It's The Market Nobody Loves

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Monday, the 25th of November.

As we start off this shortened Thanksgiving trading week, the bulls have a lot to be thankful for. This has been a very profitable year for trading stocks from the long side.

It would appear as though a great many well-known money managers have missed being fully invested during the stock market's latest move for one reason or another. Are these same money managers going to jump into the market before year's end? And if they do, is that going to improve their returns for their funds? So will they or won't they jump into a market that nobody loves? Continue reading "It's The Market Nobody Loves"

Game On! The Dow Closes Over 16,000

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Friday, the 22nd of November.

With yesterday's record high close of 16,009.99 in the Dow (INDEX:DJI), it would appear as though the stage is set for further gains in this index. Many of the stocks that make up this index are doing very well, stocks like Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), American Express (NYSE:AXP), Bank of America (NYSE:BAC), Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS), Home Depot (NYSE:HD), JP Morgan (NYSE:JPM) and so on. Only one stock in the Dow 30 Index appears to be in a full negative trend according to the Trade Triangles and that stock is Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO).

Has Crude Oil Bottomed Out? Maybe.

Today, I am going to take an in-depth look into the world of crude oil. The question on most traders' minds is, has this market finally bottomed out?

As you can see on the chart, crude oil prices have been had been steadily moving higher for the most part of this year, until they peaked in September. We see (1) a strong supporting trend line which hit three places on the chart, making it a valid trend line of some importance. This trend line was dramatically broken in October and since then, the price of crude oil has fallen from over $100 a barrel to around the $94 a barrel level. Two events indicated this could happen, the (2) double top and divergence on the chart and (3) the divergence on the RSI indicator. Continue reading "Has Crude Oil Bottomed Out? Maybe."

Measuring How High The Indices Can Go

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 18th of November.

Over the weekend I took some time and looked at the DOW, NASDAQ, and the S&P 500 indices. I wanted to measure just how high these indices could potentially go. All three indices have been on a tear this year, with the DOW making 57 new highs this year alone. On average, that is a new high every four days, which is pretty remarkable.

Now please remember that these are estimates based on technical analysis, they are not written guarantees carved in stone. As with any trade or investment strategy, you need to have an exit plan (money management) in case events change, whether over time or abruptly.

Just like any analyst, unforeseen events can change my analysis on the market. However, if my predictions remain correct, please do congratulate me and tell all of your friends (just joking on this one!).

Let's get started looking at the three indices and measuring the potential up-moves in all three major markets.

I would love to hear what your take is on the major indices and what you think can happen to the markets. How high, how low, agree, or disagree, let us hear your voice. It is always great to chat with other traders and hear their thoughts even, if they differ from my own.

Every Success,
