August Live Cattle

August live cattle recently activated downside PriceCount objectives from the June highs. The first count projects a possible slide to the 206.40 area. The low percentage fourth upside count near 257 is not shown here for presentation purposes.

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.

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

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

 

FOMC Tomorrow!

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

fomc

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.

IMPORTANT RISK DISCLOSURE

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.

The returns for trading systems listed throughout this website are hypothetical in that they represent returns in a model account. The model account rises or falls by the average single contract profit and loss achieved by clients trading actual money pursuant to the listed system’s trading signals on the appropriate dates (client fills), or if no actual client profit or loss available – by the hypothetical single contract profit and loss of trades generated by the system’s trading signals on that day in real time (real-time) less slippage, or if no real time profit or loss available – by the hypothetical single contract profit and loss of trades generated by running the system logic backwards on backadjusted data (backadjusted).

Please read carefully the CFTC required disclaimer regarding hypothetical results below. HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW.

NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN; IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM.

ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT.

IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK OF ACTUAL TRADING.

FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.

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

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.

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.

Past performance of actual trades or strategies is not necessarily indicative of future results.

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.
