Finance Market Basics: Lesson 1 follow the trend

In terms of the stock market, until the Fed changes its mind, all sharp corrections have to be viewed as buying opportunities, and backbreaking corrections have to be placed in the category of “once in a lifetime events”, provided of course the trend is positive.  That is what we are here for; to inform you if the trend is positive (Up) or negative (down).   The world is going to witness a Fed that has decided to make a cocktail of Coke, Heroin, Crack and Meth and take it all in one shot. Imagine what a junkie on this combination of potent drugs is capable of doing, and you will have an idea of where the Fed is heading in the years to come.

Now the Gold bugs will cry “I told you so”. Our response to this statement; not so fast little bugs. While precious metals will do well, we think stocks in key sectors (and we are not referring to Gold stocks) will pulverise the precious metals sector in terms of returns. One such area is robots (particularly Sex-bots) and AI. Forever QE; the Program that never stops giving

The stronger the deviation the better the opportunity, the trend is your friend unless you try to fight for if you do it will turn into your nemesis.  We would like one person to point out one instance over the long when a permabar has been correct on the trend of the market. If you betted against the market in the run you would be blown out of the water decades ago, that is why there is not one successful permabear when one takes the long term perspective.   Case in point, the backbreaking so-called market crash of 1987 and the even scarier one of 2008.  The chart below clearly proves that being a long term bear is dangerous for one’s financial health

Treat Stock Market Corrections as Opportunities

Take time to understand the main principles of Mass Psychology as without that you will give in to fear every time the market’s pullback strongly. Understand that our first reaction is to flee when confronted with any danger, don’t fight that feeling, study it and understand it for it is. When you study it, you will come to see how bad such emotions are and in doing so, you will have moved to the stage where you will have the power to say yes or no when exposed to a similar situation.  Read history books; you do not have to learn from your experiences only; you can learn by studying the reactions of other people

Once you have mastered that, find 2-3 technical indicators that appeal to you.  They must appeal to you; don’t just choose them because they sound fancy or they are promoted as being the best ones out there.  Once you find some appealing technical indicators, study them and look for patterns.  Technical analysis is like art; beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  Use long-term charts preferably weekly and monthly charts.
