The Triple Whammy

2010-10-28T21:51:00.000-05:00

From the Archives. I've tried it and had some success.

Andrew Sizemore and Ben Brinneman of CSquaredTrading.com On any given day when the markets are open for business, if you walk into the office of any professional trader, you will see him seated comfortably at his desk chair, a tall mug of coffee within easy reach, with his eyes riveted unwaveringly and his focus firmly fixed upon the semi-circle of computer monitors spread out before him. Glancing at those multiple monitors, you will see a proliferation of ever-changing multi-colored streaming charts, a constant flow of real-time financial news from various news-sources, and ten or twelve categories of ever-shifting streaming data on dozens or hundreds of stocks, options, ETFs, indexes or currencies — thousands upon thousands of constantly-changing numbers, flashing RED GREEN RED GREEN RED GREEN RED GREEN.

And that’s how I appeared, too, on that morning, a few years back….. My home-office opens out onto a vast wooden deck and, through several large picture-windows, looks out over a beautiful forest — the edge of which is just a few feet away — which drops sharply down to a swiftly-flowing stream, about eighty feet below.
That particular late-summer morning, resplendent sunshine filled the world and beamed brilliantly in through every one of those windows. It was a glorious morning, and its splendor seemed to be enthusiastically ringing out throughout the world, judging from the continuous widespread flashing of GREEN lights streaming real-time on one of the monitors on my desk before me, during the pre-market trading-session. All the world was happy; and it was going to be a wonderful UP-day for the markets.
It was about 8:45 a.m. (eastern time); and with my focus fixed upon all those flashing GREEN lights, I was formulating my trading strategies for the day, as usual.
Then suddenly I gasped in bewildered astonishment as, simultaneously, every single one of the one hundred stocks on my two streamers flashed RED, and everything remained blood-red as prices immediately began plunging precipitously off a cliff.
My wife heard me gasp, and was by my side within two seconds. “Turn on the tv-news, fast!” I said to her. “Something horrible just happened!”
She did so; and as the screen fired to life, the very first image we saw was that of a fireball and massive plume of smoke, as a huge airliner crashed into the side of a giant skyscraper.
It was Tuesday, September 11, 2001 — The Day the WHOLE WORLD Flashed RED.
When I first became a professional trader, during the tech-boom of the late 1990’s, the only tools required to earn piles of profits were: (1) a computer with an internet-connection; (2) a funded brokerage-account; (3) a blindfold; and (4) some darts — almost any stock you bought automatically and inexorably went UP in price.
Then came March and April of 2000; and suddenly the former reality was turned upside-down: Buy-and-Hold became a near-certain prescription for financial disaster — almost any stock you bought inevitably and consistently went DOWN in price…..
It was an expensive education; but the traders who wished to continue in that profession eventually rejected the Buy-and-Hold strategy, and were forced to exchange their blindfolds and darts for charts and well-considered trading strategies. And the best of those traders, after expending tremendous amounts of time and effort and money on research and testing, painstakingly formulated a number of Professional Trading Techniques which generate profits almost 100% of the times when they are utilized.
By the time September 10th, 2001, came around, I and most of the professional traders I know were already in the habit of ending each day with our accounts holding 100% cash; so we were emotionally shocked but not financially impoverished by the events which took place the following morning: The Day the WHOLE WORLD Flashed RED.
And for the following 13 months, as the markets went deeper-and-deeper into a tailspin, those elite Traders comfortably and confidently extracted huge profits from the markets, each and every day — even those Traders who maintained a tendency to trade from the Long side.
How did they do it? How did they rake in consistent profits while all investors and most traders suffered through another 13 months of agony? They did it by utilizing those Trading Techniques which they had so assiduously developed.
And then they did it again, during the even-more horrible 15 months of Hell, from December of 2007 to March of 2009, as the Dow fell from 14000 to 6400.
Today we will introduce you to one of those Trading Techniques — this basic introduction will enable you to utilize the technique for yourself, and provide you with exceptional entry-and-exit points, either for multiple daytrades or for swing trades, depending upon how you set your charts. (After reviewing the technique below, we recommend that you “paper-trade” first, until you get the hang of it.)
Without further ado, allow me to introduce you to:
The Triple-Whammy Trading Technique
(IMPORTANT NOTE: The Triple-Whammy Trading Technique only works 100% perfectly if the direction of the Bollinger Bands is primarily from left-to-right, rather than primarily UP or DOWN — and this will be the case, more than 95% of the time, and with more than 95% of the stocks you might choose to trade. Stated another way, if the Bollinger Bands are angled 45 degrees or more — UP or DOWN — the technique should not be used.)
SET UP YOUR CHART: Ensure first that you have a good real-time streaming chart-package, and make your chart-settings as follows:
(1) Time Period: For DAYtrading, 30 minutes or one hour; for SWINGtrading, 3 days or longer
(2) Chart Style: CANDLESTICK
(3) Chart Frequency: For DAYtrading, one minute; for SWINGtrading, 10, 15, or 30 minutes
(4) Upper Indicators: EMA (9 period) and BOLLINGER BANDS (20 period)
(5) Lower Indicators: MACD (12, 26) and RSI (14)
Now you’re ready to proceed….. There are three essential components of this set-up:
For quick profits with a Triple-Whammy Perfect BUY (Buy-Low-then-Sell-High; or Buy-to-Cover Short-Sell), these three legs are as follows:
(1) The candlesticks will violate the lower Bollinger Band.
(2) RSI must fall into OVERSOLD territory, under 30, and preferably in DEEPLY OVERSOLD territory, under 20.
(3) The MACD (blue) line must be under the signal (red) line, and falling; and then must turn back upwards and cross the signal line. The crossover is the final confirmation — but if the turn upwards is sharp enough, you know it’s getting ready to do a crossover, so it’s best to go ahead and act, if the prior two conditions are already in place.
For quick profits with a Triple-Whammy Perfect SELL (ShortSell-High-then-Buy-Low; or Sell-to-Close Long Position), these same three legs are as follows:
(1) The candlesticks will violate the upper Bollinger Band.
(2) RSI must rise into OVERBOUGHT territory, over 70, and preferably in STEEPLY OVERBOUGHT territory, over 80.
(3) The MACD (blue) line must be above the signal (red) line, and rising; and then must turn back downwards and cross the signal line. The crossover is the final confirmation.
Utilizing this technique, you can comfortably and very profitably trade any stock, multiple times during each day, entering and exiting both Long and Short positions at the perfect points, and extracting amazing profits from the massive stream of money flowing constantly between those two Bollinger Bands.

The Bulls and Bears Battle it out

2010-06-12T20:49:00.000-05:00

The battle between the Bulls and Bears continues with very choppy trading action. The rally from a potential double bottom is cause for concern for the Bears, however the Bulls are in a similar situation as they have to prove their case with sustained market action.

In my new video, I outline some of the key levels that I think are important in the S&P 500 market. Volume continues to to be light and that is why the markets are moving around and are so volatile at the moment.

This is my first video since returning from holiday in France, but expect many more as the market rotates.

The return of the Greek drachma ... it's coming

2010-06-01T23:36:00.000-05:00

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.

My hope is that this new video will highlight some of the reasons why I believe we could be seeing some strong opportunities in this market.
The video is available for viewing now and there is no charge or registration requirement.

The S&P 500 went south and we cashed in our chips:

2010-05-05T23:07:00.000-05:00

The S&P 500 went south and we cashed in our chips

For some time now we have been concerned about the lack of upside momentum and the divergences that have been building in many key oscillators. We were also concerned that we'd reached a very important Fibonacci level which we pointed out in a recent video.

It never ceases to amaze me how these levels have worked both in the past and in the present. If you're serious about the markets, you must pay attention to these key levels as many professional traders do, and perhaps you will understand why.

In today's short video, we're looking at the S&P 500 and some of the downside targets we have scoped out using a very simple tool. We had a nice run on the upside based on our "Trade Triangle" technology and we are happy to cash in our chips and watch from the sidelines for the time being.

Gold challenging an all time high?

2010-04-15T11:20:00.000-05:00

The bull market inched higher during Sunday night trading, subsequently pushing gold to its best levels since December of last year. The sudden move down on Monday was a reminder that the 1160 area is an area of resistance for this precious metal.

In this new video on gold, I'll show you some of the indicators that you may want to look at in this market.

A Quick Peek at Crude Oil

2010-03-16T17:56:00.000-05:00

The crude oil market came under pressure on Monday and I'm disappointed that I did not have this video out to you earlier. I created the video on Sunday along with the other three videos on the S&P 500, gold, and the euro that did make it to the blog.

Nonetheless, I think you will find this video useful as it outlines our position in this market. The video is short and to the point, nonetheless I think you'll have a lot of good takeaway information.

A Technical Video Analysis of the Equity Market

2010-03-08T22:19:00.000-06:00

To many technicians, it is very clear where the equity markets will reverse, and for those folks who don't follow the technicals, this is a key reversal area in the S&P 500, the NASDAQ, and the Dow.
In my new short video I show you the exact levels that I think will reverse this market, if in fact it's ever going to reverse to the downside.
Currently the major trend remains positive for all the indices and we would only become negative on the these markets should the key levels I show you today, are broken.

Looking At Silver for All the Wrong Reasons

2010-02-23T07:16:00.000-06:00

Late in 2009 a lot of folks began asking us about buying silver instead of gold. At the time, we stated exactly how we felt, in that, why would you try to buy something that is not in the same league as gold? The two markets are completely different and are driven by a different set of emotions and fundamentals.

This is the first video that I've done on silver in quite some time, but I think it's an important one for you to see.

One of the standout features that I noticed was the fact that when gold was making new all-time highs in early December, silver failed to take out the March 2008 high. I consider this to be a negative.

In this short video you will very quickly see how we feel about silver and how you can benefit from looking at this market from a different perspective.

How To Spot Big Trends

2010-02-12T15:39:00.001-06:00

Every trader and investor I know would love to buy at the bottom and sell at the top. The reality is that this is not a winning solution, nor is it possible to do this on a consistent basis.

What we look for at MarketClub is to catch the sweet spot of the trend. The sweet spot is the 70% to 80% that’s in the middle of a trend.

I’ve been in this business a long time and know enough people in the industry to know that nobody buys the bottom and sells at the top. If they tell you that’s what they do on a consistent basis, run a country mile because they are exaggerating their capabilities.

In this short video, we look at crude oil and how you can spot the big trends using MarketClub’s “Trade Triangle” technology. I think you’ll find the video informative, educational, and it will give you an insight into how we look at the markets.

The video is free to watch and there are no registration requirements. I hope you enjoy the video and make a comment on our blog about how you feel about the crude oil market.

Steve Jobs, Apple, the iPad, and King Gillette

2010-02-05T22:42:00.001-06:00

On Wednesday, after much hype and drama, Steve Jobs walked onstage and unveiled Apple’s latest creation - the iPad. Having watched almost every key address for Apple for many years I, like many others, were disappointed that the product didn’t live up to the hype. Nonetheless, Apple will sell a boatload of these products, but not as many as the iPhone.

Upon reflection, it occurred to me that Steve Jobs is changing the whole business model of Apple and I don’t believe anyone has caught on to this yet.

In all the reports I’ve read after the launch of the iPad, I think every writer /analyst missed this key point: Steve Jobs wants to be like King Gillette.

If you don’t know who King Gillette was, you may not old enough to shave. King Gillette started his business at the beginning of the century. His business model is what I believe Apple’s business model will be in the future.

Long ago, King Gillette decided to practically give the razor away at or below cost, but sell the razor blades separately.

So here’s what I think, I think Apple wants to give the iPhone and the iPad to as many people as possible at cost or with a small profit. Remember now, AT&T subsidized the iPhone and Apple gets a slice of the pie from every AT&T customer that has an iPhone. Now why would they do that you might ask?

The key reason, I would argue, is that Apple wants the magic of recurring revenues. This is the dream of many companies - to have millions of folks paying a small amount of money every month for using a service. What makes Apple stand out is the fact that they have an army of developers who are writing code for some very cool apps. Yes, there is an app for that. In fact, there is an app for almost every idea ever thought of.

Not only has the app store been widely successful, but Apple also has iTunes, and iBooks along with iTV coming down the road. So this is what I believe Apple’s business model is going to be: with 125 million people who have giving Apple their contact and credit card information, Apple has a huge base of customers much like the newspapers and magazines did in the ’60s and ’70s, but on a much smaller scale. Now Apple can upsell products to those customers at will. The genius part about all of this is the fact that other people are creating products to be sold through the Apple store. Apple just reinvented the King Gillette model in a thoroughly modern way. Hat’s off to you Steve.

That’s my take on Apple’s stealth business model.

Now let’s take a look at the stock.

In my short video, I explain to you some key factors I’m watching that I think will make the difference in this market. If you have a few minutes, please take the time to watch this juggernaut of a stock and what I think is ahead for the market in the next 2 months.

New Video: Is the Dow in trouble?

2010-01-26T21:56:00.000-06:00

For some time now we’ve been very concerned that all the major indexes are in the “thin air” and have exceeded some key Fibonacci retracement levels. This new short video explores that and looks at a key Japanese candlestick formation that could really make a difference and be the first clue in the demise of the Dow.

I’ll also show and share with you a specific number to look for in February. Should this level be broken, then it will signal a major reversal to the downside for the Dow.

As always our videos are free to watch and there is no need to register.

It’s good to be back and it’s going to be a great year. I’m looking forward to working with you all.

Gold, Silver, Platinum…W.T.F.?!

2010-01-14T07:36:00.000-06:00

Brad Stafford here in place of Adam Hewison and I have a great new video for you. I’m sure many of you read that title and your mind went in the gutter, but today I’m going to show you a whole new meaning for this acronym and how it applies to gold, silver, and platinum.

These three markets have a lot of volume, government implications, and technicals lining up for potentially great trades. Gold makes a record high, then pulls back. Silver is inching towards an all-time high level and platinum is making people rethink their decision to go with a white gold wedding band.

Where do you stand in these markets and maybe more importantly, where should you stand?

Click here to find out what W.T.F. really stands for and what does it have to do with gold, silver, and platinum?

As the Dow Goes, So Goes the Country

2009-12-21T20:17:00.000-06:00

The Dow has managed to claw back 50% of the losses that occurred in 2007 and 2008. The question now is, what’s ahead?

In my new video I share with you some of the ideas that I’m looking at for this index. I believe we are at a very important crossroads and would not be surprised to see this market lose ground in the next 3 to 6 months. In the video I also show you exactly what I’m looking at that will confirm a major top for this index.

Has the dollar bottomed out?

2009-12-17T19:05:00.000-06:00

We have made a number of videos on the dollar index and in my latest video I show you some of the aspects we outlined in our previous video that have come to pass.

The positive divergences on the MACD indicator which we discussed last time have kicked in and pushed the dollar index higher. Longer-term major trend for the dollar index continues to be negative. In this short video you’ll see what the market is doing now and what we expect it to do in the future.

Guest from marketclub.com

2009-12-06T14:50:00.000-06:00

It’s obvious the U.S. stock markets have been rallying in a big way since March, and tons of people think they have missed the 50% - 60% rally. They get frustrated, and it’s the talk of the town, but we have seen a new sort of rally occurring. While the former is true of the U.S. rally, if you take a closer look at an emerging market and their equities, you will find that China is king! I hate to say that, but their recent performance numbers prove it. I watch a handful of companies in CHINA ever since they listed on the Nasdaq, as well as several other exchanges here in the U.S., such as ADRs (American Depository Receipts). Every single one of these companies has been doing fantastic, but it seems that people are timid when it comes to investing with them, perhaps due to the government being communist. One of the hottest topics on CNBC lately has been China, so many investors are going to be turning a watchful eye to some Chinese businesses and other places overseas as well. Once American investors start feeling a little less gun-shy, we could start seeing some significant upward moves.

These companies that I have researched, traded, and invested in have been outperforming the market on a day-to-day basis. Even when the U.S. markets are down, my account will remain flat or even go up because of the resilience of these companies. Many of these equities have a “low float” (a low number of shares outstanding), precluding that whenever a flood of buying occurs, the stock soars or vice versa the stock tanks on selling, a lot faster than an equity with a large number of shares outstanding, such as existing U.S. companies that are listed. Many of these Chinese companies are relatively undiscovered, and once investors realize what potential future growth they have, they will be drooling at their low PEs and beautiful fundamentals and piling in. I would be cautiously optimistic with 35% of my portfolio invested in China.

Trends are shifting in the world. The American consumer is not what he/she used to be. The American consumer is actually dead. Car sales last quarter in China alone were up 70% and in Brazil they were up around 50%. Meanwhile the U.S. struggled to get car sales in the positive. This means that oil will be consumed as cars are purchased, and they will seek alternative fuel methods. One of those methods is coal. Coal will rise, and oil will rise. I am finding unbelievable companies to trade and invest in that are involved in these different sectors. As global trends shift, I don’t presently, kick myself for selling Bank of America way too early after purchasing it at $2.93 back in March. I find stocks lately that are running almost 100% in days to weeks and months because of these shifting demands.

I have an entire watch list, 13 rules, and training video that I give out for free, but the most important part is my strategy that I have developed over the last four years in order to trade in and out of these companies accurately. Without this, you fellow trader, are merely shooting in the dark like a midnight cowboy as you trade, and even if you are investing, this will help you create a margin of safety on your purchases. A million-dollar-banker buddy of mine used to purchase stocks he liked at whatever price it was at. Now he calls me to verify a good entry point on a company that he loves! The strategy is named the Triple-Whammy Trading Technique. Below is a description of a piece of the puzzle and how it works.

(Important Note: The Triple-Whammy Trading Technique only works well if the direction of the Bollinger Bands is primarily from left-to-right, rather than primarily up or down)

Set up your chart: Make your chart-settings as follows:

(1) Time Period: For day trading, 30 minutes or one hour; for swing trading, 3 days or longer
(2) Chart Style: Candlestick
(3) Chart Frequency: For day trading, one minute; for swing trading, 10, 15, or 30 minutes
(4) Upper Indicators: EMA (9 period) and Bollinger Bands (20 period)
(5) Lower Indicators: MACD (12, 26) and RSI (14)

Now you’re ready to proceed.. There are three essential components of this set-up:

For quick profits with a Triple-Whammy Perfect buy (Buy-Low-then-Sell-High; or Buy-to-Cover Short-Sell), these three legs are as follows:

(1) The candlesticks will violate the lower Bollinger Band.
(2) RSI must fall into oversold territory, under 30, and preferably in deeply oversold territory, under 20.
(3) The MACD (blue) line must be under the signal (red) line, and falling; and then must turn back upwards and cross the signal line. The crossover is the final confirmation — but if the turn upward is sharp enough, you know it’s getting ready to do a crossover, so it’s best to go ahead and act, if the prior two conditions are already in place.

For quick profits with a Triple-Whammy Perfect sell (ShortSell-High-then-Buy-Low; or Sell-to-Close Long Position), these same three legs are as follows:

(1) The candlesticks will violate the upper Bollinger Band.
(2) RSI must rise into overbought territory, over 70, and preferably in steeply overbought territory, over 80.
(3) The MACD (blue) line must be above the signal (red) line, and rising; and then must turn back downwards and cross the signal line. The crossover is the final confirmation.

This strategy is available as well as an additional advanced strategy that we just put together called the VWAP Quad Boom Setup. Both of these strategies will greatly enhance your trading right away by informing you of the trading ranges that you are in and how to enter and exit your trades.

As time goes on you will notice the shift into other emerging markets and you will wonder how come I did not participate? You will eventually be able to correctly identify these companies with a little bit of research and some technical analysis, and not only that, but make a brilliant entry into the equity. Buffet even mentions entry as a part to his investment thesis, there are three things to making a wise investment. Over a little bit of time, with the right trades and investments, our patience will pay off with great rewards!

Update on the crude oil

2009-11-22T20:06:00.000-06:00

I’ve wanted to do an update on the crude oil market for a few days now, but unfortunately time got away from me. In my new video on crude oil, I update some of the thoughts I had before, but also some important elements that are still in play and could push this market significantly higher.

In this new video I outline the key support zone that I see and also highlight some other technical elements could come into play to push this market higher.

RIMM’s Big Buyback Bet:

2009-11-08T18:43:00.000-06:00

“Research In Motion Ltd. (RIMM) will spend up to $1.2 billion to buy back about 21 million of its shares, or 3.6% of its total shares outstanding. The buyback will start Nov. 9 and last for up to one year.”

That was the headline news today on Research in Motion symbol RIMM so I decided to look at the chart to see what was going on in the “real world”. When I got to the chart, one thing immediately jumped out at me and that was the negative action that this market has shown in the past several weeks. Looking at this market a little closer I was able to see that our “Trade Triangle” technology was 100% negative and that our monthly “Trade Triangle” indicator had turned negative on October 28th at $63.38. This is a major negative in my mind for this market.

In this short video I show you exactly what we expect to see for RIMM in the future. I also share with you some downside targets that we are looking at which may surprise you.

Is the NASDAQ Now in Thin Air?

2009-10-23T08:47:00.000-05:00

Of the three major indexes we track: DOW, NASDAQ and the S&P 500, only the NASDAQ is in thin air.

What do I mean by thin air? So far the NASDAQ is the only index to make it past the 50% Fibonacci retracement levels as measured from the highs seen in 2007 and the lows that were made in March of this year.

Both the Dow and the S&P 500 have rallied strongly from their March lows but have not made it over the 50% retracement level.

Many professional traders - myself included - are looking at the NASDAQ’s Fibonacci retracement as it represents a potentially key turning point for this year’s market.

While not all the pieces are in place to go short or get out of long positions, one of the first clues is being put in place today by the Japanese candlestick charts.

In my new video, I share with you the NASDAQ retracement levels, as well as one of the key components that could lead to a potential reversal to the downside.

An Alternative to Gold That You May Find Interesting

2009-10-08T14:36:00.002-05:00

There is no doubt about it - gold is getting a lot of press and media attention lately. So the question is, is the move in gold over or is it just beginning?

I don’t believe the move is over on the upside for gold, but in this new two-minute video from Adam Hewison he shares with you an alternative to gold that should do just as well for many of the same reasons. This is a big liquid market and has great upside potential and is less volatile than gold.

Two Markets to Watch

2009-09-08T06:34:00.000-05:00

By Adam Hewison of Market Club

Here are the two markets I am looking at:

1.Spot Gold - SYMBOL XAUUSDO If spot gold closes over $989.85 it will be a new high close for the year on a weekly basis. I would take this as a very bullish sign for next week. (CONFIRMED)

2. Dollar Index - SYMBOL DX The same goes for the dollar index. A close today (Friday) below 78.04 should be viewed as very negative for the US dollar.

Both markets are headed in opposite directions and both have very powerful chart formations. Look for gold to move higher, and the dollar index to move lower.

When most traders return next week from their summer hiatus and start viewing the markets more seriously, I expect these moves will begin to accelerate.

Enjoy this last hurrah of summer.
