Saturday Success Story - Hal, Connecticut

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...

"I've been a user of MarketClub over the past year and have enjoyed the service a great deal....using the Trade Triangle methodology, I have been able to successfully navigate my way thru severe bear markets while also enjoying profitable trades during bull runs as well. I like to trade both oil and other commodities and by using the Trade Triangles I find I can put on profitable trades letting my winners run while removing loosing positions before they become toxic. Another really nice feature of MarketClub for me are the short audio reviews of key markets, with suggestions on possible price movement around key support and resistant zones.

The Trade Triangles provide the discipline to allow me to show consistent profits while reducing my risks....and finally, some of the recent additions to the charts used with the service gives me a more flexibility in how I combine price action and technical analysis. By adding the Talking Chart review you can listen in on a short review of any chart of any security you wish to trade; pretty cool! At the end of the day however, it helps me make money and that is my # 1 driver!" ~ Hal B., Connecticut

The Game of Buy-and-Hold: It Is Over Forever

Hi, this is Adam Hewison and I have just returned from vacation in Maine. This is my first day at the office and my first video from the digital den.

While I was away, I got to thinking about one of the oldest myths about trading: the buy and hold myth. While this strategy has worked in certain markets at certain times, I do not believe we are in a time frame where this strategy is going to meet with a lot of success.

The world around us is changing rapidly and therefore it is important to have strategies that can change with this new regime.

In today's video I'm going to show how the buy and hold strategy is flawed when you compare it to our "Trade Triangle" technology. I think you will be surprised at the results and how well you can do using this simple approach to markets.

There is no need to register for this video and of course you can watch it with my compliments. I highly recommend watching this video today, otherwise you risk missing out on what could be the move of the year.

Enjoy the video and please give us your feedback on this blog.

All the best,

The Calm Before the Inflationary Storm

We ALL worry about inflation, but then the news dies down a bit and we push in another 'major issue' according to the news media. Funny how they can easily munipulate the masses with their massive hype machine...anyway when inflation was hot Tim McMahon, editor of InflationData.com, was busier then anyone on the planet! I've asked him to enlighten us on the inflationary storm...please enjoy the article, comment below, and visit InflationData.com for more info.

====================================================================

I must be getting old.  Things seem to change awfully quickly.  It seems like just yesterday that gasoline was well over $4.00 a gallon and inflation was 5.6%.   It was July 2008 and inflation was the hot topic, everyone was worried about costs climbing exponentially.  It seemed like every time I went to the store things cost more.  Oil was a speculator’s dream and a car owner’s nightmare.

Final video from Maine ... Dollar Index Update

My wife and I just got back from cruising the Maine coastline and we were blessed with great weather and calm seas. When I got back to my summer home and had access once again to the internet, I immediately started looking through the MarketClub charts. It was then that I realized that it has been sometime since I last did a video on the Dollar Index.

Since we are heading back to our home in Maryland on Wednesday, this will be my last video postcard from Maine.

So let's get started.

5 Simple Things All Wealthy Traders Do To Gain An Edge

At one point I considered myself the luckiest person in the trading world because I was surrounded by trading experts, and had instant access to almost anyone. I lost that title after I met Tim Bourquin, Co-Founder of TraderInterviews.com. See Tim has the platform to basically ask ANY question he wants to ANY trader he wants...and he records it for his future use. Thankfully he opened his records for people like you and I to learn from and in this article he teaches us 5 things that he's learned from the hundreds of experts he's interviewed. Enjoy the article, comment below, and take time to visit TraderInterviews.com.

====================================================================

Over the past year I’ve spoken to hundreds of traders, many of which were recorded and posted at TraderInterviews.com.  If you had asked me a few years ago how the best traders approached the markets, I would have said that they all had similar strategies.  But after talking with traders of every market imaginable, I’ve found they all have very different methods.

However, while they each may use wildly different techniques (I spoke with one very wealthy trader who confirmed his chart patterns by looking at planetary movement and moon phases), all of them follow five rules without exception.   Some of them make hundreds of thousands – even millions – of dollars each trading their own account.  These aren’t your typical “always use a hard stop loss” type of rules .  These are actual guidelines successful traders follow religiously.

In fact, I’d bet that deep down you know you should be following these rules as well but you aren’t – yet.  Today is the day you can commit to doing what works for other wealthy traders and get on that same path.

Let’s get started.
