Bond markets and bullion markets are considered as safe haven for risk averse investors. For risk tolerant investors stock markets and forex markets are supposed to be the places to be in. But when risks in stock markets increase to untenable and unbearable levels, even the risk tolerant investors seek out the safety of bond markets and bullion markets. This action of investors is often described eloquently as "flight to safety".
Now there is disaster lurking around the corner in US bond market in the shape of a bubble burst. Abysmally low interest rate regime coupled with high demand for bond papers has resulted in high price of bond with extremely low yield. Hence investors chasing some decent yield end up buying high-yield-junk bonds. This has caused a bubble like situation in US Bond Market. The last bastion of safety for US investors is on the verge of a collapse. Will there be no place for US investors to hide?
I have no ready answer to offer for US investors. They surely will have some Plan B tucked up their proverbial sleeves. After all they are the most sophisticated and evolved investors on this planet with the deepest pockets. But of late in US stock markets they have been behaving like small school children. Almost everyday some weekly economic data or the other is churned out from various US organisations. And everyday US investors act according to the sentiment of the data. That means if the data is negative they sell off in stock market and vice versa. Hence you have two days of gain and on third day all your gains are erased because that day some weekly data is negative in tone.
It is a sad commentary on the sophistication of supposedly the most evolved financial wizards and savvy investors of the world. Then tell me how are they any different from investors of Banana Republics? Going forward if that is how US stock markets are going to keep behaving, it will not be long before other markets stop looking for direction from US markets. That will be the stepping stone to the oft quoted concept of "Decoupling"

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Patni Computers
On 30 July 2010, my subscribers at www.stockezy.com traded Patni and made Rs 3000/3500. Again today they could make profit in a fresh trade in Patni Computers. Profit booked in this new position today ranged from Rs 3500/- to Rs 6000/-. Yet another trade where my subscribers smartly made reasonable profit from a long position(ie Buy position) in conditions of depressingly negative market sentiments. This again has been possible by calculating the point of bounce with Fibonacci golden ratios. Stock Futures trading done in very simple manner!!
Patni Computer August Futures was recommended by me on 10th August to be bought at 450/452. Target given was 478. However today after 2 trading days I gave a call to book profit at 460. You will appreciate that market conditions were very negative in early trade and so I thought it wise to lock profit, though small. And there I was proven wrong. Patni raced off to make day high of 483.8, even surpassing my initial given target of 478. But I think it is better to be safe in this market than be sorry. My subscribers could make profit, in a falling market, trading stock futures and that is more important. Here is the link to details of actual trading with time stamp : http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7047/buy-patni-aug-futures/ .
With today's concluded trade in Patni, we are still maintaining our tradition of 100% success in our exclusive club of futures trading at Stockezy. This success rate is being maintained for the last 3 months. I wonder how many more successful trades in stock futures are required for retail investors to realize that there is money to be made in trading stock futures in small simple ways!!! Stockezy provides this wonderful opportunity to make good money for a very small subscription amount, and that needs to be tapped by one and all.

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Patni Computers
In stock futures trading one has to be constantly on the look out for exact entry point which is safe as far as downside risk is concerned. And it is also important to choose a trade in the perceived direction of the general market. That means if the general markets are perceived to go up then, choose to enter a buy trade in your selected scrip, and not a sell trade.
One of the most dependable methods to arrive at the exact buy point is the use of Fibonacci golden ratios to calculate the inflexion point in Elliot Waves. Only thing to remember is that calculated buy price is almost always little higher than the low that the scrip actually makes in trade. That is understandable since when it comes to a scrip falling in price, you will find panic buttons being pressed. This drags the actual prices a little lower than the Fibonacci calculated prices. In other words you need to put a little correction to the calculated price, while arriving at your exact buy price.
This little correction to be applied to calculated price was overlooked while entering trade of Patni Computers August Futures. We arrived at our calculated price of 470. So on 29th July I recommended to my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ to buy in the range of 470/473. But actually we should have given a buy in the range of 460/463, after applying due correction. On that day Patni made a low of 459.
Next day we exited trade at 480. In this fashion my subscribers managed to garner profit ranging from Rs 2700/- to Rs 3700/-. That means a return of 6% to 8% on an investment of Rs 47,000/- in two trading sessions. We lost the opportunity to make Rs 2500/- more from this position, simply because we didn't apply the correction to calculated buy price. Anyway, check out the link below for actual trading details as it happened during market hours. Do scroll right down to the end of comments to find Patni trades, since the same page was initially used to trade HCL Tech in a hurry.
