Dear Trading Diary: The rocket put under Chinese shares on Monday by the PBOC’s massive easing operations (with more to come?) was not a bolt from the blue, as some pundits have it. No, in the previous week I had lined up my VIP Traders

Dear Trading Diary: Question: If the Fed found it necessary to make their first rate cut in years by a mammoth 50 bps on Wednesday, and the market is expecting further large cuts every month, is this signalling a strong economy or a weak one?
Dear Trading diary: That question must be at the forefront of the minds of investors and analysts. Just like the highly polarised politics today, investors are two camps with diametrically opposed outcomes. It is a binary choice, according to the MSM. At Wednesday’s FOMC we
Dear Trading Diary: On Tuesday 3 September I called the top of the Dow at 41,600 (the Nasdaq had already topped in June) for my subscribers. But that was no random date plucked out of thin air! It is a curious fact that on the

Dear trading diary: That was a landmark week, make no mistake. A sentiment switch was flipped on Wednesday 31 July and now Bad News is Bad – really Bad. Latest jobs data was the latest to point to a severely weakening US economy that is
Dear Trading Diary: Following the previous week’s stellar trading results, my account took a typical breather last week – until mid-week, that is. That is when I was presented with a quick 500 pt profit in USD/JPY that was in a strong correction. But have
Dear Trading Diary: A blockbuster week for all of my accounts! My £5,000 Phoenix account has sailed past the milestone £20k mark on the back of my long Dow and long Gold trades (both taken out on trailing stops). And now with signs the AI
Dear Trading Diary: Another very decent week with my Tesla position zooming up by one third in just a week from $185 to $245. And my long currency positions continue base-building with higher prices looming. And my PM positions continue trading very favourably. But NatGas
