There’s a big difference between income and wealth. Income can be considered the amount of money an individual earns on a consistent basis. For most individuals, this is a paycheck. Wealth can be considered an individual’s net worth, or, more specifically, how much income their wealth generates and how long they can sustain a given lifestyle without having to receive a conventional paycheck.

While a high income may help to build wealth fast...

After trampling over and, ultimately, destroying the bears the entire year, the bulls at least had the common decency to bury the body… only to follow up moments later by *rinating all over the fresh gravesite: Yes, the ES has leaped over its triangle pattern in yet another breakout. As I’m typing this, it’s up over 8 points, and we can expect plenty of end-of-year weirdness in trading today (particularly during the final minutes). The NQ hasn’t executed the same breakout (yet), but it wouldn’t take much to do so: Let’s just said summarizing 2017 can be done with a single photo:...

Written by marcuss The “smart money” is finally entering the crypto space… And that means we’re about to see massive sums of money flow into the sector. geralt / Pixabay Let me explain… Why the smart money has mostly stayed away from cryptos – so far As we’ve written before, in the world of investing, “smart money” refers to professional investors who have more and better information than the general investing public. This includes hedge funds, large institutional investors and wealthy private investors. They have teams of analysts who do nothing but look for the best stocks and markets to buy. Smart money tends to be t...

USD/JPY The US dollar broke down significantly during the trading session on Thursday, slicing below the 113 level. We did bounce a bit though, and I think that if we can break above the 113 handle, the market may continue to go bit higher. However, if we were to break down below the bottom of the candle for the session on Thursday, I think we could probably drop towards the 112 level. With a lack of volume in the marketplace, it’s likely that we will see a bit of choppiness. At this point though, I am much more comfortable buying this market on a break to the upside, but more than likely will only do so after New Year’s Day, as the volum...
