Housing Data week

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

A full week of trading!

Before I get into the market moving events for the week I would be remiss if I didn’t mention holiday light volume going into this weekends 3 day weekend. The best times to trade will be around the openings and closings while sprinkling in a few post report time frames.

The Housing market and GDP highlight this weeks market movers. Tuesday 7:30 am CST Housing Starts. Wednesday Existing home sales @9:00 am CST And Friday , same time New Home Sales.

 

Smattered in between we have Consumer Confidence On Wed @ 9 AM CDT , GDP on Thursday @ 7:30 CDT PREMARKET, this should be a big mover if it’s off the mark. Friday two more premarket numbers that could create the last volatility for the day and exhaust the energy for the week in the equity markets, they are Durable goods orders and personal income both at 7:30 CDT and will give the FED more information relative to efficacy of their current fed policy objectives.

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!!

WYNTK for October 11th…

Market Volatility to remain this week. Please mark these times in your trading calendar. I always begin the week with a review of the scheduled economic data releases. This week, the fuel for volatility will be provided by what I consider to be 4 of the top five most impactful, market moving reports highlighting inflationary trends. First, on Wednesday at 7:30 am CDT PPI Final Demand consensus from Econoday.com is :

Producer prices have been cooling, edging 0.1 percent lower at the

headline level in August and rising only 0.2 percent when excluding food

and energy. September’s expectations are up 0.2 percent overall and up

0.3 percent for the core.

FOMC minutes of the most recent Fed Meeting will be released on Wednesday at 1:00PM CDT

This is the big one CPI Thursday 7:30 am CDT consensus from Econoday.com :

Core prices surged 0.6 percent in August with noticeable slowing to 0.4

percent expected for September. Overall prices are expected to rise 0.2

percent after August’s 0.1 percent gain. Annual rates are seen at 8.1

percent overall and 6.5 percent which would compare with 8.3 and 6.3

percent in August.

And finally, released at the same time, Jobless Claims Jobless claims for the October 8 week are expected to come in at 225,000 versus 219,000 in the prior week.

Be careful out there and please reduce position size during periods of likely , higher volatility . As always, plan your trade and trade your plan. Please contact your broker or Cannon Trading with any questions.

Bullet Points: Hot off the FOMC Meeting

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

Financials: for the third time in as many Federal Open Market Committee meetings, the twelve voting members unanimously approved a 0.75% rate increase for the benchmark federal funds rate – the overnight rate on lending between banks. With this the fifth consecutive rate increase from near 0% in March and the steepest rise since the 1980’s, not since 2008 has the fed. funds rate been set to this level. With two more FOMC meetings scheduled for the remainder of the year, the full 19-member committee signaled fed. funds are projected to continue their upward trajectory with 4.25% to 4.50% the expected target by year’s end.

The Federal Reserve also announced a program of reducing stimulus by shrinking its $8.8 trillion asset portfolio through attrition. As debt securities mature – to the tune of ±$95 billion a month – the Fed reduces its holdings by up to $95 billion a month.

Of course, all this is the Federal Reserve’s effort to quell inflation, the annual forecast of which officials revised up for the third time to 4.5% (core rate). “Inflation is running too hot. You don’t need to know much more than that,” said FOMC chairman Jerome Powell in his post-announcement news conference.

 

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