Category: Indices

A plural of indexes, indices is a term often used in the markets. There are different indexes or indices in the markets and these don’t always move up or down in coordination. Indexed moving in tandem would create redundancy meaning that we don’t need more than one of them.

The Dow and the S&P500 are two extremely noteworthy as well as popular indices. While a change in the Dow indicated that the expectations of the investors have changed with regard to the risks and earnings of large companies, the S&P500 features 500 of the most highly traded stocks in the U.S.

Each index is different from another and each one behaves differently. You won’t find any one index that has continued to look the same over the years. Moreover, every index depicts a different thing. You can gain a deeper understanding into the world of indices.

We at Cannon Trading help you by providing the latest information on indices and their market performance. You can read it all here under one archive tagged as Indices. Read and be informed.

The Action Packed Week Ahead: Govt releases inflation numbers, over 2k earnings numbers, the Budget talks Friday deadline and 11 fed speeches.

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

 

A respected daily futures market analyst : Hightower (free with a live trading account using the E-Futures trading platform, no charge) says about this week in the equities market:

“The next five days of trade could present historical volatility “

The Reasons are varied, from the issuance of the inflation numbers this week, CPI and PPI, to the Debt ceiling and the Moody’s downgrade of the U.S.’s debt to the middle of earnings season.

Tuesday:

For CPI Expectations tomorrow morning @ 7:30 a.m. CST.

This from the Analysts desk at Morningstar: The Consumer Price Index report for October 2023 is forecast to show a continued overall decline in inflation, led largely by moderating energy prices.

However, economists expect core CPI (which excludes volatile food and energy prices) to show stickiness rather than improvement, holding at levels well above the Federal Reserve’s target.

According to FactSet, the overall CPI is forecast to come in at a 3.3% annual rate in October, down from 3.7% in September. Meanwhile, core CPI is expected to remain at September’s levels, with a 4.1% increase from a year ago.

New Micro Nat Gas, Crude Oil Chart + Futures Trading Levels for Nov. 9th 2023

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

Updates and Bullet Points:

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

 

General: 

We have a new futures contract.  It started trading on Monday.  This is the Micro Henry Hub Natural Gas futures contract and corresponding options.

 

To quote directly from the CME Group web site, “The introduction of Micro Henry Hub Natural Gas futures and options responds directly to customer demand for a smaller, more precise instrument for managing natural gas price exposure. At one-tenth the size of the benchmark Henry Hub (NG) contract, Micro Henry Hub Natural Gas futures and options offer more granularity and smaller margin requirements with the same robust transparency and price discovery of the larger Henry Hub contracts.”

 

Follow the link below to the contract’s full contract specifications on the CME Group web site:

 

https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/energy/natural-gas/micro-henry-hub-natural-gas.contractSpecs.html

 

Heads up: most FCM’s / clearing firms, including the five FCM’s Cannon Trading Co. partners with, will monitor a new futures contract for sufficient liquidity before making it available to its clients.  Give Cannon Trading a call to find out the availability of the contract.

 

Energy: 

Incidentally, natural gas (basis Dec.) dropped ±50 cents (a ±$5,000 move) over the last six trading sessions to ±$3.10 /mmBtu. down to new 2-year lows on forecasts for above-normal temps. across the U.S. for the next fifteen days and continental U.S. production remaining near all-time highs,”

 

Financials: 

Stock index futures are struggling today to extend their longest winning streak in two years – clocking seven straight daily gains – as we approach the close of trading.  At this typing, the E-mini S&P 500 is trading just a few ticks either side of unchanged, while the E-mini Dow Jones and E-mini Nasdaq are slightly off.

 

More energy: 

Crude oil extended its more than 2-week sell-off to its lowest level in over three months.  From an intraday high of $89.85 per barrel on Oct. 20, the front month traded through $75.00 per barrel this morning – a ±$15.00 per barrel / $15,000 per contract move.

 

DAILY CHART BELOW

 

News pushing prices south include global demand worries, record U.S. production and ebbing supply concerns surrounding the Gaza conflict.

 

Given its ability to create a ripple effect, the ±15% price decline dragged U.S. pump prices down to levels not seen since March.  It has also helped rein in inflation expectations and worrisome bond yields.

 

While this paints a picture that fears are subsiding that a wider conflict could be emerging in the Middle East and disrupt supplies, traders should remain on high alert for signs to the contrary.

Plan your trade and trade your plan.

December Mini SP500 satisfied it’s second downside PriceCount objective last month and is correcting higher. At this point, IF the chart can resume its break into new sustained lows, the third count would project a possible run to the 4,015 area. It would take a trade below the December reactionary low to formally negate the remaining unmet upside objectives.
PriceCounts – Not about where we’ve been , but where we might be going next!

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.

What you need to know before the close of the trading week:

By Senior Broker, Mark O’Brien

General: 

 

It will likely be challenging to predict the next stage of the Israel/Hamas war in terms of how broadly it draws in other participants.  For now, diplomatic efforts – negotiating for the release of hostages, calls for a cease fire, bringing humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza – have toned down the severity of the fighting.  Concurrently, Israel is softening up the opposition by bombing of targets thought to be Hamas military strongholds and the markets are anticipating the launch of a ground war.

 

Even with the conflict entering its 20th day and seeing how commodities have already reacted in that time, the start of ground fighting and/or a broadening of participants would likely see sharper moves in particular futures contracts, i.e., gains in energies, flight-to-quality upward movement in gold and the Swiss franc and even food-related commodities like wheat.  Conversely, equity index futures – U.S. and more broadly – will be vulnerable to draw-downs.  Note that the E-mini Nasdaq already fell into correction territory on Wednesday following the latest tech earnings.

 

Financials: 

 

One instrument at a potential cross-roads – it’s current 6-month / ±$11K per contract decline a dominant catalyst for dragging shares around the world to multi-month lows – is the 10-year T-note futures contract.  Its correspondent benchmark yield is hovering at a 15-yr high of 5%.  Already vulnerable to information on the pace of the U.S. economy, the conflict uncertainty poses a new agitator to the market.

 

Crypto:

 

After trading down to 3-year lows below 15,000 last October, on Tuesday, Bitcoin futures traded through 35,000, a 17-month high, a ±$10,000 move for a Micro Bitcoin futures contract (contract size: 1/50 Bitcoin), a ±$100,000 for the “adult” / Bitcoin futures contract (contract size: 5 Bitcoin).

 

Softs: 

 

With new all-time highs being set all year – almost weekly – orange juice futures (basis Nov.) are poised to break through $4.00/lb. (contract size: 15,000 lbs, 1 cent = $150), more than double its ±$1.85 levels in January, a ±$32,000 per contract move.  Florida orange growers harvested their smallest crop in nearly 90 years, the result of an ill-timed freeze, two hurricanes and the citrus psyllid, a tiny invasive winged insect that has spread citrus greening disease and is laying waste to Florida’s groves.

What Changed? + Futures Trading Levels for Oct. 25th

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

What Changed??

The past two weeks have seen very choppy price action especially in stock indices futures, with sudden and sharp swings from highs and lows.

This contrasts with the smoother and steadier price action we witnessed before the terrible October 7 attack on Israel. As a trader, you need to evaluate the market conditions and the instruments you are trading, and how they respond to geopolitical events and overall market rhythm and price action.

You also need to adapt and be alert to what is changing, because what worked six weeks ago may need some adjustment in order for it to work for the next six weeks. Day trading is challenging, and many times price movement is just noise in a trending or non-trending environment. Some people try to use order flow to get clues and capture a small part of the market, while others trade based on the news and overall market feel.

In my opinion, using counter trend techniques and respecting the VWAP has been more effective in these past two weeks than other methods. Plan your trade, trade your plan!

Last day of the month tomorrow.

PCE and a few other reports are out.

Nasdaq 100 ( NQ and MNQ) sitting on decision levels in my opinion.

A break below 14720 can trigger a visit to the 14220 area. A close above 14930 can open the door for an oversold rally towards the 15300 area.

See daily chart below.
