New Video: The Perfect Portfolio for 10,000 or 10,000,000 Dollars

There is a saying which has been attributed to a fictional Chinese storyteller named Kai Lung and it goes like this, “May you live in interesting times”.

Well my friends, we do live in interesting times, very interesting times. With China holding the largest share of US debt, inflation just around the corner, and no light at the end of the tunnel for the unemployed - these are interesting times.

So what’s going to be the best plan of action for your money in the next three years? Is the value of your portfolio going to be cut in half, or is it going to double? I have my game plan in place, do you have yours?

Introducing “The Perfect Portfolio”

I’ve given a lot of thought as to what’s going to happen in the next three years. Specifically, what I am going to do with my own portfolio and my own money. I have scoped out several markets that I think are going to offer excellent opportunities, no matter what happens to the economy. Yes, you heard me right. No matter what happens to the economy, I believe that this “Perfect Portfolio” will work for you in the next 36 months whether you have 10,000 or 10,000,000 million dollars.

In this video I show you exactly the number of trades you would’ve made with the “Perfect Portfolio”.

We back tested the portfolio using our “Trade Triangle” technology for 42 months through some of the toughest, most difficult markets the world has ever seen. I think you will be pleasantly surprised at the results of these two portfolios.

New Video: Gold, It’s All Falling Into Place

You may have watched our earlier video on the gold cycles and how important they are in this particular market, at this particular time. Today’s action is indicative of the cycle that we were talking about in the video as it’s pushing gold prices down into a cyclic time window.

I wanted to follow up with this new short video to show you where we believe there should be some good levels to get into a long gold position. The energy fields we’ve discussed before in gold and other markets are still very much intact and are getting wound up for the big move we’ll see later this year.

New Video: Gold Trading Update.....We've Got The Numbers!

In today's video we'll be looking at gold and one of the nice features about MarketClub is the fact that we have real time gold prices. If you're going to be trading or looking at gold (XAUUSDO) you need real time prices.

After a spectacular run up in gold values in the last decade, gold prices have slowed down and have entered into a broad trading a range. In today's video we will be looking at what are the likely scenarios that come out of this 14 month trading range.

This week (starting 7/20) could be enormously important for the yellow metal as a key level is within striking distance which will kick this market into action. In this video we give you a specific level that we are watching personally in this market.

The Bank Stress Test....Do you Believe It?

I have been scratching my head wondering why the market (in this case the S&P) has moved so high for little or no reason. The economy still appears to be very much on the defensive with unemployment rising and the business environment still on a slippery slope.

We made this video before the stress test was announced and suspect that all of the stress test leaks have already being discounted by the market.

Our new video is a follow up to our April 14th video. If you have a few minutes, please take the time to view it. I think you will find it interesting that our observations may conflict with current market trend.

With the Obama honeymoon coming to an end, we are going to see how the markets move without government influence. There has never been a government that was able to dodge a major business cycle, and this one sure is a doozy.

Key Levels To Watch For In The Gold Market

Today we're going to take a look at the gold market. While many traders have been frustrated with this market for the past several month, it has in fact performed quite well given the generally negative feeling for most markets.

While the printing press is going at full tilt in the US and the fact that most people are not involved in the gold market at the present time, it occurs to us that this market could indeed be setting itself up for a nice rally.

In our new video, I explain in detail some key levels to watch for in the gold market. If these levels are broken then you definitely want to take a position in the direction of the major trend.

Could The S&P 500 Be Running Out Of Gas?

After a spectacular rally from the lows seen last month, the S&P appears to be running into overhead resistance.

Is this the pause that refreshes, or is this the pause that reverses the market back towards the lows?

We have said for some time that we are not that confident that this rally would continue as our long-term “Trade Triangle” remained in a negative mode. In our new video we outline the key areas that we believe will shape this market in the coming weeks and months.

The video features our “Trade Triangle” technology as well as our Fibonacci tools. We will also remind you of a concept that has been around for a while, but one that you might not be aware of.

No matter what happens, you are going to see some extraordinary markets and some wonderful opportunities to make money in the next 6-9 months.

As always, the video comes from us free of charge with no strings attached.

Using Volatility In Your Market Analysis

From guest blogger Brad @ INO

As a market observer I have to say its kind of funny that a year ago after the Bear Stearns meltdown the question on everyone’s lips was whether that was the bottom in the stock market and now, as so many folks have thrown their hands up in disgust, we just might have seen it. There are several different things which lead me to think the bottom has either been put in or will be soon. In this article I’m going to outline one of them - one that helped me stay bullish into 2007, but warned me that things were changing midway through the year – and show you how you can use it.

Reading the Volatility
Volatility is one of the most useful metrics for any trader. Many have learned to use it to help in money management – to help size their positions, set their stops, or to just plain stay out of the market when it’s getting hairy. Volatility can also let us know when the market is getting ready to change states. There are two readings I look for that purpose, closing price volatility and ranges.

Closing price volatility is simply looking at how widely dispersed period closes are over a given period of time. It’s going to be high when the market is trading across a wide range or when it’s moving quickly in one direction. It will be low when the market is in a tight range or trending slowly. In my experience, this type of volatility is most interesting when at extreme readings.

Ranges are exactly that – looking at the high to low spacing. More volatile markets produce wider period ranges. Less volatile markets have narrow period ranges. Where I find this volatility most useful is when it’s transitioning from declining to rising or vice versa.

Measuring the Volatility
Each type of volatility noted above can be pretty easily tracked. Closing volatility is the subject of the extremely popular Bollinger Bands. Similarly, Average True Range (ATR) is the metric which measures period ranges. Both can be found included in many technical analysis charting packages.

Now, having said that, I need to insert an additional layer over the top of the normal studies. Recall that I said that closing price volatility is most interesting at extremes. How do we see an extreme reading for the Bollinger Bands? We look at how wide or narrow they are, then we look for extremely tight or extremely wide Bands. In terms of ATR, remember that I said turning points were important, which means looking for those times when the study is turning up from a low reading for turning down from a high one.

Take a look at this chart of the monthly S&P 500 to see the volatility in action.



Let me break down the different plots here.

The top line is a normalized version of ATR (N-ATR). That means I’ve taken the base ATR reading and divided it by the 14-period moving average to express it as a percentage. That way I can compare it historically. If I didn’t do that, we wouldn’t be able to look at it with any kind of perspective. Notice the sharp rise in N-ATR from 1987 at the point of the Crash. If I didn’t normalize the study that would only be a little bump in the line because the S&P was only in the 200s-300s at that point.

In the middle of the graph above is the monthly S&P 500 candlestick chart with Bollingers Bands overlaid.

On the bottom of the graph is the Bollinger Band Width Indicator (BWI) which does something similar to N-ATR in that it normalizes the width of the Bands so they can be viewed in a historical context. BWI is the distance between the upper and lower bands divided by the 20 period moving average (or whichever one is being used to plot the Bands). That gives us the Band width expressed as a percentage, just like the N-ATR. It lets us look for those extreme readings mentioned previously which can tell us that something very interesting is probably coming.

Is This A Bear Market Rally ...... Or a Serious Reversal?

Most of you know where I think this market is headed, this week's rally does nothing to change that.

The CRB Index, Can It Predict Inflation and Deflation?

CRB Index Video Link

There is an indicator which has been around since 1957. It has accurately forecasted every inflationary and deflationary cycle since.

This is my number one indicator for large cyclic trends. You may want to watch this index carefully should you want to invest in certain stocks and commodity related markets.

Over the last half-century, this index has seen some remarkable moves both on the upside and more recently on the downside. I believe that this is the indicator that everyone should watch. If you trade stocks or futures and are interested in world trade trends, this is the indicator to track.

The tenth revision of this index renamed it the Reuters-Jefferies CRB Index (NYBOT_CR) You can easily track this indicator everyday using MarketClub.

You can learn more about this index from our Trader’s Blog
Here is a list of the 19 markets that are included in the RJ/CRB index as implemented in the 2005 revision:

Metals: aluminum, copper, gold, nickel, silver
Energies: crude oil, heating oil, natural gas, unleaded gas
Grains: corn, soybeans, wheat
Food & Fiber: cocoa, coffee, cotton, orange juice, sugar
Livestock: lean hogs, live cattle

Ladies are putting down the lipstick and picking up the necessities.

U.S. consumers has been used to spending hundreds on self gratifying purchases, things that entertain us, make us look rich and make us attractive. However, the recession has emptied the movie theaters, the BMW dealerships and the cosmetic counters.

The things we once wanted are being put on the back burner to afford the things we really need. I learned how dire times really are when Elizabeth Arden (NASDAQ:RDEN) and Estee Lauder (NYSE:EL) came out with their sales and earnings forecast last Friday.

Take a look at this video of Estee Lauder and see where we got short this stock using our "Trade Triangle" technology. What's nice about this technology is that it can use previous market action to help you get in and ride the trend (to profit from news and earnings).

Check Out The "Trade Triangle" Returns In These Futures Markets

A year and a half ago we decided to track the results of our MarketClub "Trade Triangle" technology in six different markets. The markets we decided to trade were corn (CBOT_C), wheat (CBOT_W), soybeans (CBOT_ZS), crude oil (NYMEX_CL), gold (XAUUSDO) and finally the dollar index (NYBOT_DX). We picked these markets at random, not because we could see into the future, but because these markets historically have had prolonged and therefore profitable moves in the past. Most big markets have one or two moves every year. Our "Trade Triangle" technology allows you to catch these moves and stay on top of the market.

I have truly been surprised and amazed that we have had such big returns, especially in the last two quarters. When Adam Hewison helped co-create MarketClub, I knew he had something great... but even these results would astound anyone.

In Q3 of '08 we had a phenomenal return and one that I did not think we would see again. However, in Q4 of '08, not only did we exceed the Q3 results but we did it in different markets which is quite remarkable. This underscores our fundamental belief that investors/traders should be diversified into several different markets.

In Q4 of '08, the results we had in corn were significantly less them in Q3. Non-the less, they were positive. Our Q4 results in the wheat market were almost double that of our previous quarter's earnings. Soybeans on the other hand proved to be very positive, but not as positive as Q3 which was our best quarter ever for that commodity. The star of the show, or I should say the quarter, was crude oil. Crude oil produced an astounding gain of 40,040 per contract in the quarter. This return was practically double our Q3 results and by far our best returns of any market in this quarter. You may want to watch our Q3 movie and see what we were saying about crude oil at that time.

Gold proved to be just that, golden, as the yellow metal produced another stellar return in the quarter. Lastly, the dollar index showed it's best returns in 6 quarters.

Q4 of '08 turned out to be a record quarter producing 78,142 in gains before commissions. This was our best quarter ever and quite frankly it was more than we had expected.

The return on capital for the last six quarters was 624%. The number of positive quarters (for all six markets) was 34 out of 36, that's a 94.44%positive streak. Losing quarters for the six commodities totaled to just 5.5%. (Special note: We are trading six markets and six quarters gives us a universe of 36 individual quarterly results to judge our results by.)

In the 6 quarters we have traded the six commodities listed above, we have never seen a losing quarter dollar wise or quarter wise (no pun intended).

Certainly there is no guarantee what Q1 of '09 will bring. Certainly the markets we are in have a tendency to move, therefore they should present opportunities to make good returns in the future.

Take a look at this short video that we have prepared to show you the results. I will go through some of the actual signals that we dynamically generated with our "Trade Triangle" technology. The "Trade Triangles" are just one tool of our MarketClub service.

You may also want to look at our earlier Q3 video and check out our past signals. We use the same formula and same approach each quarter for the markets we are tracking.

As many of you know, brokers love us because we are not brokers, we simply provide educational material to help traders improve their trading. Enjoy the videos!

How Does A Trader Connect The Stock Market Dots In 2009

One of the easiest ways for a trader to determine the trend of the stock market in the new year is to simply connect the dots. In this new five minute video, I explain how you can connect the dots in any market to determine its trend. I will show you three examples of connecting the dots.

1. How to determine a downtrend.
2. How to determine an uptrend.
3. How to determine when a market is making a change of direction.

One of the key components we look for is how a market closes on a Friday or the last trading day of the week. This is when traders have to decide what they want to do with their positions. It also tells you with a high degree of probability which way the market is headed for the upcoming week. This trading secret is brought to us by Adam Hewison who learned this from years of trading on the floor of the exchange in Chicago and it is one we would like to share with you today. I feel that this technique has a lot of validity, particularly in light of today's volatile markets.
