Trading on "Eggshells"
Hello traders everywhere. Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub, with your 1 p.m. market update for Friday the 24th of June.
It has been quite a week with the Greek problem still not out of the woods. Ben Bernanke indicated that the economy is not so good after all. Plus the release of 30 million barrels of oil just enough for the US to get through a day or two. How crazy is all of that.
Okay, here it is the end of the week and the markets are mixed at 1pm. The Dow is down for the week right now, the NASDAQ is on the plus side, and the S&P500 is stuck in the middle of the road and has barely changed this week.
Now let's take a look at what's happening in the markets today... Continue reading "Trading on "Eggshells""
Barrel of Monkeys?
Hello traders everywhere. Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub, with your 1 p.m. market update for Thursday the 23rd of June.
Choppy, choppy, markets. Today's action should be viewed as a test of the lower range in the S&P 500. This market is very close to breaking the 200 day moving average. Many traders consider this to be one of the most important long-term technical indicators for the equity markets. The exception to this is the NASDAQ that is already below the 200 day moving average and looks like we're going to see further downside action. The other big news was the sharp drop in precious metals. We were warning about this in our commentary yesterday as gold was grudgingly going up and up, popping above the upper levels of the Donchian channel. The release of 30 million barrels of crude oil will last about a day and a half in the US. This action can only be viewed in my mind as a desperate measure to win popularity for the current administration. I have seen many times in the past that when governments get involved in the markets, they never come out ahead. As we said in yesterday's video, a low risk entry point for short term traders should be around $90.07 at the bottom end of the Donchian channel.
Now let's take a look at the markets... Continue reading "Barrel of Monkeys?"
Does Bernanke know best?
Hello traders everywhere. Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub, with your 1 p.m. market update for Wednesday the 22nd of June.
Yesterday it was Greece, today it's Ben Bernanke and the FED. What is really going on with the equity market is that no one has strong feelings either on the upside or downside . This neutrality is reflected in our +55 reading indicating that the market remains in a trading range. Today we want to do something a little bit different, I am going to go through each of the markets quickly, and then zoom in and focus on two markets crude oil and silver. I think you'll find our analysis quite interesting and informative.
Now let's take a look at what's happening in the markets... Continue reading "Does Bernanke know best?"
