Trending And Trading Markets – Finding The Best Indicators For Each

Today’s guest is Karen Stanlake of RangeTraders.com. Karen is going to tell us about the difference between trading and trending markets and some tools she uses in each market condition.
——————————————————————————————————————————-
Markets will either trend or trade. That is, they either move up, down, or go sideways. A common mistake is applying the wrong indicator to the wrong market condition. That would be like wearing a winter coat on a July afternoon in Phoenix!

There are some strategies that do use both types of indicators simultaneously, usually on multiple time frames. That’s beyond the scope of this article, but here are some ideas to help ensure your charts are properly attired for the market you’ve chosen to analyze. Read more

We are back in the gold market

After exiting all long positions at 1217.72 on 5/18, we reinstated long gold positions seven days later on 5/25 at 1196.57.

As many of you know who watch my videos, we use our weekly “Trade Triangles” for trend direction and our daily “Trade Triangles” for timing entry and exit points. It was those daily “Trade Triangles” that flashed a buy signal on 5/25.

Given the chaotic state of the world and all the cross currents that are running in the banking system, we would not be surprised to see gold once again climb up and challenge the $1,250 level. All of our “Trade Triangles” are green and 100% to the upside. This indicates that a strong trend is once again in place for the gold market. Read more

The return of the Greek drachma … it’s coming

The reality is, the world is in a whole mess of debt and it’s all coming due at the same time.

Make no mistake about it, the situation in Europe is dire. The problems with Greece are well known. The problems in Spain are growing, and the problems in Ireland and Portugal are about to rear their ugly heads.

I’m not going to rhapsodize about the problems in Europe, they are well known and are manifesting themselves in the price action of the world markets, however, in this short video on the euro I want to show you how monthly charts and our “Trade Triangles” tell the story and show the trend very clearly. I also show you a simple method that you can use in your everyday trading to estimate how far a move can go. Read more

One year later, reality sets in

It’s been just a little over a year since we had our first major buy signal for the S&P 500 at 888.70 on 5/4/09. Since that time, the S&P 500 has climbed approximately 61.8% from the lows that were seen in early March of ’09 and the highs that were seen in October of ’07.

We take our “Trade Triangle” technology very seriously and this signal today (5/25) at 1044.50 is our first major sell signal since 7/1/08 at 1,272.00 and should not be ignored.

There are a whole host of problems that are coming due around the world that will have negative consequences for the equity markets. The problems in Greece and Europe are well known and are likely to continue for the balance of the year. This is going to have a negative impact on markets in general. Read more

4 Steps to Mental Toughness for Short Term Traders

As all MarketClub members know, psychology is a major factor in both investing and short term trading.  Chris Dunn, from the Emini Academy, is a major proponent of developing the proper mental mindset of a professional trader, and this week he’s contributing a helpful post on four steps you can take to have a strong trading mindset.
————————————————————————————————————————–
In my opinion, day trading is top on the list of mentally stimulating professions.  It requires a mental toughness unparalleled by any other business.  For example, the influx of emotions and sensations felt by someone in a short-term trade can bring on fear stronger than that of certain death, or a euphoric sensation as if you just inherited a windfall of profits.

To become a professional trader with the ability to thrive in all market conditions, one must develop understanding and control over their personal psychological strengths and weaknesses.  In this article, we will talk about 4 steps that can help you develop a strong trading psychology and confidence to become a top-level day trader.
