E-Mini: Dow, Nasdaq, S&P 500; Jobs Report, July Hogs: Your 5 Important Need-To-Knows for Trading Futures on June 5th, 2025

What to Know Before Trading Futures on June 5th

Key points for tomorrow: E-Mini, Jobs Report

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

U.S. stock index futures traded on both sides of the flatline into today’s close of trading with a lack of progress on tariff negotiations and economic data suggesting the uncertainty was taking a toll.

E-Mini

e-mini

At this typing, the E-mini S&P 500 index traded near unchanged, while the E-mini Dow Jones contract dipped ±100 pts and the E-mini Nasdaq pushed up ±67 pts.

Trade News

President Donald Trump stated he expected a call with Chinese leader Xi Jinping this week to discuss trade, though he also suggested it might be an uphill battle. Investors would welcome any thaw in trade relations with China, one of the U.S.’s largest trading partners.

Jobs Report

Meanwhile, investors also await the Labor Department’s monthly jobs report this Friday. The report could be a barometer of how much, if any, businesses are delaying hiring due to tariffs.

On Wednesday, payroll processor ADP said private-sector firms added just 37,000 workers in May, the lowest since March 2023, and well below Wall Street’s expectations of 115,000 workers. April’s tally was also revised down. ADP’s report is sometimes seen as a harbinger of the official government release, though it often misses the mark.

Also on Wednesday, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Trump’s tax bill will increase deficits by $2.4 trillion over the next decade. Investors and analysts have warned that elevated deficits will lead to higher interest rates, since the U.S. government will need to pay more to attract investors to buy its debt.

Meanwhile, a closely-watched gauge of business activity in the service sector fell below the line that separates growth from contraction in April. ISM’s Services Purchasing Managers Index was at 49.9 in May, the lowest in a year, and a reminder of the impact of trade war uncertainty.

July Hogs:

July hogs are challenging their contract highs. The chart has upside PriceCounts in place where a breakout into new sustained highs would project a possible run to the first count to the 112.28 area.

What to Know Before Trading Futures on May 22nd; Your 4 Important Need-To-Knows for Equity Indexes, Financials, Crypto

What to Know Before Trading Futures on May 22nd

Key Points for Tomorrow

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

futures

Equity Indexes / Interest Rates:

Stock index futures turned lower this afternoon after a disappointing Treasury bond auction accelerated a selloff in the debt market.

The June E-mini Dow Jones futures contract dropped over 800 points, more than 2.0%, leading the E-mini S&P 500 and E-mini Nasdaq indexes lower in afternoon trading.

Financials:

U.S. 30-yr. T-bond and 10-yr. T-note futures also sold off and correspondingly debt yields spiked, with the 10-yr. rate climbing toward 4.6% and the 30-yr. rate eclipsing 5.0%

Yields extended gains in the afternoon after a $16 billion auction of 20-year Treasury bonds attracted relatively soft demand from investors, selling at a higher yield than traders had anticipated.

The selloff in stocks followed earnings reports from retailers Target, Lowe’s and TJX. Target cut its annual outlook.

Crypto:

Bitcoin futures climbed to a new all-time high for the first time since January. The current front-month May futures contract traded intraday up to 110,745 before paring its gains. Bitcoin futures total open interest surged to a record $75 billion, signaling heightened leveraged exposure as traders are eyeing a breakout above a key $108,000 resistance level. The CME Group / Chicago Mercantile Exchange leads with $17.43 billion in open interest. Within the highly leveraged environment, the potential for liquidations of short positions becomes a powerful force that could propel Bitcoin futures to new highs.

Zero-Day Options: 6 Strong Advantages Over Traditional Day Trading

Posted on April 10, 2025April 14, 2025 by Jenny Collins

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

0DTE Options

Options 3

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

Options

Zero-day options are normal options — puts and calls — that expire in less than one day, hence the “0DTE” nickname (short for “zero days to expiration”).

In the current high-volatility environment we’re experiencing – one very likely to last awhile – one of the better alternatives to day trading, particularly in stock index futures like the E-mini S&P 500, E-mini Nasdaq, etc., is buying short-term call and put options.

With expirations every day of the week, stock index futures options can be purchased with minimal overall time value and give you a maximum risk coupled with a limitless upside potential.

Especially with markets seemingly hair-triggered to make large daily moves, but with erratic action intraday, the purchase of a limited-risk option provides staying power that no amount of rapid in-and-out trading trying to catch a large move can outperform.

In times of Volatility, Avoid These 7 Costly Mistakes During 3000+ Point Dow Jones Days

Posted on April 9, 2025April 14, 2025 by Jenny Collins

Extreme Volatility + CPI Tomorrow

volatile

By Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

Dow Jones & other indices

As of this typing stock index futures and other futures contracts have experienced single-day range moves not seen in years and after being down, finished up:

→ E-mini Dow Jones: UP +3044 points / 8.4%

→ E-mini S&P 500: UP +480 points / 9.5%

→ E-mini Nasdaq: UP +2038 points / 11.71%

→ Crude Oil: UP +320 points / 5.2%

Volatility is skyrocketing.

This is a completely different environment of extreme trading volatility than what we were trading in 3-4 weeks ago. Markets are evolving and you must adapt your trading to changing market conditions.

This is where you find out what kind of risk taker you are; brash, overbold, unheeding, or prudent, attentive, discriminating. Everyone possesses these traits – and they influence our decision-making differently in different situations.

In trading, if the historical price moves you’re seeing bring out the daredevil in you, plan to watch your trade results all over the place: up and down more than your everyday swings with the odds increasing your account will hit a wall.

Instead, incorporate patience and prudence. Start your trading by setting daily profit targets and daily loss limits and stick to them. Do that for each trade. These days, be aware of LIMIT moves and understand what happens when the market halts at limit levels.

Find daily price limits for CME Group Agricultural, Cryptocurrency, Energy, Equity Index, Interest Rates, and Metals products: click here.

June Dollar Index

The June dollar has had a short term correction after extending its break to the third downside PriceCount objective. IF the chart can resume its slide with new sustained lows, it would have the contract low to contend with before a possible run to the low percentage fourth count to the 98.85 area.

Market Update: Copper Prices Rise Amid Economic Uncertainty

Posted on March 26, 2025March 31, 2025 by Jenny Collins

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

Market Highlights – NASDAQ, Copper

nasdaq

by Mark O’Brien, Senior Broker

Indexes – Nasdaq

Stock index futures dipped today, led lower as pressure on the tariff front mounted. The June E-mini S&P 500 Futures contract lost ±1.4%, while the E-mini Dow traded ±250 points lower, or 0.6%. The E-mini Nasdaq shed about 2%.

Stock index futures hit session lows after the White House said that President Donald Trump will unveil new tariffs on auto imports during a press conference at 4 p.m. ET. This will come ahead of a broad array of additional levies expected to be revealed next week.

Grains:

Discover new tools for planting season ahead of key reports. The upcoming Prospective Plantings report can significantly impact market prices, especially if the actual numbers differ from pre-release estimates. New Weekly options on crops such as Corn, Soybean, Soybean Meal, Soybean Oil and Chicago Wheat offer more precise risk management around the report’s release.

Micro Corn futures, Micro Wheat futures, Micro Soybean futures, Micro Soybean Meal futures and Micro Soybean Oil futures were launched on February 24, 2025, with the first weeks of trading already providing meaningful liquidity.

Financially settled Micro Agricultural futures allow customers to stay in their position closer to expiration, with no risk of physical delivery.

New Micro Agricultural futures are a tool for retail traders looking to gain exposure to commodity markets without incurring the risk of physical delivery and with less margin costs than standard Agricultural futures.

Small- to medium-size farmers can take advantage of Micro Agricultural futures to hedge parts of their expected harvest, without having to rely on standard Grains futures contracts of 5,000 bushels (according to the USDA, the average farm in the U.S. consists of 464 acres).

Metals – Copper

On December 31st, March copper futures settled at 4.0265.  Today, they were trading at about 5.22; an increase of about 30% in the first three months of the year and a 5+ year high.  This dramatic price action is driven by traders pricing in the possibility of hefty tariffs on the crucial industrial metal. The price gap between U.S. copper futures and the global benchmark on the London Metal Exchange has widened to record levels, creating a powerful incentive for traders to shift copper into the United States.

Triple Witching Friday; Powerful Market Shift! 3 Crucial Facts About Triple Witching Friday

Posted on March 20, 2025 by Jenny Collins

9dc1e02e d5f7 4ff4 abf7 1df60775f196

Triple Witching!

triple witching

Triple Witching tomorrow!

Stock Index March contracts (i.e., the E-mini and Micro S&P, Nasdaq, Dow Jones and Russell 2000.) expire Friday, March 21st (8:30 A.M., Central Time). At that point, trading these contracts halts. Stock index futures are CASH SETTLED contracts. If you hold any March futures contracts through 8:30 A.M., Central Time on Friday, they will be offset with the cash settlement price, as set by the exchange.

Triple Witching!

FRONT MONTH IS NOW JUNE, the symbol is M25, example for MICRO mini SP is MESM25

Things to know about Triple Witching

A “triple witching,” is NOT without risk for holders of futures and futures option contracts.

A triple witching is the simultaneous expiration of stock options, index futures, and index futures options that occurs four times a year.

The first triple witching of 2025 will take place this Friday. Futures Stock indices and futures Options cease to allow trading at the opening bell of the Cash Stock market and settle, NOT to the final traded price at that time but, at a fixed settlement price based on where all the stocks making up the index have opened, this becomes the cash settled price for those contracts not offset prior to the trading halt.

Triple Witching!

Bloomberg Commodity Index

The Bloomberg Commodity Index is a basket of 24 commodities spread across energy, grains, softs, livestock, industrial and precious metals. The weekly chart has developed a 2-year sideways range of trade. IF the chart can break out to the topside, there are upside PriceCount objectives in place which suggest that this index would have significant potential to run.

Movers & Shakers by John Thorpe, Senior Broker

Nasdaq

Movers and Shakers: Volatile Day Ahead, Full of Reports

President Trump addressing joint session of congress this evening @ 9 PM Eastern, 6 PM Pacific

Market volatility is here to stay for the foreseeable future, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 sliding downward at a serious clip.

Choose your opportunities wisely. Don’t miss out on the market news highlights of the day recap below!

Nasdaq, S&P 500

The S&P 500 experienced an 114-point slide ($5700 per contract) The market has continued to recover from the initial losses and look to close in – 50-point range near 5820.00 basis the March contract. The Nasdaq, after taking a drubbing down over 400 points earlier in the session, was running as positive as up 200. As, the Nasdaq is virtually unchanged now as of this typing while the DOW looks to subtract over .1% into the 43000 area.

Tariff concerns creating a lack of confidence in the US Dollar as a safe-haven currency has pushed thru support at 106.00 looking to close in the 105.70 area for the first time since December 10th. The Grain markets should have been lower by much more than they were, Soybeans down 14 cents, Wheat down 11 and Corn down 4 /12 cents, if the dollar were stronger today, our old crop supply is getting cheaper by the day.

Crude oil, after experiencing a $1.70 range will be closing near unchanged around the 68.40 area basis the April contract just .70 lower than one week ago.

Econ Data: ADP, S&P Global Svcs. PMI, Factory orders, ISM Svcs. PMI, EIA Crude Inventories, Beige Book

FED Speak: Quiet

Earnings: Quiet

May Soybeans

May soybeans activated downside PriceCount objectives off the February recovery peak and accelerated to the second objective. It would be normal to get a near term reacion from this level in the form of a consolidation or corrective trade. IF the chart can sustain further weakness, the third count would project a slide to the 9.73 area. The trade below the January reactionary low formally negated the remaining unmet upside objectives.
