Trading Resource of the Week – Tight Stops or Wide Stops?

 

Entry Signals Are Very Important But Just As Important If Not More Is Trade Management.

By: Ilan Levy-Mayer, Cannon Trading Commodities Broker & VP
This article was published on FinanceMagnates.com back a couple years ago but is definitely a timeless article.
Today I decided to touch more on an educational feature rather than provide a certain market outlook. Many of my clients and blog readers know that when it comes to short term trading I am a fan of adjusting your trading technique/ game plan according to your assessment of the type of trading day that is developing in front of you.
Many new and advanced traders spend HOURS on looking for entry signals. Back testing historical data, creating algorithms to use and much more. I know. I am one of these traders.
Trade management consists of many factors. Some are psychological and some are more mathematical and many are in between. Some of the basic elements of trade management before even entering the trade are: What will my stop loss be**? will i use a stop loss**? What will my target be? will I use a target or just trail the trade if it goes my way?
Hot market of the week is provided by QT Market Center, A swiss army knife charting package that’s not just for Hedgers, Cooperatives and Farmers alike but also for Spread traders, Swing traders and shorter time frame application for intraday traders with a unique proprietary indicator that can be applied to your specific trading needs.
November unleaded gasoline The rally in Nov unleaded completed second upside PriceCount objective and developed a sideways/ rangebound trading action. If the market can breakout to the upside , it can project a run to the 3rd objective at 2.77 level
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.

Quadruple Witching + Levels for Sept. 15th 2023

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

What you need to know before trading futures on Sept. 15th

by Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker:

 

For those of you trading stock index futures and options, remember that tomorrow is Last Trading Day for the September stock index futures contracts and their quarterly options.  At 8:30 A.M., Central Time, the September contracts will stop trading and the CME will post a settlement price which will serve to offset any open September futures positions.  It will also determine the status of the contracts’ options – whether they’re in or out of the money.  Note that this does not apply to Friday Week-3 options tied to the December futures contracts.  Those expire at their usual afternoon time.

 

Tomorrow is nicknamed quadruple witching which refers to the simultaneous expiration of not only stock index futures and options, but also stock options and single-stock futures, which actually ceased trading in 2020 – and was never a much of asset class in the U.S. since their arrival in 2002. 

 

The new front month for the major stock index futures contracts is now December.

 

For currency futures traders, Monday is an even more important date on the calendar.  It’s also Last Trading Day for these futures contracts, however these contracts are true deliverables.  Instead of receiving a settlement price with which your open positions will be offset, your open long or short positions will be exchanged for actual cash-based positions in the type of currency your position represents.  For example, if you hold a single September British Pound futures contract through Last Trading Day, you will be assigned a short cash position of futures contract’s value of 62,500£, the current U.S. dollar value of which is ±$77,500.

 

The long and short of it (pun intended), keep a very close eye on the calendar and steer well clear of becoming contractually obligated to deliver or take delivery of a futures contract’s underlying asset.

 

If you have any questions regarding any of the futures contracts you’re trading and those important dates n the calendar, reach out to your broker at Cannon Trading Co. 

Rollover is here for stock indices. i.e., the E-mini and Micro S&P, Nasdaq, Dow Jones and Russell 2000

 

Volume in the September contracts will begin to drop off until their expiration Friday, September 15th (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 September futures contracts through 8:30 A.M., Central Time on Friday, Sept. 15th, they will be offset with the cash settlement price, as set by the exchange.

 Monday, September 18th is Last Trading Day for September currency futures. It is of the utmost importance for currency traders to exit all September futures contracts by Friday, September 15th and to start trading the December futures. Currency futures are DELIVERABLE contracts.

The month code for December is ‘Z.’  Please consider carefully how you place orders when changing over.

The Week Ahead: Will CPI alter your trading strategy?

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

On the earnings front two additional AI equity plays report this week, both after their respective close. Oracle today is expecting a $1.14 per share increase (10.7% YoY) and Adobe on Thursday. Wallstreet analysts are expecting ADBE to report +3.98 per share (+17.0% YoY) These two earning factors could create directional change in the indices on the days following the releases. The Government reports being released this week could alter the course of the Fed’s short term interest rate decision making come September 20th.

The Fed has publicly stated in recent interviews and statements that the current string of rate increases used to assist in curbing inflation may be drawing to a close however, they will wait and see what the upcoming inflation numbers reveal. If the next two CPI reports show inflation running hot, especially in the service and shelter categories that the Fed is watching closely, then the chance of a November hike could increase.

The Fed Funds Futures (ZQU23) Market is assigning a 93 % probability that the Fed will not raise during the Sep 20 meeting. This viewpoint could change significantly after several important reports will be released this week. Circle your calendars for Wednesday the 13th @ 7:30 A.M. CDT for CP and Thursday the 14th @7:30 A.M. CDT for 3 numbers: PPI final, Retail sales and Jobless claims. Finally on Friday @8:15 A.M. CDT for Industrial Production.

Expectations for CPI from Econoday.com are: Core prices in August are expected to hold steady and modest at a monthly increase of 0.2 percent to match July’s as-expected 0.2 percent increase. Yet overall prices, reflecting food and energy, are expected to rise 0.6 percent after July’s 0.2 percent increase which was also as expected. Annual rates, which in July were 3.2 percent overall and 4.7 percent for the core, are expected at 3.6 and 4.4 percent respectively.

What is CPI (Consumer Price Index)? is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a representative basket of consumer goods and services. The CPI measures inflation as experienced by consumers in their day-to-day living expenses.

Scope: Urban Consumers How the data is obtained: Survey of Business, Survey of Households. Sample sizes : CPI Survey collects about 94,000 prices and 8,000 rental housing unit quotes each month.

Navigating Online Commodities Trading: The Role of Commodity Brokers and the Cannon Trading Advantage

Read more about commodities trading with Cannon Trading Company here.

Commodity trading has long been a cornerstone of global markets, providing investors with the opportunity to participate in the fluctuating prices of essential raw materials, from precious metals like gold and silver to agricultural products such as wheat and soybeans. In the modern era, the advent of online commodities trading has democratized access to these markets, making it possible for traders of all backgrounds to engage in commodity trading from the comfort of their homes or offices. However, to embark on a successful online commodities trading venture, one needs the guidance and support of a reputable commodity broker. Cannon Trading Company, with its 35 years in business, multiple awards, and a stellar TrustPilot rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars, stands as a prime example of what traders should seek in a commodity broker.

 

Understanding Commodity Brokers and Online Commodities Trading

  1. Commodity Brokers: Commodity brokers are intermediaries or professionals who facilitate the buying and selling of commodity futures contracts on behalf of their clients. They play a pivotal role in ensuring that traders have access to the commodities markets, receive efficient execution of their trades, and benefit from valuable insights and expertise.
  2. Commodity Trading: Commodity trading involves speculating on the future price movements of various physical goods or raw materials. These goods can be classified into categories such as energy commodities (e.g., crude oil), agricultural commodities (e.g., corn), and precious metals (e.g., gold). Traders can profit from price fluctuations by entering into futures contracts, which obligate them to buy or sell the underlying commodity at a predetermined price on a specified future date.
  3. Online Commodities Trading: The advent of online trading platforms has revolutionized commodity trading. Traders can access these platforms through commodity brokerage firms and execute trades in real-time. Online commodities trading offers convenience, accessibility, and a wide array of trading tools and resources.

Choosing the right commodity broker is pivotal to the success of your online commodities trading venture. Here are key factors to consider when evaluating a commodity broker:

  1. Experience and Reputation: A commodity broker with a solid track record and reputation is essential. Look for firms with years of experience in the industry and a history of satisfied clients.
  2. Range of Commodities: Ensure that the broker provides access to a diverse range of commodities, including energy, agricultural, and precious metals. This allows you to diversify your portfolio and explore different markets.
  3. Trading Tools: Evaluate the trading tools and platforms offered by the broker. These should be user-friendly, offer real-time data, and support advanced analysis techniques. A reliable platform can significantly enhance your trading experience.
  4. Customer Support: Effective customer support is crucial in commodities trading. You should be able to reach out to the broker’s support team quickly and receive prompt assistance, especially in times of market volatility.
  5. Educational Resources: Look for brokers that offer educational resources such as webinars, seminars, market analysis, and trading guides. These resources can help you improve your trading skills and make informed decisions.
  6. Fees and Commissions: Understand the fee structure of the broker, including commissions and spreads. Compare these fees to ensure they align with your trading budget and objectives.
  7. Regulation and Security: Verify that the broker is regulated by relevant authorities. Regulatory compliance is a sign of a trustworthy broker. Additionally, ensure that the broker’s online trading platform is secure and employs encryption to protect your data and transactions.

December soybean oil slowed its rally last months against the fall high and corrected. Now, the chart has recovered and is poised for another challenge of the fall and July highs. If we can break out to the upside with new sustained highs, we have a first upside PriceCount projection to the 68.51 area to aim for.

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
