FuturesTechs Blog

We are pleased to announce that our ipad/iphone App is now available to download from the App Store (simply search for “Futurestechs”).

We would like to invite you (client or otherwise) to download the App.

We are running a 2 week Free Trial Period when you can look at all the reports (After that access will be limited to 1 “sample” report per day).

We would ask that you pass this e-mail on to any friends or colleagues who you think may be interested.

Also any reviews of the App would be most helpful and appreciated, so if you like it please take the time to add a review to the App store.

As you can see from the screen grabs below (click on them for a full size view) the reports look really good on the ipad and, thanks to our friends at wordflow, navigating around the App and finding the reports you want is really easy.

Anyone who decides to subscribe will also be given free access to our Website Member’s Area (in case the kids are hogging the ipad!!) where all the reports are also posted daily.

Cheers,

Clive.

In Brief: All I keep hearing at the moment is how we will have a 10% correction, so, let’s have a look:

The “funnymentalist” community, particularly Stateside, seem pretty happy with the idea that this pullback will be a “normal” affair and will pull back 10% from the January highs, at which point you can happily pile in, buy the dip, and carry on where we left off…

I thought it would be useful to know where this level is on the markets we watch. So here goes, and we’re looking at the Cash Indexes here, NOT the Futures:

Dow: High was 10730. 10% pullback level is 9657 (currently 10023)

S&P 500: High was 1150, pullback level is 1035 (at 1065 right now)

NASDAQ: High was 1897, pullback level is 1707 (1743 now)

DAX: 6094 was the January high, 10% off that is 5485.  BROKEN

FTSE: 5600 high, 5040 is 10% pullback. 5033 was last week’s low, so holding…

Eurostoxx: Pulled back from 3044. 10% back from here is 2740. BROKEN

CAC: high was 4088, so 10% back from there is 3680, BROKEN.

So to summarise,  if anyone stateside says to you about 10% pullbacks the simple thing to say is “thanks, but we’re already beyond that!”… especially if/when the FTSE breaks 5030-40.

Keep safe in these markets.

Other Company News:

On April 6th we celebrate our 10th birthday. We started life writing reports on the Bund, Bobl, T-Notes and 30 Year Bonds, and have since expanded to cover 28 markets in all (and counting!), covering Equities, Commodities and Foreign Exchange.

Our client base has morphed from a hard core of ex-LIFFE traders to a wide range of users, from Prop traders to Brokers, End Users and Fund Managers.

Last year we added Individual UK Equities (FTSE 350) to our product range, catering to CFD Brokers and Fund Management/trading groups. We send out structured buy/sell recommendations, and are working hard to add to the distribution channels for this, as more and more institutions show an interest in this product.

2010 is already shaping up to be a big year for FuturesTechs as we continue to widen our readership by providing a reliable, timely, easy to read, innovative and trusted service. We recently asked our clients for feedback on the services we provide. Below are a few replies we received:

“I believe you are a market leader in technical analysis and reporting” - PW  - Ireland

“When trading the FTSE , FuturesTechs provides key technical levels that count whichever way the market is moving. At the click of a mouse , the analysis is delivered in an easy to read format and is part of a robust and reliable service which is spot on” - RH - East Sussex

“I don’t trade unless I have my FuturesTechs levels on my desk” - JB - Dublin

“As a company we use FuturesTechs for both daily technical analysis and charting seminars. On both counts they have been professional, dependable and efficient. The daily reports are easy to read and always on time, and should intra-day markets exceed the levels stated in the reports, they will always send out an update with added commentary. The charting seminars provided by Clive are tailored to the needs of the group and are comprehensive in their content. Clive is friendly and approachable and always very thorough. We are very happy with the services provided by FuturesTechs, and we would thoroughly recommend using them” - HT - London.

We (mostly!!) thank our clients for their continued support.
