In this episode, Adam Lemon, Huzefa Hamid, and Christopher Lewis talk about what is going in markets now before concluding with what you can do in dull markets to improve your trading and profitability. The guys kick off with a look at the still bullish yet wildly overvalued US stock market before getting into a statistical analysis about whether the December “Santa Claus” rally is still something stock market traders can bet on. Moving on to a more philosophical discussion about why the S&P 500 Index is designed to go up, we then move on to the prospects for the bullish USD trend and the outlook for the Forex majors before getting into why Bitcoin still looks weak. The guys then debate whether its worth a second bite on long Gold/Silver after the recent powerful bullish trend, before ending on what you can do to make yourself a better trader when there’s little or nothing to get busy with in the market.
