Here are 4 tips for today's trading. This will help you decide where you should invest and what to look for:

1) Stock market movers -- Facebook, Apple, Yahoo, Alcoa

U.S. stock futures are looking perky Thursday.

Shares in Facebook (FB, Tech30), Apple (AAPL, Tech30), Yahoo (YHOO, Tech30) and Alcoa (AA) are all pushing up by about 1% ahead of the open.

This follows a tumultuous Wednesday. The S&P 500 fell by 1.7% after trading was halted at the NYSE due to a "technical glitch." The Dow Jones industrial average also shed 260 points and closed 1.5% lower, while the Nasdaq sank 1.8%.

2) China rebounds

It was a rocky Thursday but Chinese stocks closed the trading session with sizable gains after regulators announced new measures designed to stop the stock market crash.

The main Shanghai Composite rose by 5.8% and the smaller Shenzhen index gained 3.8%.

Chinese stocks went on a record run throughout the first half of the year -- with the Shenzhen rising by more than 120% -- but they have now come crashing back to earth.

3) Greek drama 

The Greek government is set to submit details later Thursday about how it will reform its economy, cut spending, and raise more taxes in a bid to receive a third bailout from the European Union.

European markets are all rising as investors hope for a positive resolution to Greece's debt crisis.

Leaders from all 28 nations in the EU will meet Sunday to make a decision on Greece's future.

Meanwhile, Greek banks are set to remain closed until early next week. The Greek economy has ground to a halt as individuals and businesses have been unable to freely access money in their bank accounts.

4) Earnings

Walgreen (WBA) and Pepsi (PEP) are reporting their quarterly earnings ahead of the open.

A favorable report from Pepsi could send its stock price above the all-time high it hit in February. It's traded at fairly even levels since then.

Walgreens will look to reap some of the benefits of a cost-cutting plan after it closed down 200 stores earlier this year.

Here are 4 tips for today's trading. This will help you decide where you should invest and what to look for:

U.S. stock futures are down by about 1% ahead of the open, Asian markets ended Wednesday with deep losses, but in Europe most of the major markets are edging up in early trading.

1. Keep an eye on China:

It's impossible to ignore what's happening in the world's second-largest economy right now.

A crisis of confidence has wiped trillions of dollars off the country's stock markets.

The Shanghai Composite lost another 5.9% Wednesday. The smaller Shenzhen Composite lost 2.5%, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng dropped 5.8%.

To put this in perspective, the Shanghai market has dropped by over 30% since hitting a recent peak and the Shenzhen is off by 40%.

"At the moment there is a mood of panic in the market and a large increase in irrational dumping of shares, causing a strain of liquidity in the stock market," China Securities Regulatory Commission said in statement.

More than half of all listed Chinese companies have opted to suspend trading in their shares in what is likely a defense against volatility. But it's possible that they are only delaying the inevitable.

2. What about Greece?:

Ah yes. Greece. The crisis continues as banks are still shut, the flow of money has nearly run dry and the government is butting heads with other European leaders as it tries to arrange a third bailout package.

European markets have taken a collective tumble over the past couple weeks as traders worry about the potential fallout if Greece has to drop out of the euro and begin printing its own currency.

But right now, markets are relatively stable as they await further bailout negotiations in the coming few days.

3. U.S. market overview:

U.S. stock futures are indicating there will be a significant drop at the open.

Premarket data shows the following companies could see their shares tumble when trading begins: Ross Stores (ROST), Freeport-McMoRan (FCX), Alcoa (AA) and Yahoo (YHOO, Tech30). The shares in these firms are all off by over 2% in extended trading.

Looking back at Tuesday, the Dow Jones industrial average gained 93 points, up by 0.5%. The S&P 500 rose 0.6% and the Nasdaq inched up by 0.1%.

4. Barclays ditches CEO:

Shares in the British bank Barclays (BCS) are rising by about 3% in London after the company announced it had ousted chief executive Antony Jenkins.

Chairman John McFarlane will act as executive chairman until a new CEO appointment is made.

The bank said the move doesn't signal a major change in its strategy, but that fresh leadership was needed.

Here are 4 tips for today's trading. This will help you decide where you should invest and what to look for:

Greece, China and Iran are all in the spotlight today.

1. Resuming Greek negotiations:

European finance ministers and heads of state are meeting Tuesday to discuss how to help Greece out of its economic hole. Greece is asking its European creditors for further bailout money, but leaders are reluctant to give in to the nation's demands since they doubt the country's ability to repay any new debts.

Greece defaulted on a debt payment last week to the International Monetary Fund.

The nation has already received two huge international bailout packages since 2010 with a value of roughly 240 billion euros ($264 billion).

European markets are mixed in early trading as investors wait for the talks to begin.

U.S. stock futures are edging up.

2. Volatile China:

Key Chinese stock markets took another tumble Tuesday, with the Shanghai Composite dipping by 1.3% and the Shenzhen index down by 5.3%.

The Shanghai Composite has fallen roughly 30% from its recent high in mid-June, and the Shenzhen Composite has plunged by nearly 40% from its peak.

Chinese authorities announced measures over the weekend that were designed to prop up the markets, but it's too early to say whether they'll stop the bleeding.

State media is reporting that many Chinese companies are simply taking themselves out of the firing line by suspending trading in their shares.

3. Iran talks influence oil:

Investors are waiting for further developments out of Iran.

Negotiators from Iran, the United States, China, Germany, France, Britain and Russia are trying to reach a deal to lift sanctions against Iran in exchange for assurances that the country will maintain a peaceful nuclear program.

If they are able to reach a deal, Iran intends to quickly ramp up oil exports.

The prospect of a deal sent oil prices tumbling Monday. Now crude futures are moving back up by about 1% to trade just over $53 per barrel.

"It is important to emphasize that it will take some time for Iranian oil to hit the market, but certainly traders are willing to price that factor as the story develops further," said Naeem Aslam, chief market analyst at AvaTrade.

4. Earnings:

The Container Store (TCS) will report its latest quarterly results after the markets close.

Stock markets are making some nausea-inducing moves Monday as investors react to major developments out of Greece and China.

1. Investors seeing red:

U.S. stock futures are deep in negative territory, with investors taking their cue from Europe and Asia, where nearly all major stock markets are falling.

European stock markets are down by roughly 1% to 2% as traders react to the results of Sunday's Greek referendum. The country voted by a wide margin to reject Europe's latest bailout offer. This raises the risk that the country could now suffer a worse economic disaster and lose its place in the euro.

Yields on Greek 10-year government bonds soared to nearly 17% as investors saw an increased risk that the country will have to dump the euro. Yields on government bonds in Spain, Portugal and Italy are also rising, though the moves were modest. Bond yields in perceived safe havens like Germany and the U.S. are edging lower.

Meanwhile, Chinese stocks remained volatile, despite a series of dramatic steps by officials over the weekend that were designed to support markets.

After opening with a gain of roughly 7%, the benchmark Shanghai Composite lost steam. It closed with a gain of 2.4% Monday. The smaller Shenzhen Composite, which also started the day in positive territory, reversed course and ended 2.7% lower.

2. Keeping up with currencies:

The U.S. dollar and British pound are broadly stronger Monday morning while the euro is weaker.

Traders are reacting to continued uncertainty about Greece's future.

3. Stock market mover:

Rolls-Royce Holdings: Investors are selling shares in Rolls-Royce Holdings (RYCEY), which is one of the world's biggest manufacturers of aerospace engines. The stock is dropping by about 9% in London after the company warned about weaker-than-expected business trends in the first half of this year. The company is also halting its share buyback program.

4. Waiting for an Iran deal:

Investors are waiting for further developments out of Iran. Negotiators from Iran, the United States, China, Germany, France, Britain and Russia are trying to reach a deal to lift sanctions against Iran in exchange for assurances that the country will maintain a peaceful nuclear program.

A June 30 deadline for an agreement has come and gone, so now U.S. negotiators are hoping for a deal later this week.

Jul

In the last few days some surprising events occurred that affected the global markets as well as our signals. The NFP announcement was one of those events which came as a surprise to many, including us. The announcement fell short from the actual forecast which caused the USD to weaken, and investors around the globe to experience losses.

So far, our signals today are doing great as most of them are in the money, and the total payout is $31940.00 (see picture below).

Moreover, as you can see in our website in previous reports, our signals had much better results with 90% success rates, which only strengthen the fact that the recent days do not tell the true story.

As we can see in the poll below, when our users were being asked if the USD would rise following the NFP announcement, 82% said 'Yes' while only close to 18% answered 'No'.

Lately the FOREX market was unstable and more vulnerable. But this is about to change as the Americans won’t let the USD fall, because of the 4th of July celebrations take place this Saturday. We suggest that you register to our services and get our signals to achieve better results in the next days to come.

We recommend our customers that had some bad results in the last few days, to look at the big picture and not get too caught up with them.

If we look towards the future, investors should strongly consider to get more involved in the Commodities markets, especially Crude Oil, Gold and Silver. And to remember, once the EUR and USD experience fallings, be sure to think about trading in Gold and Silver. Also, we recommend to invest in a Stock or Commodity if you sense a serious movement up or down.

Speak with our representatives and trade with better results starting now!

Signals Binary staff wishes you a happy 4th of July!

Here are 4 tips for today's trading. This will help you decide where you should invest and what to look for:

1. Jobs report:

The health of the U.S. economy takes center stage today. June employment and wage figures are due out at 8:30 a.m. ET, one day early thanks to the July 4 holiday.

But pay close attention to the wage figures. Average hourly wages are likely to hold pretty steady at 2.2%, well below the Federal Reserve's 3.5% target. The jobs report is key for the Fed in deciding whether or not to hike interest rates for the first time since the recession began.

2. Greece groans:

Just days before a referendum that is likely to decide the country's future in the eurozone, there are still plenty of surprises coming out of Greece.

European lenders were unmoved Wednesday by the Greek government's surprise bailout U-turn, saying they won't consider any proposals before Sunday's vote.

The International Monetary Fund confirmed that the bankrupt country remains locked out of more support until it pays $1.7 billion owed.

3. China stocks:

Another day, another wild ride for Chinese stocks. The Shanghai Composite closed down 3.5%, while the smaller Shenzhen Index lost 5.6%. Investors in China are getting used to plenty of volatility, despite efforts by Beijing to stabilize the market.

4. Earnings updates:

Food maker McCormick (MKC) and Bassett Furniture (BSET) will release their latest quarterly earnings before the open. Family Dollar (FDO) will report after the close.
