Will Facebook Stock Be a Good Investment

Options Trading — Mon, 21 May 2012 12:40:49 +0000

Investors today will be asking themselves, “Will Facebook Stock Be a Good Investment?” If performance metrics and market IPO history carry any weight in the matter the answer in the short term appears rather obvious. Here’s what we think will happen with Facebook’s now public stock. Facebook Stock: IPOs History Not on Their Side There once was a time years ago when an average investor might have found a little known company with a cool technology that nobody understands. Facebook is not that company. Nor has any other company in recent memory made a big splash with its IPO. There is far too much money in it for the venture capitalists and investment banks to over hype and over-publicize to infinite extent to make sure every last person on the planet who would want to buy shares of Facebook be aware of the IPO last Friday. The purpose of this publicity blitz was to draw as many moths (retail investors) into the flame as humanly possible so they could be zapped and their electronic funds forever lost in the big blue lightning bolt that was the Facebook IPO.

Day Trading Systems

Options Trading — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 15:11:32 +0000

Although some early day trading systems have lost their sheen since the beginning of the millenium other platforms and methods have sprung up in their place. New platforms designed with the ultimate short term trader in mind exist today based on the industry desire to satisfy clients with a desire for high liquidity and volume. Here we look at how three day trading systems work for today’s high turnover investors. Forex Trading Systems Among the biggest movers in the financial industry after the first explosion of day trading systems, forex trading continues to be popular. The expansion of retail trading platforms has made currency trading available to effectively anyone who wishes to give it a try, and many people have. The strengths of working the forex market include the high leverage available and wide variety of automated trading programs to use – including self designed expert advisor / automated trading systems. The downside is the high volatility and danger of margin calls made against highly leveraged positions. Further – leaders in “high interest rate income” currencies such Brazil’s real (amongst others) have grown wise to the impact of international forex investment in their currencies and the damage it can do [...]

US Binary Options Brokers Trading Volumes Lower

Options Trading — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 16:53:01 +0000

Many American traders using US binary options brokers are finding it more and more difficult to trade their preferred assets due to restrictions resulting from the Dodd-Frank legislation. Trading volumes have declined precipitously on US regulated exchanges to virtually nil, while many non US binary options brokers have had no choice but to severely restrict asset choices for their US clients. Popularity of US Binary Options Brokers Dwindling The writing was on the wall when the Dodd-Frank legislation’s regulations had begun implimentation in July 2011, yet trading volumes on US binary options brokers dropped significantly in Q1 and by mid-March trading simply evaporated. One might point to potential causes of this trading volume decline as a result of declining popularity of the digital contract but in truth nothing could be further from the truth: binary options brokers overseas report significant popularity of their trading platforms. Further – new companies seem to be springing up every day. The only logical conclusion is that US binary options brokers are seeing volume declines because there are better opportunities elsewhere.

Binary Trading Puts

Options Trading — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 15:22:02 +0000

Are binary trading puts the right answer in today’s market? Given the recent runup in the major indexes it certainly begs the question as to whether the timing is right to add some binary trading puts to the portfolio. Market tops are always tough to call and hardly ever strongly defined by singular events like crashes. On the other hand there are many days near tops where the market retraces slightly or tests levels of resistance. When chartists manage to define some ranges and resistance levels there can be opportunities to make money with some binary puts. Have You Subscribed to Free Our E-Newsletter Yet?

Trading with Confidence

Options Trading — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 13:14:54 +0000

In uncertain times trading with confidence is difficult. It’s much easier to trade in a more normal market environment where expectations of growth are met with solid performance and steady political leadership. Clearly these are not those times, and yet somehow we still have to earn a living trading online. Fear not, however, for while the present market conditions are more difficult than in years past, trading with confidence is still possible when armed with knowledge. Trading with Confidence in Knowledge of the Present Economic and Political Environment I would hope my readers have been paying close attention to the news and events going on in the world today. Yesterday’s news came with the announcement that poverty levels in America are the highest they’ve ever been since they started tracking them. Given the high and sustained unemployment levels and under-employment levels and staggering consumer debt, is this a shocker to ANYONE? Obviously not. How Economic Fundamentals Help Investors Trade with Confidence When Leadership Fails The title of the paragraph should tell you what’s coming right? Economic fundamentals provide understanding on a global scale (and given the high correlation of assets today, global/macro effects far outweigh micro/individual effects) of today’s economy [...]

FED POMO Schedule April-May 2011

Options Trading — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 20:03:45 +0000

Sponsored LinkWell the FED POMO Schedule 2011 circa April-May edition is out, did you miss us? Let’s cut to the chase shall we and give you the scoop on the whens and whys. We expect increasing dollar weakness manifested in three monetization “surges” done over the next few weeks beginning tomorrow and ending May 11th. I mention three surges in particular in the prior sentence due to the purchase structure notable in the chart below. The FED POMO Schedule surges in the April May schedule look like they’ll occur April 14th-19th, April 29th-May 4th, and then again May 9th-12th as the FED has concentrated it’s helicopter dumps settling on those time periods. Each day later in the schedule increases the likelihood of dollar weakness peaking late in each surge and then waning as the markets anticipate breathers on the non-POMO days. I’m expecting market downturns on those “non-POMO” settlement and “POMO-lite” settlement days. Nobody wants to be in this market. It’s a joke. Trade at your own risk, and stay ultra short term – binary options for those of you on the low capital side. With that said, here’s the Fed’s tentative purchase table.

Sponsored LinkBinary Options Forex Trading Alert: It’s been a while since we’ve seen this clear a chart on the forex trading side but it appears we’re looking at a strong open (risk on) in US markets. Yes we’ve had our QE2 run-up but for the first time in I don’t know how long we’re actually looking at a market based trading signal (as best I can tell) rather than a signal based on intervention. Maybe… just MAYBE the Central Banks will let the risk takers do their jobs today. Now if we can just avoid any more Middle East wars or natural disasters maybe we’ll start making money on a consistent basis binary options trading again. We’ll follow markets throughout the day and see where we end up. It’s looking big and green pre-open, I can tell you that.

Binary Options Signals | Fed POMO 2011

Options Trading — Tue, 01 Feb 2011 15:46:37 +0000

The binary options signals relative to the FED POMO 2011 schedule will be strongest later this week and early next week. Given our Federal Reserve system and treasury continue to work in tandem to monetize the debt held by primary dealers and others I seen no reason not to believe we’ll continue to see more of the same throughout Q1 2011. FED POMO Schedule This Week Although I know we have posted this elsewhere before, just a reminder that the FED will be buying a mammoth of treasuries and injecting currency into the market this week. The highest purchase commitment days are February 3, 4, 7, and 9 with settlements the next business day: 4,7,8, and 10. It is our proposition that the highest influence of the currency injections will begin on the 4th and end on the 10th or 11th. We don’t have a POMO schedule for purchases beyond the 9th and we’ll be sure to post the schedule as soon as we have it.

Currency Options Trading Strategies

Options Trading — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 19:05:32 +0000

Currency options trading strategies typically involve open ended risk which endangers large amounts of invested capital. There are other ways to take more manageable bite sized chunks of risk however. Here’s a couple of forex trading strategies you might explore to try to make money. Forex Binary Options Trading You may or may not be familiar with binary options. In short, these small investments (ranging from as little as $30 to $3000) yield 60% give or take a few percent on an hourly or daily basis. Trading with a forex binary options broker allows the investor to start with as little as $100 yet still earn 60-80% yields on these facinating short term trades. The pros of this sort of investment are the limited downside risk (only invested capital is risked), high yields, no transaction costs, and micro-sized investments. Lastly, in order to earn the maximum returns, the investor only has to be “in the money” by 1 pip. Try earning a 70% yield on straight currency options trading strategies with only a 1 pip gain. In a few words, “Ain’t Happenin’!” The cons of such an investment are the “all or nothing” nature of the trade (see our binary [...]
