Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 12th of July.

With record high closes in the DOW and the S&P 500 yesterday, this is not the time to be short the main indices going into this weekend. I will be using our 52-week high strategy to catch a quick move and you can see the rules on how to play in today's video.

The DOW triggered a Green Weekly Trade Triangle on 7/10/13 at 15,340.09 signaling a resumption of the uptrend.

The S&P 500 triggered a Green Weekly Trade Triangle on 7/10/13 at 1,654.19 signaling a resumption of the uptrend.

The NASDAQ triggered a Green Weekly Trade Triangle on 7/8/13 at 3,488.31 signaling a resumption of the uptrend.

On Monday, our weekly (intermediate trend) Trade Triangle kicked in and gave a resumption of trend buy signal for the NASDAQ index. The signal came in at 3,488.31 confirming that both the intermediate and longer-term trends are now in unison, signaling a move to the upside.

Something's Got to Give in the Precious Metals Market

Posted on by admin

The Gold Report: Heiko, in late June gold had its biggest weekly drop in two years. What's your take on that?

Heiko Ihle: It was set off by far-reaching talk of a slowdown in quantitative easing. However, an awful lot of U.S. dollars are still floating around and the price of gold is pegged to the U.S. dollar. In the long run, companies can't sell gold for less than it costs to take it out of the ground. At some point something has to give.

TGR: So, what's going to give?

HI: Either the cost of mining or the price of gold. Quite frankly, the cost of mining has been reasonably sticky thus far.

TGR: Can miners profitably mine gold at $1,200/ounce ($1,200/oz) and silver sub-$20/oz? Continue reading "Something's Got to Give in the Precious Metals Market" →

Today's Video Update: Clear Cut Trends Are Emerging

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 9th of July.

NASDAQ Flashes A Buy Signal
On Monday, our weekly (intermediate trend) Trade Triangle kicked in and gave a buy signal for the NASDAQ index. The signal came in at 3,488.31, confirming that both the intermediate and longer-term trends are now in unison signaling a move to the upside. The NASDAQ could be a precursor of trends to come on both the DOW and the S&P 500, only time will tell.

Crude Oil Takes A Breather
Do not be fooled by this momentary pause in the price of crude oil, with the trend clearly established to the upside, I am looking for new highs in this market. With a target zone of $110 per barrel for crude, I see no reason to abandon long positions and want to hold firm for longer term traders. A close in the August contract over $103.50 this week will represent a new high close and a continuation of the uptrend. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Clear Cut Trends Are Emerging" →

Today's Video Update: Stocks Rise Ahead of Earnings

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 8th of July.

Earlier today we posed the question, "Are the odds in your favor for a up market in July?" Well, it certainly seems so, given this mornings trading action, all the indices are on the plus side of the ledger so far for the month.

Today's Profit Taking In The Crude Oil Market Doesn't Change The Trend
Crude oil is seeing a little bit of profit-taking coming into the market after its recent sharp run up. I have an upside target zone of $110 level for crude and I expect the upward trend to continue for a while longer. Look for any pullbacks to present buying opportunities rather than a shorting opportunity. The trend is clearly established to the upside, so trade accordingly.

Weekly Futures Recap W/Mike Seery

Posted on by The INO.com Team

We’ve asked Michael Seery of SEERYFUTURES.COM to give our INO readers a weekly recap of the Futures market. He has been Senior Analyst for close to 15 years and has extensive knowledge of all of the commodity and option markets.

Michael frequently appears on multiple business networks including Bloomberg news, Fox Business, CNBC Worldwide, CNN Business, and Bloomberg TV. He is also a guest on First Business, which is a national and internationally syndicated business show.

Grain Futures--- The grain market today continued its bearish momentum with soybeans for the November contract down another $.21 at 12.30 a bushel as private estimates are starting to come out with 44 bushels per acre which could create a 3.40 billion bushel crop which would be their all-time record crop pressuring the new crop soybeans as the weather has been outstanding in recent weeks. Remember soybeans are trading far below their 20 and 100 day moving average looking to break major support at $12 and in my opinion I do believe prices are headed substantially lower here in the near future as the weather in the Midwest is absolutely astonishing with mild temperatures and constant rain and I believe record crops across the board in the next 3 months are coming.
