  • Trading Resource of the Week – : Rectangle Trading Pattern

By Joe Easton, Senior Broker
Formation:
  •    This pattern is defined as price coming into a tight range between support and resistance
  •    This pattern is a continuation pattern. If the trend was up it will continue up and down it will continue down
  • Typically, volume is lower through this period of consolidation.

In the examples above the range is creating a rectangle pattern in an uptrend. Ideally this pattern breaks higher without breaking lower support. If lower support is broken this pattern would no longer be a rectangle.
How to Trade:
The ideal entry is toward the bottom of the rectangle support. If entered on this line your stop should be below support. Price should bounce off support 2 to 3 times to be confident support is present.
The more conservative entry would be when the resistance in the rectangle is broken. This can happen very quickly and needs to be timed more accurately. The lower support line then becomes your stop. You could also make the resistance line become your stop.
When price breaks out you can measure the width of rectangle and project the price to move from the breakout that same distance at a minimum.
Summary:
Rectangles patterns exist in low volume consolidation in both uptrends and downtrends. Price corrects in two ways, time and price. This would classify more as a time correction considering price stays relatively consistent. Once price closes above the resistance you can expect the price to not retrace back into the rectangle. If there is a false breakout, the continuation is less likely to occur. Generally, if you are able to spot a rectangle you can expect the price trend to continue.
Important: Trading commodity futures and options involves a substantial risk of loss.

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.

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

In this article, we will explore some of the key characteristics to look for when choosing a futures trading platform.

  1. Reliability
    Reliability is one of the most important characteristics to look for when choosing a futures trading platform. The platform should be able to handle large volumes of trading activity without experiencing slowdowns or crashes. The last thing you want is to have your trades disrupted by technical issues with the platform.

    Before choosing a futures trading platform, make sure to research the platform’s reliability. Look for reviews from other traders, and check the platform’s uptime and response times during periods of high trading activity.

  2. SecuritySecurity is another critical characteristic to look for when choosing a futures trading platform. The platform should have robust security measures in place to protect your personal and financial information. Look for platforms that use encryption to protect your data and two-factor authentication to secure your account.

    It’s also important to choose a platform that is regulated by a reputable regulatory authority. This will help ensure that the platform operates within legal guidelines and is held accountable for any misconduct.

  3. User-Friendly Interface
    A user-friendly interface is essential for traders who want to make informed decisions quickly. The platform should be easy to navigate, and the trading tools and resources should be intuitive and accessible. Look for platforms that offer customizable dashboards and trading tools that can be tailored to your needs.
  4. Range of Markets
    The range of markets available on a futures trading platform is another important factor to consider. Look for platforms that offer a wide variety of futures contracts, including agricultural, energy, metals, interest rates, and equity indexes. The more markets available, the more opportunities you’ll have to diversify your portfolio and find profitable trades.
  5. Trading Tools and Resources
    Trading tools and resources are essential for traders who want to make informed decisions. Look for platforms that offer real-time market data, research and analytics, order types, trading APIs, and risk management tools. These tools can help you analyze the markets, identify trends, and execute trades with precision.
  6. Low Fees
    Low fees are important for traders who want to maximize their profits. Look for platforms that offer low commissions, margin rates, and transaction fees. However, it’s important to keep in mind that low fees may come with trade-offs, such as limited trading tools or resources.
  7. Customer Support
    Customer support is another critical characteristic to look for when choosing a futures trading platform. The platform should offer reliable customer support that is available 24/7. Look for platforms that offer multiple support channels, such as phone, email, and live chat, so you can get help quickly if you run into any issues.
  8. Mobile Trading
    Mobile trading is becoming increasingly popular among traders who want to stay connected to the markets while on-the-go. Look for platforms that offer mobile trading apps that are user-friendly and offer the same trading tools and resources as the desktop platform. This will allow you to monitor your trades and execute orders from anywhere at any time.
  9. Education and Training
    Education and training are essential for traders who want to improve their skills and stay up-to-date on the markets. Look for platforms that offer educational resources, such as webinars, tutorials, and articles, that can help you learn the basics of futures trading and develop advanced trading strategies.
