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.
  • CME Other Fees and Discounts
  • Event Contracts – Cash Settlement Fee waiver extended through August 31, 2023

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.

We started out 2023 with a bit better volume across the board and some large moves across different markets.

Still not the volume we saw in the first week of December but as large traders return from holidays the volume will pick up.

We have a busy day tomorrow!

ISM PMI

JOLTS

FOMC Minutes.

If anyone has holidays “hangover” tomorrow should cure that out as I expect some larger moves and higher volatility.

Heads up traders. The holidays are near at hand and with them, holiday trading hours and holiday trading conditions. This year, Christmas falls on a Sunday and Monday the 26th is the designated holiday. So, when the markets close Friday afternoon – at their regular times – the markets will remain closed Sunday night all the way through to their Monday afternoon/evening openings. Ordinarily, trade volume across all asset classes declines into a holiday and this may be augmented due to the extended closures of the markets. It’s advised to keep an eye on your open positions and open orders coming into the Monday afternoon opening.

Christmas 2022 Trading Schedule

New year’s Trading Schedule

We wish you all a safe and joyous holiday!!

 

From the CME Globex Control Center, executive summary:

 

Fri. Dec. 23 = ALL NORMAL closes

 

Mon. Dec. 26 (day) = CLOSED, all mkts.

 

Mon., Dec. 26 (night) = NORMAL opening and pre-opening for all – EXCEPT grains and livestock remain closed.

Triple Witching + Trading levels for 12.16.2022

Posted on by Ilan
Get Real Time updates and more on our private FB group!

START TRADING MARCH CURRENCY FUTURES AS WELL!

Triple Witching

Heads up traders:

Triple Witching is near. For those of you trading stock index futures – any size S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Russell 2000 – remember that this Friday at 8:30 A.M. Central Time, those contracts’ December futures expire and will no longer be available for trading. If you happen to hang on to any Dec. contracts past that time, they will automatically be offset via the cash settlement price of that contract. For you stock index futures options traders, if you to hang on to any Dec. options, the cash settlement price will determine whether your options are in or out of the money, in which case they will either expire worthless or be instantly exercised/assigned, valued and offset by the cash settlement price. Stock options also expire this Friday, thus the triple witching expression (no supernatural phenomena will appear at this time).

 

Final Settlement Procedures

Quarterly settlement of S&P 500, E-mini S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400, E-mini S&P MidCap 400, S&P 500 Citigroup/Growth and Value and SPCTR Index futures and options on futures are based on a Special Opening Quotation of the relevant underlying index. The Special Opening Quotation for each index is based on the opening price of each component stock in that index on expiration Friday.

Special Opening Quotations (SOQ) generally differ from the opening index value of each index because all stocks do not open immediately. For example, on typical days surveyed by CME Group, most S&P stocks open quickly, with around 95% open within 15 minutes and 98% open within 30 minutes. Other indexes with larger numbers of stocks may take longer to open.

 

Please contact your broker if you have any questions about your positions. And remember, the next front month for these contracts – March – is already well traded and available.

    • Important Notices – Rollover

    Rollover is here for stock indices. i.e., the E-mini and Micro S&P, Nasdaq, Dow Jones and Russell 2000.
    I personally start trading MARCH this Monday when the volume on March is higher than the December.
      Volume in the December contracts will begin to drop off until their expiration next Friday, December 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 December futures contracts through 8:30 A.M., Central Time on Friday, Dec. 16th, they will be offset with the cash settlement price, as set by the exchange.
     Monday, December 19th is Last Trading Day for June currency futures. It is of the utmost importance for currency traders to exit all December futures contracts by Friday, December 16th and to start trading the March futures. Currency futures are DELIVERABLE contracts.
    The month code for March is ‘H.’  Please consider carefully how you place orders when changing over.

Weekly Newsletter #1123: How is your IRA / 401k doing? + Levels for November 14th 2022

Posted on by Ilan

Cannon Futures Weekly Newsletter Issue # 1123

How is your IRA / 401k doing?

When the stock market declines, most retirement accounts lose value. That’s because IRA / 401k investments tend to be largely invested in purchased stocks – via stock mutual funds and/or an assortment of individual stocks.
But, did you know there are investments available for IRA’s and 401k’s that can provide positive returns in both up and down markets? Consider making an inquiry into our selection of automated trading systems that trade stock index futures contracts that track the major stock indexes like the S&P, S&P Midcap, Nasdaq, Dow Jones and Russell 2000.
If you are looking to diversify your current IRA or 401k portfolio with futures trading, but have little time or know-how to pursue things, one great first step would be to explore some of options we offer here at Cannon Trading CO.
Our licensed, experienced brokers are happy to provide feedback any of the automated trading systems from our selection, based on your available risk capital, your risk tolerance, overall financial goals.
Below please find links to some of systems we follow. Some examples of these systems are below for you review. Keep in mind that futures trading is risky and not suitable for everyone.

Futures trading is complex and carries the risk of substantial losses. It is not suitable for all investors. The ability to withstand losses and to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can adversely affect investor returns.

 

Hot Market

Gold futures snapped a downtrend of over a few months when they broke above the 1692 levels this week
Short covering rally along with higher interest rates fueled this market. Bitcoin weakness also helped the yellow metal safe heaven status.
Next possible upside target is 1805.
1692 support must hold.

Options vs. Futures…+ Trading Levels for 11.03.2022

Options on Futures OR Outright Futures?

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

Trading futures Options may be more suitable for your account’s well being when you are right about the direction of the asset, but incorrect about the timing of the move. Through options, you are literally buying time and value if they are in the money at expiration.

What is an option?

An option on a futures contract is the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell the underlying futures contract at a predetermined price on or before a given date in the future.

Option Benefits

  • Options can be used like insurance policies to limit losses on a futures contract.
  • They can also be used for speculative purposes, whether you are selling options to receive premium income or using options to establish a position in a particular commodity, index or interest rate.
  • As hedging instruments, options can produce offsetting gains in the face of adverse price changes in the cash market.
  • Options permit you to efficiently deploy capital, in the form of option premium. In this case, you can participate in the price movements of the underlying asset, without having to buy the asset outright.

Below is a roughly 1 hour course produced by the CME titled:

“Introduction to Options”

  Introduction to Options

As always, plan your trade and trade your plan. Please contact your broker or Cannon Trading with any questions.

 

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 when it comes to Futures Trading.

FOMC Trading Day Tips + Futures Trading Levels & Reports for 11.02.2022

Tomorrow we have FOMC.

The following are my PERSONAL suggestions on trading during FOMC days:
·    Reduce trading size
·    Be extra picky = no trade is better than a bad trade
·    Choose entry points wisely. Look at longer time frame support and resistance for entry. Take the approach of entering at points where you normally would have placed protective stops. Example, trader x looking to go long the mini SP at 3925.00 with a stop at 3919.00, instead “stretch the price bands” due to volatility and place an entry order to buy at 3919.75 and place a stop a few points below in this hypothetical example ( consider current volatility along with support and resistance levels).
·    Expect the higher volatility during and right after the announcement
·    Expect to see some “vacuum” ( low volume, big zigzags) right before the number.
·    Consider using automated stops and limits attached to your entry order as the market can move very fast at times.
·    Keep in mind statement comes out at 1 Pm Central time, the news conference which dissects the language comes out 30 minutes later so the volatility window stretches out.
·    Know what the market was expecting, learn what came out and observe market reaction for clues
·    Be patient and be disciplined
·    If in doubt, stay out!!
