Catching 17 falling knives is not a smart idea!

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 12th of November.

Europe remains a mess and it would appear as though the availability to kick the can down the road is becoming more difficult for countries like Greece and Spain. With 17 nations comprising the Euro Zone, we think it's going to be very difficult to catch all of these "knives" (countries) when they start falling.

In the past four or five weeks we have seen the major equity markets all pullback, with the NASDAQ reaching a 61.8% Fibonacci correction level. The Dow and the S&P 500 have both corrected by 50%, also a Fibonacci number, and we would not be surprised to see a bounce from current levels. Normally when you see corrections of this magnitude to key Fibonacci levels, you get a counter-trend bounce.

The one thing I love about the markets, is that they really do tell a true picture of what's going on. That is why we, along with thousands of our MarketClub members around the world, are so confident that our Trade Triangle technology will keep us on the right side of the market.

OMG the Fiscal Cliff is coming!

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 9th of November.
Suprise, suprise the "Fiscal Cliff" is almost upon us. Is it just me or is the world just bouncing from one crisis to another crisis where nothing gets done?

We have been discussing the "Fiscal Cliff" for well over a year that I can recall, and nothing has been accomplished. Over the pond in Europe, Greece, Spain, Italy and France all have major problems yet not one of these countries has addressed their problems. Politicians first and foremost want to keep their own jobs and are loath to make hard decisions.

I am not sure if the art of kicking the can down the road was perfected here in the US or in Europe, but we certainly now have a bunch of global politicians who are very adept at kicking the can down the road. Continue reading "OMG the Fiscal Cliff is coming!" →

The next big thing, drumroll please … Obama Insurance

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Thursday, the 8th of November.

The market voted yesterday on the election results with the biggest one day drop for the year. Did yesterday's market action indicate a major change in direction or was it just a blip in a longer term bull market?

Regardless of the eventual outcome for the major markets, every investor needs some "Obama Insurance". Here is how "Obama Insurance" works:

Let's begin by looking at where we closed last Friday in the major markets and where we are trading now. Bear in mind these markets can change direction pretty quickly and we will really want to watch where we close this Friday (11/9).

Say Goodbye to the Election and Hello to Inflation

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Wednessday, the 7th of November.

The election is over and one half the country is happy and the other half of the country is unhappy. It's time to move on and focus on the markets and what we do best here at MarketClub, catching the big moves in stocks, futures, Forex and the futures markets.

If we continue down the same economic path of the last four years, stimulus after stimulus, inflation is going to come roaring back in a vengeful way. That is going to be a positive for gold and other raw commodities and real estate.

In regards to all the markets, we are going to rely on our winning Trade Triangles as they will show us the path to profits.

Now, let's go to the markets and see what our Trade Triangles are indicating.

Have a great trading day,
Adam Hewison

Left or right it all comes down to today - Election day in America

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 6th of November.

Yesterday, we invited users to vote on our own poll on who is going to win the 2012 presidential election. The poll  is presently indicating 54% for Romney and 46% Obama, a Romney win.

The poll on our MarketClub.com website currently shows Governor Romney with 50% and President Obama with 50%, a dead heat.

What do you think?

The markets are not indicating one way or another who is going to win the election. The equity markets are trading higher for the week, as is crude oil, gold, and silver, while the dollar remains on the defensive.
