Forex Signals for iPad with WSJ and a cup of coffee

We’re proud to announce a new app to our growing suite of finance apps for your mobile devices: Forex Signals for the iPad. This new app provides daily buy and sell trading signals based on a complex mathematical model for 21 foreign exchange rates.

Forex Signals features Trading Signals, Real-Time Charts, and a robust News section.

Trading Signals

Forex Signals examines historical data of exchange rates against the USD and constructs correlation/dispersion and volatility maps. A complex computerized mathematical model continuously checks prices and compares them to these maps by using various algorithms. If the price of an f/x rate falls below its character map, it generates a buy signal. If on the other hand the price goes above its character map, the tool generates a sell signal. As these anomalies occur, trading and significant profit opportunities arise. Forex Signals will help you capitalize on these opportunities.

Real-Time Charts

No f/x analysis tool would be complete without proper charts and only you know what information you want to see in a specific chart. Our charts are fast, full page charts, with swipe functionality that allow you to customize for intraday, daily, weekly and monthly time frames, 48 customizable technical indicators, all in real-time.

Arbitrage Trader Note: Reiterate Buy S&P500 08/01/2012

RIDE LIKE THE WIND: REITERATING BUY FOR S&P500

As our clients have followed, on July 22nd, we signaled “buy” for the generic market when S&P500 index was trading at 1,339s. On July 25th, we also wrote that the upward trend may continue until August 2nd for which date our market model algorithm had indicated a sell-off. Parallel to our expectations, the market moved to 1,380, briefly hitting the key resistance level at 1,390. Now, however, our arbitrage model signals a continued upward trend for at least the coming 2-week period:

  • Statistical arbitrage continues to recommend “buy. Our market model algorithm continues to indicate upwards move in the market direction for the coming at least 10 trading days. According to our models, there is about 77% probability of further upside movement.
  • Technically, we now see a potential re-test of the 2012-high, which was 1,422 for S&P500. This time we may actually see the break of this key level. For aggressive traders, our stop-loss level continues to be at 1,330.
  • FED & ECB? While the markets do not expect much surprise from the FED today, we think that we may see developments that were not priced in yet. Furthermore, the ECB’s move (especially after Mario Draghi’s speech last week) tomorrow will also play critical role in the overall market direction.

In short, we reiterate our bullish view on the generic market for the coming 2-weeks.
