I believe we are very close – finally – to the big swoon in stock indexes most of us have been waiting for (some more patiently than others!) And I will lay out my updated case here, which I believe is stronger than ever. Last

Regular readers know that I make a special focus on forecasting major trend changes in my swing trading approach. Not only does that give me the opportunity to take maximum profits from the old trend, but also gives me the ability to jump on the
Yesterday’s volatile stock market action was telling. For the first time in weeks, the Dow suffered a significant fall – but then recovered. The VIX Volatility Index was likewise volatile (sharp up and then sharp down) The news items that emerged were that a former

When stocks make major highs, they do not all do it lockstep. And I believe a major high is upon us. But isn’t it curious that sentiment between the professional money managers and the public appears to be poles apart? Not when you accept that
You know how I just love the finance writers in the MSM. They see a noteworthy market move and scramble around for plausible ‘reasons’ for it. But Tuesday’s sharp collapse in FTSE – which was predicted by yours truly – drew this headline the same
I have received a gratifying number of discerning traders taking up the Free Trial Offer to my VIP TRADERS CLUB that officially closed on Friday. The good news is that I am extending the deadline to next Friday 27 January to allow late-comers the chance to
