S&P 500 INDEX
BIG PICTURE: Strong Trend +90
TRADE TRIANGLES: Long-Term = Bullish | Intermediate Term = Bullish | Short-Term = Bullish
MARKETCLUB SCORING SYSTEM: Trading Range 50 – 65 | Emerging Trend 70 – 80 | Strong Trend 85 – 100
We continue to lean towards the warm side of this market and providing that the $1315 level holds up, we expect to see this market move higher in the future. We now have an upside target in the next two or three months between $1370 and $1400 for this index. That is not to say it will be straight up from here, we would expect to see pullbacks and expect the $1300 level to act as support. With all of our Trade Triangles green, a bull market is underway. Long and Intermediate term traders should now be holding long positions in this index with appropriate money management stops.

SILVER (SPOT)
BIG PICTURE: Emerging Trend +70
TRADE TRIANGLES: Long-Term = Bearish | Intermediate Term = Bullish | Short-Term = Bullish
MARKETCLUB SCORING SYSTEM: Trading Range 50 – 65 | Emerging Trend 70 – 80 | Strong Trend 85 – 100
The sharp upward movement in silver yesterday was spurred by comments by Fed Chairman Bernanke. This sharp move did not change our long-term monthly Trade Triangle, which we consider to be the bigger trend in this market for long term traders. We think this market is at the top of a trading range cycle, but has not provided conclusive proof that the cycle has indeed topped out. With our long-term monthly Trade Triangle negative, we expect to see this market run out of steam around current levels. With a Chart Analysis Score for silver at +70, silver could be moving into an emerging trend. Long-term term traders should be in short positions in silver with appropriate money management stops. Intermediate term traders should be on the sidelines.

GOLD (SPOT)
BIG PICTURE: Trading Range +70
TRADE TRIANGLES: Long-Term = Bearish | Intermediate Term = Bullish | Short-Term = Bullish
MARKETCLUB SCORING SYSTEM: Trading Range 50 – 65 | Emerging Trend 70 – 80 | Strong Trend 85 – 100
Comments from Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke were all that was needed to push gold prices sharply higher. Yesterday's sharp upward move did not change the negative monthly Trade Triangle we have for this market. With a Chart Analysis Score of +70, gold could be developing an emerging trend to the upside. We are reluctant to chase gold at these current levels. That factor along with our monthly Trade Triangle which is still negative continues to act as an inhibitor for this market on the upside. Long-term term traders should be in short positions in gold with appropriate money management stops. Intermediate term traders should be on the sidelines.

COPPER (MARCH)
BIG PICTURE: Strong Trend +100
TRADE TRIANGLES: Long-Term = Bullish | Intermediate Term = Bullish | Short-Term = Bullish
MARKETCLUB SCORING SYSTEM: Trading Range 50 – 65 | Emerging Trend 70 – 80 | Strong Trend 85 – 100
The trend is your friend and with all three of our Trade Triangles green, we expect to see this market continue to improve in the weeks and months ahead. As we have said in the past, copper generally reflects economic conditions, and as such is influenced by equity prices. Look for support at the $3.70 level. The market action looks as though it has created a large base to move higher in the future. Upside target zone for copper is $4.00. With a Score of +100, we are in a strong trend for this commodity. Long and Intermediate term traders should now be holding long positions in this index with appropriate money management stops.

CRUDE OIL (MARCH)
BIG PICTURE: Trading Range -55
TRADE TRIANGLES: Long-Term = Bullish | Intermediate Term = Bearish | Short-Term = Bullish
MARKETCLUB SCORING SYSTEM: Trading Range 50 – 65 | Emerging Trend 70 – 80 | Strong Trend 85 – 100
The crude oil market continues to consolidate over the $98 level and with a Chart Analysis Score of -55 today, this market has moved into a trading range. We are longer term positive on this market, however it must move over resistance at $104 to get its upside momentum into high gear. With our daily and monthly Trade Triangles in positive modes, we expect we will see further market consolidation in crude oil. Long-term traders should be long this market with appropriate money management stops.

DOLLAR INDEX

MARKETCLUB SCORING SYSTEM: Trading Range 50 – 65 | Emerging Trend 70 – 80 | Strong Trend 85 – 100
It only took the Fed opening its mouth to crash the dollar. Once again, we think that debasing the currency is a good thing for the country. This has been the policy of the United States for the past 30 years. Only our monthly Trade Triangle remains long this index and remains in a bullish mode. Long term traders should maintain long positions with the appropriate stops in place.

REUTERS/JEFFERIES CRB COMMODITY INDEX
BIG PICTURE: Trading Range +60
TRADE TRIANGLES: Long-Term = Bearish | Intermediate Term = Bullish | Short-Term = Bullish
MARKETCLUB SCORING SYSTEM: Trading Range 50 – 65 | Emerging Trend 70 – 80 | Strong Trend 85 – 100
The market action yesterday, based on Fed speak, pushed this index over the critical $316 level. This completed a classic head and shoulders base which is capable of taking this market higher. We would now look for the $316 level to act as support. Our long term Trade Triangle remains negative for this index, while our intermediate signal is green and calling for higher prices. Long-term traders should hold short positions in this index with appropriate money management stops.

This is Adam Hewison for MarketClub and I'll see you tomorrow, right here with my mid-day update. Have a profitable trading day.
Take care everyone,
Adam Hewison
President INO.com and co-founder of MarketClub.com
I got the parameters for the daily MACD (5,35,5) from "One Shot One Kill Trading" by John Netto. Been trading spot gold, silver and the major FX pairs with it seeing very good results. Wanted to share the wealth! Enjoy, and I recommend the book highly.
I do not look short term, but I do pretend to do temporary trading just to see how I would do. I actually do very well, but I just stick with silver/gold. But, Monday, I pretended to invest in JCPenney, and Netflix.
I would get out of JC Penney by next week, in fact, take your winnings and put it into netflix. As long as netflix can keep up their servers/business/etc. Movie download is the wave of the future. JCPenney is the next Sears.
Last comment on Risk...EWA ( Australia) up almost 23% too since the low of October...just looking a bit overbought...a lot of money is flowing into Australia now.
Hi Adam I think you missed it with Gold ,it is in the next up cycle ,just look at Feb to June for last 4 years
If look back 30 years, there is a different picture...but as someone told me recently, the rules have changed...
http://www.seasonalcharts.com/classics_gold.html
oops...make that 40 years.
Yes we must look at history as well ,Iam not a short term trader . I would like to see where I will be at end 2012
FXI has cleared a key resistance point too and doing great since a few days back too! FXI + EWZ + Copper + CRB = high risk back on...JNK and LQD spreads are narrowing...I wonder if we will get whipsawed out of these positions just as fast I we got back in! Triangles doing really well on this front too...
EWZ from 18 January ! YEWWWW
Hello to all and to Adam,
I bought JCP yesterday too and was so happy with it's performance. When I look at it's chart it seems to me that it created a gigantic head and shoulder formation with a neckline at $34.5. With this, it seems to me that the target zone for this is $45.5, which looks like very high. Is my analysis correct?
Thanks!
Hi Adam. I bought JC Penny yesterday on your recommendation and made a very good profit. Wahoo. But what now? Would you sell and wait for it to come down a little before investing for the long term? Thanks
A comment on something from the Dollar Index: "Once again, we think that debasing the currency is a good thing for the country. This has been the policy of the United States for the past 30 years.
Try the last 100, since 1913...
