04-23-08 Yen Continues Upward March
As we have pointed out in the past, we love to buy issues that have openings below their
moving average trend indicators. As the maroon line, the T8, continued to move up in the Yen, Monday gave us an additional opportunity to purchase below this supporting indicator.
The T8 (maroon line), our moving average that defines trend, has been in a postive posture since last summer. This weekly strategy has prompted us to buy on seven different Monday mornings. This relaxed approach to the market can be applied to all major futures markets.
***Volatility Alert:
During the third week in July, volatility returned to the major stock indices. For approximately four years, the markets have had low to very low volatility. This significant change has ushered in swings of 100, 200 & 300+ points, sometimes on a day-to-day basis. Stock indices tend to be either volatile, or not, for three to five years at a time. Expect continued volatility. The current volatility cycle has just started its volatile period. We feel this is the early stages of volatility and we continue to believe it is here to stay.
