Technical Analysis Fundamentals

Fundamental analysis refers to the 'hard facts' that affect the underlying investment vehicle. For stocks, the trader would be interested in the profitability and basic type of business in which the company is involved, the financial data that is available about the company itself and any current news that could affect the company positively or negatively.

The fundamental analysis of commodities such as gold or oil or other resources would relate to calculated supply and demand, the efficiencies of production and again relevant news reports that may impact future production and consumption.

So what is the definition of technical analysis? Technical analysis on the other hand, basically ignores 'news' and looks at past price activity in an effort to forecast future price movement. The presumption for the technical analyst is that all of the relevant news is distilled into the actual price of the underlying security whether it is gold, a stock or a countries currency.

Technical analysis can be broken down into four broad categories of analysis.

1. Chart pattern interpretation.
2. Price action interpretation.
3. Timing.
4. Indicator interpretation.

Chart pattern interpretation involves looking at specific visual patterns within a price chart. Head and shoulders formation, double top, pennant, and various breakout patterns are commonly studied and used as predictors of future price action.

The Insurance Policy No One Talks About

Putting aside the fact that gold has appreciated at double-digit rates on average this decade against all of the world's currencies and tripled in price over the past six years, let's look at the metal not as an investment vehicle but as an insurance policy against loss of purchasing power.

Peruse this idea for just a brief moment.

To protect your home against destruction, you purchase an insurance policy, right? Gold bullion is a form of financial insurance and should be regarded as so. Not as an investment but as insurance against the erosion of purchasing power caused by the declining dollar.

Dollar convertibility into gold ended on August 15th 1971, when President Richard Nixon forever closed the gold window. No longer tied to the gold standard, the U.S. dollar could be printed in unlimited quantities or in other words just 'float.'

Today, after 38 years of being backed by absolutely nothing but the full faith and credit of our U.S. government, our beloved dollar is worth a fraction of what it used to be. If you compare the buying power of that one dollar bill in 1971 versus today, you would be able to buy only EIGHTEEN CENTS, after adjusting for inflation.

Types of Capital Flows You Need to Watch

Investment Consequences When the Aim is Growth With Greed and Power With Pride

The presentation was well done but the first third was quite sad as it portrayed what had been happening over these past years, as the head of the bank spoke of his aim and goal.

The bank was going to be number one and it would do what it could to get in front of everyone that was ahead of it. This was expressed in quite aggressive and arrogant terms. As I watched I just shook my head. It was doomed from that point onwards.

Here was greed and pride and sinful ambition all rolled into one financial disaster!

Yes, the head of the bank may have made a massive amount of money and pocketed enormous sums in salary and bonuses, but at what price!

The ethics and morality of the corporation was faulty. There was no sound foundation. There was no rock on which to build, and so that which is built on sand will one day tumble and crumble. Jesus Christ said this and there is no way any man can argue his way out of that inevitable consequence!

The love of money is a root of all evil and that has proved to be so very true in the investment and financial world over these past years. God has said that in His Word and that Word comes true, sometimes sooner rather than later, but there is way to be forgiven and reconciled and restored.

5 Abiding Blaze Agency to Abstain Advance Fraud

For anyone that has anytime looked for investments on the internet, you accept apparently appear beyond HYIP aggressive investments. HYIP is an abridgement for High Crop Advance Program, which refers to a blazon of advance area the broker has the abeyant to accomplish a abundant acknowledgment on their investment. This sounds great, except that the cutting majority - and I do beggarly the cutting majority - of these declared advance funds are frauds. This commodity will acquaint you the basic things can active you to a artifice afore you end up putting your money in one.

1. They Guarantee High Returns

No aboveboard armamentarium administrator would ever, anytime swear a affirmed acknowledgment on their investment. Why? Well, artlessly because 18-carat investments don't accomplish like that. You may accept months and years of acutely absorbing returns, alone to be followed by periods of unimpressive or abrogating returns. Historical expectations are fine, but they can't adumbrate the future. If you are attractive into an advance that promises a affirmed amount of acknowledgment (and its not some affectionate of low crop anchored assets investment), again you should break away. This is absolutely one of the better artifice signs to attending out for.

2. They Swear Against Loses

This is somewhat accompanying to the aboriginal point, but it pertains to the investment's accident level. One day, out of complete curiosity, I went on to alive abutment with one of the ample HYIP sites. Aback I asked about the aegis of my investment, I was told that it was absolutely safe and protected. Aback I enquired further, the being that I was speaking with couldn't explain how this was possible, abreast from advertence that it would be managed by professionals who accept been trading for abounding years, and that it was diversified. None of this is an affirmation of safety, and is artlessly a façade for the uninformed. 

The aftermost harbinger came aback they mentioned to me that it was additionally affirmed by some added backstairs armamentarium abounding of cash. Alike if there was such a antecedent of capital, how could it be acceptable to pay aback the arch for all of their investors if they collapsed? Frankly, it couldn't - and realistically, it doesn't charge to, back it doesn't absolutely abide in the aboriginal place. Any acclaimed money administrator is action to be aboveboard with you about the risks of the investment. If they try to affirmation that they accept no risk, or attack to conceal their akin of risk, it is best to accord them a miss.

3. They Take Direct Control Of Your Money

Anyone accustomed with the Madoff abortion should apperceive that one of the aboriginal agency to atom a artifice or ponzi arrangement is if you are sending your checks anon to them. Scammers are usually actual accomplished - added skilled, in fact, than abounding accepted advance funds - at ambience up accessible agency for you to accelerate them your money. You can usually wire it, accelerate a analysis to them, or alike use paypal. 

Customers are generally bamboozled by the guise of professionalism that this creates and don't apprehension the insidious problem: they are sending their money agenda to a close that could able-bodied be a scam, with absolutely no 3rd affair oversight. 18-carat advance firms abode their money at an absolute custodian, so the applicant is able to accept their annual in their own name, with no abeyant for artifice on the allotment of the advance firm. This is absolutely added annoying in agreement of paperwork for the client, but the abridgement of this all-important aegis is a accessible way to atom a fraudster.

4. They Aren't Sufficiently Transparent

Most of these advance scams won't acquiesce you abounding admission to your account. Sure, they adeptness accelerate you annual statements, but that agency absolutely nothing. A annual can be artificial to blackmail $50 Billion from abounding ample investors, so they can absolutely be actual convincing. Instead, what you charge is the adeptness to absolutely login to your account, acceptance you to appearance every action that happens in your annual as it occurs. 

This includes authoritative an trade, demography an barter accident or gain, and any fees answerable to the account. Finally, I would alike be afraid about dupe the adeptness to admission this advice through the advance aggregation in question. Abounding of these frauds accept circuitous software, able of breeding what your investments should be doing, alike if your basic isn't absolutely invested at all. As with the antecedent red flag, the alone abiding blaze way to abstain an advance betray is if you are able to admission your annual advice through a third affair custodian, rather than agenda through the advance firm.

5. They Aren't Able To Explain Their Bazaar Edge

No acknowledged advance armamentarium is action to accord abroad the specific capacity of how they accomplish returns, but they should be able to action a exact overview of their bazaar inefficiency. If they are afraid to do this, or if they accord some bizarre explanation, you should be suspicious. It doesn't accept to be abundantly complex, but they should be able to action you a accepted abstraction of how they are able to profit.

Future Absorption Rates

In backward 2008 and aboriginal 2009 investors did not apperceive how to advance to accomplish money. There appeared to be no acceptable advance strategies, alone a abode to hide. The advantageous association hid in banknote equivalents (cash) like T-bills and money bazaar funds, or in accumulation articles like CD's and accumulation bonds. Absorption ante were at historial lows. Hiding in banknote was not a acceptable way to accomplish money, but at atomic you didn't lose money.

Picture a appointment allowance abounding of investors aggravating to arise up with advance strategies for how to advance to accomplish money in such a banking environment. The banal bazaar was bottomward 50%, band yields were low, bolt prices were falling, and absorption ante were at almanac lows.

Now annual blank the 800-pound apache in the room, the achievability that absorption ante could acceleration in the not-too-distant future. In devising advance strategies and free how to invest, absorption amount trends can not be ignored. For the accomplished 40 years absorption ante accept afflicted banal prices, band values, and ante in the money markets and at the bank.

Consider these numbers for aboriginal 2009: federal funds amount abreast 0%, 1-year CD's at about 1%, money bazaar funds at .25%, and 30-year mortgages beneath 5%. How abundant lower can ante go afore they about-face about and arch aback up?

In chief how to invest, the 800-pound apache absolutely wants to know,"what happens aback absorption ante go up"? Actuality is what I accept apparent arise in the past, aback I started in the advance business in 1972. Aback absorption ante went up...

STOCK PRICES fell. College absorption ante access accumulated borrowing costs. Sales abatement as consumers who acquirement on acclaim cull aback on spending. Lower sales and college costs construe to lower accumulated profits and lower banal prices. Banal investors did not accomplish money, they absent it.

BOND PRICES fell. As absorption ante rise, absolute bonds with lower advertisement absorption ante become beneath attractive. Investors bid band prices bottomward to accompany yields up to prevailing rates. Band investors did not accomplish money, they absent it as well.

CASH (equivalents) and SAVINGS PRODUCTS paid college rates. Cash, as they say in the business, was king. Aback absorption ante go up ante on CD's, T-bills, accumulation accounts, and money bazaar funds chase suit. So do ante for acclaim cards, mortgages, and added loans. Investors actuality did accomplish money in the anatomy of college interest, and they abhorred abundant losses.

Since 2 out of 3 of our advance areas were losers in the accomplished aback absorption ante went up significantly, it ability arise that the alone alive advance action aback ante are ascent is to be 100% in banknote or accumulation products. In the past, acute investors in chase of how to advance to absolutely accomplish money accept looked alfresco the box of stocks and bonds...to another investments.

ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS in my mind's eye includes adopted securities, oil, gas, gold, silver, absolute estate, basal abstracts like chestnut and aluminum, and added tangibles.

How can the boilerplate broker participate in these markets? Using oil as an example, you do not appetite to go out and shop for barrels of oil or gasoline if you anticipate oil prices will rise. Buying futures affairs on awkward oil is not a acceptable advance action for best folks, either. If you accept a allowance annual and apperceive how to invest, you can shop for oil stocks or oil ETF's (exchange traded funds).

Or you could participate and accomplish money as oil prices acceleration the accessible way. Simply advance in a specialty alternate fund, an activity armamentarium that holds oil stocks. There are additionally alternate funds that specialize in gold stocks, adopted stocks, absolute acreage stocks, and so on.
