Stock Market Masters

Archive for May, 2009

Research In Motion (RIMM) and APPLE (APPL), both tech titans, are battling for the smartphone market share. Although Research In Motion, creator of the BlackBerry, is a well established tech giant they may have hit a wall with Apple, Inc.’s launch of the phenomenally popular iPhone.

This tech battle may create a lower risk to trade these markets. During their latest rally, RIMM did not perform well, nor were the changes in price as exuberant as the shares for APPLE.

We am looking for the general market to show weakness through the next week. With that said, we expect to see RIMM slide faster than APPL. It may be conservative trading strategy to buy Apple
and short Research In Motion. Take an equal amount of money for each market and buy a corresponding number of shares to balance the positions and decrease risk.

This is what we call “pair trading”. You are looking for the percentage change in the market between RIMM and APPL to move in Apple’s favor no matter which direction either one head.

In this new short video, you will learn why we came up with this strategy and why it may offer a low-risk trade in the current market environment.

It is time to take another look at the S&P 500.

The SP 500 index is caught between two trend lines that are the dominant technical indicators right now for this market. If either gives way, it will point the direction of the next major swing.

In addition to the two trend lines that we graphically illustrate in this short video, we also show you two other tech indicators that flashed important signals on Tuesday.
