A Strategy for Every Trader: Wave Trading

Posted on by admin

By: Toni Hansen of Trade Station

When you picture a trading strategy that can be applied to literally any asset class what does it look like? In more than 15 years of trading, there is one particular pattern that I've fallen in love with. I use it to scalp the index futures and to invest in my IRA. It's served me well through bull markets, bear markets, and those times in between as the trends reverse. In this video, I'm sharing it with you. It's a pattern that will look familiar to many of you, but unless you've been following my work over the years, you've probably never been shown what it is that makes it so successful. And without those details, you probably struggled to find that level of success. Watch it. Study it. Trade it. And then let me know what you think!

Weekly Futures Recap w/Mike Seery

Posted on by admin

We’ve asked Michael Seery of SEERYFUTURES.COM to give our INO readers a weekly recap of the Futures market. He has been Senior Analyst for close to 15 years and has extensive knowledge of all of the commodity and option markets.

Michael frequently appears on multiple business networks including Bloomberg news, Fox Business, CNBC Worldwide, CNN Business, and Bloomberg TV. He is also a guest on First Business, which is a national and internationally syndicated business show.

Grain Futures--- The grain market continues its extreme volatility especially in soybeans up another $.40 this Friday right near contract highs at 13.26 a bushel all due to the fact that the crop is not very good despite heavy rains across much of the Midwest yesterday especially in Illinois but production in Iowa is dismal with a worse crop than the 2011 floods and the 2012 drought which is absolutely astonishing in my opinion, and it looks to me that these prices are headed higher. As I’ve stated in previous blogs the trade that is been working is to be long soybeans & short corn and wheat and its working again as the real strength is and soybeans as corn is still going to have a terrific crop and if wheat could talk it would bark that’s how big of a dog this market is only up $.04 today at 6.44 only $.05 away from making new contract lows as the fundamentals in wheat are much different than in soybeans. Corn futures are up $.06 at 4.71 basically going nowhere in recent weeks after Thursday’s debacle down $.19 due to the heavy rains and it looks to me that corn and wheat will remain weak for quite some time as the possibility of soybeans continuing towards the $14 mark looks pretty good and if you look at soybean meal prices they have hit contract highs once again as massive demand for that product continues to prop up prices towards historical highs.

Today's Video Update: Syria, The End of Summer and What's Ahead

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 30th of August.

The U.K. Nixes Their Involvement In Syria, Should The U.S. Go It Alone?
When the vote was tallied last night in the British Parliament, the U.K. effectively dropped out of supplying any military support in Syria. This vote put the Obama administration in a very difficult spot, should the U.S. go it alone or backdown and lose face? Well, according to our poll, almost 77% of our readers voted that the U.S. should not get involved in Syria. So does the administration go against the will of the people? Only time will tell.

At the moment the world has backed Pres. Obama into a corner, if he doesn't do anything the U.S. is going to look weak and if he lob's in a few cruise missiles he is going to look pathetic at best. There is no win-win solution in either scenario. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Syria, The End of Summer and What's Ahead" →

Micro-Cap Oil Stocks that Hit the Jackpot

Posted on by admin

The Energy Report: With oil prices firming up over the past couple of months and the spread between West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent Crude narrowing, what are your price expectations for the remainder of 2013 and into next year?

Phil Juskowicz: While I don't spend a lot of time predicting commodity prices, I personally see relatively stable short-term oil prices. Intermediate or long-term prices may weaken, assuming no supply disruptions arise from political upheavals, while gas prices may strengthen based on supply/demand fundamentals. We've seen continued oil supply growth and the short term market seems to be pretty range bound, having developed a good base around the $100 per barrel ($100/bbl) level.

TER: Where do you see some of the best investment opportunities in the oil and gas business? Continue reading "Micro-Cap Oil Stocks that Hit the Jackpot" →
