July Oats finally stabilized their slide last month and then activated upside PriceCount objectives on the correction higher. Chart is satisfied its first count to $3.81 where it would be normal to get a near-term reaction in a form of consolidation or corrective trade. If you can sustain for the strength from here, the second count would project the possible run to the $4.10 area
PriceCounts – Not about where we’ve been , but where we might be going next!

The PriceCount study is a tool that can help to project the distance of a move in price. The counts are not intended to be an ‘exact’ science but rather offer a target area for the four objectives which are based off the first leg of a move with each subsequent count having a smaller percentage of being achieved. It is normal for the chart to react by correcting or consolidating at an objective and then either resuming its move or reversing trend. Best utilized in conjunction with other technical tools, PriceCounts offer one more way to analyze charts and help to manage your positions and risk. Learn more at www.qtchartoftheday.com
Trading in futures, options, securities, derivatives or OTC products entails significant risks which must be understood prior to trading and may not be appropriate for all investors. Past performance of actual trades or strategies is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Fed Pause Rates, ECB Tomorrow + Levels for June 15th

Don’t take anything for granted:

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

It’s a big week for financial markets and their related futures contracts with interest rate decisions from three major central banks coming one after another: the U.S. Federal Reserve (which just decided not to raise rates for the first time in eleven months), the European Central Bank and the Central Bank of Japan.

 

The Bank of Canada hiked rates last Wednesday to a 22-year high of 4.75%, having held rates steady since January.  The day prior, Australia’s central bank raised rates by a quarter point to an 11-year high and warned of further tightening ahead.

 

One of the take-aways from last week’s surprise rate increases in Canada and Australia and today’s first-time respite by the Fed.: don’t take anything for granted.

 

Economies around the world are experiencing disparate inflation trajectories compared to others – including the U.S. – and their central bank’s efforts to getting inflation down have started to deviate somewhat.  Financial and other futures markets, ever reacting to uncertainty – often overreacting – may become even more challenging arenas within which to trade.

 

This is pretty clear set-up to submit again the usefulness of trading options – either in combination with your futures trading or exclusive of it.  Trading options offers a near limitless range of risk/reward scenarios to take on, from that on par with straight futures trading to substantially less to absolutely limited.  And because options are valued in part by their ever-decaying lifespans, they offer another component to a trade’s outcome: time value.

 

If you think options aren’t for you, consider one sector’s growth in this area in the last recent years: equity index options.  Options in the E-mini S&P 500 and E-mini Nasdaq continue to see strong growth in participation and volume as market participants are increasingly turning to the them as part of their trading – and talk to your broker at Cannon Trading Co. for more information.

See below the ADV ( avg. daily volume) for NQ and ES

E-mini S&P 500 Options Annual ADV

E-mini Nasdaq-100 Options Annual ADV

Rollover is here for stock indices. i.e., the E-mini and Micro S&P, Nasdaq, Dow Jones and Russell 2000.

  Volume in the June contracts will begin to drop off until their expiration next Friday, June 16th (8:30 A.M., Central Time). At that point, trading in these contracts halts. Stock index futures are CASH SETTLED contracts. If you hold any June futures contracts through 8:30 A.M., Central Time on Friday, June 16th, they will be offset with the cash settlement price, as set by the exchange.

The Week Ahead:

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

Stock index price volatility is anticipated to pick up this week with the release of several key U.S. Government reports tied to inflation. It begins early Tuesday morning and continues through Thursday.

Before we get into the details , volatility typically = additional risk.

Some traders welcome the additional price movements as it may play into their collective strategic hands, while many other traders not only create a strategy that is based on smaller more well defined price movements but, rely on reduced volatility to trade successfully.

It is an urgent matter to understand what kind of trader you are, what type of system and indicators you employ and plan your trade around these reports as you see fit.

In anticipation of the release of these numbers, some clearing firms will be increasing the day trade margin rates during this time. Please contact your broker for any questions as it relates specifically to your clearing firm and and account so you have plenty of time and capital resources to plan for these changes. Many times these short term increases in margin rates are for a matter of minutes. be prepared.

As for the details, : Tuesday 7:30 a..m. CDT May CPI Consumer Price Index here is the consensus from Econoday.com

12c29538 b7a9 4259 bdd6 987303bca4cc

and Finally @ 1:00 P.M. CDT the Fed meeting concludes and the decision on the target range for fed funds will be released, followed by a 1:30 P.M. J, Powell News Conference with a Q & A session.

Thursday, Jobless claims, Retail sales and Industrial production close out the meaningful reports for the week as Friday should be a balancing day prior to the weekend and after the June ES expiration!  Strap your seat belts on!

Understanding expectations will allow you to trade with more confidence when there is a sudden change in policy directives!

Rollover is here for stock indices. i.e., the E-mini and Micro S&P, Nasdaq, Dow Jones and Russell 2000.

  Volume in the June contracts will begin to drop off until their expiration next Friday, June 16th (8:30 A.M., Central Time). At that point, trading in these contracts halts. Stock index futures are CASH SETTLED contracts. If you hold any June futures contracts through 8:30 A.M., Central Time on Friday, June 16th, they will be offset with the cash settlement price, as set by the exchange.

The month code for September is ‘U.’  Please consider carefully how you place orders when changing over.

Choppy Trading Week Ahead? + Futures Levels 6.06.2023

The Week Ahead:

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

There will be few government reports released this week that will have much of an impact on equity prices.

This past Saturday we have entered the FOMC Blackout period which will last through the next FOMC Rate decision on Wednesday, June 14th and conclude at midnight on June 15th.

Since there is no significant data, we are certain Fed Policy makers will have been able to breathe a bit easier after the debt limit breach was averted.

Next week is going to be considerably different. Why? the Consumer Price Index will be released a day prior to the FED rate decision and may have an 11th hour impact on the policy makers decision to raise or stay firm at current short term fed fund rate. According to the CME’s FedWatch tool, the prospect for rate changes has been anything but sanguine. May 5th there was only an 8.5% chance of another .25 increase and as recently as a week ago there was an over 60% chance and as of todays date the tool is projecting less that a 22% increase by .25 to the .0525-.0550 area. . .

As I said about CPI at the moment the market is pricing in no change but a CPI figure reversing the slow downtrend in current price levels could immediately change the expectations for no change this go round.

Understanding expectations will allow you to trade with more confidence when there is a sudden change in policy directives!

Plan your trade and trade your plan.

The June dollar Index satisfied its second upside PriceCount objective and is correcting. At this point, if the chart can resume its rally with new sustained highs, the third count would project a run to the 106.50 area although the March highs would represent a significant near term resistance level to contend with.
PriceCounts – Not about where we’ve been , but where we might be going next!
3587e5c7 4fa6 4951 8dc0 b43e4d999432
The PriceCount study is a tool that can help to project the distance of a move in price. The counts are not intended to be an ‘exact’ science but rather offer a target area for the four objectives which are based off the first leg of a move with each subsequent count having a smaller percentage of being achieved. It is normal for the chart to react by correcting or consolidating at an objective and then either resuming its move or reversing trend. Best utilized in conjunction with other technical tools, PriceCounts offer one more way to analyze charts and help to manage your positions and risk. Learn more at www.qtchartoftheday.com

Building a strong and effective working relationship with your commodities broker is essential to trading in the commodities market. By working collaboratively with your broker, you can better understand the complexities of the market, receive valuable advice and guidance, and ultimately make informed trading decisions. In this article, we’ll explore some of the best practices for building a strong working relationship with your commodities broker.

  1. Communication is Key
    The foundation of any strong working relationship is effective communication. Regular and open communication with your broker is essential to ensuring that you stay up to date with the latest market trends, trading opportunities, and risk management strategies. Make sure to communicate your needs and goals clearly, and be open to receiving feedback and advice from your broker.
  2. Be Honest and Transparent
    Transparency is crucial in building a trusting relationship with your commodities broker. Be honest and upfront about your experience level, risk tolerance, and investment goals. This information will help your broker provide you with the most relevant advice and guidance.
  3. Take Advantage of Educational Resources
    Commodities brokers often provide educational resources to their clients, including webinars, tutorials, and market analysis. Take advantage of these resources to deepen your understanding of the market and develop effective trading strategies.
  4. Stay Informed
    The commodities market is constantly evolving, with new opportunities and risks emerging on a daily basis. Make sure to stay informed about the latest market trends, news, and events that may impact your investments. Follow your broker’s social media channels, subscribe to industry newsletters, and attend industry conferences to stay up to date.
  5. Set Realistic Expectations
    It’s important to set realistic expectations for your commodities trading. While it’s certainly possible to make significant profits in the commodities market, it’s important to recognize that there is also a significant degree of risk involved. Work with your broker to develop a realistic trading plan that takes into account your risk tolerance, investment goals, and market conditions.
  1. Develop a Risk Management Strategy

A key part of successful commodities trading is managing risk effectively. Work with your broker to develop a comprehensive risk management strategy that takes into account factors such as diversification, stop-loss orders, and hedging strategies.

  1. Keep an Eye on Costs

Commodities trading can be expensive, with fees and commissions adding up quickly. Make sure to keep an eye on costs and work with your broker to find ways to minimize expenses while still achieving your investment goals.

  1. Build Trust

Building trust with your commodities broker is essential to achieving success in the market. Make sure to follow through on your commitments, be transparent about your investments, and communicate openly with your broker. By building a strong foundation of trust, you can work collaboratively with your broker to achieve your investment goals.

  1. Maintain a Long-Term Perspective

Commodities trading is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It’s important to maintain a long-term perspective and recognize that success in the market is often the result of careful planning, hard work, and patience. Work with your broker to develop a long-term investment strategy that aligns with your goals and risk tolerance.

  1. Evaluate Performance Regularly

Regularly evaluating your performance in the commodities market is essential to achieving long-term success. Work with your broker to set realistic benchmarks for your investments, and regularly evaluate your performance against these benchmarks. Use this information to make adjustments to your investment strategy and to identify new opportunities in the market.

In conclusion, building a strong working relationship with your commodities broker requires open communication, honesty, and transparency. Take advantage of educational resources, stay informed about market trends and events, set realistic expectations, and develop a comprehensive risk management strategy. Build trust with your broker, maintain a long-term perspective, and regularly evaluate your performance to achieve success in the commodities market.
