| Investors Suck At Investing Posted: 19 Mar 2011 03:45 AM PDT Typical investors lose money trading. Here is a partial list of the issues they possess and how to resolve them.
They have trouble taking profits. They cannot take losses.
They wait too long to insure that the trend is in place, only to get in just in time for a pullback.
They lose two times in a row, and refuse to take the next trade – therefore, they fail to recognize the big move.
They trade stocks and don’t take into account factors that can influence the stock’s … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Weekly Fundamental Analysis
Volatility returned to the capital markets this week as investors experienced large swings in numerous financial instruments. Currencies, commodities and equities were liquidated as investors moved into safe haven investments early in the week. The Nikkei equity markets moved lower by 16% on the first two trading days of the week, which could only be topped by the 5% move in the USD/JPY on late Wednesday evening / early Thursday … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

The Central Banks to the Rescue
The G7 countries announced a coordinated currency intervention in an effort to calm volatility within the capital markets, specifically the increasing strength of the Yen. The BOJ, Bundesbank, BOE and Bank of France purchase dollars and euro’s and sold yen. The yen weakened as much as 3.5% versus the dollar, reaching the resistance at 82. This is the first coordinated intervention since September, … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

| Natural Gas Forecast For March 21, 2011 Posted: 19 Mar 2011 01:50 AM PDT By CommoditiesMansion.com
After making a massive move upward on Thursday, the Natural Gas market surprised with a relatively unchanged day on Friday. Because of this, the bar printed was a doji, a classic technical signal. The entry works like this: If we break above todays high – Nat Gas is a buy. If we break below it, Nat Gas is a sell. Until we break out of todays range, this market is to be monitored, not traded.

| Oil Forecast For March 21, 2011 Posted: 19 Mar 2011 01:49 AM PDT By CommoditiesMansion.com
Light Sweet Crude (CL)
The CL had a lackluster performance today, after what was originally looking to be very bullish action. We have formed a shooting star on the daily chart at roughly the $102 area, which could be seen as minor resistance.
It appears that after yesterday's extremely bullish action, this market needs to rest. A pullback to $97.50 certainly looks possible at this point as the bulls will try to collect more allies to push prices … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Gold had another bullish day today after getting that supportive action we wanted. Because of this, you should have made money on this trade. The future direction of gold seems to be up, as we not only have had bullish action, but we are presently forming what could become a flag. If that proves to be true – we could have another $1,500 to go! Of course the top of the flag has to be broken first, but it appears there is strength regardless.

| Natural Gas Forecast For The Week Of March 21, 2011 Posted: 19 Mar 2011 01:48 AM PDT By CommoditiesMansion.com
This week saw Nat Gas finally get a decent amount of bids. At the time of writing, we are sitting right at a minor support and resistance area, $4.15. If we can break free of this level, $4.30 should follow, with the bulls taking control. It should be noted however, the bears have been in control of this market for a very, very long time. All long positions will tend to be sloppy in nature, as it often the case with countertrend trading. If we fail to … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Light Sweet Crude (CL)
The CL contract finished the week on a bearish tone as it printed a shooting star on Friday. However, this should be kept in context of what is going on – a massive bull market in oil. The commodity looks like it needs a rest, and it will probably pull back for a few dollars. The real key to continue the bull run will be if we can stay above $95. Above that level and CL is still bullish. Brent

| USD/CHF Long-term Forecast For The Week Of March 21, 2011 Posted: 19 Mar 2011 01:39 AM PDT By ForexMansion.com
The USD/CHF pair has broken past all signs of support, and is currently on its way towards the 0.88 handle, and possibly lower. The previous rectangle measured 500 pips, and that is where the technicals are leading us – 500 pips below the break out. With the weekly candle closing so bearishly, there is really no reason to buy this pair yet, and all rallies are simply chances to sell again until we close above the 0.93 handle.

| NZD/USD Long-Term Forecast For The Week Of March 21, 2011 Posted: 19 Mar 2011 01:37 AM PDT By ForexMansion.com
The Kiwi dollar has broken the all-important 0.73 handle and bounced back to that level in the last couple of days, forming a bullish hammer. For the short term, this pair could be volatile as we figure out what to do. However, this bar shows that there might be real strength underlying in the pair, and could be seen as a sign of things to come.
Overall, if we break above this bar, it means that we will probably see a retest of 0.78, and possibly a continuation of … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

| EUR/USD Long-Term Forecast For The Week Of March 21, 2011 Posted: 19 Mar 2011 01:37 AM PDT By ForexMansion.com
By breaking above the 1.40 area, the EUR/USD has entered a new bull phase. The area was considered to be very strong, and as such, traders piled into the buying of this pair. It now appears that the 1.42 area is minor resistance, and should give way. A run to 1.45 seems to be in the cards. In order to sell this pair, we would have to retreat back below the 1.38 level, however unlikely that might seem.

The AUD/NZD has busted through the 1.35 area, retraced, and now formed a bullish hammer at the 1.35 level. Until this bar is violated to the downside, no serious consideration can be given to selling this pair. The impressive run seems to want to continue, and should be assumed that it will. A move to 1.40 seems to be in the cards for the AUD/NZD.

With the G-7 announcing that they were all going to sell off the yen this week, it appears that this pair has a floor in it, at least for the short-term. With the wild gyrations in this market, it has been a tough one to trade recently. As you can see, we have had a major drop, followed by intervention, which of course stopped at the bottom of the pennant that was drawn a while ago.

The AUD/NZD has busted through the 1.35 area, fell back and found support, and now seems content to rest at these levels. This is typical as strong bullish runs like we have seen in this pair typically need to consolidate in order to keep going. Because of this, the bulls seem to be firmly in control, and it appears that the only real trade in this pair is to either be flat, or to be long.

The AUD/USD has found support at the 0.97 and formed a massive hammer as well. This is a very bullish sign, and points to a northerly direction. However, there is a lot of noise between here and the 1.02 level. As such, it is advised that any new longs in this pair should wait until we get a clean break above that level. Alternately, if this pair gets below 0.97, the formation of the hammer would suggest that this market would have breached a massive support level … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

The Kiwi dollar has broken the all-important 0.73 handle and bounced back to that level in the last couple of days. This is quite typical as support will need to be retested as resistance quite often. This however, leaves us with a bit of a question as to the future of this pair.
In the mean time, it is probably wise to see what Monday brings before placing a trade. A break above 0.7380 would be very bullish as it erases the plunge down through support. If this … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Looking at the weekly chart, there is a pennant that triggered, but it is followed by a very bullish and massive hammer. His pair looks confused at best, and is probably best avoided.
However, with the central banks showing they are willing to step in at this point, the weekly hammer might be valid. … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

The Canadian dollar has recently busted back through the 0.98 level, and now has found support at that area. This is common, and appears to support the idea that we are going to tread water between 0.98 and 1.0000 for the short-term. The pair looks like it is confused, but with a slightly bullish bias.
A break above 1.0000 would be a hugely bullish signal, while a drop below 0.97 would send this pair back down towards 0.95 and 0.90 in an attempt to find … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

For the time being, we are looking to buy the EUR/USD only. A short doesn't even come into play until the 1.38 area is violated. We are currently suggesting longs at the 1.40 area on signs of support, or at the 1.42 area on a break … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

The AUD/USD has found support at the 0.97 level as predicted, and is now testing the 1.0000 level. Since this is a midpoint between two larger areas, it is advised that no new trades are taken here, but rather shorts at 1.02 (with a tight stop) and longs at 0.97. If we see a failure to rise above the 1.0000 level, this could be a hint to a further breakdown below 0.97 and moving below.

The USD/CHF pair had a small pop today, but nothing to get too concerned about if you are shorting this pair. The preferred direction is still down as long as we stay under 0.92, with rallies simply being another opportunity to sell the dollar against the franc.
Any move above 0.93 would have to be considered a massive bull move, and would have us rethinking our position. Until then – this pair is a sell.

The cable has found support at 1.60 as we reported to you a few days ago. Because of the longer-term trend, it appears that the slow grind will continue in this pair. Unless we see a close below that 1.60 area, this pair will continue to be bullish on the whole. However, it should be noted that 1.63 has served as resistance recently, and very well could again. This pair should continue to grind northward.

Historically, activities that might be restricted when conditions are good are often looked at in a more pragmatic light when the money dries up.
