Today's Video Update: Let's Face It, Bernanke Is A Wimp

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 17th of July.

Let's Face It, Bernanke Is A Wimp
To be fair to Fed chairman Bernanke, he is human and like all humans, he is not perfect. His weakness right now is he just wants to get through the rest of his term, which ends on the 14th of January 2014, and not rock the boat. I think if anyone has said that the QE program (yeah, printing money), now in it's fourth year, would take this long nobody would have believed it, including chairman Bernanke.

The reality is, QE looks like a trade that has gone bad and nobody wants to admit it. It was a bad bet (trade) the Fed made and they all have egg on their faces, but nobody from the Fed is ever going to say they made a mistake with the QE program, including Chairman Bernanke. Like I mentioned earlier, humans are known to make mistakes. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Let's Face It, Bernanke Is A Wimp"

Today's Video Update: Apple Is Officially Moving Sideways

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 15th of July.

Every July, it gets very hot and humid here in Maryland and the markets seem to be following suit. The energy markets and the equity markets are hot right now and all in strong upward trends.

One thing to note today is that Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) is now officially moving sideways according to the new weekly Trade Triangle. This is in contrast to the strong downward trend we have seen in this stock from the $700 level. What does this mean? Well, it could mean that we are in the early stages of a double bottom base being put in place in this once-high-flying stock that institutional investors love. If that is true and we see a new piece of technology coming out of Apple (like a smart watch?), Apple could easily rally back to the $550 level. The key level to watch here is the $466 level. If that level is taken out, then it could be off to the races for Apple.

Today's Video Update: It's The Weekend And We All Know What That Means

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 12th of July.

With record high closes in the DOW and the S&P 500 yesterday, this is not the time to be short the main indices going into this weekend. I will be using our 52-week high strategy to catch a quick move and you can see the rules on how to play in today's video.

The DOW triggered a Green Weekly Trade Triangle on 7/10/13 at 15,340.09 signaling a resumption of the uptrend.

The S&P 500 triggered a Green Weekly Trade Triangle on 7/10/13 at 1,654.19 signaling a resumption of the uptrend.

The NASDAQ triggered a Green Weekly Trade Triangle on 7/8/13 at 3,488.31 signaling a resumption of the uptrend.

On Monday, our weekly (intermediate trend) Trade Triangle kicked in and gave a resumption of trend buy signal for the NASDAQ index. The signal came in at 3,488.31 confirming that both the intermediate and longer-term trends are now in unison, signaling a move to the upside.

Today's Video Update: Clear Cut Trends Are Emerging

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 9th of July.

NASDAQ Flashes A Buy Signal
On Monday, our weekly (intermediate trend) Trade Triangle kicked in and gave a buy signal for the NASDAQ index. The signal came in at 3,488.31, confirming that both the intermediate and longer-term trends are now in unison signaling a move to the upside. The NASDAQ could be a precursor of trends to come on both the DOW and the S&P 500, only time will tell.

Crude Oil Takes A Breather
Do not be fooled by this momentary pause in the price of crude oil, with the trend clearly established to the upside, I am looking for new highs in this market. With a target zone of $110 per barrel for crude, I see no reason to abandon long positions and want to hold firm for longer term traders. A close in the August contract over $103.50 this week will represent a new high close and a continuation of the uptrend. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Clear Cut Trends Are Emerging"
