Big Trend, Big Stock, Low Risk Trade?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders and MarketClub members everywhere. I would like to bring to your attention a stock that has been in a strong upward trend for some time that just flashed another buy signal yesterday. I consider this a sign of strength, particularly as the general market was down yesterday.

I decided just to do a short video today and focus on this one stock to show you an approach that I believe offers a very nice risk-reward ratio. I'm also going to share with you a way that you can lower the risk even further by using this one very simple technique.

The stock I'm going to be looking at is a big, well-known, high volume stock that offers lots of liquidity.

Check out today's video and see what you think of this stock and this one very simple technique to lower risk and enhance profits.

Every success with MarketClub,

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello MarketClub members and traders everywhere. It's the start of another trading week and I would like to share with you one of the model portfolios that is available to you as a valued member of MarketClub.

The portfolio I will be looking at is the Internet portfolio. This portfolio performed extremely well in 2013 with a 65% return and had a more conservative return of 16% in 2014. This year, the Internet portfolio has seen some tremendous profits in just two of the five stocks are tracked in this portfolio.

Every day the Internet portfolio is updated showing you the most current position and possible next move. The five stocks that are tracked are all well-known stocks that are traded heavily and offer great liquidity.

Both Netflix and Amazon have proven to be big winners. Yelp is also looking good and is currently short from $41.25.

Here are the current positions and open profits as of 8/14/2015: Continue reading "Are You Looking For A Winning Portfolio?" →

What A Week And It's Not Over Yet

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Make no mistake about it, this past week has been very volatile with 200 point swings in the DOW becoming almost a daily occurrence.

But, guess what?

The markets are practically unchanged from last Friday's close. In fact, the the DOW and S&P 500 are up 0.20% and 0.26% respectively as of the close of business Thursday. Only the NASDAQ is down for the week with a very minor loss of 0.13%. All that could change today as traders are faced with the decision of what to with their stocks. Fridays tend to be decision day for many traders when they ask themselves, "Do I want to be short this market for the weekend, or should I be on the sidelines"?

Do you remember those 3 stocks that I highlighted on Monday? Well, I'm happy to report that all 3 stocks are positive for the week. Continue reading "What A Week And It's Not Over Yet" →

One Amazing Stock and the "Death Cross"

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Last week I talked about the "death cross". This ominous sounding indicator is watched by many long-term investors. A "death cross" occurs when the 50-day moving average moves below the 200-day moving average. It sounds a little morbid, but this indicator has been useful in the past.

Let me give you some examples of the "death cross" during the past 8 years. Since 2007, there have been four times when the "death cross" has come into play. On January 14, 2008, a "death cross" was signaled and that was the start of the big downturn that lasted until July 8, 2009, when the 50-day moving average moved back over the 200-day moving average.

On July 7, 2010, the 50-day moving average once again dipped below the 200-day moving average signaling a bear trend. That signal came to an end on October 4, 2010, and proved to be more of a consolidation than a bear market.

We had to wait until August 25, 2011 for the next "death cross". This again proved to be short lived, only about four months and in retrospect, looked more like a consolidation that a bear market. That signal ended on January 4, 2012.

So what are we to make of this last "death cross", the one that occurred yesterday? Continue reading "One Amazing Stock and the "Death Cross"" →

3 Energy Stocks Set To Soar

Posted on by The INO.com Team

It is no secret that energy has been a big disappointment to many investors in 2015. I do not believe anyone predicted that crude oil would be so low during the month of August which is the peak travel month here in the US. That's all the more reason to see why these 3 energy-related stocks are doing what they're doing right now.

In today's video, I'm going to be analyzing each of these stocks and projecting what I think the upside targets will be in the near-term and longer-term.

The first stock I'm taking a look at is Xcel Energy Inc. (NYSE:XEL)
Xcel Energy Inc., through its subsidiaries, engages primarily in the generation, purchase, transmission, distribution, and sale of electricity in the United States. It operates through Regulated Electric Utility, Regulated Natural Gas Utility, and All Other segments. The company generates electricity using coal, nuclear, natural gas, hydro, solar, biomass, oil and refuse, and wind energy sources.

Last Friday, this stock signaled a major trend change at $35.15. The market closed on Friday at $35.24. Continue reading "3 Energy Stocks Set To Soar" →
