  • Day Trading - Be Independent In Your Trading

    In day trading, the ability to be independent is even more important than in other life arenas. That is because in the day trading arena, there is no such thing as “absolute truth” and there is no end of opinion, conjecture, rumor and fantasy. Hope and Greed play their part too, and overall create a landscape of illusion wherein a person with no independent opinion of his/her own will be swept away to rapid destruction…

  • Stock Market Index Trading: Dow Jones Analysis 2008

    This stock trading video gives a brief technical chart analysis of the stock market, specifically, the Dow Jones Industrials Index for January 2008.

It is currently on some very major support levels, and hence it needs to hold these levels in order to avert a major collapse to the 11, 650 level, from where even further stock market declines could be easily seen. The negative side of this story is that we appear to have a fully developed and completed head and shoulders pattern, implying the target just stated. However, on the positive side, there are a number of major support points coming in on various time-frames, right at where the market is trading at the time of this trading video.

  • Online Trading: Why I HATE Economists!…

    During my investment banking career, economists were for me public enemy number one! I never saw what the big deal was about. Most of what they say is completely unprovable. It is always after the fact, and their explanations of forex, stock market or commodity market moves are always retrospective.

    The essential problem is that these economic pundits are providing reasons AFTER the fact for why the market has done what it has already done, and they always look good riding on a trend that they imagine is likely to carry into the future.
