The following is an article I came across and parallels a piece I am currently working on in a similar vein. The article below gives a glimpse into what is going on, but does even scratch the surface. If you read to the end when it talks about the sub prime mortgage meltdown, ask yourself:…
Imagine not having access to any financial news
| August 26, 2009 | Posted by admin under Intro to Trading, Techncial Analysis Tutorials |
Imagine not having access to any financial news stories. The only information you have about the market is the market itself. Would you be a better trader or a less successful trader? I think you would be a better trader. I have often said that the market is the best news provider in the world.…
EUR/USD Trade Set-Up Aug 25
| August 25, 2009 | Posted by admin under Day Trading Ideas, Swing Trading Ideas, Techncial Analysis Tutorials |
The pair has converged into a triangle like pattern after strong moves last Friday. In the triangle I have not actually included the extremes of that day in the triangle, although they do actually connect quite nicely. These extremes have been left out as they were due to a news event which will not repeat…

I don’t recommend having “bet” positions placed before the numbers come out – especially the Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) report. But I do recommend being…

So this “Cash for “Clunkers” has been getting loads of coverage, and yet a few very key details seem to have been left out in all these discussions. First off, let me voice my major concern.
