Weekly Newsletter: Cattle Outlook, Reduced Micro Bitcoin fees + Levels for March 6th

Cannon Futures Weekly Newsletter Issue # 1136

  • Brokers’ Trading System of the Week
  • Trading Levels for Next Week

Trading Updates:

The CME fee schedule effective March 1, 2023 has been added on the CME Group fee page.
Just this last November, the U.S. Justice Department announced that two Estonian citizens were arrested for their alleged involvement in a $575 million cryptocurrency fraud and money laundering conspiracy. That same month, a notable Chinese venture investor, Bo Shen revealed he lost $42 million worth of crypto as a result of a theft from his personal wallet.
Between then and now, the news of the collapse of crypto platform FTX continues to rattle the world of digital assets. To date, FTX’s customers’ funds are still frozen and they are losing hope they will ever get much back. It’s customers number in the millions. The 50 largest creditors alone are owed more than $3 billion dollars.
It makes you wonder about the safety and integrity of trading crypto assets.
Let this be a reminder that the world’s largest futures and options exchange – the CME Group – offers you a choice for managing cryptocurrency risk with Bitcoin and Micro Bitcoin futures and options as well as Ether futures.
These contracts trade on a regulated exchange where all participants see the same prices and quotes. Participants enjoy true market transparency and price discovery. They all can be easily traded on your supported trading platform.
For more information or a professional consultation, or to try a futures trading platform demo, contact Cannon Trading Co.
Updates effective March 1, 2023 are listed below and highlighted on the schedules:
  • CME Alternative Investment Product Fee Schedules
  • (NEW) Note 4 – Effective through August 31, 2023, the Exchange Fees for all Globex, EFP, EFR, Block and BTIC transactions in Micro Bitcoin Futures will be discounted to $0.70 for members and to $1.00 for non-members.
  • (NEW) Note 5 – Effective through August 31, 2023, the Exchange Fees for all Globex, EFP, EFR, Block and BTIC transactions in Micro Ether Futures will be discounted to $0.07 for members and to $0.10 for non-members.

PriceCounts – Not about where we’ve been , but where we might be going next!
April live cattle satisfied second upside PriceCounts objective last month and has spent time consolidating since. At this point if the charts can resume its rally with new sustained highs, the third count would project a run to the 171.92 area, very close to the old time high print from the fall of 2014.
1eeafc2f 6c1f 4814 a2a3 5bababe93b10
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.

Order Flow

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

When looking at a level II Depth of Market D.O.M. display we see the bids and offers 10 deep on either side of the market. This used to be tradeable information until the Algorithms started to become more prevalent around 2008-9 and created a less transparent, meaningful order book. Orders or rather, Bids and Offers would be cancelled and replaced making it difficult to see where the aggression was playing out giving the trader a clear as mud picture of price direction. Footprints reveal Points of Control P.O.C. ( highest volume price levels within the time frame bar) and can provide an area of decision making separate or in conjunction with S & R levels, Fib levels or similar areas of probability. Footprint charts, when mastered can reveal order book imbalances , Buy or Sell imbalances and give you, the trader the ability to identify your side of the market as you always want to buy with more aggressive bidders and sell with more aggressive offers.

  • Volume Footprint
  • Bid/Ask Footprint
  • Delta Footprint

Using Footprint charts may aid in trade management.

Cannon offers several trading platforms that offer unique insight into order flow, footprints, market profile and MORE!

Demos are available for the platforms below:

Selling Future Options Premium

Posted on by Ilan

Futures Options Writing

 

Have you ever wondered who sells the futures options that most people buy? These people are known as the option writers/sellers. Their sole objective is to collect the premium paid by the option buyer. Option writing can also be used for hedging purposes and reducing risk. An option writer has the exact opposite to gain as the option buyer. The writer has unlimited risk and a limited profit potential, which is the premium of the option minus commissions. When writing naked futures options your risk is unlimited, without the use of stops. This is why we recommend exiting positions once a market trades through an area you perceived as strong support or resistance. So why would anyone want to write an option? Here are a few reasons:

  1. Most futures options expire worthless and out of the money. Therefore, the option writer is collecting the premium the option buyer paid.

 

  1. There are three things that happen to the underlying price of the option: Price goes up, goes down or stays the same. If when the option expires, the market price was at or below your strike price you collect all the premium if two of those things happen Time decay is the option writer’s friend.

 

  1. The writer believes the futures contract will not reach a certain strike price by the expiration date of the option. This is known as naked option selling.

 

  • To hedge against a futures position. For example: someone who goes long cocoa at 850 can write a 900 strike price call option with about one month of time until option expiration. This allows you to collect the premium of the call option if cocoa settles below 900, based on option expiration. It also allows you to make a profit on the actual futures contract between 851 and 900. This strategy also lowers your margin on the trade, and should cocoa continue lower to 800, you at least collect some premium on the option you wrote. Risk lies if cocoa continues to decline, because you only collect a certain amount of premium and the futures contract has unlimited risk the lower it goes. So you should trade with a stop on the futures contract. You can read on different strategies using options on futures here:

 

https://www.cannontrading.com/tools/education-futures-options-trading-101

 

Cannon offers SPAN margins for options sellers.

Many brokers will restrict or increase the margins required for options sellers, or traders who like to “collect premium”, but here at Cannon we can find you the best set up utilizing the multiple clearing arrangements we have with more than a few FCMs.

How much margin is required to sell a futures option?

That is a question we get asked often. The exact number is an output of SPAN margins. SPAN deserves a post on its own, but what it stands for is: Standard Portfolio Analysis of Risk. The formula takes into consideration volatility, time value, distance of strike price from current underlying future, and more.

Outright options may be easier to “guesstimate” margin than more complex strategies and spreads, but our free platform, E-Futures Int’l (https://www.cannontrading.com/software/e-futures-international )has a margin calculator built in so you can calculate the margin you will need for different strategies.

Commission for selling options on futures?

Commissions will vary based on the following:

Are you trading online or with a broker?

Trading volume

Account size

Risk responsibility.

The rates for selling options will vary from as low as $0.25 per side + fees for HIGH VOLUME, institutional accounts to $30 per side + fees for retail, broker assisted accounts.

 

Selling options is NOT for newcomers as it involves higher risk than buying options.

However, selling options and trading option spreads may offer an edge if done with proper risk management. No guarantees are made here.

Our strength at Cannon is our ability to offer CUSTOMIZED trading solutions, so contact a broker at:

https://www.cannontrading.com/company/contact

and learn more about risks and opportunities in futures trading (https://www.cannontrading.com/riskopportunity), what software you can use, consult with a broker on margin, commissions and strategy questions and much more!

 

Trading Futures, Options on Futures, and retail off-exchange foreign currency transactions involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors.  You should carefully consider whether trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances, knowledge, and financial resources. You may lose all or more of your initial investment. Opinions, market data, and recommendations are subject to change at any time.

Gold WEEKLY chart for your review below.
This Sunday night I got the first weekly sell signal since the end of 2017. You can see the little red arrow along with the current bar marked in red. Just because a signal happened, does not mean we will see a sell off but for me personally it is a good probability that the pressure is stronger to the downside. I like some of the option plays one can do using vertical put spreads.

Looking to Save on Monthly Exchange Data fees?

Posted on by Ilan

Our E-Futures platform offers a top of the book option for data feed fees from the CME that is charged monthly to your account.  Instead of paying the traditional $15.00 bundle to receive data feed from the CME , NY MEX, COMEX and CBOT or  $5.00 per exchange, you now have the choice with our E-Futures platform to select top of the book which costs $3.00 for the CME bundle or $1.00 per exchange charged monthly.

Top of the book = best bid and best offer. One level of each side of the DOM

Depth of market ( DOM) = Top 10 levels on each side of current market price.
