ChartPros Market Insights

We frequently get asked about various funded trading programs and we've reviewed plenty of them but historically never participated in or recommended any of them.

Until recently.

Trading is not easy, but can be life changing.

We seldom meet a trader who isn't passionate about generating supplemental income, or even better, someone who desires to quit their day job to become a full time trader.

But many find that can be easy to say but hard to do.

You're invited to join ChartPros Founder Tom Winterstein for a dynamic and fascinating presentation hosted by NinjaTrader as he covered the "magic" behind Fibonacci retracements and extensions. 

This was the first time Tom made this presentation since publishing his FREE Fib Guide so you won't want to miss it!

Traditionally, many people make New Year's resolutions. Some promise themselves that they'll eat better, lose weight, behave nicer, stop bad habits, start new habits... You've probably been there done that.

But what about your trading? Have you made resolutions before? Like have more discipline? More patience? Stop chasing trades? Some may even consider quitting trading altogether?  

See what our New Year resolutions are...

It's no secret that the Wall St. bulls have been large and in charge the past several weeks.  With two key news events upcoming this week can the trend continue?

Inflation related news is slated for Tuesday 8:30am eastern and the FOMC statement announcing whether interest rates will go up, down, or remain the same is set for Wednesday at 2pm eastern.

As the year draws to a close, investors' eyes start sparkling with anticipation for a phenomenon known as the "Santa Claus Rally". This is a compelling, historical market pattern that seems to bring the gift of favorable returns to the stock market.

But is it a reliable trend and did Santa come early this year?

Let's unwrap this intriguing concept, its potential causes, and its correlation with interest rates.

When I was in MBA school back in the late 1980s (yeah that's me back then long before gray hair) it was drilled into me that a company’s stock price was always tied to its financial statements. You know, Profit and Loss statements, Balance Sheets, etc and all that fancy financial lingo. 

And so I went through much of my early adult life not really ever knowing otherwise. But along the way I had heard of this “technical analysis” stuff but considered it something like voodoo or witchcraft because as far as I knew it had absolutely nothing to do with the fundamentals of a company’s financial performance.

Last week 75 Traders just like you were awarded "Pay It Forward" Scholarships valued at $1.5M for the month of September so check your email for a trader education award notification if you applied!

So often I get asked "Tom, where do you think the market is heading?"

I start by saying the better question is "where could the market be heading?"

Because what I think doesn't matter to price action and no one knows with any certainty where the markets are heading. 

I don't make predictions, I don't call tops/bottoms however, I may react to price when it reaches a predetermined level of interest by trading or investing in that particular index, equity, commodity, Forex, etc.

Let's take the S&P 500 for example using it's futures ticker /ES...
