Ride For The Rivers - INO Cares

Posted on by admin

INO's Office LocationWe are so lucky to work in such a beautiful location. One side of our office building overlooks a thriving marina with fisherman constantly going in and out of port, while the other side of our building has the most beautiful view of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. Seeing river otters, blue heron and bald eagles are not a rare occurrence here.

Our building also houses the office of the West/Rhode Riverkeeper. This non-profit organization is a licensed member of Waterkeeper Alliance, an international movement of on-the-water advocates who patrol and protect 100,000 miles of rivers, streams and coastlines in North and South America, Australia, Europe, Asia and Africa. The Riverkeeper’s goal is to enforce environmental law, promote restoration and to advocate for better environmental policies.

Our beautiful office view would not be as beautiful without the hard work of organizations like the West/Rhode Riverkeeper!

For our May INO Cares campaign, INO.com sponsored a riding team for the West/Rhode Riverkeeper’s first annual “Ride For The Rivers” on May 10th, 2014. Proceeds for this event went to help the West/Rhode Riverkeeper in its efforts to keep the local waterways fishable, swimmable and clean.

This awesome event took riders through the rolling countryside of two of Maryland’s southern counties and followed up with a post ride party!

Adam Hewison, INO.com CEO and President, is an avid biker, so this event was extra special for him. He got out there for the 60-miler and had an absolute blast! Our sponsored INO riding team consistent of 25 riders from the Annapolis area. We hope they all had a blast and will continue to support this awesome cause year after year!

Fill In The Caption - Tim Geithner

What do you think would be the "perfect caption" for this photograph of the former 75th United States Secretary of the Treasury, Tim Geithner?

Here's my caption:
"I saved the world and paid no personal taxes. I am that smart!"

As always, I look forward to reading your captions.

For a good chuckle, be sure to read some of the captions from previous Fill In The Caption pictures.

What's Brewing In The Coffee Market?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

One of the many things I enjoy about MarketClub is interacting with our members and discussing the markets. One of our members recently asked about the coffee market and what I thought about it.

"Would love to see your analysis of coffee as a special situation. Know it is currently in a pullback. Monthly is still green. Sounds like the shortage is expected to continue and increase. That should mean prices will go even higher. The question is where to get back in. I have been using the ETF JO to play it. Have had a good run with in and outs following TT's, RSI, and other. Expect we could all benefit from a right time buy and proper trailing stop and just following it for a while?"

As you can see, Harold is pretty smart investor and a valued member of MarketClub. He's also taken some nice profits out of the coffee market.

So without further ado, here are my thoughts on the July Coffee (NYMEX:KT.N14.E) market. Now remember, Harold is trading the ETF Ipath DJ-UBS Coffee Trust Sub-Index (PACF:JO). This ETF pretty much mimics what the coffee market is doing.

Chart Code
1. Trade Triangles
2. Price negative divergence
3. RSI negative divergence
4. Fibonacci support area

When trading in the futures markets, we are relying on the weekly Trade Triangle for the trend and the daily Trade Triangles for timing. It's also important not to forget the monthly Trade Triangle, as it shows the longer-term trend. Continue reading "What's Brewing In The Coffee Market?" →

The Futility Of Attempting to Predict The Markets

Posted on by The INO.com Team

By: Tim Melvin

We live in a world full of predictions.

People are always predicting things like the weather, the outcome of hurricane season, sporting events and, of course, the stock market. The scary part about all these predictions is how often they are wrong -- and how often individuals rely on them. If humans were such great predictors of events, there would be more far more successful investors and wealthy gamblers.

As a bonus, no one would ever get caught outside without an umbrella. The future is unknowable for the most part and making guesses is not a productive way to live or manage money.

Even those with the very best data and computing power are usually wrong more than they are right. Consider the amount of brain and computing power that goes into predicting the weather every day -- and how often they are just plain wrong. Some little unexpected wind gust a hundred miles of away and, instead of a nice sunny day, there can be a deluge of rain. Continue reading "The Futility Of Attempting to Predict The Markets" →

2 Healthcare Stocks To Avoid And 2 I Like

Posted on by The INO.com Team

As America ages, healthcare is going to be an important issue. How companies approach this is going to make a big difference to their bottom line.

The new Affordable Care Act, which is slowly being implemented, is another dimension that will have to be factored into the future. How companies adapt and make money in the future may have more to do with how they do business, rather than the drugs they are pushing.

Today, I'll be looking at four stocks, two that are in strong bullish trends according to the Trade Triangle technology, and two that are in downtrends.

From the long side based on the Trade Triangle technology:
Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:ABT)
Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ)

From the short side based on the Trade Triangle technology:
Amgen Inc. (NASDAQ:AMGN)
Pfizer, Inc. (NYSE:PFE)
