually, there are several ways… and two of them are absolutely crucial.  They defy human nature, but are absolute MUSTS for trading success.

In order to achieve success you MUST practice sound risk management by doing at least two things in particular: Continue reading "Two Crucial Keys for Trading"

The battle continues

The battle between the Bulls and the Bears continues with negative news pushing the market lower and positive earnings pushing the market higher and helping the Bulls.

So who's going to win?

In this short video, I show you two items that are important in this market. I also point out where support is  and why this is a crucial level to watch this coming week.

Our Trade Triangle technology is neutral on the SP500 but it could turn any day now and this is what I want to share with you today.

Saturday Success Story - Rajbir, Nevada

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—we promise objective and unbiased recommendations not available from brokers.

Here's great news from a member...

"My wife and I are retired, are not active traders, and are recent members. However, I wish we had joined MarketClub before this bear market began. Being corporate employees all our lives, most of our savings are in our respective 401(k) plans which were decimated in 2008. Finally, I could not take it any longer and went to all cash in the 4th quarter of 2008.

However, Marketclub’s Trade Triangles gave me the courage to reinvest again in the beginning of April, thereby recouping some of our losses. Without MarketClub’s input, I would still be cowering in money-market funds. Going forward, I propose to give particular attention to the monthly Trade Triangles which indicate the major trend." ~ Rajbir K., Nevada

Severe Russian drought forces grain export ban - Moscow, Russia (CNN) -- As Russia reels from the worst drought in nearly 40 years ...

The wheat market is the hottest market in the world right now due to severe drought in Russia. But how did MarketClub's "Trade Triangle" technology do in this rocket-to-the-stars market?

MarketClub's "Trade Triangle" technology received a "go long" wheat signal over 6 weeks ago. Wheat was trading at $5.17 back then. It is now trading at over $8.00 a bushel.

Wheat is one of the six key components in MarketClub's World Cup Portfolio (WCP - formerly World Commodity Portfolio). In the twelve quarters we have tracked this portfolio, wheat has been profitable in 11 out of those twelve quarters. This quarter looks to be a bonanza with profits in excess of $11,000 per contract.

In the this video I show you the move, the "Trade Triangles," and the results. It is a not to be missed video.

How To Take Advantage of Price Momentum

Today's guest is Chris Vermeulen, but most people know him as simply, "The Gold And Oil Guy". Chris has been trading for over 10 years, fine tuning his trading strategy year after year and continually improving timing, entry and exit points as the market evolves. Chris's latest strategy allows him to take advantage of intraday price action without even looking at intraday charts! I thought this was an interesting concept and wanted to share it on the Trader's Blog. Be sure to comment with your thoughts and visit Chris at TheGoldandOilGuy.com.

Most traders just don’t have the time to track the market on an intraday basis. Crazy thing is, I found a way that takes advantage of the intraday price action while never needing to look at a single intraday chart. Now we can swing trade using the daily charts but get the added performance of watching the intraday chart price action. What also makes this strategy exciting is that it works with virtually any time frame, though each time frame and investment vehicle will require its own custom settings in order to track properly.

I call this strategy a Momentum Trend Crossover. It’s based on 2 moving averages that use intraday, day, or intra-bar price action to calculate its value. Also, a Donchian channel to track recent highs/lows for protective stop placement.

Below are three charts showing how it looks and works. Continue reading "How To Take Advantage of Price Momentum"
