Dear Traders,

Starting June 28, 2021, CME Group has removed the trading halt between 3:15 and 3:30 p.m. CT on CME Globex for Equity Index products.

This enhancement will allow market participants to access liquidity continuously throughout the trading day and manage event risk that occurs during the trading session with greater ease.

Tomorrow is also the last trading day of the month!

Last trading days and first trading days of the months will at times have unique characteristics. Possible larger moves, sharper turns, higher volume.

Large traders/ funds will try to “close the books for the month”, book profits or losses etc.

Do you homework, go over notes from your journal, study the charts from prior last/ first trading days and be prepared.

Dear Traders,

Starting today, June 28, 2021, CME Group has removed the trading halt between 3:15 and 3:30 p.m. CT on CME Globex for Equity Index products.

This enhancement will allow market participants to access liquidity continuously throughout the trading day and manage event risk that occurs during the trading session with greater ease.

Subject to regulatory review and effective June 28, 2021, CME and CBOT will eliminate the 3:15 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Central Time (CT) trading halt on CME Globex which currently exists for certain Equity futures and options contracts.

The halt was initially implemented to account for transactions conducted via open outcry in the trading pits and is therefore no longer necessary.

June is almost over and just like that next week is 4th of July and the beginning of what we consider “summer trading”…

Summer trading USUALLY = less volume, narrower ranges but also larger moves on certain reports.

Below is a video I put together a few years ago on trading using overbought and oversold conditions – still very valid in m opinion.

Trading 201: Trading Futures Spreads – Basic But Important Strategy

“A Basic And Important Strategy For Commodities Traders Using Spread Trading.”

By: Mark O’Brien, Cannon Trading Commodities Broker

Over my 20+ year career as a commodities broker, I have studied and traded a wide range of approaches to trading the futures markets. From candlestick formations to the commodity channel index, from condors to turtle trading, there’s an enormous catalog of tools and methods available for traders to consider.

One method I have noticed is surprisingly underrepresented among retail traders is futures spread trading, where a single position in the market consists of the simultaneous purchase of one futures contract and sale of a related futures contract as a unit. I call it surprising because some of the most invested players in futures trading – and arguably the most sophisticated – include large speculators and commercial firms who regularly employ spreads. This includes traders in the markets who often actually buy and sell the physical commodities we trade. Farmers, ranchers and other food growers along with food producers, petroleum companies who either drill for oil or natural gas or refine these products – or both, financial institutions with enormous holdings in treasuries, equities or currencies, mining interests and their buyers – all these areas of production and distribution employ spreads from time to time as an important aspect of their businesses. Indeed, spread trading is a fundamental and essential part of the commodities futures markets.

At the same time, despite the remarkable increase in interest and in the growth in the volume of the futures markets over the years, spread trading is typically dismissed by most other traders in search of a trading strategy. With so much attention focused on other approaches related to straightforward directional trading (and within that category, day-trading) it’s not difficult to see how spread trading can be overlooked.
