Low Risk Option Trading System

By Donald Scott

ICING ON THE CAKE? I have believed in my option strategies for years. I've seen many others, and I know how safe mine are compared to others. However, recently I made another break through which has moved my option trading to a new level. Trading conservative option strategies to begin with and now with risk-free insurance makes me feel a bit giddy inside.

RECENT DISCOVERIES Recently, I've developed a Self-Adjusting trading system which in a few words is "Simply Amazing!" What I've done is discovered a way to trade with nearly Risk-Free Insurance. What this means is that the insurance I use to protect my trades virtually risks nothing if I do not use it. In a normal situation, insurance strategies lose money each month and eat up the profits, but I've designed a way around this problem!

IRON CONDORS WITH Risk-Free INSURANCE One common way that I use this trading system is with the famous Iron Condor. Historically, the Iron Condor cannot handle a market that is moving in a whip-saw pattern. But now I can enjoy the slow-moving Iron Condor in a volatile market by simply using my new insurance plan. I have developed a way to insure the Iron Condor if the market moves up or down with an adjustment strategy that has been until now, virtually undiscovered.

TRADING RESULTS I have just started using this strategy, and this first month might just turn out to be a big winner. If the market makes just a small move to the downside over the next week, I am looking at a 50% possible gainer, and best of all, my trade is risk-free. It's hard to explain, but if I could show you the risk graph, then you would understand. I am extremely excited to introduce this trading system to my personal portfolio. I am already putting it to use, and I love the new dimension it brings to the Iron Condor as a monthly income strategy.

To conclude I would just like to say that I am always inventing safer option strategies to manage my options portfolio, and one thing I really love about options is that they allow me to be creative. I truly believe that I have developed some of the safest strategies that exist anywhere in the world, and my new trading system puts my trading skills far and above the competition. - 23162

Growth Stocks Investment

By Ahmad Hassam

When we talk of the capitalization of a company what do we mean by it? Capitalization or cap refers to the combined value of all the share of a company's stocks. The division between large cap, mid cap and small cap are often blurry and not sharp. When you start looking for good stocks, you often come across these terms like large cap, mid cap, small cap, growth and value. Let's discuss these terms for a moment.

Mid caps are companies with $1 to $5 Billion in capitalization and small caps are companies with $250 million to $1 Billion in capitalization. Anything below $250 million can be considered as micro cap. However the following divisions are generally accepted: Large caps are companies with over $5 Billion in capitalization.

What is the P/E ratio? The P/E ratio divides the price of the stock by the earnings per share. Suppose, company ABC stock is presently selling for $50. Now suppose that last year company ABC earned $5 for every share of the stock outstanding. This means stock ABC P/E ratio is 50/5=10. So the higher the P/E ratio, the more investors are willing to pay for the stock.

Now the higher the P/E ratio, the more growth the company is supposed to have. So it can be either the company is growing real fast of the investor have high hopes of its growth. Now these hopes can be realistic or foolish, you never know!

Growth companies are usually adolescent companies usually in sectors like computers, technology, telecom while value companies are mature companies usually in sectors like insurance, banking, manufacturing. Now, if you follow financial news than you must know that the large growth companies always grab the headlines. But do the growth stocks really make best investment? The lower the P/E ratio, the more value the company has. Low P/E ratio companies are not considered to be the movers and shakers in the market. Is there any statistical study that can guide us as to the performance of these different categories of stocks? Eugene Fama did seminal research on stocks and stock market s in'70s. Most of his results were startling and broke many myths. According to Fama and French, two famous researchers who did ground breaking research on stocks, over the last 77 years, large growth stocks have only seen 9.9% annualized rate of return as compared to 11.5% for the large value stocks.

Now intuitively you might have thought that growth stocks are better. What can be the reason for their lower performance over the years? The most probable cause seems to be their immense popularity. Since most of the headlines are captures by high growth companies, investors seem to think that they are the best investments.

So large growth stocks tend to get overpriced before you are able to buy them! Think about Google, how its stock price shot up within a matter of weeks after it hit the market. Weeks after that it began to cool off. - 23162

Singapore To Keep Properties Market Under Control Some Possible Measures

By Billy Chen

With the local economy continues to work itself out of the shadow of financial downturn and H1N1 flu, the Singapore property market has been doing brisk business.The business is so great that government has turned cautious on the sustenance of the current phenomena. Past two years has seen a flurry of buying activities and bullish developers have been assaulting our senses with their incessant advertisements on a daily basis, all hawking for our attention on their properties.

There is no doubt that the experience of the mid-nineties 'boom and bust cycle is still fresh in the administration' s mind. To move with our experience, that the government is ready all the stops to ensure it would not be repeated in the near future.

Among them are land supply decision, money supply tightening and tax policies. We are about to tell you how this individual measure works and how effective it can put the overheated market under control. There are actually a few tools at Singapore government's disposal to better handle any similar incident.

Land Offer decision - the government is the largest owner of land on the island and if they decide to reduce supply for the development of the country, will have a direct impact on the real estate market. Developers should have no place to minimize the construction of its luxury real estate and according to the new market. As a result, speculation of new apartments would be reduced drastically.

The maximum allowed loan quantum is 90 percent of property value.Credit Tightening - A popular rumor is making rounds in the property sector that a comprehensive review of the credit market is underway. When government does decide to bring this down to 80 percent, or even lower, the whole market would be hit hard.

Capital Gains Tax - This is a tax derived from the profit obtained from the sales of property.If this is brought back into the fray, it is expected demand would be slowed down significantly and will be effective to discourage speculation as profit would be reduced. Government introduced capital gains tax at the height of nineties property boom but has since abolished it.When this taxation is applied, it will treat profit as income and subject to the prevailing tax rate at either individual or corporate level.

Property Tax - Another effective way to deal with an overheating market is to raise the property tax.Again based on reduced profit psychology, speculative activities could be significantly reduced due to the perceived small profit.

Double Stamp Duty - changes in legislation may require the buyer and the seller pay stamp duty. Currently, the stamp tax applies only to the buyer. When operating on both sides, it is hoped that the vendors were speculators / sell restrained free / commercial space.

These are just some of the measures that government can use in its attempt to put the property market under control. But it is still early to tell if the current property interest is genuine and thus sustainable or if really another bubble in the making. - 23162

Understanding Good ETF Trading Strategies

By Patrick Deaton

Today, exchange traded funds or ETFs make for a great investment vehicle that hold out the possibility of a good income for those traitors willing to take the time to learn how to make exchange traded funds really work. Understanding good ETF trading strategies, though, is probably one of the first things to learn after gaining an understanding of the basics of what ETFs are.

Exchange traded funds have a lot of things going for them. Their costs are low and their tax efficiencies are very high. They are constituted somewhat like mutual funds in how they are operated by a fund manager. Normally, and ETF limits membership to authorized participants such as large institutional investors can buy large blocks of assets. Small investors usually use in ETF trading system.

Imagine corporate stocks and how they are traded or bought and sold and you will have a good idea of how exchange traded funds are also moved through the markets. Almost every exchange traded fund establishes its operations so that it can track one or several of the major market indexes. For example, many track the S&P 500. This makes it easier to follow trends and set up trading strategies.

There are more strategies out there that can probably be counted, though they usually fall into a couple of major categories; fundamental and technical. For those with the savvy, or patience, to sit down and learn technical strategies, the rewards can be quite lucrative. Most traders using technical indices believe they can discern patterns or shapes in a stock chart, basically.

Being able to discern these patterns or shapes in a stock chart (basically up-and-down movements of the stock over a defined period of time) can give a signal of the possibility of profitable trading opportunities which might exist. Many traders claim that they can make consistent profits from trading using technical analysis in this manner.

One of the most common of technical strategies that exists today is to utilize what professional and amateur traders call the "moving average cross." With it, traders look at short-term movements in the market -- or a stock or fund -- and then overlay that short-term movement on a long-term trendline. Usually, most short-term movements are from-- to 25 days in duration to create a moving average line.

After that moving average line has been created, most traders will superimpose that over an analysis of the short-term movements in an attempt to discern the actual movement the price of the stock or stock held in the ETF will take once it crosses the moving average line. Long-term trendline analysis, which is the second element, takes a 50 day moving average, which can damp the short-term trend.

In this manner, ETF traders can look at the long-term trends and create a moving support line. Usually, traders using this technical strategy will look at purchasing a stock as it begins its upward movement or once it goes back up after it has touched or slightly penetrated the 50 day moving average. Opposite, a trader could sell the stock short. Either way can work effectively. - 23162
