Non-Farm Payroll, July Silver; Your 2 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 6th, 2025

NFP – Non-Farm Payroll, July Silver; 6.6.25

By Ilan Levy-Mayer, VP

Non-Farm Payroll tomorrow. Market moving report.

non-farm payroll

Trading during the Non-Farm Payroll release can be highly volatile and unpredictable, making it crucial for traders to exercise caution. The Non-Farm Payroll report, released on the first Friday of each month, provides key insights into U.S. employment trends and can significantly impact currency, stock, and futures markets.

This sudden influx of data often triggers rapid price swings, stop hunts, and temporary market distortions. Many traders attempt to capitalize on these movements, but the heightened volatility can lead to increased slippage and unexpected losses.

It’s essential to use appropriate risk management strategies, such as adjusting position sizes, setting wider stop losses, or waiting until the initial volatility settles before entering a trade.

Another critical factor to consider is the drying up of liquidity during Non-Farm Payroll trading. Liquidity tends to thin out just before and immediately after the report as market participants, including institutional investors, pull back or adjust their positions cautiously.

This can result in exaggerated price movements, making it harder to execute trades at desired levels. Spreads may widen, and orders might experience delays or unfavorable fills.

To navigate this environment effectively, traders should be mindful of the risks and consider using limit orders instead of market orders, staying informed on previous Non-Farm Payroll trends, and avoiding overleveraging positions.

Patience and preparedness can help mitigate unnecessary risks while trading around this high-impact event.

That’s Non-Farm Payroll. Now, July Silver…

July Silver

July silver is challenging its contract high from last fall. If the chart can break out with new sustained highs, we have open PriceCounts to the topside with the first objective projecting a possible run to the 38.45 area.

b9fefb03 1b8b 4ccb 91d0 059142032c39

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.

E-Mini: Dow, Nasdaq, S&P 500; Jobs Report, July Hogs: Your 5 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 5th, 2025

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

What to Know Before Trading Futures on June 5th

Key points for tomorrow: E-Mini, Jobs Report

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

U.S. stock index futures traded on both sides of the flatline into today’s close of trading with a lack of progress on tariff negotiations and economic data suggesting the uncertainty was taking a toll.

E-Mini

e-mini

At this typing, the E-mini S&P 500 index traded near unchanged, while the E-mini Dow Jones contract dipped ±100 pts and the E-mini Nasdaq pushed up ±67 pts.

Trade News

President Donald Trump stated he expected a call with Chinese leader Xi Jinping this week to discuss trade, though he also suggested it might be an uphill battle. Investors would welcome any thaw in trade relations with China, one of the U.S.’s largest trading partners.

Jobs Report

Meanwhile, investors also await the Labor Department’s monthly jobs report this Friday. The report could be a barometer of how much, if any, businesses are delaying hiring due to tariffs.

On Wednesday, payroll processor ADP said private-sector firms added just 37,000 workers in May, the lowest since March 2023, and well below Wall Street’s expectations of 115,000 workers. April’s tally was also revised down. ADP’s report is sometimes seen as a harbinger of the official government release, though it often misses the mark.

Also on Wednesday, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Trump’s tax bill will increase deficits by $2.4 trillion over the next decade. Investors and analysts have warned that elevated deficits will lead to higher interest rates, since the U.S. government will need to pay more to attract investors to buy its debt.

Meanwhile, a closely-watched gauge of business activity in the service sector fell below the line that separates growth from contraction in April. ISM’s Services Purchasing Managers Index was at 49.9 in May, the lowest in a year, and a reminder of the impact of trade war uncertainty.

July Hogs:

July hogs are challenging their contract highs. The chart has upside PriceCounts in place where a breakout into new sustained highs would project a possible run to the first count to the 112.28 area.

Drawdowns, ISM, EIA Energy, Beige Book; Your 4 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 4th, 2025

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

Drawdowns

ISM, EIA Energy, Beige Book

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

Relatively quiet day in most futures markets today,

Not much regularly scheduled economic or earnings news tomorrow with a glint of fed speakers, only 2.

The Drawdown

drawdown

Rather than doing a market recap today below is a brief I put together regarding drawdowns and the psychology of drawdowns: In my opinion, they are not a bad thing, in fact I believe that drawdown periods are a very sane and good thing for any solid strategy. Drawdown periods are very efficient to shake out weak traders from the strategy while smarter traders can pick up their money (which is the name of the game after all). The time that passes since the first equity high until we reach a new equity high is the drawdown period. So, a drawdown period has two dimensions:

The drawdown depth and the drawdown length.

Most people care about the drawdown depth as this is what is easier to see on back tests. However, the human the brain is much more affected by drawdown length. During live trading, it is easier to deal with a 10% drawdown for one week than with a 5% drawdown for five months.

  • Detailed statistical information about the strategy: Expected profit, expected drawdown, maximal drawdown depth and length, average win percentage, reward to risk ratio, …
  • Different scenarios and the actions to take (if any): intense and/or deep drawdown periods and what to do (or do nothing), whether to trade during Christmas time or summertime, whether to keep open positions during weekends or not, what to do after a losing year (or do nothing), funding and withdrawing plan, …
  • A very clear worst-case scenario: it is basically the “line in the sand” where we know that the strategy has lost it’s edge and something must be done (stop trading the strategy, adapting parameters, …). There are many ways to calculate it (double the max historical drawdown, using Montecarlo simulations, using regression lines multiplied by x times the standard deviation on the equity curve, …). In the end it is a number. The important thing is to have it written in the trading plan.

When facing a problem that generates pain or panic such as a sudden deep drawdown, most of the time, when analyzed with rigor and care, the problem is not so important, and everything is within expected statistics. You will see that there were many periods in the past with similar characteristics.

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:  ISM Services PMI, EIA Energy

FED Speak: 2

Earnings: Dollar Tree

Tariff news: Anything goes!

July Wheat – Corn Spread

It took a couple of attempts but the July wheat – corn spread has decisively broken out above the extended downtrend, and activated upside PriceCounts objectives in the process. The first count projects a possible run to the $1.20 area.

FOMC Minutes, NVIDIA Earnings, July Rough Rice; Your 3 Important NEED-TO-KNOWS for Futures Trading on May 28th, 2025

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

FOMC Minutes, NVIDIA

fomc

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

CME is in the process of initial margin reduction.

The Initial margin for the ES is now just 23,996.50 approx. $1000 less than last week.

An important data day tomorrow: 

FOMC Meeting Minutes and NVIDIA earnings release.

From the wires today:

An upbeat earnings report by Nvidia Corp. would bode well for a rally in US equities as investors have about $7 trillion parked in cash funds, according to BBVA strategists.

Institutional positioning in the US technology sector is “undemanding” with hedge funds and mutual funds still substantially underweight, strategist Michalis Onisiforou said. Exposure of trend-following Commodity Trading Advisors (CTA) to the broader stock market is also neutral, while volatility control funds have plenty of room to add to risk, he said.

“With the institutional length in equities far from exuberance levels,” Onisiforou said the setup favors higher exposure to stocks

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:  Dallas, Richmond, Redbook and FOMC minutes.

July Wheat

July wheat activated upside PriceCount objectives and satisfied the first count to the $5.53 area. It would be normal for the chart to react in the form of a near term consolidation or corrective trade from this level, and it is. If we can sustain further strength, the second count projects a run to the $5.70 area.

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

Equity Indexes / Interest Rates:

Stock index futures turned lower this afternoon after a disappointing Treasury bond auction accelerated a selloff in the debt market.

The June E-mini Dow Jones futures contract dropped over 800 points, more than 2.0%, leading the E-mini S&P 500 and E-mini Nasdaq indexes lower in afternoon trading.

Financials:

U.S. 30-yr. T-bond and 10-yr. T-note futures also sold off and correspondingly debt yields spiked, with the 10-yr. rate climbing toward 4.6% and the 30-yr. rate eclipsing 5.0%

Yields extended gains in the afternoon after a $16 billion auction of 20-year Treasury bonds attracted relatively soft demand from investors, selling at a higher yield than traders had anticipated.

The selloff in stocks followed earnings reports from retailers Target, Lowe’s and TJX. Target cut its annual outlook.

Crypto:

Bitcoin futures climbed to a new all-time high for the first time since January. The current front-month May futures contract traded intraday up to 110,745 before paring its gains. Bitcoin futures total open interest surged to a record $75 billion, signaling heightened leveraged exposure as traders are eyeing a breakout above a key $108,000 resistance level. The CME Group / Chicago Mercantile Exchange leads with $17.43 billion in open interest. Within the highly leveraged environment, the potential for liquidations of short positions becomes a powerful force that could propel Bitcoin futures to new highs.

June Emini S&P

Emini S&P

The June Emini S&P activated upside PriceCount objectives off the April low last month. Now, the chart is approaching its first count to the 6030 area where it would be normal to get a near term reaction in the form of a consolidation or corrective trade.

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.
