Equity Oracle: 09/23/2011

This week, we take a look at the iShares Silver Trust (SLV). Go back to the trade alert that I put out on Sept. 16th and read what I wrote about the 1% rule. This is not something you should be taking lightly, especially with the way the markets have been performing lately. Our trade […]

Equity Oracle: 09/09/2011

We mash it, we cream it, we salt it, we love it…it’s corn. I can’t think of a single commodity that is so versatile, yet few people actually know how to trade it. In this Oracle, we look at the Teucrium Corn Fund (CORN). With this fund, we are right at a role reversal support […]

This week, we focus on Baidu, Inc. (BIDU). Baidu is trading within a well defined trading channel. The risk exposure for the position we hold is to the downside, but from the look of the trend, BIDU is still being controlled by the buyers. Watch this week’s video »

Equity Oracle: 09/02/2011

This week’s Equity focuses on Bank of America (BAC). Last week’s instructions were to wait for the gap to fill before getting into the long trade, but the stock rallied this week, and almost got away from us.

Options Oracle: 09/02/2011

This week’s Oracle focuses on a long call position with General Electric (GE). If you did not get into this long call position with us last week, you can still join us by buying the Jan 13 10 calls at the market. Once you have done this, you can then sell your October 16 calls to […]

Options Oracle: 08/26/2011

General Electric has taken a beating over the past six months but it looks as though we may have found signs of buying activity. With support just under the $15 price level, this area becomes our risk point. A close below $14 would require your moving out of this long call position and back into […]

Equity Oracle: 08/26/2011

September and October are historically the most dangerous months of the year for investors who hold long positions in their accounts. If you forget this lesson, it could very well cost you a fortune. Next week will be the last full week of trading before the Labor Day weekend. This means we could see higher […]

Equity Oracle: 08/20/2011

In this week’s Oracle, we discuss the SPDR S&P 500 ETF. There is more negative signal showing than positive ones, which is why we remain cautious. Next up is a brief discussion of a Dow stock and shorting the VIX.
