DID YOU KNOW: There is one must-know formula to keep your portfolio in the positive
It may seem obvious that if you take a 5% loss, you'll need just over 5% return to recover your portfolio. But as you lose more, you'll need to recover exponentially more than the actual percentage lost. Traders call this series of consecutive losses – the drawdown. Many traders just don’t think about what they’ll need to recover during a losing period. ... ››› more

It's resources time to shine while the rand continues its slump
In early July this year, I announced the demise of the South African rand. At that time, the currency was trading at R13.00 per US Dollar. With the economy shrinking 0.7%, the petrol price jumping to R17.00 per liter and added pressure to emerging currencies led by the Turkish Lira and Argentina Peso, the rand has been hit hard. Today it will cost you R14.40 for j... ››› more

Why Japan could be the reason we bank huge profits in October
It is every trader's goal to be able to accurately predict where markets are heading. And it's been my mission this year to find a reliable indicator that can predict where the JSE ALSI Top 40 is headed. After plotting a whole bunch of indicators, relative strength oscillators and indices, I think I've done it. And it's all thanks to Japan. Today I'll discuss this predictor, wh... ››› more

Can you really make money with a 20% win rate?
For the past 16 years I've followed a strategy that's yielded a 60% win/rate on average. This means every 10 trades I take, I can expect to bank 6 winners. This year, it's been different. In fact, it's been one of the most difficult years to profit from the JSE as the market has remained inside a tight sideways range. Last week, it got to the point where I started to worry about m... ››› more

Shoprite's mayhem! - Why I expect the share price to drop another 37%
For the first time in 19 years, Africa's biggest grocer (Shoprite) reported its first annual earnings decline. With the Listeria outbreak, the higher fuel prices, the increased VAT, the ongoing strikes, 489 armed robberies and the ever-weakening rand this decline was inevitable. Even Chief Executive Pieter Engelbrecht mentioned “the toughest (year) that I can recall”. In term... ››› more

Finally! This index is set to rocket to new highs
For the last four years, this index has been sitting in my “TBTT” (Too Boring To Trade) list. It's done absolutely nothing but consolidate in a sideways trend since 2014. Until last month… where it broke out of its chains and started an entirely new trend - up! This is now one index that's no longer too boring to trade- I see some significant profit opportunities lining up. ... ››› more

How to trade the JSE's sideways market

For a trader, we call this a sideways market and this is the perfect picture. Above is the daily JSE All Share Top 40 Index chart since January 2018! Anyone... ››› more

Why averaging down is the WORST trading strategy
Whenever I hear a trader uses the averaging down strategy, I cringe. Averaging down for a trader means they'll buy more shares at a lower cost to drop the average price per share in the belief that ‘when' the share price rises they'll make more money. The problem with this is when the share price keeps on falling, the trader stands to make a much bigger loss if it keeps moving against h... ››› more

Once a year this stock gives away a ‘Free-money' opportunity - Don't miss it
Once a year I see, what I call, a free-money opportunity. I’ve seen three of these ’Free money’ trades, since 2016. The first ‘free-money’ trade came in 2016. You could have bought the stock at R61.18 on 25 January 2016 and closed it at R70.00 on the 16th of May for a 144% return. Then came 2017, where the same stock brought about the same ‘Free-mone... ››› more
