Are You Ready For Online Stock Trading?

fssimageDecades ago, stock trading was limited to only a few – the very wealthy and the stockbrokers who manage their portfolios but with the technological innovations made on this field, more people have realized the potential of earning big bucks even with their small savings and have engaged in trading of stocks. Online stock trading have made this venture more accessible to investors who wants to have a more personal approach when it comes to managing their investments. With just a click of the mouse, you can check online stock trading newsletters for updates on market trends and a wealth of information pertaining to the stock market to help you out.

A good stock market education is important to equip you with the basics on how stock trading works. It also helps you get the kind of information you need, what to look out for, and the importance of daily stock analysis and other financial reports. You can get a stock trading training online that also offers simulation where you can put into practice what you have learned before going for the real deal. These trainings will provide you with the tools you need to help you determine what stocks to buy as well as when it is time to let go of these stocks in order for you to get a good profit.

Stock trading training is important but it should not stop there as this business is volatile and the risks are quite high. You do not want to be caught off guard and be on the losing end. The important thing to remember is that while there are risks, there are ways to keep the risks low. Keep yourself informed on how the market is doing by regularly watching business channels, monitoring the stock market, and reading online stock trading newsletters. Every second counts when you are into trading of stocks and you have to be prepared for any eventuality.

You have to keep in mind that as much as there is the possibility of losing there is also the chance of getting a huge profit. That is why it is important that every decision you make is based not on emotions running high but on what you have learned from your research. Daily stock analysis, daily stock picks, market trends, tips, and trading ideas can help you make a sound decision. Setting up some parameters will help give you direction on what needs to be done when certain factors come up that runs contrary to what you have planned. Fear of losing keeps you on your toes so to speak but it should not be the deciding factor.

Stock trading is said to be not for the faint of heart. It may be true but it should also not stop you from engaging in this business. There are a lot of tools available to help you out in this venture. Invest in a good online stock trading training and programs that will also allow you to practice trading in paper until you feel comfortable and confident to try online trading of stocks for real. Subscribe to online stock trading newsletters and do your research before making your first stock transaction. Start small and be patient.

Making Big Money By Looking At The Seasons Of Investment

When it comes to investing, many people focus their attention solely on finding the “perfect” strategy. What many people fail to recognize, however, is the fact that all forms of investment markets have “seasons” just like the very predictable weather patterns of spring, summer, fall and winter.

For example, it is fairly well-known that election year stock markets perform very well. If we step back, and analyze the performance of the stock market through out its documented history, we will see a very predictable pattern of performance.

For example, years ending with 0 through 5 are poorly performing or negative stock market years. Years ending with 6 are generally transition years, with years 7 through 9 being strong to extremely strong. There are, of course, other factors affecting investment seasons, such as interest-rate cycle and peak spending cycles, and there are no guarantees that any particular year will achieve a specific performance target. However, rather than simply looking for a strategy (which obviously would have worked for the author during an appropriate cycle), it is important to match strategy with the broad trends.

While it is obviously no guarantee of success, your odds will increase that a long stock strategy will be successful in the last part of the decade, while selling options or purchasing money market instruments may be a better strategy for the early part of a decade.

I have found this over the years to be the most effective way of managing the markets. Regardless, always keep in mind the protection of your capital, and always invest accordingly.

Bulletin – October 27, 2007 – What Now on Gold?

Since that time, and especially quite recently, gold has rallied strongly, and has risen past its 2006 high to a present price of approximately $753.99. Oil has also risen in a spectacular fashion into the high $80’s per barrel. These support my conclusion in another article I penned for this website, published on February 26, 2007, Inflation and the Stock Market: Does Anyone Remember the Seventies?, that the gold price, oil and oil service companies stock price booms we have witnessed for the last few years are quite similar to the booms in like instruments last seen during the late 70’s. However, that boom in the late seventies and early eighties represented a long term peak in oil prices around $40 – per barrel and the gold price around $850.

Gold is now, over 25 years later, and after a brutal long-term bear market, approaching that peak area of $850 per ounce reached previously in 1980. This current powerful leg up in the gold market stimulated just lately by the subprime crisis, the ensuing credit and housing crunch, and what I believe is the underlying inflation in some sectors of the economy means one of three scenarios for gold.

The first scenario is that the current surge in gold and oil prices represent an area of peaking action, where after some time of forming a top (with gold possibly between $800-$850), they will correct for some time and the excitement in these investments will abate. I feel that this scenario is less likely to unfold.

In the second scenario for gold, the metal will find short-term temporary resistance at the old 1980’s highs and will correct temporarily, perhaps for many months or, while testing that upward resistance level perhaps several times, before breaking through the old top and surging to uncharted territory on the upside, embarking on a new and powerful leg in the gold bull market.

The third scenario rests on examining the history of the gold price bull market during the entire decade of the seventies, which started after the dollar was no longer redeemable into gold after the monetary crisis of 1971. The gold price rose powerfully into the mid-seventies, only to peak out and go lower, before taking off again into the second inflationary wave of that decade and multiplying many times in price to $850. This scenario, if it happened today, would mean that the gold price, would reach a temporary peak in the coming year or so, then decline into a lull that could last over a year, before beginning another powerful ascent that would dwarf anything we have seen to date.

I feel the odds favor the 2nd or 3rd scenario, so I am personally holding onto my gold coin and bullion positions. I feel, as I said in my February 26th, 2007 article, cited above, that “the jury has rendered a verdict of ‘bull market’.”
