Welcome to Ben's Stock Picks.  Have you been struggling with the  market of late? Are you trying to find a way to get ahead in these tough economic times? Perhaps, you are new to the market and are looking to get a head start in the game?  If so, you've come to the right place. 

After many years of doing stock picks, I decided to take advantage of the strong correlation between what the market does and what stocks do.   After some time doing research, I came up with my Easypick system so that I could use these market moves to make money while lowering my overall risk.  It has made me a much better trader and has now allowed me to make predictions with 70+% accuracy since 1/1/10.

With your permission, I am going to do my part in helping you get ahead in these awful times by sending out real- time alerts when my Easypick system says the market is about to tank or rise.  This will help  you generate profits or prevent losses no matter how bad or good the market is, without having to be by your computer all day.  Wouldn't it be nice for a change to actually make money in the market when the market is going down and silently chuckle when all your friends vent to you about it.  Well, I'm going to do my best to make that a reality.

So how does it work?  I watch the hourly S&P 500 chart for you and when the items on my checklist get met, I send you an email alert letting you know that we're taking a position.   We then hold it until the target gets met or until the market closes.  You'll also already know what to put your stop loss at with my stop loss guide.  By doing this, you eliminate any possibility for emotions to affect your trade. That’s it.  No stressing over every little movement.  No wondering if you should pull the trigger or not.  Just a very quick glance and that’s it. 

At 9:50am, I look at the S&P 500 chart and my Easypick system is telling me we have a screaming short position coming up.  I send out an alert to my subscribers telling them to be ready to go short.   We then put in our order so everything is all ready to go and then at 10am, execute it.   Once the trade has been executed, we enter in the target sell order indicated in the real time alert, as well as a stop loss.   We then can go back to watching a movie or eating a late breakfast or whatever it is that we want to do.    

After having a fun day relaxing, we come back to our computer shortly before the close of the stock market at 4pm EST and smile, for the S&P 500 has dropped nicely.   Since it didn't quite reach the target, we then place an order to make sure we're out of the market by 4pm.  We're happy because we realize we've made a nice 6.5 point gain and a cool $3250 on the 10 contracts of the Emini S&P 500  that we shorted.  

I've been pretty patient, checking every hour for the last few days to see if we're going to have a trade as the market has been in a range for a while.  After lunch, to my surprise, I see that my criteria has been met and the chart tells me to short the market for the rest of the day.  Despite having some reservations, I send out an alert to put in the order to go short at 2pm (since I don't let emotions affect my trades) and I'm quite pleasantly surprised when I come back 2 hours later as the market has cratered.  We get out at market closing and savor the 18 point gain.   With 10 emini S&P 500 contracts, that's an amazing $9,000 gain before commission.
