Trading For 26th June

Posted 06-27-2008 at 12:00 AM by jasont
Here is my journal from 26th June:

As if having the Fed announcement wasn't enough for the rest of this week we have the existing home sales at 10am today hehe. It is the only important news for the day so once it is out of the way I suspect we can get into arranging ourselves after the Fed announcement.

The overnight market has seen a sharp decline which could be the decision made by the market after yesterdays news. I won't place a bias on what I have seen in the...

Trading For 25th June

Posted 06-25-2008 at 11:53 PM by jasont
Here is my journal from 25th June:

Big Fed Day! The announcement on rates won't affect me directly in the morning but I suspect we will see hesitation to make any major moves prior to the announcement. We do have the new home sales numbers at 10am so that will be a caution point in the morning. Again I wouldn't suspect a big move around that time but I won't rule it out.

The overnight market has seen a rise and we will open with a gap possibly around 7 points. If it...

Trading For 24th June

Here is my journal from 24th June:

We have the Consumer Confidence numbers at 10am today so it will be important to be cautious around that time. It will no doubt give a bit of guidance to the market on what the Fed might do tomorrow. We have seen a reasonable decline from the market overnight which puts us at a gap down. It looks like it may be less than 6 points so there is a possible trade for my simulation. The overnight market has found some support at 1307-1308 which is near...
