Just Like The Weather, Markets Change

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Thursday, the 23rd of January.

The DOW Is Lower On The Week

Today's market is a reality check for many traders who just finished digging out from the new mini ice age we are witnessing here in the East (what ever happened to global warming?), as they returned to their trading desks in full force today. Today we witnessed the weekly Trade Triangle turn red for the DOW, which could be a harbinger of things to come.

Gold Is Higher On The Week

In contrast to the indices moving lower, gold prices are once again attracting attention and trending higher. Many investors are adding a little more of the precious metal to their portfolios. Also, this metal could be on the cusp of a major acceleration and I will explain what I mean in today's video. Continue reading "Just Like The Weather, Markets Change" →

Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) Implodes

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Best Buy Co., Inc. (NYSE:BBY) was one of the top performing stocks in 2013. Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) reported on Thursday that total revenue and sales at its established US stores fell in the all-important holiday season due to intense discounting by rivals, supply problems for key products and generally weaker traffic in December. After starting out the trading year of 2013 at $12, this stock performed like the energizer bunny and kept going and going and going for most of the year. It hit a high of $44.60 on November 13th, a month before the all-important holiday season reality set in.

What Does This Company Do?

Best Buy Co., Inc.(NYSE:BBY) operates as an e-commerce and physical retailer of consumer electronics in the United States, Europe, Canada, and China.

Was Best Buy's Implosion Predictable?

No one can predict with 100% certainty what's going to happen in any given market. What technical analysis can do, and does do very well, is put the odds in your favor and give you a high degree of confidence that something is going to happen. It also acts to protect your capital when things go wrong in a market. That is done through the use of money management and discipline, both of which I talk about frequently on this blog. Let me illustrate for you how two simple technical tools would have helped you avoid today's disaster in Best Buy. Continue reading "Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) Implodes" →

The Big Market Vortex

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Friday, the 10th of January.

It seems to me as we are finally back to double digit temperatures here in the Mid-Atlantic there is a different feel in the market so far this year. As we ended 2013, stocks were buoyant and moving to new highs and as we move into the second week of trading in the new year, stocks seem to have lost some of their pizzazz.

Major Indices

While the major indices are still in a positive upward trend longer-term, it is increasingly apparent that they may just be running out of gas and upside momentum in the short-term. I'll be examining the three major indices today and share with you my take on what's happening in each index. Continue reading "The Big Market Vortex" →

On My Radar Today - Solarwinds, Inc. (NYSE:SWI)

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Today, I'm going to be analyzing the stock of SolarWinds (NYSE:SWI).

SolarWinds, Inc. designs, develops, markets, sells, and supports enterprise-class information technology (IT) and infrastructure management software to IT professionals in various organizations worldwide.

Solarwinds SWI Analysis

The most outstanding chart feature to me is the 10-month long term downtrend line, which has seen a breakout to the upside. This trend line touches three price points, making it a valid and important trend line. Continue reading "On My Radar Today - Solarwinds, Inc. (NYSE:SWI)" →

3 Stocks To Watch This Week

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Monday, the 6th of January.

2 Stocks To Watch

Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY), developer, manufacturer and seller of pharmaceutical products worldwide, had a new monthly Trade Triangle today at $51.62 and in doing so also broke above an 8-month long-term downtrend line. This stock is clearly in an uptrend and I would want to treat it and approach it from the long side.

My upside target for this stock is $57-$58. As always, I will be using the weekly Trade Triangle for any subsequent exits and entries.

Information technology (IT) and infrastructure management software company, Solarwinds (NYSE:SWI), appears to have completed a 61.8% Fibonacci correction from its highs set back in September of 2012 around the $60 area. Continue reading "3 Stocks To Watch This Week" →
