Weekend Update...What a week!

Hello fellow traders everywhere. Adam Hewison here co-founder of MarketClub with your weekend update for the trading week ending on 8/12/11.

What a week of market swings and volatility. Now that the dust has settled, let's examine what happened in the major markets we track.

Out of the six markets we track every trading day, three markets were in positive territory for the week. The three markets that did not end up in the plus column were S&P500 down 1.71%, Crude Oil lost 1.70% and the Reuters/Jeffries CRB commodity index minus .14% for the week.

The percentage winner for the week was gold which picked up 4.99% and remains in a strong upward trend based on our Trade Triangle technology.
