Daily Video Update: Mixed economic signals, signal a market that is seeking direction

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 15th of August.

I have no trend, I have no trend, seems to be this markets mantra at the moment. It would appear as every time we have positive news for the market, we have negative news that follows which pretty much negates all of the positive news. That seems to be the major theme for August. Take today for example.

(GOOD NEWS) Industrial Production in US Rises 0.6% on Autos, Utilities
(GOOD NEWS) Home builder Confidence in US Increases to Five-Year High

(BAD NEWS) Staples Net Falls 32% on Weak International Sales; Cuts Year View
(BAD NEWS) Slipping international sales zap Deere 3rd-qtr earnings

I could go on, but I think you get the picture.

Eventually, the stalemate will be over and the market will resume in a direction for more than one day. We are relying on our Trade Triangle Technology as we know mathematically that the odds are on our side when we use this approach. I hope you were able to catch yesterday's video as we highlighted a major stock, and I stepped you through every signal since 2004! The results speak for themselves.

Stay tuned to today as I have a special surprise for all MarketClub Members that will come at the end of today's video.

Now, let's analyze the major markets and stocks on the move using MarketClub's Trade Triangle Technology.

Daily Video Update: Where do we go from here?

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 14th of August.

At the moment there appears to be a lack of conviction by both the bulls and the bears to move this market one way or another. This indecision has also registered in our Trade Triangle technology with many of the major markets now indicating a sideways to mixed trend.

It has been this way for quite some time and I think it is wearing a lot of investors and traders down. Normally, when you have indecision like we are witnessing in the markets they are usually preparing for some big moves later in the year. The big moves may begin after Labor Day, when many traders and investors return from their summer hiatus. Also, it should noted that volume has been extremely light in many of the markets which underscores the lack of participation by both the public and professional traders.

We are also going to be looking at a buy and hold strategy compared to a strategy using MarketClub's Trade Triangle Technology. It's on a major stock that everyone knows. The results may surprise you so stay tuned.

Daily Video Update: Game On - Politics, the Olympics, and the markets

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 13th of August.

We are back again on Monday and seeing the markets on the defensive from where they closed on Friday. This past weekend we witnessed the closure of the summer Olympics, with an impressive medal score not only for the United States, but also for Team GB.

This past weekend Mitt Romney announced that he has picked his VP running mate, Paul Ryan, a 42-year-old Congressman from Wisconsin. Regardless of one's own political beliefs, we say Game On! What happens now in this race for the presidency is going to have a direct bearing on the markets, so we should all be paying close attention.

On the other side of the pond, BOE Governor King was quoted this weekend in the Sunday Mail (an English Newspaper) as saying he sees, "no obvious end in sight" for Europe's crisis. It would appear as though the European problem, as well as the slow down in China, is not on the radar of most traders at the moment.

Europe, China, and the upcoming general election will give traders a lot to think about. As always, we are going to rely on our Trade Triangles to point to where the markets are headed in the months ahead.

Daily Video Update: Mr. Reality comes a calling on the markets

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 10th of August.

Yesterday we talked about how markets sometimes go from reality to fantasy, and clearly today's news from China was more a reality check for the markets. Logically, you cannot have a recession in Europe and the US economy barely limping along and have Chinese exports jump off the charts.

Europe and the United States are the principal customers for China to sell its goods. If Europe and the US are not buying because of economic conditions, how can China keep growing its economy at a record pace?

Today could mark the start of a reality check for the markets. How the markets close today will give us more clues as to whether or not the market is putting in a top or biding its time to move higher.

How the major markets closed last Friday: S&P 500 - $1,390.99, DOW - $13,906.17, NASDAQ - $2,967.15. Should we close below these levels today, we believe that the market could once again reflect reality and head lower.

We will also examine in detail how our Trade Triangles handled the moves in Research in Motion (RIMM) and J.C. Penny (JCP). Both of these stocks are on the move today for different reasons.

Now, let's analyze the major markets and stocks on the move using MarketClub's Trade Triangle Technology.

Daily Video Update: Are you getting a little uneasy about the markets?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

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

Call it a gut feeling, an intuition, or whatever, but I'm getting a little uneasy with the equity markets, and here's the reason why: Our Trade Triangles are sending out mixed signals and have been for sometime. The market has been unable to push into a +100 Score, and so far has failed to move into a -100 reading. Only our long-term Monthly Trade Triangle has consistently stayed on the negative side of the markets, despite the recent short-term rally.

Long-term indicators are important, as they tend to be correct more often than not and the markets have other major problems that are being swept under the rug at the moment. Europe is still a disaster, cities in America are going bankrupt, and huge amounts of debt have not even been addressed by either political party.

With all this as a back drop, tread carefully in the markets. We are not out of the woods yet and we may still have another reason to yell "TIMBER".
