Is The US Dollar Reversing Again?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

It's been a while since we did a video on the euro/dollar relationship. This relationship may be reversing again based on recent price action. In today's short video I point out some of the changes we see happening in this market.

This week could be shaping up to be an extraordinary week in the markets. I strongly recommend that traders everywhere take precautionary measure measures to protect capital.

Has the Euro Gone Too Far?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

We ended 2009 with the overriding consensus that the dollar was going to be under pressure and keep moving lower against the euro. Well guess what, the euro proved to be even weaker than the US dollar as it moved to levels not seen since May of 2009.

So what happened? Was conventional thinking wrong, or did the market get it right? We may be at a tipping point where conventional thinking could well be wrong again.

In my new video I share with you what I see in the euro/dollar cross right now.

How Did the World Cup Portfolio Fare in Q4?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

The last quarter of '09 proved to be the sweetest quarter for the year for a World Cup Portfolio. For the quarter, we had a dollar return of $16,041.75 before commissions, which is approximately a 32% return on capital. The World Cup Portfolio (WCP) needs $50,000 to run and is based on double margins for every market. Double margins mean that by depositing twice the amount of money that is required by the exchanges, you are effectively de-leveraging the instrument you are trading. We consider this a more conservative approach to the commodity markets.

The Q4 results have proven to be very successful for MarketClub members using this strategy. With a 90% win rate, the World Cup Portfolio stands out as being an excellent investment vehicle over the long-term. It is interesting to note that the only market that has scored successfully in every quarter is the wheat market. The other five markets: corn, soybeans, crude oil, gold and the dollar index have all come in between the 80 and 90% range.

Has the dollar bottomed out?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

We have made a number of videos on the dollar index and in my latest video I show you some of the aspects we outlined in our previous video that have come to pass.

The positive divergences on the MACD indicator which we discussed last time have kicked in and pushed the dollar index higher. Longer-term major trend for the dollar index continues to be negative. In this short video you'll see what the market is doing now and what we expect it to do in the future.
