All About Global Macro Trading

The global macro trading system can work effectively for every trader. If you have an already established system that works for you, why not expand it to participate in global macro trading?


If you have already been an established day trader, have you considered gravitating into a market that has more options such as the entire planet? Similar to a doctor attempting to diagnose an ailment, you have to search and then search once again to reach the end result. At times, the doctor will prescribe medications that just don’t seem to work, and you go back to the doctor to try something different. Well, it is no different in the stock market. You may think you are on track and it fails, so you attempt something different up until you find something that works.

If you are a stock trader, you understand this methodology. You have your system tweaked to the point where you know how to check your price to earnings and then price to book. You also look at the return you will receive on your equity, right? The better the system you have built, the better protection you have in the market thus improving your risk to rewards. The stock market is not an easy business. Sometimes it becomes a matter of trial and error. Eventually, we are fortunate and then other times, we tend to lose. The more educated you are the better a risk to reward you will have.


The global macro trading market provides an edge as it is worldwide, which means you can trade any instrument using the strategy you have developed globally. That means your chances of locating the best investment are greater. This market has really made a tremendous comeback compared to the last couple of years of trading. This is because a lot of people were trading long and leveraged. The macro traders however were shorting housing and financials then going long and doing some real interesting trading in short treasuries and dabbling in the commodities market.


What this really means is the global macro trading market provides a lot of options to test a variety of strategies. So if you set up your strategies to build on a model that you wish to invest, in you could be a real winner. This is a specialized market and the person who is new to stock trading might want to educate themselves before becoming active. If you are an active day trader that utilizes the same stocks day in and day out, you might not have an interest in global macro trading. However, anyone else that wants a variety and has a need to venture into a new market with a high variety, then global macro trading might be for you.

Alternative Energy Gets Better Everyday

Alternative Energy has been on the minds of people for decades and as the time goes on the technology improves. The price of oil is once again on the rise. The cost of coal has risen and after the latest disaster in Kentucky it has shown us that we need to move towards alternative energy.

Out of all the different alternative energy sources, wind power seems to be the best choice of them all. Why do I say that? Well, it’s because wind power can cost as litter as $0.02 per kwh. One company that I’ve spoken about before and I still stand behind is Mass MegaWatts Wind Power Inc. (MMGW,OB: OTC). They have been doing the right thing in progressing towards a more efficient way in producing wind energy.

Last Friday they released a report in regards to their new design in their turbine blades. Mass MegaWatts has multiple patents on their equipment and that alone will bring value to the company. With many other wind turbine designs, they are costly when it comes to repairs. Unlike other designs, Mass MegaWatts has put together a unit that doesn’t require huge cranes to make repairs to their blades. Mass MegaWatts have also designed a product that is not harmful to birds. The big GE wind turbines have killed many birds, including ones that are on the endangered list.

Presently the stock is sitting at around $0.70 per share and is ready for a break out. they have things in the works that will increase their revenue immensely. I’ve spoken to the company and from what we’ve talked about, this stock is ready to explode. In the coming weeks we will hear a lot of news from this company and I know that it will be positive and wall street will finally take notice of it’s potential. Currently there are no analyst covering this stock, which of course is good for investors looking to get in at good price before everyone else jumps on the “band wagon”.

Look for yourself and you will see that this is the next alternative energy company that will bring new and great things.

Happy Trading.

Is This A Real Rally?

Oh well, here we go again. After spending the last week or so losing 700 points and falling below 10,000 points at the close. Everyone feels that the stock market is on the rise again. Earnings season is upon us as a matter of fact we have Disney reporting after the close. I am pretty sure that they will not beat the street. Why is that? Besides the fact that I am a season ticket holder and have seen how much business they have lost in their Parks. Their latest movie, The Princess and the Frog, did not do as well as it was expected. They also have to take into account the fact that they bought Marvel Entertainment Inc.


To get back on my original thought, It seems that the media is talking about how this rally is “real”, I don’t think so. How can it when you have sales down in many business’ and people are still losing their jobs. Look before you leap back into any stocks at this time. Yes, I know the markets have corrected themselves in the last week or so, but isn’t that what we were saying a year and a half ago? History has shown us that there is always a second bounce. It’s my opinion that we will see the second bounce some time in the first half of this year.


I’ve been sitting on the sidelines for the last few months when it comes to actively trading on a day-by-day basis. I did make some acquisitions of some stocks like Ford (NYSE: F), as well as Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL). Those trades were made for the long haul since I do have confidence in those companies and the people running them. I’m going to continue to wait for the other shoe to fall before I get back into the day trading. My advice to you is to do the same, but then again who am I?

Do what you may ,but consider yourself warned.
Happy Trading.
