The trade Gold: Thurs. Mar. 7. Potential gain $460 This was a slim week for profitable trades using Nat’s inflection points. There were a series of calls that narrowly missed being filled, which would have resulted in seriously profitable trades. Full Access members who were monitoring the market in real time were able to tweak their calls to catch some of those move. But most of the members using resting orders, placed in advance, missed out. One exception was this trade in gold on Thursday. The market dropped on a … Continue reading

The trade ES: Mon. Feb. 25. Potential gain $675 This wasn’t the most profitable trade this week (see below for the the trade that was) but was the easiest to execute, returned a decent profit with very little effort, and was available to every member, including people signed up for the Really Cheap Membership at a whopping monthly cost of $19.

The reason is not difficult to understand; the intraday volatility of oil futures has increased sharply in the past couple of months, and greater intraday price swings mean more trading opportunities and larger moves. This trade is fairly typical of what has been happening in the oil markets. The price dropped in overnight trading, reached an extreme shortly after the open — which is where Nat places her entries … Continue reading
The trade Gold: $590 Feb. 4 The best trading opportunities so far in 2019 have been in oil futures. Last week was no exception, and Nat’s oil trades returned a potential profit of $560 for the week, despite being stopped out (by five cents) on Thursday.

Nat’s inflection points are designed to indicate significant changes in market behaviour, most frequently the point where the market changes short-term direction. That’s precisely what happened with this call. … Continue reading
