As part of the master class "Be a Trader with iLearney" The less time remains until the end of the current year, the more talk that the world economy has a sad future ahead of it. And the "fiscal cliff" that the United States is on the brink of is to blame. On the way to the "fiscal cliff" This term was coined a few years ago, when the "Bush tax vacations", introduced in 2001 and 2003 and implying the use of a number of tax benefits, expired. And while they were extended in 2010, it will be considerably more difficult to do so now due to heightened political controversies within the country. The "fiscal cliff", the sword of Damocles hanging over the...

As a rule, when describing trading strategies, attention is paid to three main elements: determining entry and exit points and the level at which a protective stop order should be placed. At the same time, traders completely forget about such an important element of any trading system as the methodology of managing a previously opened position. Passive and active trading tactics for managing an open position If the market goes against us, then everything is simple: we should wait for the order to be triggered, which will close the position automatically. But what to do if the quotes move exactly in the direction we expected? "Should we move protective stop orders ...

Мы продолжаем наш цикл статей о правилах работы с CFD-контрактами, их преимуществах и недостатках. И сегодня я постараюсь рассказать вам об основных принципах торговли контрактами на разницу цен. Как вы помните, CFD – это инструмент маржинальной торговли, и с его помощью можно зарабатывать при изменении цены базового актива. Такими активами могут выступать и валюты, и акции, и фьючерсы, и облигации. Торговую площадку спекулянт выбирает на свое усмотрение. Одним из основных преимуществ торговли CFD является кредитное плечо. Благодаря ему трейдер с небольшим размером депозита получает возможность совершать рыночные позиции значительного объема и получать серьезную прибыль даже при незначительных флуктуациях цен рыночных…

We continue the series of articles devoted to Gartley harmonic patterns on the market. Today we will consider the conditions of formation and principles of using the AB=CD harmonic pattern in trading. How the AB=CD harmonic pattern is formed Equal price ratios, which are expressed through Fibonacci ratios, form one of the most interesting harmonic patterns - the AB=CD pattern, which, in fact, is the main component of all other patterns. On the one hand, such a harmonic pattern will be a correction (if we look from the point of view of the Elliott Wave Theory), on the other hand, such a pattern, in most cases, is a reversal pattern. Types of AB=CD harmonic pattern The AB=CD pattern is divided into 2 types: Harmonic pattern AB=CD with retracement of point C equal to 61.8% and projection BC=161.8%.....

В рамках мастер-класса «Будь трейдером с iLearney» Рост курса единой европейской валюты против доллара США в августе-сентябре текущего года был обусловлен не только решением ФРС запустить очередной раунд количественного смягчения, но и возросшей вероятностью стабилизации долгового рынка еврозоны. История возникновения механизма ESM Ратификация странами-участницами ЕС условий функционирования Европейского механизма стабильности (ESM) по сути положила начало решению основной проблем региона, связанной с неспособностью обслуживания государственных долгов в условиях растущих процентных ставок по облигациям и векселям. Европейский долговой кризис, в основе которого лежит существенный прирост совокупной задолженности стран еврозоны в 2009-2012 гг., больно ударил не только по региону, но и по всей…

Добрый день, дорогие друзья! Мы продолжаем для вас цикл статей, посвященных CFD-контрактам и работе с ними. И строго следуя плану, сегодня мы заглянем в пыльные уголки истории возникновения CFD. CFD-контракты – это относительно новый финансовый инструмент. Первый такой контракт был создан всего два десятилетия тому назад в Лондоне компанией Smith New Court, которая занимается деривативами. С тех пор контракты на разницу цен значительно прогрессировали. Как появился контракт CFD? Причин возникновения такого финансового инструмента несколько: первая это законы, которые значительно ограничивают размер маржинального плеча. Вторым фактором послужило внедрение налога stamp duty (налог на торговые операции с ценными бумагами). Поиски рычагов торговли…

Важный этап фундаментального анализа, это анализ новостей и событий, происходящих в самой компании, акции которой вы рассматриваете для торговли. Этот метод для предсказания будущих цен акций компании можно применять как отдельно, так и в совокупности с двумя другими ранее представленными: анализом макроэкономики и анализом отраслей. Первичное размещение акций и другие факторы Обращайте внимание на сделки слияний, поглощений, IPO, SPO, сплиты. Каждую конкретную ситуацию нужно рассматривать детально. Нужно обдумывать, какая сторона сделки получит наибольшую выгоду. Но традиционно новости, которые ведут деньги в компанию, оказывают благотворное влияние на её акции, а то, что требует оттока финансовых ресурсов, ведет пусть иногда и к…

В рамках мастер-класса «Будь трейдером с iLearney» Эффективные торговые стратегии рождаются только в том случае, когда трейдер разбирается в фазах рыночных колебаний. Использование трендовых стратегий в период консолидации обречено на провал и, наоборот, торговля в пределах выявленных ценовых коридоров невозможна в случае, если участники рынка определились с дальнейшим направлением движения котировок. Фазы рынка На мой взгляд, оптимальным вариантом открытия позиции является вовсе не разворот, правильная идентификация которого способна принести максимальную прибыль; и не устойчивая тенденция, в пределах которой рекомендуется торговать начинающим трейдерам, а момент смены рыночных фаз. В основе данной концепции лежит утверждение о том, что «на рынке нет ничего…

As part of the master class "Be a trader with iLearney" When analyzing the political factors that influence the dynamics of exchange rates on the international Forex market, it is necessary to take into account the close relationship between political decisions and their economic consequences, as well as the fact that behind them are specific people who, as a rule, pursue personal interests. Politics and economics Unlike environmental factors, the influence of which on currency quotes is manifested through fiscal and other spheres of economic life of the country, political drivers of their changes are more multifaceted. Even the apologists of economic science noted that not only politics affects the economy, but also vice versa. The most vivid example of the latter relationship is the presidential election....

Good afternoon, dear colleagues! From today we are starting a series of articles devoted to Gartley harmonic patterns. Probably, all traders, especially experienced ones, have ever heard, used or put into practice this method of market analysis. For those who are just getting acquainted with this tool, I offer a brief excursion into the history and theory of harmonic patterns. What are harmonic patterns? Harmonic patterns were described by stock theorists Harold M. Gartley, Scott M. Carney and Larry Pasavento. But their discoverer was Gartley, who published his work "Profits In The Stock Market" in 1935. In this work, the author mentions a chart pattern that can be confused with the famous Elliott Wave. The similarity...

As part of the master class "Be a Trader with iLearney" Despite the fact that new arrows of criticism are constantly flying at technical analysis, traders continue to use it. Most of them use it thoughtlessly, not paying much attention to the way its methods work. The main thing is that they bring positive financial results! However, there are those who try to understand the nature of financial markets with the help of existing tools. As a result, there are theories of "smart money", based on the study of the behavior of institutional investors with a large amount of information; concepts of fractal analysis, prioritizing the predetermination of market processes existing independently of people's desires and many others. One of such...

Regardless of how you work on the stock market, whether counting on dividend yields or changes in stock prices, fundamental analysis will be your faithful assistant in making trading decisions.

In the master class "Be a trader with iLearney" In fundamental analysis textbooks along with economic factors that influence the dynamics of exchange rates, there are also environmental, political and other factors. Today we will discuss the influence of natural disasters and calamities on the international currency market. Ecological disasters: theory and practice on From the point of view of theory, negative ecological processes negatively influence the national currency. The mechanism of this interaction can be expressed through the following chain: a country affected by a natural disaster requires substantial resources to eliminate its consequences. Since the budget is already balanced, additional loans are needed to raise them. Increased government lending leads to an increase in debt,...

What are index UIFs? Index share UIFs are a type of unit investment funds whose portfolio reflects the composition of various stock indices, i.e. it contains the shares from which the chosen index is composed. According to the Russian legislation, the difference between the share of a security in the index and the portfolio of UIF of index funds of shares must not exceed 3%. Russian funds of this type are mainly oriented on MICEX and RTS indices. Until recently only MICEX was used because RTS did not comply with FFMS (Federal Financial Markets Service) requirements. After RTS became weighted by capitalization and liquidity of shares, there appeared several index mutual funds, which use shares in it for their portfolio....

Using graphical models in their pure form can seem quite risky at first glance, so traders build a system of filters that allow them to select more reliable models. Time and correction dependencies as well as separate indicators are used as such filters. For example, a trader decides to make a deal only if there is a divergence on the MACD along with the "Three Indians" reversal pattern. However, such a system can no longer be attributed to the Price Action methods, which involve trading without indicators. Parent and child patterns As an alternative to the use of calculated indicators as filters, the interaction of patterns can be used. Many of them have a wave structure,...

As part of the master class: "The stock market. A Knowledge Slice." So, we found out that dividends on stocks are good. But the main income for stockbrokers comes from changes in the price of shares. How do you take this profit? The market is always growing Everybody has his own approach. An investor tries to buy shares at a cheaper price and is ready to wait for a long time for a profit, but he will have to suffer many market hardships. The speculator is not ready to put up with the risks of one day or one week, and carries out numerous transactions during the trading session, earning on the rise and fall of the stock. It is worth explaining here that the investor is not technically barred from...
