My advisor has been losing my money for the lost decade.

Ten years ago on a sunny afternoon, I walked in into my advisors office. The rich, plush, leather chairs invited me to sit down. He greeted me with a warm smile and a firm handshake and asked how he could help me as he adjusted his $70 tie. I plopped my checkbook on the table and proceeded to tell him that I wanted my money to grow, that I wanted to “invest in the markets”. He gladly told me that he had some financial investment vehicles that he could show me to make that money grow. Since I was young he told me the best scenario was to go aggressive with my investments.

You have heard of this scenario a thousand times, and may have gone through the same process in your life with your advisor or broker. He started with a spreadsheet about how if I invested by the time I was 30 my account would grow by 50%-60% and that every year after that it would grow exponentially. Told me by the time I was 60 the account value would be in the millions! I am 26 and ten years later that money is now in the red. Let me break this down. If Joe Advisor had not collected an advisor fee every year my account would be positive by 9%. Since he collected his fee every year and paid himself off of my account and others, it chipped away at the performance of that account. My cash not only sat in those investments collecting dust, but also were not properly managed. If sold at the peaks and re-bought at the valleys, my account would be up 60%-150%. I could show you on a chart that as the bad news emerged into the market place that it was obvious the market top had been reached, therefore it was time to sell. With the market bleeding to new lows in March of 2009, and the world seemed to be ending, it was followed by a powerful rally after Bank of America and Citigroup posted profits, the bottom had essentially been reached… Time To Start Buying!

I am not saying that Joe Advisor needed to catch the very tops or bottoms, just close to it, you know like hand grenades, or horseshoes. With that being said I want to tell you how I went to interview to be an advisor with a huge advisory firm and what they told me. I sat in this meeting with a few other candidates and they gave me three criteria to pursue in order to become a “successful advisor”.

1. List as many people as you know that would have money to “invest” (AKA buy, pray, and hope). This included family members. Those poor poor people.
2. Ask these new prospects/clients what their “dream goals” were for their portfolio and their investments. (Sound familiar) In other words financial sales…
3. Create a plan for their portfolio and start investing their money in these financial instruments and start holding their hand as you build the relationship over the years to come. (This is ridiculous! If I want a friend I do not need to manage his money first.)

To carry on… I left that interview and this is the first thing that I thought about. How are my interests aligned with the investors interests. They are not aligned! No matter what happens in the market I still would collect my industry standard 1% management fee off of the assets under management. Let us assume that I had $4,000,000 under management, that would equate to $40,000/yr for my salary. That did not make any sense to me, as long as I was good at sales, then I would succeed! I could not continue thinking that I could pitch a lie and win in life. I needed truth, and a new business model to pitch with conviction.

Here was my newest investment pitch:

1. Account Owner shall immediately establish under his name one (1) Trading/Investment Accounts with TD Ameritrade, with Margin and all Options-Trading features activated, and shall fund the Trading Account with a sum of $1,000,000.00; and

2. Account Owner shall pay to Authorized Trader Or Account Manager weekly Commissions, based upon net profits generated each week within the Trading Account; and said Commissions shall be paid according to the following Commissions Schedule:
20% of the week’s net profits (realized gains only) generated within the Trading Account or Investment Account, if those net profits increase the value of the respective Trading Account(s) by less 1.5%; or
28% of the week’s net profits (realized gains only) generated within the Trading Account or Investment Account, if those net profits increase the value of the respective Trading Account(s) by 1.5% or greater,

3. In the event that the Account Value of the Trading Account or Investment Account shall fall to $950,000, (5% loss) Account Owner may opt to close that particular Trading Account or Investment account, and terminate this Agreement with the Authorized Trader or Manager, managing that particular Trading Account.

In other words if I didn’t make that account grow then I would not be paid!

As I started doing research over the years I started to assemble a strategy that would grow my account at an incredible rate. Yes at first I LOST, this is where I learned my most valuable lessons! My thesis concluded that 65-70 times out of 100 I would be correct in my intelligent speculations. There were two primary things that I learned. Most investors would buy the stock blindly (Ill explain)… because the company was fundamentally strong, a low P/E, no debt, great management, the strongest competitor, and a great stock price compared to tangible book value. I saw this flaw and started to analyze charts or also known as technical analysis. As I started to study charting, I realized a miracle! I could really identify the bottoms and tops of the move in the stock. As I mixed my new “market eyes” with fundamentals, my investments/trades started to take off! In three months I had my $800 baby/test/account which I was just playing with to see if I could grow it, go from $800 grow to $6800 in three months!

BAMM I fired my advisor!

You are Fired!

You are Fired!

Then I decided to take what I had learned and teach others and here I am today, doing just that. So as I invest then I will learn more and more about the markets. This year will be opening my own advisory and hedge-fund based off these underlying profitable principles. Many of my current subscribers are very happy as I show them my techniques and show them how to find the best stocks to put your money in. The thing is that I am just showing them what I am doing, and if they want to follow in, that is totally up to them. Many of them have anywhere from $1000-$600,000 accounts so these techniques are applicable across all account sizes.

Well anyways, I am off to downtown San Diego to swim with the dolphins at Sea World… Maybe. Have a great Martin Luther King Day!

How Did Jesse Livermore Trade?

For one check out this link.

Jesse used to work as a 14 year old kid in the tape reading rooms for a living. He would track the bids and asks on all the tapes and over time he started to notice patterns in the prices that were predictable. As he started noticing these patterns he developed a set of rules listed below that he followed for the rest of his life.

Here are the stock trading rules that made Jesse Livermore’s one of the world’s greatest fortunes. Many successful stock and commodity traders still base their methods on these rules.

* Buy rising stocks and sell falling stocks.
* Do not trade every day of every year. Trade only when the market is clearly bullish or bearish. Trade in the direction of the general market. If it’s rising you should be long, if it’s falling you should be short.
* Co-ordinate your trading activity with pivot points.
* Only enter a trade after the action of the market confirms your opinion and then enter promptly.
* Continue with trades that show you a profit, end trades that show a loss.
* End trades when it is clear that the trend you are profiting from is over.
* In any sector, trade the leading stock – the one showing the strongest trend.
* Never average losses by, for example, buying more of a stock that has fallen.
* Never meet a margin call – get out of the trade.
* Go long when stocks reach a new high. Sell short when they reach a new low.

These rules he followed are used by many professionals even today. He started with $100 or so and as he started trading he turned it into $1000. He ended up quitting his job and trading full-time because he was earning more than what his boss’s were paying him. He ended up being worth about 100,000,000 in those days. In today’s worth, that would be the billions.

To assess Jesse’s fortune more scientifically, the measuring worth calculator gave the following results for today’s value of $100 million in 1929:

$1.26 billion using the Consumer Price Index
$1.02 billion using the GDP deflator
$2.27 billion using the value of consumer bundle
$3.97 billion using the unskilled wage
$5.51 billion using the nominal GDP per capita
$13.7 billion using the relative share of GDP

The key I believe is that he followed his strategy to a tee and refused to deviate from his rules. He actually lost all his money at one point after breaking his rules, that is where he learned to stick by them. He was a resilient man. His lifestyle wasn’t to shabby after he had attained his riches.

In terms of the lifestyle Livermore’s wealth bought, Patricia Livermore, Jesse Livermore’s daughter-in-law gave a fascinating interview in 1990 for a documentary about the crash of 1929. Here’s part of what she said about the Livermore lifestyle:

“They had a beautiful place on 76th Street in Manhattan on the West Side, off Central Park. They had a floor at 813 Fifth Avenue because Dorothea did not like to go to the West Side to change her clothes. They had a house in Great Neck. They had a summer house in Lake Placid. They had a house in Palm Beach. They had a private railroad car, two yachts. The only yacht that was bigger was J. P. Morgan’s. And they used one of them, the big one, very frequently when they went to Europe. They lived very comfortably…

Jesse Livermore had a ticker tape in every home that he owned, on his railway cars, on his yachts… They had several Rolls Royces, lots of chauffeurs. They had a staff of about 20 or 25 and in each place, in each house, see, and with the exception of Dorothea’s personal maid, they did not take their staffs with them. They simply kept them year-round in all their establishments…

Oh, they lived. They really lived… Mrs. Livermore was a spender. And, of course, she loved to buy. She spent her days buying and buying and buying…”

So all this to say that the one of the world’s greatest traders has a lot of lessons to learn from. But first and foremost God provides these sort of blessings. In order to be able to do such a thing, you must conquer several things, greed, fear, human behaviors that can psychologically disable your trading. So… I hope you enjoyed this article and to end this week with a great week of trading, we will finish with a quote from Jesse Livermore himself.

On Odds

“But I can tell you after the market began to go my way I felt for the first time in my life that I had allies – the strongest and truest in the world; underlying conditions.”

On Charting Basics

“If a stock doesn’t act right don’t touch it; because, being unable to tell precisely what is wrong, you cannot tell which way it is going. No diagnosis, no prognosis. No prognosis, no profit.”

The hidden Gem that fits our strategy perfectly…

Congratulations to those who joined our program today. This is so cool that we can earn monies together and build a community of people that will help bring support and transparency to the market-place.

We want to show you guys how to earn money trading and the only way to do that is to be on the same page. Our strategy was just reviewed and purchased by a Wharton Grad (Buffett went there) and he said it was a phenomenal course. Don’t just listen to me, purchase it and watch our alerts and you will see for yourself. What do you have to lose its a 30 day money-back guarantee and there is a smoking deal that goes with it that we have going on right now. Ask us about the Christmas sale. Now for the meantime I have a company that is getting manipulated but in no way shape or form should be down here.

SYNM is a company that is dedicated to creating alternative fuels of energy sources out of disposed Chicken fat from TYSON Chickens factories. They have been opening plants left and right and they are really a $14-$15 stock that should not be down here what so ever! They have a low pe and have plenty of equity, their books aren’t cooked and best of all they are American!

Syntroleum Corporation engages in the research, development, and commercialization of the Syntroleum Process that is designed to convert natural gas into synthetic liquid hydrocarbons. It owns the Syntroleum Process for Fischer-Tropsch (FT) conversion of synthesis gas derived from biomass, coal, natural gas, and other carbon-based feedstocks into liquid hydrocarbons; the Synfining Process for upgrading FT liquid hydrocarbons into middle distillate products, such as synthetic diesel and jet fuels; and the Bio-Synfining technology for converting animal fat and vegetable oil feedstocks into middle distillate products, such as renewable diesel and jet fuel. The company has a joint venture agreement with Tyson Foods, Inc. Syntroleum Corporation was founded in 1996 and is based in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

This company in the next year will not be the same same that they are now. They have a great fundamental underpinnings and I am long in it for the long-haul with 3000 shares here in these prices especially when it hit 2.02 I was drooling as I added to the position. With this stock alone I will buy my next Ferrari :)

New Ferrari Thanks To C Squared Trading

New Ferrari Thanks To C Squared Trading

Our traders and subscribers banked today after we found out they had shorted AAPL, and SVM going hot and heavy on our alerts in the SKYOE Chat room. On the Long side our PUDA buy is rocking as well as our CHOP 5.25 buy going as high as 5.74 today, may break 6 tomorrow.

Finding the best Chinese companies.

As always in order to find the best Chinese companies its about looking at the numbers and seeing which one has the best P/E ratio (low ones are the ones that I prefer) I like to see their balance sheets and income statements being very steady in growth. I usually look for intangibles and goodwill values and subtract them from the value of the company to see what the tangible book value is.

I regard book value as important but not the most. I usually take this as one piece of the puzzle. These companies if they are just starting out and are trading on the American exchanges then I will take interest in them only if their products are in a market where demand is growing.

I also glance at the website of the company and try and dig through their investor relations materials to see if all the data is lining up. Here are a few of my favored Chinese stocks that I am currently holding positions in. BEST SYNM NEP TRIT CHBT, and EDS.

Meanwhile you need to be doing research on the economy on a macro perspective. This will enable you to be able to think clearly about where things are and to have good perspective on the economy in general.

Another way to find good Chinese companies is to see what companies here have been successful here in the states, and to see who is doing a similar thing in China and research their fundamentals to see whether it has a good brand, management and numbers.

That is all for today but it is def exciting to see people doing well in the market as long as they have an idea of what they are doing. We teach a course for beginners and those who have some experience please check out our awesome stock alerts for free for 3 days. Also many of you out there are to lazy to do the research and trade. SO WE DO IT FOR YOU!!!!

Enjoy your weekend!

Until next time;

HAPPY TRADING!

How will the 50:1 split on Berkshire Hathaway effect the current shares? Our new course is also available!

As everyone knows by now Buffet has bought BNI Burlington Northern Santa train company for shares of BRK-B. These are the common stock of Berkshire Hathaways Stock that are going to be splitting 50:1 so if you bought 2 shares right now at a price of $3330 each, after the split you would get 100 shares at about $65.

This will, in my belief effect the stock in a positive way allowing more investors to purchase the shares. the price at $3000 is a bit to much for the common investor, but at $65 it may get bought up a lot easier. The downside is that this will bring in the less intelligent investors and bring more volatility to the equity.

We are thinking about getting in and may be doing some research on this company and releasing so please watch for our updates.

The Most Research I Have Ever Done To Make You Money!!!

Greetings,

Tonight I spent hours researching, and drawing trendlines all over charts, its getting crazy in my den!!!

GNW I found that major support is at $7.00- $7.20 BUT on the 55 minute interval chart used on ameritrade’s strategy desk charts, it seems to be in a channel heading down, and it is at the bottom bollinger band/channel and the $9.40-$9.50 range. Today we saw it go as low as $9.17 and if this level holds here it may turn upwards for a nice swing to the upside with resistance at $10.55 IF IT FAILS I could see it going as low as $7.50 -$8 IF it heads to this level at $7and $8 and fails this $9 it could be a good short to those levels… However if you choose to go long at those lower levels, scale in at $7.20 with a third of your position and at $7.00 for another third etc…See the chart example attached for a more clear picture of the trendlines that are drawn.

MIC I found that major support is at $7.00 – $7.20 level BUT on the 55 minute chart it also is in a channel heading down but has had 6 consecutive down days ie 6 red candles. IF it hold this level at 8 and the moving averages start flattening out then this $8.00 mark could be a good place to get in, however if it fails 8 and cannot surmount the $8.40’s tomorrow then we could see $7 and $7.20 at this level you would also want to scale into the position. This trade could make for a great swing trade from those prices! See chart example and how there is no resistance between $8 and $7…

APL also has good support at the $7 range BUT I would like to see AND you prolly will see $6.80 – $6.86 which would be a great trade for the short term.

PCX is really tough to determine where it will go next…

BAC seems to be at support on the 55 minute chart and if it holds here could be a GREAT buy, BUT BUT BUT be very cautious as the next level of support is in the $13.50’s and maybe lower price range, and if this is the case, would make an AMAZING Short if it breaks here below $15 or you could buy the put options on it if it cracks below $15 and make a nice profit. See chart for more clarity two charts are included with BAC a 55 minute chart to see the Stock trying to turn and a daily chart extending back to the march lows where you can easily the support lines drawn out.

LNC If this fails this level here at 23.50 there is really no resistance until 20

HIG If this fails this level here at the $24 there is also hardly any resistance until the $18’s BOTH LNC and HIG could be great shorts if they crack these levels of support!!!

If you want the full charts then please subscribe to our stock alerts and you will receive emails like this quite often!!!

Thanks!

Until next time;

HAPPY TRADING!

Everything is on the bottom bollinger bands of the daily charts!

This market has accelerated to the downside as stocks continue their slide today. The market started to sell off individuals stocks which eventually pulled down the whole market. Finally the market is seeing a pull back to different levels after months of rallying up over 60% from the lows. We kept our eyes on several things today but the ones that really made us money were the stocks that were strong while the market was weak. AMZN, BCRX, FXP, and YRCW all were strong today as the market tanked, so in that weakness the traders all piled into the strength in those specific stocks.

We had an entry on AMZN this morning at $118.94 and we sold it to quickly as it went up 6 more dollars from the spot that we had entered. Also we made some money on BCRX and its associated strength on some good news about the FDA approving their swine flu drugs. YRCW caught our attention as it made new highs at 3.42 early on, and soared to $4 dollars, we missed that trade, but heard that alot of traders piled in and the shorts got squeezed so the stock moved up. http://stocktwits.com/streams/all This is a great website for seeing what some of the most active traders are doing in the markets for the day. YRCW rallied on good news talking about improved liquidity in their credit lines.

All in all we have seen the market sell off alot of these individual stocks down to levels that are close or on the bottom bollinger band, which is usually a place to start watching for swing-trade buys. If the 5 day moving averages start to turn upwards then consider entering any stock that meets that criteria that is on our watchlist which is posted on the forum. We hope that you are having profitable trades and if you are losing then consider our course which will walk you through how to have the best execution for your trades!

Until next time;

HAPPY TRADING!

Apple releases a New IMac and Destroys Earnings!

Last night after hours we saw AAPL beat earnings by 47% and saw the stock go from $188.50 ish to $204 in just a few minutes. We bought 100 shares and a dollar later we sold as we traded in and out of it. This is what we like to call an earnings play, and even today we pumped a few hundred dollars out of the stock as it continues to hit our buy indications and sell indications.

Our subscribers made another few thousand dollars today on a GNW stock alert this morning at 10 am.

They have a really cool I Mac that came out check out their new video

One funny thing about AAPL is that they are so cash heavy they could crush you with their wallets and that is definitely a reason to like the company!

This company is keeping their products in the spot light and and as long as they do that and continue to release new ones and be innovative this stock could really see $235 in the near term. They have come such a long way as a company but like anybody else they have their up and down cycles. Everybody knows that AAPL is going alot higher therefore its resilience in a down market like today.

On days like this individual stocks have been pulling back and getting nice retracements and may go lower before there is another ideal time to get in.

Until next time;

HAPPY TRADING!

Here is an entertaining video about how bikers can maneuver their bikes on brick walls and up and down rails and it is called biketrials. I used to ride all the time in this fashion, and that disciplined life allowed me to learn several things that would enable me to be successful at trading. Trading takes great discipline…so watch this video and imagine how much discipline went into practicing to become this good at riding a bike. The more you practice the better you become.

We will see you bright and early for some amazing trading opportunities in the market each and every day.

Broke The New American Dream; Great Movie!

Guys please check out this movie, it matches almost exactly the way we here at C-Squared Trading like to think. Andy my partner has been bearish on the market since 1983 and I since being born in 1983 feel the same way since 2004. How can we keep adding debt to the governments balance sheet without any accountability. Jim Rogers in the movie points out that this will someday back and bite us hard.

PS Our Subscibers only pulled in about $2000 today but good job!

This movie really educates you on how to think about the markets and taking losses. Your first loss is your best loss. There is such a clear message being sent to us that if we buy something and hold long enough it will give us some good returns, but that is not true. If you bought in 1999 you would be break even, if you had sold and taken profits and bought back in March then you would be up almost 65 percent. Take your profits here with the market up huge, and start looking for other good places to invest over the next few years, and wait for another awesome buying opportunity.

We created a streamer-watch-list with these stocks, which were all up 30% or more, last week. — so we should watch them for quick drops to the lower bollinger bands (or even lower than that).

We have them sorted by descending average volume — so the ones near the top of the list are the most likely to fit the bill:

QQQQ SPY DIA XLF SMH ACOR HW CNOA ASTC ROIAK EGMI ROYL USEG JOEZ SBGI JADE SBSA CHIO EMMS OPTT VRMLQ TA ZIOP CHCG

Penny stocks such as the ones we trade have huge potential to move either way and if you play where the odds are in your favor then you will continue to reap profits over and over from the market. We are here to teach you exactly what this movie is preaching and how to trade! What we want is for you to have our mindset and through our materials you will be able to join us on this profitable journey. Are you to lazy to read 100 pages of material and spend a few hours of your life learning? Please email us if you have any questions about certain stocks or want to make some money trading. support@csquaredtrading.com

Until next time;

HAPPY TRADING!
