Weekly Market Wrap: Taking Profit on Short Positions!

Market Analysis
Deset Safari Dubai UAE

Last week, we saw the bearish trend continue for stocks, crypto and REITs, as well as the bullish trend for USD.

Since we have been holding these positions for quite a while, and they are all deeply in the money, I have decided to close these positions and take profits.

Some of these positions were also getting a bit overbought/oversold, and some were nearing support/resistance, so I thought it would be a good idea to take profits and stand aside to see if there is any rebound, where we can re-enter the market at a better price.

This month has been one of the most profitable for our portfolio, and there is a good chance that the long-term trends will continue till the end of the year.

Want to know when to re-enter the market?

Weekly Market Wrap: The Bears are Back in Full force!

Market Analysis
Melbourne Australia

After the rate hike last week, and the continued hawkish tone of the Fed, the market bears are now back in full force!

As we mentioned in our video last week, the long-term trend is still bearish, so the short-term rebound of the market was an excellent shorting opportunity.

And those shorts have paid off, when markets plunged after the FOMC, and all shorts are deeply in the money now. If the markets continue to fall, this could end up being our most profitable month this year!

Next week, the strategy largely remains the same, which is to accumulate more short positions on any pullbacks.

Stay tuned for more profitable trading opportunities in our Daily Trading Signals Telegram channel!

Weekly Market Wrap: Inflation Continues to Plague Markets!

Market Analysis
Kutna Hora Czech Republic

With inflation continuing to plague markets, based on the most recent CPI numbers, the Fed is most likely going to continue hiking interest rates, which is bearish for the markets.

In my last weekly market outlook video, I mentioned that the long-term trend is still bearish, and we should either by waiting to short, or short-term trading positions if going long (to ride the bullish momentum early last week).

Now that the market bears are back in full force, we have started to initiate short positions, and I expect to be adding more short positions on pullbacks as prices continue to fall.

Stay tuned for more updates in our “Daily Trading Signals” Telegram channel!

Weekly Market Wrap: Is the Market Oversold?

Market Analysis
Siem Reap Cambodia

After the large sell-off last week in stocks and crypto, it won’t be surprising if we see a short-tern rebound the upcoming week.

Overall, the long-term trend is still bearish.

The key figure to watch is still inflation, and how aggressively the Fed will hike rates on 21 September.

Many of short trades have hit TP1 or TP2, so it was a good idea to take profits before the rebound happened.

Now, we can either trade the short-term momentum, or just stand aside and wait for the long-term bear trend to resume before taking new short positions.

I have placed all the triggers and trade alerts in my “Daily Trading Signals”, so you will know when it happens. Stay tuned!

Weekly Market Wrap: Will We Be Seeing New Lows Very Soon?

Market Analysis
Tokyo Japan

As I mentioned in my “Weekly Market Outlook” video for subscribers, almost every asset class is very bearish, as you can see from my “Weekly Portfolio Update” snapshot.

This bearishness can be observed in various price patterns, as well as technical indicators and market psychology.

Every week, I publish my full portfolio allocation so there is 100% transparency on my positions and holdings.

At that point, I was short on equities, REITs, and crypto, and all these have plunged a lot since the Fed announced that it will continue to fight inflation (aka. hike rates).

As we continue to stack positions, this could turn out to be the biggest trade of the year if prices continue to drop and hit new lows. I will be monitoring and placing alerts for new shorting opportunities.

Stay tuned in our “Daily Trading Signals” Telegram channel!
