While I’m no political expert, it seems that things are calming down in the Middle East and both sides can claim some sort of moral victory, which could just pave the way for meaningful negotiations down the track, not to mention convenient reputation enhancement just in time for an election! The same goes with trade […]

Happy New Year to you! Regardless of whatever else is going on in the world, 2020 is going to be the best year for OVI Traders for a number of reasons which I’ll highlight shortly, one of which is our new mobile-optimized platform for stocks (already released to London Workshop attendees) and for options, which will […]
Greetings from Oman! More dramas earlier in the week, fueled by US trade concerns and causing a few uncomfortable whipsaws, but ultimately being shaken off by a market that wants to keep going in an upward trajectory. I mentioned last time that the markets did look good for more upside and they’ve done exactly that, […]
The markets look good for more upside so that’s where our focus will continue today. The one month trend pie is 75% bullish and large, while the two month trend pie is shading it bearish and small … similar to last week. There are now only SIX days until my OVI Traders Workshop on 30th November, […]
Another productive week of pre and post earnings action despite the relatively low Dashboard counts for one and two month trends. At the same time the pies for flags and earnings are all in rude health. In the coming days I’m going to reveal the new mobile-optimized TradeFinder which will give you more precision and […]

Earnings season is now in full swing and the early odds are that it will be positive and choppy. In today’s market review you’ll see exactly how I’ve arrived at that by using the fantastic OVI Dashboard tool. Trading is all about playing the odds, and we have the tools and technique to determine those […]
More gyrations in the markets last week as we now embark on earnings season. We now have something to really sink our teeth into. While I love my pre-earnings strategy, my main focus this time around will be straddles (ie playing volatility) and post-earnings. There’s a good chance of large moves as the nonsense of the last couple […]
Last weekend was a good call to stay quiet in this news-driven choppy market. BUT … you must keep alert because things can change very quickly, literally in a matter of a few days, and we get paid to be patient but on our wits. This week is much the same … just keep watching […]
Another choppy, news-driven week in the markets which is not optimal for our style or purposes … So with earnings coming in just a few weeks anyway, I thought we’d just observe the markets this week because more optimal conditions will come around soon enough. This is also a huge lesson in trading our particular […]
