New Forum Idea... Intermarket Analysis?

Recommended Posts

What do you guys think about opening up a new forum dedicated for Intermarket Analysis? Basically dicuss various correlations in global markets whether it be stocks, commodities, futures, etc...

 

Like how the semiconductors act in the US tends to affect the semi sector in Taiwan.. or how the Asian markets tend to rely on the US, etc...

 

Index futures vs bonds, currency vs gold, etc...

 

You think it will be active?

It's something that interests me. I keep an eye on global stock index futures, oil, currency and interest rate futures and it's easy to see how markets often react together. I doubt there would be much activity in the forum though because most posters here are pure chartists. Maybe a single thread in one of the existing forums would be better?

That would be an idea also... but I want to get traders to become more aware of the impact on global markets. Its definitely something more experienced traders will be informed about. New traders tend to get too caught up in whats happening in their market only and tend to dig for opportunities forcefully leading to poor setups and overtrading. It might be a good idea to get traders to expand their view of the markets and not limit themselves to trading just one particular area. The only reason I say this is because not until recently... I did not expand into various markets. But now that I am keeping an eye on various markets, my view of trading has changed tremendously. I'll wait and see if we can get more interest. Fixed income, interest rate futures, etc... is definitely not my area of expertise so would love to read about them.

I'd be an watchful observer of the forum area if it was active. I am one of those 'chartists' that notouch referenced so I don't use or pay attention to anything other than my ES chart. It would be interesting to read about global economics though, esp since we have a global trading population here. Someone is going to have to take the lead to get the interest going though in my opinion.

I read a quote on ET that said - "If you don't understand the global economy you don't understand the economy"

 

The way everything is going I think this is very true, we can't pay attention to only the US anymore. So I think a forum dedicated to stuff like that would be extremely beneficial, especially in the coming years. Also, if you can find strong correlations that no one else sees that could give you a huge edge.

 

In the book Pit Bull Marty talks about the correlation he found between I believe T-Bills and the ES, and he made a killing on it.

Its a good idea if ppl have the time to keep updating it. Here in Aus I always see a very large correlation between our stock markets and commodity prices especially metals such as nickel, copper, gold, and zinc.

I think this would be an interesting idea.

Does anyone know of a free correlation matrix for major asset classes? I know I have checked one out before but I don't recall if it was online or if it was in Murphy's Intermarket book.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
