NFP, 4th of July Trading Hours, Stock Market Stats; Your 3 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on July 3rd, 2025

Posted on July 2, 2025 by Cannon Operations

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

NFP Tomorrow + 4th of July Friday

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

nfp

NFP is tomorrow rather than the usual Friday release!

Stock index futures will close early tomorrow at 12:15 Central time

Take care that the markets are in “holiday mode,” meaning trade participation and thus liquidity can decrease into the Independence Day holiday on Friday. This is more relevant than usual in that it comes along with the early release of this month’s employment report.

NFP

U.S. June Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) data will be released tomorrow morning at 7:30 A.M., Central Time, a day earlier that its typical first-Friday-of-the-month release.

Economists are forecasting non-farm payrolls to come in at +110,000 compared to the previous month’s +139,000. The June jobless rate is expected at 4.3%, up +0.1% compared to the previous month. Average hourly earnings are expected up +0.3% month over month. On top of that, weekly Jobless Claims will be released simultaneously.

Please see the schedule below for trading hours tomorrow and Friday. Note that trading hours will be abbreviated tomorrow and Friday.

Found some stock market stats: per data from the St. Louis Federal Reserve, the wealthiest Americans control a majority of shares. The top 1% own half of all corporate equities and mutual funds in the U.S. When factoring in the top 10% of Americans by wealth, ownership of the group rises to close to 90% of all stock market holdings.

This number has not changed meaningfully over time, with the percentage oscillating between 80% and 90% in data that goes back to the end of the 1980’s.

Sept. Mini SP 500

Although the weekly chart is trading at an all-time high, the September Emini S&P daily chart is challenging its contract high. At this point, a breakout with new sustained highs would project a run to the second upside PriceCount objective to the 6479 area.

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.

VIX, 12-Day War, Sept. Coffee; Your 3 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 25th, 2025

Posted on June 24, 2025 by Cannon Operations

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

Take a Look at the VIX

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

vix

12-Day War; Volatility and THE VIX

The Fragile state of the 12-day war will create more angst in our markets if the ceasefire does not hold. President Trumps impact reaches beyond the tariff wars as more negotiations will be revealed as western leaders meet in the Netherlands the next few days. And as Europe’s NATO leaders gather in The Hague to agree on a historic defense spending target of 5 percent, the answer may come as a surprise.

Rather than doing a market recap today; below is a brief I put together regarding The Volatility Index or simply “The Vix Index”. This instrument is a futures contract traded at the Chicago Board Options Exchange which is the pre-eminent American Stock Option Exchange.

Call your Cannon Broker if you think you would benefit from live or even delayed VIX data on your trading platform.

The VIX Index is a calculation designed to produce a measure of constant, 30-day expected volatility of the U.S. stock market, derived from real-time, mid-quote prices of S&P 500® Index (SPX℠) call and put options. On a global basis, it is one of the most recognized measures of volatility — widely reported by financial media and closely followed by a variety of market participants as a daily market indicator.

Market volatility is here to stay for the foreseeable future with its ebbs and flows.

Choose your opportunities wisely. Today’s market swings were largely back to normal (pre tariff talk normal)

Tomorrow:

Econ Data: Building Permits, EIA Crude oil stocks, New Home Sales

FED Chair Powell Congressional Testimony (Senate) 9:00 am

Earnings: Micron, General Mills

Tariff news: Anything goes!

The inverse can easily be represented by looking at the Daily S&P chart

Sept. Coffee

September coffee satisfied its second downside PriceCount objective and is consolidating its trade. At this point, IF the chart can resume its slide with new sustained lows, the third count would project a possible slide to the 282 area.

July Class III Milk

July class III milk continues to slide and has negated the remaining unmet upside PriceCount near 23 cents (not shown for presentation purposes) with the trade below the late April reactionary low. At this point, the chart would need to violate the contract low before it could take aim at the third downside count to the 16.89 area.

FOMC Wednesday, E Mini S&P; Your 2 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 18th, 2025

Posted on June 17, 2025 by Cannon Operations

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

FOMC Tomorrow!

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

FOMC

Tomorrow, we have FOMC with rate decision at 1 PM Central and statement at 1:30 pm Central.

Trading stock index futures on FOMC days calls for a measured, highly selective approach. The market tends to drift into a low volume “vacuum” in the hours leading up to the announcement, where exaggerated price moves can occur without conviction. This is not the time to force entries—no trade is better than a bad trade.

It’s critical to anticipate these zigzag patterns and avoid being lured into false signals. Reducing trading size is one of the smartest ways to manage risk on these days—volatility spikes can magnify both gains and losses, and scaling down helps preserve capital and composure.

Once the FOMC statement hits the wire, the real storm begins. Price action can whipsaw violently as traders digest the language and implications for interest rates. This is when patience pays off. Choosing entry points wisely—often by waiting for post-announcement patterns to stabilize—can mean the difference between catching a favorable trend and getting caught in the chop.

Discipline is everything: tight setups, controlled size, and a willingness to sit on your hands if conditions aren’t ideal can make all the difference. The FOMC isn’t a lottery—it’s a test of focus and restraint.

Sept. Mini SP 500

The September Emini S&P satisfied its first upside PriceCount objective last month and is consolidating with a sideways trade. At this point, IF the chart can resume its rally, it would have to contend with contract highs before it could potentially take aim at the second count to the 6480 area.

August Unleaded

August unleaded gasoline accelerated to the topside and satisfied the first upside PriceCount objective. It would be normal to get a near term reaction from this level in the form of a consolidation or corrective trade. IF the chart can sustain further strength, the second count would project a possible run to the 2.40 area which would represent a new contract high.

CPI, Crude Oil, July Heating Oil, Soybeans; Your 4 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 12th, 2025

Posted on June 11, 2025 by Cannon Operations

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

CPI Came and Gone

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

cpi

General:

Consumer Price Index (CPI)

May’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report showed inflation pressures eased on a monthly basis despite investor concerns that President Trump’s tariffs would accelerate the pace of price increases.

The latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased 0.1% month over month, below April’s 0.2% rise and lower than economists’ estimates of a 0.2% monthly gain in prices.

Energies:

Crude Oil

West Texas crude oil futures rallied to pre-“Liberation Day” levels as the U.S. and China tentatively reached a trade agreement. More consequentially, doubts grew that the U.S. and Iran were close to reaching a nuclear deal.

President Trump said he was losing confidence that a nuclear deal would be agreed upon, and Iran’s defense minister said his country would target U.S. military bases in the region if conflict broke out with the United States.

Amid those threats, the United States is evacuating diplomatic personnel from Iraq, a State Department official told the Middle East independent news Al-Monitor this afternoon.

Momentum likely also drew from this morning’s EIA’s report of a bigger-than-expected 3.6-million-barrel draw in U.S. crude stocks.

Grains:

Soybean, Corn

Conversely, Chicago Board of Trade soybean and corn futures drifted lower into the close of trading as uncertainty grew on a lack of specifics about agricultural goods in the framework of those same U.S. / China trade negotiations. China is the world’s biggest soybean importer, while the U.S. is the No. 2 exporter of the oilseed.

July Heating Oil

July heating oil is attempting to break out above the May high and resume its rally. New sustained highs would project a possible run to the first upside PriceCount objective to the 2.29 area. This target is consistent with a challenge of the April high and gap objective.

Win the Inside Game! July Crude Oil, June Strawberry; Your 3 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 11th, 2025

Posted on June 10, 2025 by Cannon Operations

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

Win the Inside Game!

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

Win the Inside Game, Crude Oil

June’s Strawberry Moon (full) will not appear this low again until 2043

CPI and insight from a long-distance running coach.

I recently listened to a podcast where a long-distance running coach was interviewed, He has written a book “Win the Inside Game”, his name is Steve Magness and he writes about the psychology of winning and losing, training the mind to overcome your physiological responses to self-doubt, losing and overcoming your own mental short comings.

They certainly apply to our sport, trading.

There are many parallels between trading and competing in a sport, in fact, when I was on the exchange floors, many members were retired professional athletes.

What stuck out to me about the similarities between, sport and craft was we all respond to EXTERNAL triggers. Mr. Magness writes (I am paraphrasing)

“in Fight or Flight responses, for athletes, cortisol is a hormone your adrenal glands release when he or she loses an event, game, championship, or simply when they can’t reach a training goal. When the same athlete, wins a contest or reaches goals, testosterone is released.

“Men and Women have plenty of both and these hormones and when they are released, change your thinking therefore, your decision making. Unfortunately, the body can also overreact to stressors that are not life-threatening, such as traffic jams, work pressure, losing trades.”

The take away for me is after each trade, allow your body to return to a level of equanimity before you take your next trade. Keep your emotions in check.

Choose your opportunities wisely. Prepare for shocks, on inflation soft and hard data, Tomorrow we have a big number Consumer Price Index CPI pre cash market opening.

The Stock market will continue to reveal the battle between Push-Pull inflation with Tariff uncertainty through price action.

Tomorrow:

Econ Data: CPI

FED Speak: BlackOut Period

Earnings: Quiet

July Crude Oil

July crude oil made its low in April after it completed its fourth downside PriceCount objective. The low was tested and held; leading to the recent sideways range of trade. Now, the chart has broken out to the topside and activated upside counts with a first objective that projects a potential run to the $71 area.
