Continue To Conquer The Market with this ETF

Continue To Conquer The Market

Guest article

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

You only have to watch my earlier videos to see that it has performed very well this week in gold as well as the crude. In today's short video I want to share an ETF that is setting up nicely and should be giving us a buy signal using the same strategy that we used in the earlier gold and crude oil videos.

This ETF which closely follows the Swiss Franc (symbol FXF) is one you may want to take a look at. As you may be aware, the Swiss Franc is independent of the euro zone and is a separate currency that is backed by the Swiss government.

I think you'll enjoy this short lesson as it will reinforce the two previous lessons on how to use this indicator. In case you missed our earlier lessons, you can watch the gold and the crude oil videos on the INO Trader's Blog.

As always our videos are free to watch and there are no registration requirements. Feel free to discuss them on the INO blog, Tweet them to your friends, and e-mail anyone that you think could benefit from these educational trading lessons.

All the best,

Gold, Silver, and the Dollar

Guest article

There is a potentially big setup in precious metals sector along with the dollar which looks like its about to unfold. Since mid-October of last year gold started to show signs of distribution selling. Only a month later in November silver started warning us that some big players were taking some profits off the table also. Distribution selling is easy to spot on the charts. In short you will see heavy volume selling accompanied with strong moves to the downside.

Now if we look at the US Dollar chart we see the exact opposite price action. We see sharp rallies during October and November of last year. It’s normal to say that gold and silver move inverse to the Dollar so this price action makes perfect sense.

The interesting thing with the US Dollar is that

How to Trade Crude

Guest Article: 3 Smart Indicators To Trade Crude Oil With Synergism

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that we have "Silly Season" behind us, it's time to get serious about trading

In today's video we are looking at crude oil. This market has been a disappointment to a lot of traders as has remained in a broad trading range for the past 18 months.

The current trading range will eventually be broken and the market will move in the direction of the breakout. While our long-term indicator, the monthly "Trade Triangle" continues to be positive, short-term "Trade Triangles" are indicating weakness. With a score of -60 for February crude oil, we expect that this market will be range bound in the short term.

One of the indicators we discussed in an earlier video is in an oversold condition, indicating a potential rally from current levels could be at hand. That being said we would wait for some other combination of indicators to confirm that a move is underway.

For the past 18 months the best way to trade crude oil has been with the use of an oscillator indicator. The one we're looking at in today's video clearly shows you where the lows and highs are coming in and indicates a potential market bounce from current levels.

We expect that after such a long period of sideways action, almost 18 months, that the crude oil market will come alive and present some great trading opportunities in Q1 and Q2.

Reversal in Silver and Dollar

Guest Article

SPY – Daily Chart & Moving Averages
This chart shows the big picture. Currently we are in a strong uptrend and looking to buy significant pullbacks to key levels of support, and that is exactly what we had last week.

The market pulled back to a level which has support:
1. It pulled back to the 14 day moving average
2. It pulled back to the previous weeks high
3. It pulled back to a support trend line

Each of these levels happen are at the same level and each type of support will attract a different type of trader, meaning there should be a lot of individuals covering their shorts and or buying at that point.

HOW LONG CAN THE S&P 500, PRECIOUS METALS, & BONDS RALLY?

Guest Article

With the holiday season in the rear view mirror and volume slowly creeping back into the marketplace, I can’t help but wonder what lies ahead. The optimist in me is hopeful that the economy will continue to repair itself and the financial issues that plague the federal government, state government, and local governments will just go away as the economy rebounds. The only problem with my hope is that massive debts and deficits do not simply disappear and I fear the problem will be a long and lasting one.

Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke indicated that unemployment numbers are likely to remain stubbornly high for an extended period of time. He also made it clear that Quantitative Easing II was necessary and needed to be continued in a vain attempt to keep interest rates low. Since its inception, treasury rates have done nothing but increase which begs the question whether the program is really doing anything it was intended to do.

In addition to our domestic debt issues, unemployment claims, and poor housing market we find that the crisis in Europe while somewhat muted, continues to manifest in a negative fashion. Nearly every where we look we are surrounded by fundamental issues which directly impact risk assets. These issues have been constant for quite some time and the S&P 500 has shrugged them off and powered higher. The S&P 500 has put on quite a run since the March 2009 lows, and while we have had several corrections and a “flash crash” along the way, we have yet to see a major correction turn into bearish market conditions.

Is price action today an early warning sign that lower prices await us in the equities market. Is the U.S. Dollar going to breakout above the 50 period moving average and challenge the 83 price level on the weekly chart? read on

Tradeable 2011 Trends

Guest Article

It was a great first week in the market for 2011. Volume picked up as traders slowly return from holidays focusing on the markets again. Looking forward volume should continue to expand because there will be more traders in front of their terminals excited to see what type of money they can make in 2011.

Let’s jump into what happened last week. On Friday the market generated a short term trading signals to go long SP500, Dow, Nasdaq or Russell 2k. This trade seemed to fall on a perfect day because if we look back over last year’s weird trading characteristics typically if you were to buy on a Friday and hold a position until Monday it would have netted you a profit. Well on Friday the market had a very nice intraday pullback to a level which there was strong support so we bought in with a small position.

Let’s jump into the charts for a visual of what I am talking about…

Gold Break Down

Gold Break Down
Guest Article
-----------------------------------------------------

Subject: Little known technical indicator has been nailing the price swings in gold.

-------------------------------------------------------

Happy New Year everyone!

This is my first video for 2011 and I think it's an important one to
kick off the New Year.

As you well know, gold took one of its biggest drops in quite some time
on the 4th of January and so far it has failed to appreciably recover.

So what's ahead for this most precious metal?

-------------------------------------------------------

MarketClub is growing so much that even Reuters was seen quoting us on
1/06/11:

"TECHNICAL BUYING

On charts, gold cut early losses, bouncing off lows at around $1,362 an
ounce, a key support level in line with a series of lows set in
December, said Adam Hewison, president of MarketClub.com.

Hewison said gold's bounce up from session lows signals that it has
found support after falling this week.

'Every time when gold had gotten down to these levels, it's very close
to making a reversal higher,' he said.

Gold has risen toward its record $1,430.95 an ounce level three times
since November but failed each time."
-------------------------------------------------------
Take a few minutes and watch how this one little indicator has been
catching the swings in gold incredibly well for the last several months.
You may or may not be familiar with this little known profit maker, but
if you're not yet using it you certainly want to learn how to profit
from it in 2011.

This video will show you how:
