Making The Right Investments For Your Retirement

By Darek Smith

When I was 23 I met one of the vice presidents of the largest bank in Canada. I worked as a reporter and we met for an interview. After introductions he asked me how old I was. Then he suggested that I should be saving up for my retirement. At the time I was perplexed but after a few years I realized how wise of a suggestion that was.

Saving even if it is a bit at a time is the best way to make sure that down the line you will have enough to retire on. Even $10 per month can make a difference in 20 years so the amount doesn't have to be a big one. Setting money aside is one thing however, having that money grow is another thing.

There are many options for someone who is considering investing for their retirement these days. Simply placing your funds in a bank account is not enough and figuring out whether an investment is good or not can take a lot of work.

Finding someone who knows his way around investments to help you with your planning is always a great idea. Professionals like investment advisers or financial planners have the know-how and experience to help you make the right choices for investing for your future.

What you invest in should be something secure. Your savings will be essential for your survival in the future. You have worked hard to save the money and you must make the right decisions when investing it. The recent financial crisis has made the potential risks even more apparent.

For best results start saving and investing as early as possible. The more you save and invest the better chances you have of living a comfortable life in the future. The best way to do so is to consult a financial planner or an investment adviser to help you with making the right choices in planning for your retirement. - 23309

Options Trading Tips

By Tom Lidge

I've been a stock trader for the last ten years and I absolutely love the thrills of making a great trade. I find it quite addicting. Unfortunately, losing money on a trade can be just as disheartening, if not more.

I'm going to share a few things I've learned along the way in an effort to help you to as much success as you can possibly find. The world of options is an extremely tempting one, but a dangerous one at that. Some traders end up losing their whole investment on one bad trade.

You may or may not be aware of the fact that options lose value over time. This is known as time decay, and it basically means that the longer it is until an options contract expires, the higher of a price it will sell at relative to nearer contracts at the same strike price.

Once the expiration date of the options contract approaches, this price gap will begin to close, as the prices of options decay. Those people who bought these contracts months before and still hold them will see their investments shrink relative to the movement of the stock. Therefore, you don't want to buy options and hold onto them for too long.

Many smart traders also like to hedge their risk by doing things like straddles, or buying puts on their calls and the opposite as well.

Try buying a few contracts in the opposite direction. That way if you lose out big time, those contracts will win big.

Had they hedged by giving up just a few dollars, they would have kept 90% of what they lost.

The last thing you want to do is lose your entire investment with options. Sometimes, unfortunately, this happens if your option never surpasses the strike price. - 23309

Developing Strategies in Forex Trade

By Bart Icles

Years ago, forex trade was only available to central banks, governments, commercial banks, investment banks, and other similar institutions like hedge funds. These days, the foreign exchange marketplace is now available to practically anyone who wants to participate in trading currencies. Even stay-at-home investors can now participate in foreign exchange trading. With the forex marketplace now open to both small and large investors, it is also presently offering a variety of venues for an investor to trade into. A forex trader can participate in the exchange of options for futures, currency futures, largely unregulated over the counter or OTC transactions, and many others.

With the rise in the popularity of foreign exchange trading, being able to participate in forex trade and ending up successful has become quite a challenge. As a forex trader, you must be able to determine which venue you would want to participate in and which instruments you would want to trade. Once you have done so, you will need to develop a well thought out trading strategy before you can even think about putting any of your trading capital at risk. You should also consider your exit strategies, as well as your other risk management tactics. You will be in great need for these once the trade has gone against you.

There are lots of strategies that you can potentially use and one way to organize them is through grouping them into directional and non-directional approaches. Directional strategies are those that take long and short positions in the market, while non-directional strategies are market-neutral strategies that you can use.

Most investors who participate in forex trade are familiar with directional or net long/net short approaches. Net long strategies are generally profitable in rising markets. On the other hand, net short strategies allow investors to realize profits in falling markets. There are lots of ways by which trading can be done using directional strategies, and they can be further summarized into trend-following strategies, moving average crossover systems, breakout systems, and pattern-recognition strategies.

There is not one strategy that will work for every investor. Forex trade is unpredictable in nature so it helps to learn how you can quickly adapt to changes. In this manner, you can minimize the risks that threaten your investments, and you will be able to increase your chances of ending up successful in trading currency pairs. At the end of the day, what is important is that you are able to learn how to understand the different signals going around the market so you can better develop the trading strategies you will use. - 23309

MLPs (Part II)

By Ahmad Hassam

The reason MLPs exist is to distribute all available cash back to the MLP unit holders. As said, this has to be done on a quarterly basis. The following factors are considered before determining the amount of cash distributed to each individual investor:

1) The difference between the total cash flow and the cash flow ploughed back into the MLP for futures growth. 2) How many units you hold as an MLP investor. 3) The incentive distribution rights created for the GP. These are just a few factors. There might be more as well. You need to understand the reasons behind the factors that determine the distribution of cash among the individual investors.

So once you decide to invest in commodities, you have many investment options like mutual funds, stocks, ETFs as well as MLPs. You must do your due diligence while making your investment decisions. There are always pros and cons of each investment vehicle!

Investing in MLPs is quite simple. Since an MLP is a publicly traded entity. You can simply invest in an MLP by calling your broker and telling him or her how many units of a particular MLP you are interested in buying. So investing in an MLP is just like investing in stocks.

Something like 50 MLPs is being publicly traded in the United States. Out of these 50, 40 are energy MLPs meaning that they are involved in the storage terminals, pipelines, transportation, refining and distribution. Majority of MLPs trade on NYSE with a few trading on NASDAQ and AMEX!

Most of these MLPs engage in infrastructure investment that can pay a steady stream of revenue overtime. Moreover, investing in pipelines and other energy infrastructure offers steady cash flow streams for an MLP. You only need to remember this 90% of the income that comes to an MLP should come from the production and distribution of commodities for these MLPs to have the tax exempt status.

So when you invest in an MLP, you should look for answers to the following questions: 1) What's the historical payout of the MLP? 2) How much is the cash flow? And so on. If your brokerage firm has published some research on the MLPs, you can reference that.

Don't forget there is always some risk involved in any investment. Now investing in MLPs do come with some risks like most of the infrastructure is like pipelines and drilling rigs that are vulnerable to natural disasters and earth quakes like the Hurricane Katrina, so any such event can have a negative impact on your investment.

Since the MLP is fairly small at this moment, there can be liquidity issues in withdrawing your investment from an MLP. These are some of the risk that you can face while investing in an MLP. There is another risk related with the management. You don't have much say in the management of the MLP. Running an MLP is basically a GP show. If you are not satisfied with the performance of the management or its policies only thing that you can do is to withdraw your investment from that MLP. - 23309

Participating in the UK Lottery

By Susan Renolds

See who benefits from UK's National Lottery. It allows citizens to join in raising money for local causes while buying a chance to win money for themselves. But their man focus is on winning, not contributing to the community.

28 per cent off all the money that goes into the lottery is given away to charities, totaling over 22 billion pounds so far. Most people in the United Kingdom live close to a lottery-funded amenity. Those who are chosen to receive lottery money must serve a charitable or socially beneficial function. The biggest contributor among UK lotteries is the Big Lottery Fund. It distributes most of the money raised by the lottery. There are many beneficial projects funded by the Big Lottery Fund in the fields of education, health, the environment and many others.

In addition, Good Causes have three specific categories: arts, sports and heritage. Each of these categories receives 16.67% of the Good Causes funds.

Group of four National arts councils and two film councils are Granted ,for funds awarded related to the arts and cinema.For example, a grant to the Yorkshire Film Archive will improve the accessibility of this highly popular collection of historical amateur and professional video via an online database,3m was granted to myfilms.com,high-quality website that will help individuals ,non-mainstream films from the past and present.

The lottery distribution entities, five in number, and the Big Lottery Fund disburse the funds to the sport category. Expenses for purchase of land, building and equipment and construction are met from the grant funds. Local community needs are fulfilled by these projects and it is also intention that the source of funding cannot be only from the lottery. The Inclusive Fitness Initiative is a project devised with this intention and is responsible for making facilities and services available to the many disables persons.

The Lottery Fund has granted more than 39 billion to many of the heritage projects since'94 and this is due to keeping hold of heritage of the UK with museums, other buildings, certain language or tradition. The AN in Wales has 365,000 to bring important manuscripts.

Go to the Department of Culture, Media, and Sport fo a total list of projects that are funded by the lottery.

Opponents have few reasons with the truth that lottery generated money go to charity. Many claim that coloring is a contribution apposed to gambling and encouraging more to gamble. While it is true that positive causes create a powerful marketing message, these types of monies do help fund these charitable causes. - 23309

Berlin Investment Property

By Sofie Vincent

Investment property in Berlin is becoming popular, as a growing number of investors and prospective buyers are learning about the tremendous financial returns on Berlin investment property from this fast-rising venture.

In Germany there has been an economic increase rate of 2.5 percent that was posted in the year 2006; this has caused Germany to be at its highest level to at its highest level of confidence in about 15 years. The country of Germany is having a great time of economic revival due to its strong export market and rising housing price index, which makes it and very attractive time to invest there.

Berlin has had a steady and increasing rise of investors after many years of the economy being very slow. It has been especially sluggish in the eastern parts of Germany and of course Berlin. Due to this fact, prices of property have nominally low. Many German citizens are choosing to buy their homes instead of renting them now a days, the outlook on mortgage's is very encouraging because the governments has relaxed on its policies concerning mortgage's.

The growth rate of the economy continues to be at 2.5 percent throughout 2007 and house purchase prices are seen to increase slightly. With low costs and affordable office and commercial spaces, many British and European investors have continuously poured into Berlin to set up their headquarters and home offices. With the fall of the Berlin wall, the city had to race with other advanced cities in Germany like Frankfurt and Munich in terms of economic development. But an unconventional occurrence is taking place in Berlin, in that property prices are lower in the capital than in the other minor cities of the country, making Berlin investment property very attractive.

At any rate, the areas identified as the choice properties are in the Mitte and Charlottenburg districts, where properties of high value and yields can be purchased as one of the best deals across the continent. In a few years time it is projected that property rates in these areas will dramatically increase as the demand increases several fold.

Very serious interests have been going into the Berlin investment property arena because of the huge returns it will deliver its investors. The development of Schlosspark-Carre for instance is held up by a ten-year rental agreement by a group of consorting bank, which makes it a great investment opportunity to behold over the entire continent. Another addition to that is complimented by a ten-year maintenance and modernizing plans, with free rental management properties offered up for sale.

When speaking of the population, it is the epicentre of a structured economy, Berlin has a steady population of 3.4 million people which is about the same number of Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Munich cities combined making in the most populated area.

In 2003 there were a little bit more than 1.8 million households in Berlin with each household made up of around 1.8 persons. Over the recent years, this statistic has grown steadily, and by the year 2025, the number of households in Berlin is expected to breach the 2 million household mark. Over an'-year period, this translates to an annual household increase of 8,400. This population expansion would trigger an exodus of big and small investors going into investment property in Berlin, and with the local residents having difficulty getting mortgages for their houses, many would resort to renting or leasing their homes.

The goal of many of these foreign investors will be to buy attractive properties in Berlin and the sell them to the locals for a large profit, because Berlin has all the key ingredients to have a high property market.

The Advantages of buying Berlin investment properties

In contrast to other investment markets and centres around the world Berlins is a very liquid rental base market. Around 87% of Berlin's population which comes to about three million some people have decided to rent out their homes instead of buying them for ownership. Near the end of the year in 2008 vacancy rates of Berlin's rental properties including homes and apartments were extremely low at 3.4 percent. Many profitable options appeared to investors in purchasing "buy-to-let" apartments and other properties giving them a consistent and very profitable income based on renting.

Another advantage in the Berlin investment property arena is the clarity of information which the German authorities give to potential investors. Data such as property prices, rental rates, return on investment and sales, are given accurately and in a straightforward manner to the investors so they are afforded informed decisions and choices in their investments. - 23309

Grants for Minority Women to Start a Business

By John Holden

In order to start a business, women will usually go get a loan from the bank or perhaps ask friends and family for a loan. Not many realize that they can get free money in the form of grants.

Business grants for minority women are better than getting loans and borrowing money in many ways. One is that they do not require repayment of the money and also your credit will not be checked since you are not required to repay it.

Many organizations give out minority business grants for women including the federal government. The organizations may include Non-profits and businesses.

If you want to be taken seriously for minority business grants for women, then you must have a business plan. The grantors want to see that the money they give you will be put to good use. A business plan can also help you to organize your business and set goals.

If you do not know how to write a business plan, there are many sample business plans you can look at online. You may also want to hire a consultant who can help you write up a plan.Go to the government website to find grants. The website lists many grants so you will need to sift through them and find the ones that pertain to your cause.

Next, do some networking and make contact with the non-profits and local businesses and find out if they give minority business grants for women. You can at least get some good business advice from the established businesses.

Contact your local or state government. These governments usually have their own grants separate from federal grants.Since there are many minority business grants for women out there, it is in your best interest to apply for as many as possible. You may not get all the grants but you will certainly get some by the sheer volume that you apply to. - 23309

Twitter Can Help You In Your Real Estate Business

By Jerome Pennix

At every real estate convention, boot camps, or seminars the issue of marketing comes up at least once if not a hundred times. Someone will mention Facebook (which is a whole different story) and this is always closely followed by a comment about Twitter. So... let's decide is Twitter worth it? If it IS worth it, how can investors best use it for profitable results? First, lets look at just what Twitter is and what it can do for your advertising efforts.

Twitter.com is a site where an investor can create a profile and become a "micro-blogger" Twitter is like a typical blog (aka web-log) in that it lets you say anything you want to say to anyone and everyone who will view it - with one exception. Twitter only allows a subscriber to express themselves--0 characters at a time. So it's a kind of like using you cell phone to send the world a brief text message. When you locate a profile of someone whose "tweets" you are interested in, you can "follow" them - whenever they post anything new, it will be visible on your Twitter home page. If anyone finds YOUR profile and follows YOU, then you will be alerted that someone is "following" you. Now that you are aware of the basics, let's discuss making this a powerful and PROFITABLE tool for you.

Because the old adage "Out of sight, out of mind" is usually true, you'll need to stay active with your "tweeting" you should be posting at least once a day. Find something to say specific to real estate - something that other people will find useful. If you just start blasting info about properties you have for sale, it probably won't get you as far as you hope. After all - when was the last time you opened and read an email from someone trying to sell you something?

If you give your followers something they can use or something they find interesting (even if it ISN'T about real estate) then you'll have a chance to keep their attention. When you gain their trust, they'll be more open to consider what you have to say when you want to offer them something you've listed.

Twitter, like other social networking sites, is a good way to connect with others - just keep in the forefront of your mind that they're people and want to be acknowledge like people. They aren't money makers. So connect when a person follows you, send them a short personal message letting them know you appreciate it.

Remember that being real with others and giving thoughtful content is what Twitter is made for - the profit will follow if you treat people like people and post routinely so that your Twitter marketing is constantly on the radar! The more you "Tweet", the larger your following will become - and the larger your following, the better your opportunities of communicating with a person who is interested in making a deal - which, of course, means a greater opportunity for you to profit! - 23309

Why Is "The Power Spike Mechanical Stock Trading System" So Popular Among Stock Traders?

By Kevin Butler

The stock market is a great place to earn profits; it is the best at-home moneymaking opportunity ever. In fact, more than FIFTY BILLION dollars change hands every day on the New York Stock Exchange. Did you know that?

It's really true. And there's incredible opportunities to earn exceptional profits out of this huge river of money.

Professionals and amateurs alike use trade systems to identify high profit potential situations and earn money. And the Power Spike Mechanical Stock Trading System has taken the country by storm, becoming a national phenomenon and a favorite for thousands of traders.

Why do so many stock traders have such devotion to this trade system?

** ADVANTAGES OF A STRONG TECHNICAL PATTERN TRADE SYSTEM

Strong technical patterns are the foundation for consistent, reliable and profitable mechanical stock trading systems. These patterns can be located and identified on a stock chart. They consistently predict what the price is going to do next.

The Power Spike Mechanical Stock Trading System is the product of a sound technical pattern called a "Power Spike". A power spike happens when the volume of one day is a lot higher than the average volume of recent days.

On one particular day the volume spikes up and stands out from the recent volume.

A moment of extreme emotional trading is what creates a power spike; people are getting into and out of a stock very quickly. This is a time of impulsive trading.

As a response to the high level of emotional trading, a strong move in price often follows. Big spikes signal big moves. The power spike is a strong sign that a substantial price move is imminent.

** SUPERIOR STOCK TRADING RETURNS

Huge profits is just one of the unique and outstanding features of the Power Spike Mechanical Stock Trading System. The big move that follows a power spike is often strong and covers a large distance.

Price distance equals profits. And a power spike trade can often produce double-digit profits within just a few short days.

The emotional trading occurring on the spike day builds internal momentum that is released in the price move. As a result, the price will cover a large distance and move very quickly.

The Power Spike Mechanical Stock Trading System has become a popular and trusted tool for many traders because it lets you get in and earn huge returns fast. You earn big profits very quickly.

And isn't that exactly what we want?

** FINDING POWER SPIKES

How can you find and identify this highly profitable technical pattern?

There are many ways to identify a power spike, but one technique works exceptionally well. Bollinger Bands are the key to using this technique.

Bollinger Bands are placed onto the volume data. A power spike happens when the volume penetrates the upper band.

The intensity and strength of the power spike is determined by how much of the total volume appears above the upper band. Stronger spikes increase the odds of a successful trade.

As a general rule, I only consider trading spikes where a minimum of 15% of the total volume appears above the upper band. Less than 15% penetration usually signals a weak spike.

This method of power spike identification provides an additional benefit. It allows you to rank and compare spikes in multiple stocks. A 42% penetration spike in stock "A" is preferred to a 29% penetration spike in stock "B".

This method of ranking power spikes is a great way to make initial trade selections.

*** WARNING: A POWER SPIKE IS NOT A TRADE SIGNAL

By itself, a power spike is not a signal to get into a stock trade. The trade signal won't develop until sometime after the power spike occurs, usually within a few days.

Before investing money you need to know which direction the expected move is likely to go and when you should pull the trigger and get into the trade. The way the price reacts after the power spike happens is what will answer these questions.

A terrific way to trade this incredibly profitable pattern is by using the Power Spike Mechanical Stock Trading System. It is a resource you should consider very seriously. Few technical patterns can match the reliability and profitability the power spike offers.

Are you ready to earn huge profits very quickly? - 23309

My Strategic Forecasting: A Model For the Investing Starter

By Carlene Lavalle

Since I just retired from being a head nurse in one of the small community hospitals in Virginia, I do have money to spare. However, I was so doubtful in attempting to invest for the fear of swindling and defrauding practices. Thus, when my son told me about investing in the stock market, I was really skeptical even if I were given any investment research newsletter. It is as if there is no one and nothing that can win me over to invest on something I definitely do not understand.

My birthday came and my son visited me and eventually, we talked over about my retirement fund. He said that my money is not that big enough to support both myself and my medications as I step on my senescence age. Then he put forward and discussed again regarding investing in the stock market. In order to convince me, he showed me a website about strategic investing this time. He boasted that because he received investment research from My Strategic Investing, he was able to gain 20% of the money he invested in just a few weeks time. He said that what I should do is to invest just a small percentage of my money and go from there.

My son is a very good and calculating person. I understand that he is just looking after me and wants me to enjoy some travelling with friends on my last years on earth. So I visited the website of My Strategic Investing and studied what they have to offer. One thing I liked about this site is that they are not offering any get-rich schemes. They aim on long-term investment schemes that will provide simple but feasible gains. This means, even if I do not understand that much about investing, I can rely on their solid and scientific investment research to help me make intelligent decisions on where and what I should put my money in.

Investment research from Strategic Investing provides data that is not only concentrated on ecomic trends as compared to others. They present technical analysis, historical research, geo-political studies, and even political conditions. I admire this kind of forecasting method because it looks at the big picture. Knowing that everything is interrelated is one thing I have learned from my nursing career. If a patient is experiencing headache, it does not always mean that the root of the problem is in his head. Digestive system problems can also cause headaches. Thus, I really appreciate that no stone is left unturned when it comes to the financial forecast from My Strategic Investing.

I understood my son and I am now an enthusiast of My Strategic Investing. I am delighted to say that I am achieving simple gains with the help of the investment research provided by My Strategic Investing and I am into stock market investing now. - 23309

A Real Forex Apocalypse Review

By Kathy Alonso

I should have known to stay away from any product who's sales page claims 100% success. I had little knowledge about Forex Trading. There were few reviews most of which were more like advertisements but since i was unable to find any negative reviews I decided to to try forex trading with the Forex Apocalypse EA. Not having to experiment with or change the settings of the EA sounded very appealing to a Forex Novice and its track record of not having lost money in years seemed unbeatable and made it sound like a good investment. I also signed up for the recomended trading platform to use with this EA which was MetaTrader which had a length sign up process. Unfortunately this platform only runs on windows so i was unable to use my Macintosh computer and was forced to borrow a windows computer. I was able to fund my account through paypal and installed the Apocalypse Expert Advisor. Though I thought i was ready to go, I had trouble getting the EA to begin live trading. When I contacted the MetaTrader support and reinstalling their software didn't help, I was told to contact the Forex Apocalypse support.

I looked through the forex apocalypse website where i had purchased this EA and was unable to find any contact or support information. Luckily I was able to find the email which i was sent when I had first bought it and sent my support questions to this email. Their response came sooner than expected and i heard back from them within 24 hours although by this time i had already figured out what the problem was. The MetaTrader program settings were not set to give the EA permission to do live trading. I just changed the permissions and was on my way.

The settings of the EA were left on the Default which are the following: magic number : 20202111 eachtickmode : true Lots: .5 stop loss: 250 takeprofit: 500 trailing stop;: 65 slippage: 3 Nothing was changed.

The EA was working on 30 minute graphs and all major currencies. As expected, it took a few days to make the first purchase. Unexpectedly, that same day I lost over $250. I had read that for best results the EA had to run 24 hours a day and because i didn't have much confidence in that borrowed windows computer I decided to invest in ForexHoster. I set up Forex Apocalypse to run on their remote server, a service which costs over $60 a month. I also read through the Forex Apocalypse manual again which stated that the graphs should be set at 4 hours and 1 hour for best results/accuracy. The changes were made and the EA was left running again, this time 24/7 on my new ForexHoster account on 1 hour and 4 hour graphs. I was hopeful when this EA made another purchase a few days later but again sever hours, i had once again lost almost $300. Very much dismayed, I wrote to the Forex Apocalypse support, telling them of my problems and asking for any help or suggestions. Once again I received a timely response. They suggested that I use shorter time frames and that "EUR/USD is the recommended currency pair as it produces the most stable signals". Once again the changes were made according to the recommendations given. Unfortunately the continuous losses continued and three weeks from when i first purchased Forex Apocalypse, I had lost over 800 dollars. Needless to say this was a hard learned lesson. I will be attempting to get a refund and I'll also be canceling my ForexHoster account.

Please learn from my mistake. If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is. Forex trading is far from being a science and no matter what you use or how you do it, it is more of a gamble than an investment.

But there are great opportunities to be found online. You can stay up to date wit the best opportunities by visiting www.prosperlane.com. - 23309

Determining The Primary Trend

By Ahmad Hassam

A picture is worth more than a thousand words. Trading would be almost impossible without charts and technical analysis. Trading is all about anticipating and predicating rather than forecasting. Technical analysis is the best tool a trader can have.

Always remember, trend is your friend. Trading in the direction of the trend is the best trading strategy. Never try to trade against the trend. So determining the primary direction of the trend is highly importanct for you. Primary trend is the direction of the market that offers the least resistance forward making money. When you follow a primary trend in a bull market you look for strong stocks and in a bear market you look for stocks showing weaknesses. The most important thing that you should in a market is its primary trend. In order to determine the primary direction of the trend, you need to draw correct trendlines. This is an art that traders learn with experience. A wrong trendline means lost trades. You use the following tools to determine the primary trend! Knowing the primary trend and trading in its direction increases your chances of making money. So how do you find the primary trend and what tools you need to determine the primary trend?

Trendlines: Knowing how to draw and use trendlines gives you an excellent start on any trade. To correctly draw a rising trendline on the chart, start with the lowest low on the chart and connect it to the lowest low preceding the highest high in the chart without bothering about the prices between the two points. Similarly to draw the down trendline, draw a line connecting the highest high on the chart to the highest high preceding the lowest low of the chart without passing through the prices between the two prices.

Moving Averages: Moving averages are the most basic but the most widely used analytical tools in trading. Before you understand what a moving average is first try to grasp the concept of support and resistance. Support level is the price where the prices stop falling and the buyers step in overcoming the selling pressure. A break in the support level is an indication that more weakness may be ahead. Moving averages are used to smooth out the market's trend over a given period of time and serve as an important support and resistance levels.

Resistance level is the price where prices stop rising and the sellers overcome the buying pressure. A break above the resistance level is an indication that the market is going strong.

Oscillators: Oscillators are graphic depictions of points derived from the mathematical formulas that are plotted below the price charts. Knowing these mathematical formulas is not important as a trader. What is more important to know is the fact that oscillators produce useful mathematical data that can help you tell whether the market is overbought or oversold and whether the momentum of the primary trend in the market is still strong or there is a potential change in the primary trend ahead? Two important oscillators that you should be familiar with are RSI and MACD.

Bollinger Bands: Bollinger bands are calculated by plotting points one or more standard deviations above and below the 20-day moving average. However, you can calculate Bollinger Bands with any moving average. Bollinger bands are also known as volatility bands or envelopes. Bollinger bands give you visual evidence when the market has travelled too far in any one direction. After you identify the primary trend in the market, you should determine your trading timeframe. These timeframes are a sort of vague and can range from a few weeks to months. Short time frame for market timers is a few days to a few weeks. Long term time frame is something like six months. - 23309

Trading Crude Oil Futures (Part I)

By Ahmad Hassam

One thing should be clear to you. Energy markets will be a major focal point in the global financial makers and the global economy for many years to come. The key to understanding energy trading is to understand oil, natural gas, gasoline and heating oil futures. Again crude oil prices have started rising. The recent price of crude oil was quoted as $ 80 per barrel. It is being predicted that the price will soon reach the $ 100 per barrel mark. Analysts are of the opinion that this price might reach as high as $ 200 per barrel. In any case, with the end of global recession, the demand for crude oil will again rise making the oil prices go sky high as the supply cannot keep up with the rising demand.

NYMEX trades futures and options contracts for crude oil, natural gas, heating oil, gasoline, coal, electricity and propane. NYMEX is also home to trading in metals. Trading in energy futures is centralized at the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), the world's largest physical commodity futures exchange.

For smaller traders NYMEX offers e-mini contracts for oil and natural gas that also trades on the GLOBEX network of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). Trading in NYMEX is conducted in two divisions: 1) The NYMEX Division and 2) The COMEX Division. You can trade crude oil futures. If you haven't done futures trading before than before you start trading crude oil futures, you should first educate yourself on how to trade futures contracts. The good thing is that you can paper trade on your demo account with the use of virtual money. Paper trading is something that should not be missed by even professional traders. Practice makes your trading perfect!

Sometimes the rise in oil prices leads to the increase in interest rates through the bond market and the actions of central banks and the other times the opposite happens. Rise in oil prices if often inflationary. As a trader, you should know this fact that oil price rise often tends to slow down the economy and lower retail sales as well as consumer confidence with lower traffic on the highways.

Oil prices and the interest rates generally move in the same direction when viewed over long periods of time. Now you need to understand the Peak Oil Concept. Peak oil is the concept that the world oil production has peaked and the production of oil will never be as high again.

No new major discovery of an oil well has been made in the past two decades. This means that the supply of oil is dwindling while the global demand for oil is on the rise. Now you need to understand the Peak Oil Concept. Peak oil is the concept that the world oil production has peaked and the production of oil will never be as high again. Oil prices and the interest rates generally move in the same direction when viewed over long periods of time.

Many oil wells have gone dry. US was a major producer of oil in the beginning of the 20th century but over time, depleted all its oil reservoirs. The last oil well went dry in Texas in the early part of'70s. Oil production in countries like Venezuela, Iran and Nigeria has peaked and is going down. Non OPEC sources of oil like North Sea and Mexico are also showing sign of declining production. There has been no major oil well discovery for the last few decades. Some people consider the Peak Oil idea as controversial but this concept is increasingly plausible given the state of the global oil industry. The peak oil concept is very important for you to know. This means that now in the next few decades, we will be witnessing an uptrend in the oil prices as the global demand increases and the supply is unable to catch up with the global demand of oil. When oil prices reach above $100 per barrel, it becomes too expensive for the industry as well as the private consumer. With this price level, chances are that more and more investment will go into the alternative energy industry. Now you should keep these facts in the background of your mind as a trader. In any case, most of the experts now agree that in the next 10-20 years, the oil production will peak and after that it will start declining.

Now you should keep these facts in the background of your mind as a trader. In any case, most of the experts now agree that in the next 10-20 years, the oil production will peak and after that it will start declining. 1) Demand fluctuates but supply of oil is finite. 2) The world runs on oil and any threat to the supply of oil often leads to rising prices. As an oil trader your primary goal is to consider the effects of events on the supply of oil and correlate this effect with your charts. - 23309

Company Going Public? You Need To Get The Right Publicity

By James Scott

I laugh when I turn on the television to see an author on a talk show telling the audience about their book or flip on the radio in my car and hear the morning DJ interviewing a self proclaimed expert of some new weight loss program where you can lose 500 pounds in 48 hours.

I laugh not because of the content but because I know how much they had to pay a publicist to get that interview. I know that all the questions are predetermined and that the publicist who convinced this individual that TV and radio were the only way to get in front of the public is living in the'70's and can't seem to adjust to the new concepts of massive publicity for pennies and the young, hip publicists that have transformed the process of gaining publicity overnight.

The last thing I'm trying to offend any publicists out there but I'm going to tell the public a little secret. If you are seeking massive explosions of publicity for your business, book, musical act or future celebrity, there is a process that will blast your 'brand' to 10,000,000's overnight. There is a process that will put your brand in front of your target market in hours, not weeks. There is no waiting on approval from a television network or radio channel.

That secret process is a cooperative of internet video distribution, press releases, article marketing, social book marketing, blogs and a few other online media distribution combination that will take your brand campaign from 0 mph to 100mph overnight. When you are interviewing publicists or brand recognition marketing specialist keep this in mind, any publicist can get you on TV or the radio with a couple calls since both of these media genres are constantly in need of content and truth be told, the results you'll get are very minimal from these to publicity mediums.

The central questioning of your interview should be quizzing them on their online media campaigns and viral media expertise. Don't spend a dime until they've convinced you that their online strategies are on the cutting edge and cost effective. Online marketing strategies can literally have the internet screaming your name in hours. - 23309

Take Your Business Public: How To Find a Consultant That Can Make The Process Fast and Easy

By James Scott

So many companies dream of going public to raise massive amounts of capital, as set up for an exit strategy, to make acquisitions with stock and for many other reasons. While your intentions may be pure and with genuine motives, you're entering shark infested waters of boiler rooms, crooked attorneys and underbelly consultants who have made careers off of taking well intentioned executives just like you for a 24 month rollercoaster ride while they take every penny you have as your company shrivels up like week old road kill.

Just and honest consultants in the 'public offering' industry are as rare as the illusive white elephant. This industry exists in a cesspool surrounded by rose gardens; from afar it looks amazing and an image of a dreamland but get up and close and the sludge and odor are enough to make you run and hide. So what do you look for in a consultant? The best consulting firms are the 'boutique firms' with minimal overhead that keep a low profile and are made up of 3 or 4 'partner' consultants.

These firms typically have the experience of working with the large consulting groups but for one reason or another have decided to leave and go out on their own. The great thing is, these small groups typically have massive contacts and process your entire public offering in-house. Offering a complete turn-key solution that is managed in-house offers a huge advantage because there is accountability and you can actually build a relationship with the people that are making your dream of a public offering come true.

These 'boutique' consultants will usually stay onboard as growth consultants for the life of the company in exchange for modest fees and a pre-IPO or pre-OTCBB equity position. The large firms will hack you out at the knees and gouge you with fees while they take massive amounts of equity in your company which takes away your bartering chip when you need to offer more stock to the public to raise capital.

The small firms will also work one on one with you to show you how to use your stock to grow through acquisition and other nifty ways to use stock to grow. Seek out the boutique consulting firm and save the attorney for spot audits. Hold on to your cash. Why pay outrageous fees to lawyers when you can pay 60% less with a small consulting firm that will add all the bells and whistles for free and actually get your stock trading, usually in half the time? - 23309

Take Your Company Public: Take Your Start-up Public

By James Scott

Are you trying to raise capital for your business? Have you been turned down by institutional lenders for loans and corporate lines of credit? Why deal with the hassle and embarrassment of perpetual declines and risk losing your business because of lack of cash? Wouldn't it be great to raise capital quickly and easily for your company without constantly having to fill out scores of credit applications to stay afloat?

The important thing to realize is that if you are a small or medium size business and even if you are a start-up you can take your company public on OTCBB. When going public you really have two viable options: first, most people consider the IPO, but very few qualify because of the necessity of massive amounts of capital in reserve, SOX 404, extensive time in business and finding a broker dealer to take you through the process; the second option is taking your company public OTCBB (over the counter bulletin boards), this process is inexpensive, lightning fast, minimal qualifications and offers start-ups and small/medium size business the ability to raise gargantuan amounts of capital from investors worldwide.

There is no other way to go public on a legitimate platform. With Pink Sheets and Reverse Mergers you'll only get burned so buyer beware! Are you short on cash? A popular mechanism for raising the initial capital to go public via OTCBB is by using a Private Placement Memorandum (Regulation D Rule 504) with a built in mini/maxi.

Right when you hit that minimum you can start using capital to grow your company while simultaneously initiating the 'going public' process.

The moral of this story...even if you're a startup or small business owner you can raise capital by going public! Get informed and get funded. - 23309

Buying Homes In Pre Foreclosure

By Jilly Willson

For the informed buyer, pre foreclosure homes can be very profitable Property owners in a pre foreclosure situation are highly motivated to sell the property quickly Generally, the property owner of a home in preforeclosure is extremely motivated to get the deal done quickly. This fact often points to a huge ROI for the real estate investor The biggest hurdle in the deal is getting the bank to agree to the terms of the sale instead of forcing the home through the pre foreclosure process.

The bank may not be so eager to let the transaction go through.Essentially they are in a lose lose situation and will evaluate sales offers based upon what will minimize their losses. If a property owner has put the property into pre foreclosure by stopping mortgage payments, it is still up to the buyer to demonstrate that by allowing the sale to go through, the bank will minimize their losses.

A result of this fact, real estate investors often assemble complete packages to plead their case to the bank. They learn who the loss mitigation people are at the bank and learn what is needed by the bank to complete the transaction.

While this is not necessary for the periodic investor, it does have a visible benefit for the novice real estate investors.

Aside from market factors, the pre foreclosure market is a great way to get a good bargain on an investment property Just know that there are a number of little details that will determine your overall level of success.

There are many other resources available to learn more about investing in short sales. BestShorSales.com is a learning service that I have found useful in the past - 23309

Buying Property In Pre Foreclosure

By Jilly Willson

For real estate investors, buying homes in pre foreclosure can be a great way to maximize their return on investment. Property owners in a pre foreclosure situation are highly motivated to sell the property quickly Because owners of pre foreclosure properties are facing financial challenges, they are often ready to accept almost any offer. All of this points to a huge upside for the property buyer. The only challenge is getting the bank to accept the offer to purchase instead of letting the property go through foreclosure and up for auction.

The bank might not be so eager to let the short sale proceed.Essentially they are in a lose lose situation and will evaluate sales offers based upon what will minimize their losses. If a property owner has stopped paying on a mortgage and the bank has put the home in pre foreclosure, then the burden is on the real estate investor to demonstrate that their purchase offer provides the most effective means for the bank to minimize their loss on the deal.

Because of this fact, investors that purchase homes in pre foreclosure often put together full short sale packages to provide to the bank. They get to know the loss mitigation agent of the bank that owns the property, and learn what is needed by the bank to complete the transaction.

A lot of investors find people to help them get started when buying pre foreclosures While this is not necessary for the periodic investor, it does have a visible benefit for the novice real estate investors.

Aside from market factors, the pre foreclosure market is a great way to get a good bargain on an investment property Just know that there are a number of little details that will determine your overall level of success.

Public Companies Succeed Faster When Triggering the Necessary Element of Emotion

By James Scott

Whether you are a modest local company or a large international corporation the need for strong publicity is a constant necessity for branding, direct marketing and lead generation. Publicists have been spoiled throughout the years by sending out pitch letters to radio shows, television news corporations and print media to put out a blurb about their client. These little blurbs usually give a minor jump in the pulse of an otherwise dead publicity campaign but the publicist feels that if they got you some coverage, they did their job, but now the game of publicity has changed.

The publicist profession has converged with the advertising agency to create a hybrid, one stop shop, ultra powerful, rapid response type of promotion now referred to as 'Publicity Marketing'. These consultants offer a cost effective, guerilla marketing approach that includes everything a business needs in one turnkey solution. Direct response, publicity campaigns, branding and other genres of targeted promotion are offered in an all inclusive service that any business can afford.

As publicity marketing has carved out a solid chunk of the corporate promotion market place it's forcing the evolution of marketing once again with the'60's mentality of 'emotions branding'. A good publicity marketing company will take a powerful marketing campaign and add jet fuel to the process by infusing the element of emotion to break through and grab hold of the subconscious mind where the most powerful messages are stored in the target candidate's mind and when they are ready to buy and automatic switch is flicked on and your brand takes precedence in their mind. The most experienced publicity marketers are able to trigger the 'buy now' button to induce sales and this entire process revolves around piercing through the conscious, judgmental and critical part of the mind and going right to the subconscious mind to store messages to promote your brand.

These messages are stored by using multiple colors, terms, word positioning, cornering and gently bombarding the candidate with your message until your brand becomes one with your industry terms. The publicity marketer must barrage the candidate with more than just a brand name but a solution to, but not limited to their direct need for your service. It doesn't matter if your selling widgets or motor oil, you must demonstrate how your brand will solve any issue they are currently struggling with, whether it's a gloomy day, they're stuck in traffic, their spouse is ignoring them, whatever, how is your brand going to pass through that critical faculty of the conscious mind and sooth their being with an overwhelming state of contentment?

Most likely your service won't be able to do this on it's own, but a good publicity marketing company will know exactly what nerves to touch so that your brand becomes a warm blanket and a soothing cup of tea on a stormy night. Make your brand the one stop cure for the clients emotional ailment and you've got them! - 23309

Fap Turbo - The Best Forex Website There Is

By Tom Poorker

If you are a forex newbie and want to learn more about it, the best thing that you can do is to check out different websites online. There are tons of these websites, by the way, so you would really have a grand time learning about the wonders of foreign exchange trading.

It will be amazing how much you will learn in just a span of minutes. A lot of forex gurus are coming up with their websites because they want to share some of their experiences in trading and sell products along the way.

A website that I found during a Google search turned out to be quite helpful and saved me a lot of work and research. The website is Fapturbo.com. Fapturbo.com offers a Forex robot, which does all your trading for you.

It may be your first time hearing about this but you can actually become a millionaire by doing nothing in the field of forex trading. Of course, you would just have to buy an effective forex robot. Then, your trading will run on autopilot and money will just be deposited straight to your account.

Don't believe me. That's OK, I might not believe me either. You should give this site a visit though. The Forex robot is a great tool that saves time and brain power on Forex trading.

I still have to see the real results because I just started with this but as soon as I saw the website and read how hard the developers worked to come up with this forex robot, I was immediately convinced that their product is worth checking out.

Not all Forex sites are clear and easy to understand. I don't know about you, but as soon as I start to get confused, I navigate away to another site. I didn't have that problem with Fapturbo. All the information was presented clearly in a way anyone could understand. Their guarantee that you will be able to turn a profit is in big bold letters.

The robot was less expensive than the ebooks and software I saw on other sites and with the guarantee I had nothing to lose so I decide to give it a try. Fapturbo.com doesn't guarantee you'll make money on every trade and I broke even a couple of times and once I actually lost a little. The majority of my trades turned a profit though. I may not be getting rich overnight, but I am making a steady profit.

If you will search about Fap Turbo, you would not find a single case of fraud filed against the developers practically because nothing was ever filed against them. The website is a hundred percent legit and honest at that. While most forex websites would claim that their product guarantees profit 100% of the time, Fap Turbo humbly claims that it could give anyone profit only 95.9% of the time.

Even if you don't make money on every single trade, you'll make more than you lose. No Forex trading software works every time.

You can make money on Forex. If you want to make money with a minimum of hassle, try the Fapturbo Forex robot. - 23309

ETF Trading Strategies: Basic Overview

By Patrick Deaton

After entering ETF trading an individual will find that there is a lot to learn about ETF trading strategies. The strategy that a person chooses to incorporate into their trading can affect the return on their investment and the balance that they are able to maintain in their portfolio. For that reason, it is important to gain as much knowledge as possible about each strategy and its advantages and disadvantages before committing.

Some of the steps for successful EFT trading apply to any strategy that is selected. However, there are some strategies that are more appropriate for long-term EFT trading and some that are especially designed to make short-term or daily trading profitable. Deciding on which type of trading is to be done will help a person to decide which strategies to incorporate into their trading regimen.

ETF trading strategies for an individual who may make changes to their portfolio periodically, but will maintain about the same types of allocation through several months or years will require more historical research than one may need for a quick turn-around in trading. There are entirely different strategies for the individual who wants to trade on a regular basis and make the most return on their investments on a regular basis.

Once the type of trader a person is has been decided, it will be important to do the homework to find the most effective trading strategy. The key to successful ETF trading is to have a plan, a method, a strategy, and stick to it. The trick is to find the most successful method and strategy to meet one's needs.

In general there are some important steps that a person can take to make any strategy they select more effective. One is to diversify the investments. By having funds in at least two sectors, commodities, or industries, a person is not putting all of their money at risk at the same time. Many people make the mistake of putting money in a sector that they are personally attached to. When selecting sectors a person must be willing to move the money when the trends indicate that a move is appropriate.

One of the EFT trading strategies is to set buy and sell points. Decisions are made on the technical indicators in the market. Basic factors about an industry are not part of the decision making process. In order to set buy and sell points an individual must analyze patterns and trends in the industry.
