Stocks Bull Market Hits Eurozone Debt Crisis Brick Wall, Forecast Into July 2010 / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Are the markets manipulated ? Are they ?
You have been repeatedly told by those that clearly don't immerse themselves in trading on a regular basis that they are not manipulated instead the movements are a function of some ordered theory that implies certainty of outcome when all one can do in reality is to conclude towards a probability of outcome that are usually little better than 60/40, well on the 6th everyone got the answer that they should imprint into their memories that the markets REALLY ARE manipulated. If your going to learn one lesson from 2010 then let that be the lesson learned. Contemplate on it, let it sink in, let it skew how you interpret price action and maybe you too can join in on future market manipulations!

Gold, Silver and SP500 Stock Index Trading Charts / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Chris_Vermeulen
Last week was amazing for both gold and index traders as gold surged higher and the SP500 tested a key resistance then fell 4% in our favor. The past couple weeks with the mini market crash and Euro issues making the market extra volatile both gold and the broad market (SP500) index has been wild.
The added volatility makes trading more difficult because price patterns become less predictable and price movements are much larger increasing risk for traders.

Stock Market Rally Failure Whilst Gold Rally Continues / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Steve_Betts
“I wouldn't call it fascism exactly, but a political system nominally controlled by an irresponsible, dumbed down electorate who are manipulated by dishonest, cynical, controlled mass media that dispense the propaganda of a corrupt political establishment can hardly be described as democracy either.” --- Edward Zehr
This may come as a shock to you but we are now living in interesting times. These interesting times are being brought to you by the folks around the world who created massive debts that can never be paid. At first it was difficult to catch on because they disguised the debt in the dual forms of derivatives and fiat currencies.

China Stock Market Crash In Progress / Stock-Markets / Chinese Stock Market
By: Robert_McHugh_PhD
Financial pundits everywhere are saying China is the future, China is where the action is, China will be the world's economic leader.
Well, hate to spoil the party, but China's stock market is crashing. If its stock market is crashing, and stock markets are leading indicators for economies, it means China is about to fall into a deep recession. Further, a huge Head & Shoulders top pattern we show below warns that if the SSEC drops below 1,750ish, China's SSEC could drop to zero, that an economic depression, economic calamity, is coming to China.

End of the Stocks Bear Market Rally? / Stock-Markets / Stocks Bear Market
By: Tim_Wood
The price action earlier this month was no doubt an extreme and I’m still seeing and hearing discussion about whether or not it was “real.” Personally, I think it was and as a technician I take the price action at face value. Ultimately, this could prove to be the beginning of the end of the bear market rally that began at the March 2009 low. From a Dow theory perspective, the bullish trend change that occurred in association with the counter-trend move out of the March 2009 low still remains intact.

Stock Market Beyond Help / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Adam_Brochert
You know you're beyond help when a big, scary down trading day in the stock market gets the government to investigate. If the stock market goes down, there has to be an investigation. For everyone deserves prosperity. Be honest for just a minute and answer this question: would governments investigate the market if it suddenly went 2,000 points higher (whether by accident or due to intentional manipulation) in the course of an hour? Are there circuit breakers for overly fast bull moves in the stock market?

Stock Market Trend Decisively Broken, Trading on Emotion – Eurozone Blues / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Peter_Navarro
Last week, I indicated that the market trend was broken and that the best strategy for a risk-averse retail investor in the absence of a clear upward trend was a move to cash. So emotionally, just how did you handle that observation when the stock market soared on the following Monday?

Euro Plunge, Stocks Bear, Gold Topping and China SSEC Reversal / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2010
By: Anthony_Cherniawski

Indian Stock Market Detailed Technical Analysis with Chart studies / Stock-Markets / India
By: StocksBuddy
As stated in our analysis from previous analysis, market did rally back from the oversold levels. Though market did bounce back, it once again found resistance at the center line of BB which runs around 5200. Market took cues from global rally and echoed the same here. However, towards the end of the week, all the enthusiasm waned. EUR, got a facelift on monday with a $1trillion bailout in Europe. However, it gave up all of the gains from monday and actually has broken down big time during the week.
US markets too ended up on a sour note on friday and Asia is expected to open flat to negative on monday because of this.
A lot of action took place last week.
Nifty once again found support outside of the lower Bollinger bands. Each day nifty went down, it had a long hammer. This clearly suggests that nifty does not really want to go down, but is going down because of reasons beyond it's control, viz. global conditions. This shows the relative strength of nifty. The question everyone has been asking is whether this is just a minor correction or is it start of a new downtrend. Looking at weekly chart, it doesn't bode well with Bulls right now as we have a "Shooting Star". Good news in this bad one is that nifty closed positive for the week.

Stock Market Steep Losses Despite Late Snapback Rally / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Harry_Boxer
Well, the week ended on quite the negative note, as the stock market indices started sharply lower and moved lower for most of the morning. About 11:30 they bounced, then backed and filled for several hours in what appeared to be a basing attempt. After a late afternoon retest of the lows on the S&P 500 for the third time, they held, then snapped back sharply, and for the last 30 minutes took back a big chunk of the losses.

Has The World Had Enough Of Governments?......Market Has!.... / Stock-Markets / Government Intervention
By: Jack_Steiman
When Governments start to intervene on everything maybe it's time for them to stop. Maybe the stock market is sending a message that it has had enough of their constant interference. The Government is trying to make the world pay for others discretions. How many more taxes can they create so we can pay for their bail outs for those who deserve to fail? How many innocent people have to lose their jobs because the Government puts undue tax burdens on corporate America and corporations around the world that will force these corporations to fire employees? At what point does the pot runeth over and we have more than we asked for? Will there be blood on the streets? Riots such as those that we saw in Greece right here in our back yards!

Stock Markets In the Eye of a Financial Storm? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010
By: Sy_Harding
Living in Florida I’ve been in the eye of several hurricanes. In the eye, one side of the storm has passed and there is great relief. There’s some rubble and signs of destruction, but the sun is shining. We begin to pick up the pieces. There’s a hopeful feeling the danger has passed. Then you listen to the weather forecasters and learn it’s just a temporary respite. You’re in the eye of the storm. The other side of it is about to arrive, sometimes with more fury than the first side.

What's the VIX Saying For the Stock Market Trend? / Stock-Markets / Volatility
By: Marty_Chenard
Remember the old story of the "Three blind men and the elephant"?
In the tale, each man touches a different part of the elephant and think it is something different. One thinks its a snake, another a tree, and the versions of this story carry on. But, what is the same is that all three disagree with each other and are in conflict.
