“A Recipe for a much Different Trading Day”
We have a full day of reports tomorrow, including FOMC MINUTES. that should be a recipe for a much different trading day than we had today.
I would categorize today’s session, as lower volume, lower volatility but yet wide enough ranges on the stock indices to produce different set ups to go with the reversal trend. If I had to guess for tomorrow session, I would guess higher volatility with swings in both direction. Knowing what type of trading day you are in early enough or the type of personality the market is having on any certain trading day is HUGE in my opinion as different types of trading days require different approaches/ methods and trading style.
GOOD TRADING!
