  • "Volatility Watch" and Better Trades  By : Loredana Sargu
    There are rules of thumb in every field of interest. I am referring to certain generalizations and assumptions that people make and observe. In the markets there are many but one that catches my attention lately is the correlation between the directional movement of the market and the volatility that is expressed in option pricing. The rule of thumb is; when markets go up the volatility goes down. Recently there is a glaring inconstancy to this assumption and it needs to be noted.
  • Target Practice for Better Trades  By : Loredana Sargu
    I often use analogies to teach principles and I have often said that you can’t throw a pile of lumber off a cliff and have it land in the shape of a house. Stocks, indices and commodities charts can look random and erratic but there is usually a pattern hidden in there. From the right perspective those random and erratic movements can suddenly take on powerfully precise and rhythmic symmetry.
  • "Those Darn Market Makers" in Better Trades  By : Loredana Sargu
    I just finished a training session on the internet and I answered a question that I have answered 100 times before or more. It got me a bit worked up because there is far too much mythology out there about the market and how it works and who does what to whom. I am going to attack one of the straw men of trading myths.
  • Playing Opening Gaps for Better Trades  By : Loredana Sargu
    I have written before about the many types of GAPS and I have mentioned the fact that opening gaps are very common while true gaps are very rare. I have also mentioned that there may be a legitimate strategy of just playing opening gaps. This has sparked many questions about the actual details of the strategy so I thought it worth the time to detail the actual playing of opening gaps.
  • BetterTrades and Market Mind Games  By : Loredana Sargu

  • BetterTrades and "FUNNYDAMENTALS"  By : Loredana Sargu
    The end of last month, a broker from New York calls me. He has called several times over the last year to tell me I need to open an account with him because he has such a great buying opportunity. He was armed with a strong list of fundamentals that just had to convince me to give him money to buy this stock. Well I enjoy talking to him because he proves my points about staying neutral and playing the stock not the fundamentals or the news.
  • Big MAC Divergence in BetterTrades  By : Loredana Sargu
    Indicators are a powerful tools and they generally have a very specific function. They measure specific aspects of behavior and that behavior is compared to the chart movement. Some indicators are very narrow in focus i.e. only relavent in trends or only in compression patterns while other indicators work well in nearly any market patterns. Some of the more common and respected indicators measure over bought / oversold conditions or trend strength or divergence. I will focus this article on the divergence indicators and how to recognize divergence.

  • Better Trades and 3 Lessons You Learn  By : Loredana Sargu
    LESSON 1. AVOID THE COMMON THIEF

    I have noticed that some people display a common error in judgment that can be devastating. It's kind of like letting a thief into your home and saying, "please turn out the lights when you leave." The next morning you wake up and the house is empty, the safe is open, and all your deeds are missing. A few days later you get a call from your pension plan coordinator who bears heart-wrenching news "there is nothing left in you account, do you still plan on using our services?"
  • A Powerful-Profitable-Cash-Cow: BetterTrades  By : Loredana Sargu
    Dear Traders and Friends:

    Lately I have had many students ask me about the QQQQ's - so much that it merits a rewrite. The QQQQ is an incredible choice for making money in today's market. Taking the time to learn this EXCHANGE TRADED FUND (ETF) could put fun, fast cash into your pockets. Don't let the fact that it is called an ETF scare you away. It is very simple to play. I missed making hundreds of thousands of dollars on this Powerful-Profitable-Cash-Cow because I feared it was complicated. Just remember what FEAR really means FALSE EXPECTATIONS APPEARING REAL!

  • Climbing To The Better Trades Top  By : Loredana Sargu
    I have the unique opportunity to teach Traders with a wide range of knowledge. Some individuals are just beginning, while others have been around the market for 20+ years. There are some "laws of life" that seem unchangeable. For example, I know that some people will earn more than me in this market and, unfortunately, others will never have success in their trading efforts. It's sad to think that some people will not see their aspirations for financial success materialize. It is comforting to know what makes the difference between the winners and the non-winners (I choose not to use the "L" word).
  • No Load Mutual Funds: Investment Hype vs. Investment Help  By : Ulli G.niemann

  • Buy and Hold: How to Perpetuate Your Investment Losses  By : Ulli G.niemann
    Judging from the reader’s e-mail it appears that he works for a major bank and is adamant about Buy & Hold and Dollar Cost Averaging. Maybe it's the approach he has chosen and he doesn't like hearing that the emperor is wearing no clothes. Nothing personal, honestly, but I find it incomprehensible that anyone, after the bear market and the financial disasters most people experienced, can even consider such theories. The results are just too black & white.

  • How to find an Investment Advisor  By : Ulli G.niemann
    Most investors—even some professionals—tend to be "off" in their timing: they buy things when they are hot, not when they are cold. But for the greatest benefit, it should be the opposite.

  • The Ins and Outs Of How Options Trading Works  By : Luke Anderson
    Options are purchasing the "option" to buy or sell a security if it reaches a goal price at a certain time. For example, say I want to buy (and this would never happen, it's just easier to think about when you aren't talking securities and are talking objects we buy daily) tomatoes. I want 40 tomatoes, but not at $1.50 each. I want them in 30 days, so if in 30 days, those tomatoes go below $1.20 each, I will buy 40 tomatoes.
