1. No money management.
2. Picking a very public argument with someone in the business who is bigger, more powerful and swings a bigger axe. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Never Do What This Once Smart Hedge Fund Manager Did"

Today's Video Update: Is this the top of the market?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Tuesday, the 6th of August.

Every Market Deserves To Rest Once In A While
The indices appear to be on the defensive today, however that's not say we have reached a top or that the trend has changed from positive to negative. Trend changes tend to take time and usually don't happen overnight. For myself, the "line in the sand" on the DOW (INDEX:DJI) is the 15,400 level. It is at that level where I would exit my long position and move to the sidelines and await the next signal. Moving to the sidelines does not change the bigger trend picture for the DOW. I still remain long-term bullish, providing that the monthly Trade Triangle remains in the green column. Continue reading "Today's Video Update: Is this the top of the market?"

Today's Video Update: What's Ahead For August?

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 2nd of August.

July turned out to be a great month to be in stocks and our Trade Triangles caught many stocks that were headed higher last month. The question is, how will the month of August play out? Typically the month of August is a quiet month, as most traders and investors take off to enjoy the last days of summer. August could be a strong month for the stock market this year, as there are strong trends in place that are pushing stocks higher and no evidence to suggest these trends are going to reverse anytime soon.

With the Fed committed to talking the market up to the tune of $85 billion a month, I seen no change in this policy as Chairman Bernanke prepares to exit the stage in January. What will happen in 2014 is anyone's guess, as the new Fed chairperson is going to be faced with having to dig us out of the ditch that we put ourselves in.
