We launched MTR forums on 4/25/09 so that traders and investors can collaborate on market timing, investing, trading, and making money!

This post covers some of the features of MTR forums.

1. Stock Charts: You can include stock charts in your posts by using the stock chart icon while posting. This was used to insert a chart of Microsoft below.



2. Images from Other Sites: You can also include images from other web sites. The image below is an image link to our logo.

3. YouTube: What would we do without YouTube? The WebBury 101 Video show below.


4. Uploading Images: You can upload images as part of your post and these will show up as attachments. Currently there is not a feature to include the images in the body of the post. The recent Barron's cover is attached to this post.

We review the MTR-TM from time to time for improvements. Back testing showed that even though the MTR-TM caught just about every major move in the market there were a couple of moves that were missed. This revised model has 12 more trades, 36% higher returns, and improved accuracy of trades.

The MTR Economic Model (MTR-EM) was updated with March 2009 data. You can customize the chart below on the Economic Model page of this site.

The year over year percentage change of the number of people employed (blue line) continued to move lower in March in a sharpening pace. Real-Wages year over year (green line), which is deflated by CPI and multiplied by the number of people employed, broke a recent uptrend. Real-Wages (gray line) which does not consider the number people employed also retreated but by a fractional amount. This chart would imply that the the consumer is still under deep pressure to make ends meets. This in turn will impact company earnings and would imply the recent stock market up trend may not continue.
