G’day Traders, The markets rebounded producing a positive night overall after we saw it fall in the previous session. This has been a common occurrence over the last week of trading, producing some very mixed signals and movements, leading up to Thanksgiving. My Weekly article will look at Thanksgiving in more depth. The US S&P500 [...]

G’day Traders, Wow what a week, I live being pro-active, I hope you do to. Today I am only writing a Daily Update, so I wont be sending out a Weekly Update as well. Right now the markets are on alert, Ireland and their bailout package is being considered between the International Monterey Fund and [...]

G’day Traders, Back to a shorter, sweeter, format today. I tweeted a few interesting notes and one interesting article this morning. All tweets were news on the bond market, with the article directly relevant. The article makes a great articulation for the current state of the markets and shows the divide between what the UK [...]

G’day Traders, Well I always said that September brings big moves, but I didn’t really expect it to happen on the 1st of the month. Last night we got some significant moves, but before we get the really big moves, let’s review the last few days as they can provide an invaluable lesson for many [...]

G’day Traders, Today will be a little different. I am going to be a little tough on you because I want you to make money. Then I am going to show you the amazing possibilities of a falling market. You are not going to make money by switching products that look like they are doing [...]

G’day Traders, It’s not the most magical morning on the Gold Coast today. It seems cold and windy outside – the perfect day to sit by the fire. But the markets produced what is expected after a US holiday – they came back refreshed and with their collective minds wiped of all the negative news. [...]

G’day Traders, The weekend can’t come fast enough for me. I am looking forward to doing nothing for a couple of days. Hopefully I can get a surf in – it’s been a while. For Forex traders the min for the NZD is now 40,000 – that’s the smallest size you can trade – we [...]

G’day Traders, Last night I got home from playing soccer and watched a bit of TV. There was some surfing on, but then I watched a bit of business news and checked out what was happening in the markets. Then I saw the pre-open for Corn – it was way up and I was short. [...]

G’day Traders, Well I had a fantastic last few days. I drove down to Croatia with a few friends for a few days at the sea. Now I think I have an idea why maybe the Southern European countries are in a bit of trouble economically – I arrived and completely relaxed. We rented an [...]
