Chart of the week - Wheat

Each week Longleaftrading.com will be providing us a chart of the week as analyzed by a member of their team. We hope that you enjoy and learn from this new feature.

In the past week of trading, I feel that the most impressive chart in the commodity markets was the July Wheat Futures.

The Wheat has been under pressure for more months than I can remember. The selling in the market has been justifiable from a supply perspective after global yields more than met expectations for global demand. An enormous crop was seen in parts of Europe, which has been the biggest weight on the overall prices. Continue reading "Chart of the week - Wheat"

MarketClub TV (4/21/11)

First off, I want to congratulate Wayne Byron on his free one year membership to MarketClub. Although Wayne is already a current member, he will receive an additional year free to his membership.

Now down to business. The dollar hit a new low today. If you watched my afternoon update, you know that gold hit our predicted level of 1,500. Still not as strong as silver, but what's next for gold?

I also talk about "stops" in tonight's video. Whether it be in regards to percentage, the dollar, or our very own trade triangles, you don't want to miss it.

You may not want to rush into google, but you will have to tune in to find out why.

Also, Cal from Toronto has a great question that we discuss. I look forward to hearing your questions next Thursday on MarketClub TV!

A Perfect Weekend for "The 52-week new highs on Friday rule"

We published this trading rule on our blog almost 8 months ago, February 10 to be exact. You can look it up if you wish. With gold making all time highs on Friday, it seems like the perfect candidate for this rule. Just remember, there are no guarantees in trading and you want gold to close at or near its highs for the day.

I learned this rule over 3 decades ago in the markets from a low-key trader named Bill. Using his special trading technique, Bill made millions and millions of dollars from his office. The best part is that this technique is still working more than 30 years after it was taught to me and why I insist on sharing it with as many traders as possible.

Bill didn't even have a name for this killer trading technique and so I named it, "The 52-week new highs on Friday rule". Continue reading "A Perfect Weekend for "The 52-week new highs on Friday rule""

Dissecting MarketClub's World Cup Portfolio

Today we are going to take a look at MarketClub's World Cup Portfolio (formerly World Commodity Portfolio) that has been tracking six markets for the past three years. I think it is fair to say that the last 36 months have presented one of the most challenging trading environments in recent memory.

So how do we do it?

I put together this very short video which is only 1 minute 45 seconds long and gives you all the information that you need to decide whether or not this approach is one that could work for you. Bear in mind that the World Cup Portfolio is a leveraged portfolio unlike our "Perfect Portfolio" which is not leveraged.

The video can be viewed right here.

Please give us your thoughts and comments on our blog. I think you will find this video very informative and educational.

All the best,

Never miss another major move again, and this headline proves it

Severe Russian drought forces grain export ban - Moscow, Russia (CNN) -- As Russia reels from the worst drought in nearly 40 years ...

The wheat market is the hottest market in the world right now due to severe drought in Russia. But how did MarketClub's "Trade Triangle" technology do in this rocket-to-the-stars market?

MarketClub's "Trade Triangle" technology received a "go long" wheat signal over 6 weeks ago. Wheat was trading at $5.17 back then. It is now trading at over $8.00 a bushel.

Wheat is one of the six key components in MarketClub's World Cup Portfolio (WCP - formerly World Commodity Portfolio). In the twelve quarters we have tracked this portfolio, wheat has been profitable in 11 out of those twelve quarters. This quarter looks to be a bonanza with profits in excess of $11,000 per contract.

In the this video I show you the move, the "Trade Triangles," and the results. It is a not to be missed video.

As always our videos are free to watch and there are no registration requirements.
