More than a few FED Personnel will be talking tomorrow which can move the markets at times. Please see insight by my colleague John Thorpe, Senior Broker below:

Fed Chair Testimony tomorrow morning , 10:00 a.m. EST Tomorrow , January 11th, Jerome Powell will be speaking at 10:00 a.m. EST Before the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs in the U.S. Senate , Prepare yourselves and trading accounts for statements designed to provide calm in lieu of the recent market turbulence. The difficulty for Powell, unlike his recent speech about the Fed minutes, which is written ahead of time, is this “testimony” will be ad lib. My belief is the markets will react more intensely to Chairman Powell’s testimony than the volatility we saw during the January 5th minutes of the December 14-15 2021 policy meeting. Markets have been traveling largely in one direction since that moment in time. Equity indices lower, Bonds and notes lower, Metals lower, food stuffs lower.. Be careful during this time frame and expect unexpected market reactions in many of the markets we are trading during his nomination testimony.

Trading 102: Day Trading Commodities with Crude Oil Futures

Crude Oil Futures Volatility Offers A “Different Market Personality” Than Stock Index Futures. Here Is Some Of The Things You Need To Know About Day Trading Crude Oil Futures:
By: Ilan Levy-Mayer, Cannon Trading Commodities Broker & VP
Crude Oil is one of MY favorite futures market for day trading. Before I dive in and share with you how the volatility in crude oil fits my risk tolerance for day trading and provide a couple of chart examples, we should review some of the specifications of Crude Oil Futures.
Crude Oil Futures have monthly expiration. So each month we trade a different contract month, so one needs to know when is the first notice day and last trading day for crude oil futures in order to always make sure we are trading the proper month with the most liquidity and avoid any chance of getting into delivery situation.
Next is the contract size. Crude Oil futures are based on 1000 barrels. To be honest from a day trading perspective all I care is that each tick or 1 cent fluctuation is $10 against me or in my favor per contract. That means that a move from 92.94 to 92.74 = $200.
Another factor is trading hours. At the time I am sharing my thoughts with you, April 8th 2013, crude oil futures trade on the CME Globex platform and trade from 5 PM CDT until the next day at 4 PM CDT. That is 23 of straight trading hours. I definitely don’t recommend day trading this market 23 hours…but it is good to know the trading hours.
Volume in crude oil futures is pretty good to trade in my opinion. Averaging about 300,000 contracts per day.
One last pointer to touch on is the API (American Petroleum Institute) report that normally comes out Wednesday at 9:30 CDT (on short weeks, holidays etc. , this report will be pushed to Thursday at 10 AM CDT). I tell my clients that this report is way too volatile and I like to be out 5 minutes before and not resume trading 5 minutes until after the report comes out. This report by itself deserves a writing but on short, the report provides information on how our stock pile is doing ( = supply/demand) and the market will move based on the numbers versus what was expected. Again as a day trader, your main job is to know about this report, when it comes out and in my opinion stay out of the market during this time..Fill out the form below to read the full article.

NFP Report Tomorrow & Support and Resistance Levels 1.07.2021

NFP Report Tomorrow: By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

Here comes the Labor Department’s December Non-Farm Payrolls Report, long form for the unemployment report.
We just saw the surge in private hiring in the ADP National Employment Report on Wednesday. According to the report, private payrolls jumped by 807,000 jobs last month, the most in seven months and nearly double the early consensus after rising by 505,000 in November. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast private payrolls would increase by 400,000 jobs. The ADP report has a poor record of predicting the Labor Dept.’s numbers – primarily because of each report’s differing means of collecting data. The consensus for tomorrow’s report is to see 400,000 new jobs created, with a consensus range of 300,000 to 500,000. Private payrolls are expected to come in ±363,000.
This month’s backdrop includes a demand for workers reaching historic highs as businesses struggle to meet the rush of demand for goods and services. A record 4.5 million Americans quit their jobs in November as employers sought to fill 10.6 million job openings. Hires rose from 6.5 million in October to 6.7 million in November, a sign that most job-quitters are switching to new firms instead of dropping out of the workforce. On top of these variables, the rapid spread of the Omicron variant and its impact on jobs may not be reflected in this month’s report.

Will their decision add to the existing inflationary concerns or will OPEC concede it’s output tightening instituted in 2020 has run it’s course and agree to raise it’s output limits in a measured approach or more substantially? The bond market has taken a nose dive in recent days and interest rates are expected to rise , tightening credit, Metals have also sold off in anticipation of easing inflationary pressures.

Trading 101: 5 Big Mistakes Beginners Should Avoid Making

Trading Futures Is A Tough Business, But If You Are One Of The Very Few That Can Succeed, This Could Be A Lucrative Business As Well
Ilan Levy-Mayer |SmallCapPower I have seen quite a bit since I became a broker in 1998. Some war stories to share about the markets, some crazy moves and much more in between. I was trading futures with clients on the sad Sept. 11th 2001 day when the planes hit and the markets were plunging before they were closed for almost a week. I witnessed the meat contracts making limit up and limit down moves over the years and much more…..
As a commodity broker I have observed MANY traders, many of them were new traders, and this allows me to share with you some valuable observations I hope will help you start your futures trading journey on a much smoother road than most.
Here are the FIVE CRUCIAL MISTAKES you need to avoid!
