Saturday Success Story - Harold, New York

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...

"MarketClub’s charts give a clear picture of the momentum of a stock, which is a key factor to decide whether to buy or sell the stock. I focus on stocks which are given a value of +100 and check out these stocks with the VectorVest product. If both MarketClub and Vector Vest agree that this stock is a buy, I buy that stock. If the stock on MarketClub falls below +85, I sell the stock. When I put my cash into the market through my broker, I am confident that my actions have a strong potential for a successful trade." ~ Harold T., New York

A lesson in Fibonacci trading

We have had a number of requests to do a video on Fibonacci retracements and how they can be used in trading.

I put together this five minute lesson on Fibonacci trading and how I use this important tool to determine turning points in the market. Like all tools, it has its flaws and should be used with other complementary tools like our "Trade Triangle" technology.

I hope you enjoy this brief lesson and it helps you understand how to use this important tool.

As always our videos are free to watch and there are no registration requirements. I hope you have the time to comment on our blog and tell us if this video helped you understand this important trading tool or how you're already using it.

All the best,

This past week I had the great privilege of enjoying lunch with a fellow North Carolinian, Dr. Van Tharp, the world-renown trading coach and author of some of my favorite trading books: Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom and Super Trader. While trying not to ogle over him like a star-struck teenager meeting his favorite musician for the first time, my mind raced with the many pearls of trading wisdom he has espoused over the years.

Forex should not be foreign to you

It's the biggest market in the world and is traded 24 hours a day, 6 days a week, and therefore one that is impossible to ignore. I'm speaking, of course, about the forex market.

The question is, is this the tail that's wagging the dog? Meaning, is the forex market, mainly the euro, dictating the trend in American and European equity markets.

Using High Frequency Trades to Your Advantage

Today's guest, Michele (Mish) Schneider has gotten such a phenomenal response from Trader's Blog readers in the past, that we've decided to bring her back and share her take on High Frequency Trading, or HFT, plays. You can leave any questions or comments here on our blog, but be sure to visit Mish on her site, Market Gauge, as well.

Not too long ago, the buzz around the street was all about High Frequency Trading Models and the possible legislation that would be enforced to try and quell them.  What is High Frequency Trading (HFT)? According to an interview with Sal Arnuk Partner of Themis Trading LLC printed June 14th, 2010 in the High Frequency Trading Review—yes, there is such a publication—“I guess you can call HFT any strategy that involves high speed execution of thousands of orders per second, or in a short time period. I don’t even want to handicap it by calling it thousands as some people can do a million.” Continue reading "Using High Frequency Trades to Your Advantage"
