Wednesday TrendLeaders and Swing Signals, April 22, 2009

I wanted to generate a new list of TrendLeaders today and while I was at it I also produced a new batch of Swing Trading Signals. They are all available now and can be found at the TrendLeaders page and the Swing Signals page, respectively.

The market has been pretty erratic so far this week but there are still 824 stocks and ETFs that qualify as TrendLeaders. As of the close of trading today they are all above their 50-day moving average and registering strong trends according to Aroon, MACD and DMI analysis.

I notice there are quite a few PowerShares ETFs on the list today as well as some ETFs I have never heard of: the First Trust Alphadex funds. Something to look into...

We also have a new batch of Swing Trading Signals. Just like yesterday, we have 38 signals in total. Today they are split down the middle: 19 are BUYS and 19 are SELLS.

Please check out our latest stock market data at the TrendLeaders page and the Swing Signals page. You will also be able to download the data in a CSV format file that can be opened in Excel. Of course, it's all still free.

Export diversification, spurred by a more active trade policy and increased focus on "south-south" trade under current president Lula, helped mitigate the decline in demand from OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries A "sensible" economic framework has been in place since the 1990's. This has included inflation

Unlock Stock Market Profits - Key #1

This is the first in an ongoing series of articles where I discuss what I feel are keys to successful investing. It is based on a post that provides a summary of the ten keys that individual investors should use to identify profitable stock trades. ( Click here to read the original post ) There are two basic steps to investing. First, you need to find stocks that seem to have some potential. Then you have to determine whether these stocks are actually good investments. There are many stocks that at first glance look interesting, but further research reveals that there are too many negatives to warrant taking a position. This first post in the series starts at the beginning: getting good investment ideas. Key #1: If something special is happening to a stock, it will be reflected in some kind of unusual activity in the markets.
