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.
With algorithmic trading systems becoming more prevalent in portfolio diversification, the following system has been selected as the broker’s choice for this month.
The performance shown above is hypothetical in that the chart represents 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 back adjusted data.

July Oats finally stabilized their slide last month and then activated upside PriceCount objectives on the correction higher. Chart is satisfied its first count to $3.81 where it would be normal to get a near-term reaction in a form of consolidation or corrective trade. If you can sustain for the strength from here, the second count would project the possible run to the $4.10 area

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.

I personally start trading September this Monday when the volume on September is higher than the June.
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.
Monday, June 19th is Last Trading Day for June currency futures. It is of the utmost importance for currency traders to exit all June futures contracts by Friday, June 16th and to start trading the September futures. Currency futures are DELIVERABLE contracts.
The month code for September is ‘U.’ Please consider carefully how you place orders when changing over.

Trading Pattern: Rising Wedge also known as Ascending Triangle
By Joe Easton, Senior Broker
Formation:
This pattern is defined as price narrowing from a wider range to a smaller range while making higher highs and higher lows.
This pattern is a bearish reversal signal suggesting a possible minor retracement or potential trend change.
Typically new highs are seen on lower volume.
Try a FREE demo of the platform used to show the charts in this educational article. The platform is FREE and has charts, news, DOM, T&S, Alerts, advanced order entry, options and MUCH MORE!
As provided in the examples above the range is narrowing toward the top of the wedge, while still making new highs. This causes a converging of trendlines to make the triangle pointing upward. Ideally this pattern breaks the lower trendline between 65-75% of completion. If the price action continues to the end of the triangle the breakout becomes less likely. Ascending triangles can also be continuation signals in a downtrend, although they have a lower probability.
How to Trade:
The ideal entry is toward the top trendline near the 60% level, this gives you a better position inside the triangle. If entered on this line your stop should be above the upper trendline.
The more conservative entry would be when the lower trendline is broken. This can happen very quickly and needs to be timed more accurately. Using the lower trendline entry the stop is placed above the lower trendline before re-entering the wedge. If the price trades back into the wedge after breaking, the pattern has less likely chance of success. Ideally when the lower trendline is broken price accelerates quickly lower.
When price breaks out you can measure the triangle at the widest section and project price to reach that same distance from the lower trendline.
Summary:
Ascending Triangles can be strong trading patterns provided the formation remains in tact. Unlike many other patterns when an ugly formation can actually be beneficial, this pattern is much more precise. Any closes above the upper trendline or below the lower trendline should continue in that direction. The price action needs to remain inside the trendlines and breakout before the end to maximize the chance of success.
Important: Trading commodity futures and options involves a substantial risk of loss.

July unleaded gasoline satisfied its first upside PriceCount Objective and appears to be entering a corrective trade, which is a normal reaction. From here, if chart can sustain further upside it would have to contend with the April highs before it can reach the second count to 2.80 .

The June dollar Index satisfied its second upside PriceCount objective and is correcting. At this point, if the chart can resume its rally with new sustained highs, the third count would project a run to the 106.50 area although the March highs would represent a significant near term resistance level to contend with.

July copper collapsed to a new low for the move where the chart has met its second downside PriceCount objective. It would be normal to get a near term reaction in the form of a consolidation or corrective trade upon completing the objective. At this point, IF the chart can sustain further weakness, the third count would project a run to the 3.54 area.

Important Notices – FOMC this week with statement and rate decision due Wednesday
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!!

Important Notices – Goodbye Eurodollar
Heads up traders:
Today we say goodbye to a commodity that for ±20 years starting in the early 2000’s held the title of largest open interest futures contract in the world: the Eurodollar. Long the benchmark for hedging short-interest rates, it is being replaced today by the Three-Month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Futures.
SOFR measures the cost of borrowing U.S. dollar cash overnight using Treasury securities as collateral. SOFR has been recommended by the U.S. Federal Reserve’s Alternative Reference Rate Committee (ARRC) and SOFR looks set to become the main indicator of U.S. dollar interest rates around the world as global regulators encourage market participants to transition to SOFR.
CME Group launched SOFR-based futures in 2018 to support the transition. Starting today, any Eurodollar exposure where the start date is beyond June 30, 2023, will automatically convert to the corresponding CME SOFR. For more information regarding the conversion process, please visit the CME Group web site.

Important Notices – Good Friday Schedule and NFP Report
Heads up traders. This coming Friday, April 7th will be somewhat of an irregularity. It is a trading holiday (Good Friday) and simultaneously the first Friday of the month, when the Labor Department will release its monthly Non-farm payrolls report.
While the major CME Group futures markets with 4:00 P.M. Central Time closings will finish the week’s trading at that regular time on Thursday, June 5th, at the regular 6:00 P.M. start of trading, energy, grains and metals will remain closed. Only interest rate, equities, currencies and cryptocurrencies will open and will close early Friday morning as follows:
Interest rate: 10:15 A.M. Central Time
Equities: 8:15 A.M.
Currencies: 10:15 A.M.
Cryptocurrencies: 10:15 A.M.
This will give some of the most actively traded and report-sensitive instruments only a limited amount of time to react to what is widely considered to be one of the most important and influential measures of the U.S. economy – on a day that will likely see reduced volume.

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

With algorithmic trading systems becoming more prevalent in portfolio diversification, the following system has been selected as the broker’s choice for this month.
The performance shown above is hypothetical in that the chart represents 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 back adjusted data.
