When Someone Is Desperate To Sell $750 Million Of Stocks

Posted on by The INO.com Team

There was a rumor yesterday that one fund or individual decided to dump three-quarters of a billion dollars of U.S. equity market exposure in 1 second. This action created a complete collapse of all liquidity in the S&P 500 e-mini futures contract - the world's most liquid equity exposure vehicle.

That was yesterday's news ….

That negative action in all the equity markets pushed the Dow down 252 points for the year with the S&P 500 and NASDAQ barely changed since last December.

As many of you know who read this blog, we have been on the sidelines for quite some time in most of the markets. And this stems from having a game plan and a sound winning approach to the markets.

So many investors trade based on emotion. Emotional trading is the fastest account killer I know, yet it still reeks havoc on investor's portfolios every year.

One of the easiest ways to avoid emotional trading is to use a well designed and tested portfolio approach. Now, just to be clear, we are not swinging for the fences with some get-rich-quick scheme. No, what I am referring to is MarketClub's Internet portfolio which produced gains in 2013 of 65%.

So far through the third quarter of 2014, this portfolio is in the positive column with a return of 14.6%. This puts MarketClub's Internet portfolio returns for the year ahead of the likes of Carl Icahn, with 10.98%. Warren Buffet with 10.43% and Julian Robertson with a 10.13% return and a host of other well-known billionaire money managers including Edward Lampert whose fund is down -37.5% for the year.

When you compare the returns of our Internet portfolio, to the market and the Billionaire fund managers I think you would agree that our returns have been excellent.

Our Internet portfolio is very easy to track and implement into your trading as there are only five stocks to follow. We share with you the key levels that will make any of the five stocks we track reverse … it's better than real-time! We also share with you sound money management stops we use to protect capital.

Here are those five stocks in our Internet portfolio:

Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)
Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB)
Yelp Inc. (NYSE:YELP)
Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO)
Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX)

The great part about this approach is that you can place the orders yourself with a broker and then go about whatever you enjoy doing most. Whether it is playing golf, tennis, cycling or going to work, you now are afforded the time to do what ever you want. You do not have to watch the market every second of the day and become emotionally invested.

Q4 promises to be a very interesting quarter lots of opportunities. I sincerely hope that you can take advantage of MarketClub's Internet portfolio signals and see just how it relieves stress of trading from your mind and body.

Every success,

How To Be Positioned In A Volatile Market

Posted on by The INO.com Team

The last few weeks have been very volatile in the markets, with triple digit swings seeming to be the norm in the Dow. The question is, how can you position your portfolio and reduce your risk in a market like this?

Well in some ways, it's easier than you can imagine. Here at MarketClub, we always advocate diversification and spreading the risk. An example of that would be MarketClub's Internet portfolio that we make available to all members on a daily basis.

Presently, this portfolio has only a one position in the market. This means that we have 80% of our capital safely on the sidelines. With 20% of our capital working in the marketplace, it is easy to sleep at night and not have to worry about these giant up and down swings. Using the Trade Triangles, much of the guess work is taken out of the equation.

Here are the 5 stocks in the Internet portfolio: Continue reading "How To Be Positioned In A Volatile Market" →

Was Yesterday A Harbinger Of Things To Come?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

There's no doubt about it, yesterday was a very ugly day in the stock market. Is this a harbinger of things to come?

Now that the market has the Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) IPO out of the way, there really seems to be no more magic to propel this market higher, at least in the short term.

Yesterday CNBC reported that the Russell 2000 index had flashed the "death cross". A "death cross" occurs when the 50-day moving average crosses below the 200-day moving average. Previously this has not been a big deal with this particular index, as it has always recovered a short time later. In light of what's going on and geopolitical concerns, this time may be different and may represent a harbinger of things to come.

The Middle East is another negative for stocks, as late yesterday Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Bahrain joined the US in a series of airstrikes against Islamic State positions in Syria along the Iraqi border. How long will it be before the US has boots on the ground?

As the markets chop around and seem to lack direction, sometimes the best thing to do is just be patient and wait for something to really make the markets move. Yesterday I discussed negative divergences, as we saw many of the formations setting up which can be an early warning signal of things to come.

How To Successfully Trade MarketClub's Internet Portfolio

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Today, I'm going to be looking at MarketClub's model Internet portfolio. This portfolio consists of five stocks that are in the Internet business, Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB), Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX), Yelp Inc. (NYSE:YELP), Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO), and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN).

In this short video, I'm going to share with you the MarketClub trading strategy that is used to trade the Internet portfolio. You will see just how easy and how unemotional it is to trade this way. One of the biggest challenges investors have is managing their own emotions. In fact, emotions are the number one account killer for most investors. The Internet portfolio is an example of how MarketClub's tools can help eliminate emotions and provide an avenue to do well - no matter what happens to the market.

Like everything in life, there are no guarantees that this portfolio will continue to make money. However, the odds certainly are in the investor's corner when employing this approach.
