Trading Simulator (Free)

No software to install. It's all through the website, www.tradingsim.com and best of all it is free. I don't how good it is though for I've recently signed up but the good thing is that you don't have to have your own software running, through the day, recording data to run in the simulator - like Ninjatrader and the likes.

I hope this helps someone.

EURUSD Market Club score is now +60 which means very weak uptrend.

NDX (Nasdaq 100 Index) Update

Market Clubs score for the Nasdaq 100 Index has dropped as low as -100 since my last update and is now resting at -55. It has not been a good idea to go long using trending strategies. Anyway, this is my last update on the NDX. However, I will follow Market Club's rating on the EURUSD since I do trade this market. Currently the score on the EURUSD is -55.

Prosperous trading till next time..

Why Weekly Charts Work

Want to trade like Adam? Click here for FREE lessons.

Scan for Chart Patterns

Here is a site I came across a year or two back called thegreedytrader.com. This site provides weekly technical analysis information on the stock market by way of scans, alerts and picks. They have a section called "Green List" or "Red List" which brings you to a page that lists stocks, based on certain criteria including trend patterns, for daily to yearly periods. If you see a stock on the list that you like you can click the plus sign to add it to your watch list. Also, you can download an excel sheet of the list. Under the Analysis menu, you can also do a "TA Search" in their "Advanced Technical Analysis Stock Market Screener". What is worth noting is that you can search for chart and candlestick patterns.
Now, of course you have to be a subscriber to take advantage of these services. They have a free subscription and a premium subscription. You have access to alerts and picks with the premium subscription. Again, the site is updated weekly basis not daily.

I am not a subscriber but maybe the site might help out someone. If you've learnt about chart patterns, compare that knowledge to what is presented and see for yourself if it line up. And compare the patterns with patterns from other sources for the same stock. You will increase your understanding of patterns even more.

Patterns Discovered in the Nasdaq

Adam Hewison of MarketClub discovered a pattern in the NASDAQ that if it repeats "then it certainly is going to be a rough third and fourth-quarter for most investors." See video below.

UPDATE: Nasdaq 100 Index is now down to a MarketClub score of -65. This indicates a downtrend is in place.

On a side note, Nasdaq 100 (NDX) score moved up to +70.

NDX Update

Nasdaq 100 index (NDX) moved down from a score of +100 to +55 as of 7/29/10.

Sector ETF XLU update

Just a quick update. In the last post I mentioned that Market Club gave XLU (utilities sector etf) a score of +75. The score is now +100. You can see other examples of market analysis by visiting the link below.

Trade Triangles

The XLU holdings are probably showing some strength. The website I use to find out what stocks are in what ETF is Select Sector SPDRs (www.sectorspdr.com). You can easily search for your ETF by entering it in the upper right hand corner. Once up, you click holdings from the left context menu. You are then presented with all the holdings. On top are two options to download .cvs or .xls files of the list. That saves alot of trouble entering each symbol into other applications.

I will be tracking the Nasdaq 100 (NDX). So far, Market Club's score on the NDX is +70 as of today. Three stocks from the NDX (JOYG, MICC, CHRW) are showing scores of +100. This is not a buy recommendation (See Disclaimer). Just watching what happens.

Happy Trading!

Try Market Club for FREE

As of July 13th, 2010 the utilities ETF, XLU, has an analysis score of +75. This mean that the market may be in some near-term weakness, but is still in a long-term upward trend with intermediate and longer-term trends pointing to a bull market. This is not a recommendation to invest in XLU but an example of the information that you can acquire via the Market club tools in order to make investment decisions.

MarketClub takes pride in their suite of tools and unique indicators that help you establish the trend easily and quickly for different time frames and trading styles. MarketClub wants to show you why they are so confident in their system and are rolling out the red carpet for you...trust me your not going to want to miss this:

Follow Up to Momentum Technique I Like

Last month, I posted a link to Investopedia.com's article on a momentum trading technique I like. That is, an Impulse System developed by Dr. Elder.
I came across, by accident, an article on Stockcharts.com also about the system and a little variation on how to use it - Elder Impulse System.

If you have the Ninjatrader platform, an indicator for this system can be found on Big Mike's Daytrading Forum - Ninja Impulse System Indicator.

Is it all over for the Euro?

Euro/Dollar, the most commonly traded Forex pair, is always a a hot subject. Throw in the meltdown of Greece and 5,200+ pip profit and you have Adams latest video.

Subject: Is it all over for the Euro?
--------------------------------------------------------------

Things have been bad in Europe recently. Between the travel restrictions due to the volcano and ash, as well as Greece not wanting to conform to strict fiscal policies, problems are adding up and adding weight onto the euro.

http://www.ino.com/info/549/CD3393/&dp=0&l=0&campaignid=3

It is interesting to note that in the beginning of 2010, everyone was bearish on the dollar. Looking at the market action alone we could see that the dollar has done very well vis-à-vis the euro. This is where technical analysis shines as it is an unbiased viewpoint of the collective wisdom of all market participants.

In this new video I show you how you can trade the euro/USD cross using our "Trade Triangle" technology and come out of winner no matter what happens to Greece, Portugal, or Spain.

New Video: GOLD UPDATE

Why gold will not make new highs or lows this year?

Have you ever heard of the phrase "Energy fields" in relation to the markets?
I haven't until I saw this video from Adam Hewison of Market Club. It's an interesting concept that when applied to the markets can help analyze what is going on at the moment.

Adam talks about what he see on the Gold chart and what could be happening.

See for yourself:

Momentum Technique that I like

At the following link, you will find an Investopedia article on a momentum trading technique that uses the EMA and the MACD histogram. When the slopes of both indicators are rising bulls are strong and you look for buys. When both are falling you look for sells. You exit when there is divergence between the indicators. It's not an easy technique to follow according to the article but it's simple and I kinda like it. Keep in mind I have not traded using this technique but been backtesting.

A Complete Swing Trading Strategy

Swing-Trade-Stocks.com presents a free simple swing trading strategy that a novice trader can study, follow and implement. The strategy uses two moving averages, with entry and exit techniques, and money management.

This is a trend following strategy that allows you to get in on the pullbacks for low risk trades. Note that you will incur loses during ranging periods if following this strategy but should make up the loses when the market trends. I have not backtested the strategy so do your due diligence and backtest, forward test, before committing real money.

The Line Is Drawn In the Sand In the Equity Markets?

To many technicians, it is very clear where the equity markets will reverse, and for those folks who don't follow the technicals, this is a key reversal area in the S&P 500, the NASDAQ, and the Dow.

In my new short video I show you the exact levels that I think will reverse this market, if in fact it's ever going to reverse to the downside.

Currently the major trend remains positive for all the indices and we would only become negative on the these markets should the key levels I show you today, are broken.

As always our videos are free to watch and there are no registration requirements. I would really like to hear back from you with regards to your thoughts on this video.

New Video: Making sense of today's Gold market:

It's been about eight days since we did a video on gold, and given the market action today I thought I would look at what is causing the downward pressure in this market.

If you did not watch my last video on gold, I strongly recommend you click here to watch the video titled "Five Reasons Why Gold Will Not Make a New High This Time" as it will give you a bigger picture of how we see this market playing out in the next 12 months.

http://www.ino.com/info/530/CD3393/&dp=0&l=0&campaignid=3

In today's short video we look at an indicator that we have not talked about before in any of our videos. The indicator, which is an overlay on top of the chart, is called the Donchian Channel Indicator.

Richard Donchian, who has since passed away, came up with this indicator in the late '40s. The reason why I like this indicator is the fact that it has successfully stood the test of time. I think you'll really enjoy seeing how it can help you make money in the gold market.

Also in this video, I point out one very important cycle that is in play now and where I think the next tradable low is coming into this market.

http://www.ino.com/info/530/CD3393/&dp=0&l=0&campaignid=3

New Video: Apple, iPad,

As a techy, I think the iPad is pretty cool. My eyes like it. Can it do what I want like for that I can't do with the ipod or mini PC? Probably not. It seems to be centered around multimedia, itunes and services you have to buy in order to use it. Anyway, that's another story.

But in this new video, Adam attributes the Apple's run up to the anticipation of the iPad. However, looks like Apple is losing steam now the product is out. As I write this post Apple is at $195.20 which is a 20pt reduction from it's 215 high. It's been dropping folks. Adam points out the divergence in Apple on a monthly chart. Apple has made new highs but the MACD has made lower highs. Also, refering to fibs. lines, he believe that there could be a correction down to as far as the 50% level. We will have to watch the major markets, especially the Nasdaq and S&P 500 to see if they retrace as ananlyzed in previous videos.

So, again we learned about divergence and will possibly see the affects of it on Apple.

http://www.ino.com/info/512/CD3393/&dp=0&l=0&campaignid=3

Video: NASDAQ crosses important trend line

In this video from MarketClub, you see that the Nasdaq reached 61.8% fibonacci level. At the same time, we can see divergence happening for the market been making higher highs while the MACD oscillator been weakening or making lower highs. Not only that but the Nasdaq has been trending up since early last year and now it seems like the Nasdaq has broken that trend line. Trend lines can really help in determining direction and which side of the trade to be on. Watch the video and see how a trend line is drawn.

Is the Dow in trouble?

For some time now we’ve been very concerned that all the major indexes are in the “thin air” and have exceeded some key Fibonacci retracement levels. This new short video explores that and looks at a key Japanese candlestick formation that could really make a difference and be the first clue in the demise of the Dow.

I’ll also show and share with you a specific number to look for in February. Should this level be broken, then it will signal a major reversal to the downside for the Dow.

As always our videos are free to watch and there is no need to register.

Video on the Basic Chart Reading

Here is an archived video webinar on chart reading basics for beginners. See it while it last. I don't know if it will be there for long. It's a good review for seasoned traders.

Chart Reading

Keep Learning

One thing that I often hear from successful traders or investors is that their education never stop. And one way to keep themselves updated or to learn new things is by way of magazine subscriptions. There are some pretty good investing magazines out there but I will only mention one here and that is Futures Magazine. Well, maybe because I receive it monthly.

Why Futures Magazine? Well, it usually has informative articles on the market condition (Commodities, Equity, Options, Forex), and trading techniques. You can probably get a free subscription. Often you will find offers for a free subscription. I've got mine when I had visited the Traders Expo in New York. If you don't want magazines coming to your house, you can still get alot of the articles on their website.

Furthermore, they have an online virtual trade show called I-Trade Show. It's something like a trade show online and it's free. The feature I like is the on demand videos of pre-recorded webinars. However, once on there the sponsors/exhibitors will try to contact you.

So, check out Futers Magazine.
