S&P 500 Emini Day Trading Gap Thursday January 21, 2010

S&P Emini 500 Futures started Wednesday's trading with a gap down of 8.25 points, and the gap remained unfilled at the end of the day.  Trading on the day took the index through 13 points to the downside before retracing about 70% of the decline.  The morning sell off was high volume, but the retracement came with less volume over a longer time period.  Tomorrow may yield high volatility with unemployment claims pre market, and big market movers reporting earnings, GOOG and GS, among others.  Today's down action came on 66% higher than average volume, a bearish signal.  The bulk of the day's trading was inside yesterday's bullish action, so net market movement is sideways.  Prices are still teetering in overbought territory, with a much anticipated down turn possible.  On longer term charts, such as the weekly, the market is still very much in an uptrend.

forex trading course - EURUSD dollar strength 2 days in a row

The USD has climbed for a second consecutive day as negative sentiment continued to weigh heavy on risk appetite. Equity markets in Europe have struggled, and after EURUSD broke through downside support at 1.4250 overnight, the pair has continued to trade heavily, touching lows of 1.4126. In parallel, gold has broke through its near term support level of $1130 to trade down to $1120.45, but we expect prior buying interest at $1119 to provide some respite to the sell-off. [caption id="attachment_343" align="alignleft" width="202" caption="Forex trading course jan 20 dollar strength"][/caption] During the morning session, the UK ILO unemployment rate surprisingly fell to 7.8% (exp: 8.0%, prev: 7.9%), but the GBP failed to find much buying interest on this news. Also released were the minutes of the recent BoE meeting; as expected, there was a unanimous 9-0 vote to keep rates on hold and maintain the asset purchase target at GBP200bn. Furthermore, the statement explained that recent developments had not substantially changed the BoE's view on the medium term outlook, and instead, they would wait until the release of the February Inflation Report to get a clearer assessment of the factors affecting the economy. During the afternoon, Canadian CPI disappointed at -0.3% MoM (-0.1% expected, 0.5% prior), forcing USDCAD to push through 1.0450 resistance, touching a high of 1.0487. US housing starts and building permits were mixed on the whole, but the net result has seen further USD buying into the USequity market open. Tomorro [...]

Forex trading - EURUSD dollar strenght live trading room Jan 19

The USD has made gains against its major counterparts today as risk appetite was burdened by poor economic news and a dovish BoC statement. The headline event of the European morning was UK CPI which surged an alarming 0.6% MoM, 2.9% YoY in December; up from last month's 0.3% MoM, 1.9% YoY rise. Although potentially suggesting higher borrowing costs may have to be implemented to ward off an overshoot in inflation, the spike is in line with the BoE's forecasts in the Quarterly Inflation Report last November; and according to the path predicted in that scenario, inflation is expected to fall back towards target in the coming months. GBPUSD, which has rebounded strongly from its 1.5833 lows on 30th Dec, surged to 1.6459 after the release, but the rally failed to gather much momentum and the pair subsequently succumbed to the bout of USD strength, touching a low of 1.6313 before recovering somewhat to 1.6370 levels. The other major release of the morning session was Germany's ZEW survey, which showed investor sentiment fell more than expected in January to 47.4 (49.5 expected, 50.4 prior), causing EURUSD to slump below its 200 day moving average (around 1.4293), touching lows of 1.4262. So far, the major support of 1.4250 remains intact, but a closing break below there would open up further downside to 1.4000 levels.

                             S&P 500 Emini Futures Day Trading THE GAP

S&P 500 Emini Day Trading Gap Tuesday January 19, 2010

S&P Emini 500 Futures gapped down 1.75 points Friday morning.  The gap down preceded a morning sell off that took the index to a low 1127.50 by 1:00 pm.  Prices found support at that level.  The index has actually tested the 1127.50 level three times since January 7th, and has provided support each time.  Look for a break down if prices fail below that support.  Earnings season begins in earnest, with big players (IBM,C, CSX, BAC, GOOG, GE, and others) reporting this week.  The market is still seemingly very news driven, and earnings surprises either way could provide plenty of volatility for this shortened trading week.

Forex trading US market closed EURUSD trading

FX markets were unimpressive in the Asian session. With the US out on holiday, today's trading session is expect to also be uneventful. Coming off last week, weaker US data, China's reserve requirement increase, rumors of Chancellor Merkel's resignation, unsatisfactory answered questions surrounding Greece and JP Morgan's better earnings, but cautiously outlook had traders understandably nervous. The EURUSD finally found a temporary bottom around 1.4335, while the USDJPY ranged between 90.60 and 91.30. Treasury yields dropped along the curve, with the 2y down to 0.86%. Perhaps the highlight of Asian trading was the noticeable response to Evans-Pritchard piece in the Telegraph, which paused the EURUSD lower. The article suggested that the ECB was preparing legal grounds and framework for the secession from the monetary union. The article lacked any hard evidence but relied mainly on the author's strong reputation. However, given the stress Greece is under, policy members must be contemplating "what if " scenarios…I know we are. In New Zealand, December residential house price index disappointed at m/m -0.9% vs. 0.2% prior. Markets will now be watching CPI on Wednesday and weak import and food price data have increase the possibly of a downward surprise. The RBNZ is expected a 0.2% q/q fall, so anything lower will reinforce the view that rates will stay on hold till mid 2010. The NZDUSD failed to break 0.7450 resistance last week and further removal of yield support will put addition pressure on the kiwi. Other key data points this week will be from China, with Retail sales, GDP and IP are all expected to remain elevated. While the stronger data will be good from the global economic cycle, too much growth and inflation might make Chinese policy makers nervous, prompting an acceleration of their tightening cycle. As we have seen last week, it would be highly negative for risk collated trades (especially commodity currencies).

Forex trading- Euro loosing ground vs pound Dollar strengthens

€ The euro depreciated vis-à-vis the U.S. dollar today as the single currency tested bids around the US$ 1.4365 level and was capped around the $1.4510 level.  The common currency was pressured overnight on rumours that German Chancellor Merkel may resign following a media report that she was losing the support of her coalition partners.  Merkel dismissed this talk as "absurd" and pledged to move forward with her pledge to reduce taxes.  Data released in the eurozone saw the November trade surplus print at €4.8 billion, down from €6.6 billion in October, while EMU-16 consumer price inflation rose 0.3% m/m and 0.9% y/y.  The common currency has also been pressured this week following ongoing concerns that Greece's fiscal position may require drastic intervention from the European Union.  European Central Bank President spoke after the ECB's decision to keep rates unchanged yesterday and provided a mixed assessment of the eurozone economy.  Trichet also talked up the U.S. dollar, an ongoing dialog he has had with the market that is designed to limit the amount of upside potential for euro appreciation.  In U.S. news, data released today saw December consumer price inflation up a smaller-than-expected +0.1% m/m and 2.8% y/y at the headline level and 0.1% m/m and 1.8% y/y at the core level.  Also, the January Empire State manufacturing index improved to 15.92 from a revised prior reading of 4.50.  Additionally, December industrial production printed at 0.6% and capacity utilization improved to 72.8%.  Finally, the mid-January University of Michigan consumer sentiment index receded to 72.8 from the prior reading of 72.5.   Data to be released on Tuesday include net long-term TIC flows and the NAHB housing market index.  Most Federal Reserve officials – but not all – have talked up the U.S. economy's recent strengthening and Fed officials are said to be reviewing ways to drain upwards [...]

S&P 500 Emini Day Trading Gap Friday January 15, 2010

S&P Emini 500 Futures traded the day in a narrow range with below average volume.  Perhaps traders were awaiting the Intel results which reported above expectations after the market closed.  Initial after hours trading on the Emini indicated a positive response to the Intel report.  Tomorrow morning pre market  economic reports that are customarily high impact, may mitigate the good news from Intel.  Friday is also options expiration, which often lends a bullish influence to the market.  Finally, tomorrow leads into a long weekend for the market.  Markets are closed Monday for Martin Luther King Day.  Expect Friday afternoon's trading to be light.  Most of the institutional traders have already left the building by early afternoon.

Forex trading - live trade room  € The euro appreciated vis-à-vis the U.S. dollar today as the single currency tested offers around the US$ 1.4580 level and was supported around the $1.4455 level.  Traders are trying to digest one report that suggests the Obama administration is going to impose a major tax on banks that borrowed funds under the Troubled Asset Relief Program.  Another report suggests the Obama administration is considering extending capital gains tax relief, a move that could support the equity market.  Data released in the U.S. today saw MBA mortgage applications up 14.3% from the prior reading of 0.5%.  The Federal Reserve's Beige Book was released today and confirmed improvements in business conditions in ten of the twelve Fed districts but noted the labour market is "generally weak" in most of the Fed districts.  Data to be released in the U.S. tomorrow include the December import price index, December retail sales, weekly initial jobless claims, continuing claims, and November business inventories followed by many data on Friday including consumer price inflation, industrial production, and more.  Chicago Fed President Evans today reported the U.S. economy may expand 3%  to 5% in 2010 and sees a "stable" outlook for prices.  Philadelphia Fed President Plosser spoke overnight and hawkishly said "This increase in rates must occur well before the unemployment rate or other measures of resource slack have diminished to acceptable levels."  In eurozone news, German gross domestic product growth data confirmed the economy fell 5.0% in 2009, a sharp reversal from 2008's +1.3% expansion. This represented the first contraction in six years and the largest decline since World War II.  French data released today saw the November current account gap narrow to €3.8 billion.  European Union President Van Rompuy reported Greece's fiscal problems are a major concern the en [...]

Forex trading Pound rose against dollar.

The pound rose for a fourth day against the dollar, its longest run of gains since November, after Bank of England policy maker Andrew Sentance was cited as saying interest rates may have to increase this year. The British currency also climbed versus the euro and the yen after the Guardian newspaper reported Sentance as saying the bank has done enough to stimulate the economy. The pound climbed to $1.6219 as of 8:39 a.m. in London, from $1.6164 yesterday in New York, for its longest sequence of gains since the five days through Nov. 9. It strengthened to 89.30 pence per euro, from 89.63 pence, and appreciated to 148.04 yen, from 147.06. The yen fell against all 16 of its most-traded peers tracked by Bloomberg before fourth-quarter earnings reports this week from companies including Intel Corp. and JPMorgan Chase & Co., which some analysts say will bolster stocks. Australia's dollar traded near an eight-week high against the U.S. currency on speculation a report tomorrow will show payrolls increased for a fourth month. Gold rebounded from its biggest drop in almost three weeks in London on demand for an alternative to a weaker dollar and lower prices for other commodities. Gold for immediate delivery rose as much as $6.39, or 0.6 percent, to $1,134.89 an ounce and was at $1,132.47 at 9:43 a.m. local time. Bullion for February delivery added 0.3 percent to $1,132.80 on the New York Mercantile Exchange's Comex division.

S&P 500 Emini Day Trading Gap Wednesday January 13, 2010

S&P Emini 500 Futures gapped down 7.75 points this morning.  The gap never filled and is the first overhead gap in quite a few weeks.  Seven unfilled gaps lie beneath the current price range, and leaves open the possibility of a correction to those levels.  Today's down market on good volume is a clue as to longer term direction.   Prices are coming off of overbought conditions in all time frames.  Look for initial testing of the 1100 level if declines continue on heavy volume.  If prices turn back to the upside, look for a test of 1150.  A break above that level on volume would indicate a continuation of the up trend.  For day traders, the return of volatility to the market is welcome.

We slowed down to a crawl today with a very tight and range bound trading day. Volume dropped off to 1.9 million today after yesterdays 3 million plus. Hopefully the market will face the piper on some of the valuations in equities and get this cleaned out in the third quarter. September is known as the worst performing month on the indexes and it has basically started off with the kind of direction to propel the markets lower. Lots of support here, but for how long?

The euro moved lower vis-à-vis the U.S. dollar today as the single currency tested bids around the US$ 1.4320 level and was capped around the $1.4390 level. Data released in the U.S. today saw July personal income growth at 0.0%, up from June’s revised -1.1% decline. July personal spending printed at +0.2%, down from June’s revised print of +0.6%. Also, the July personal consumption expenditures deflator was off 0.8% y/y, worse than the 0.4% June reading. At the core level, the July core rate up 0.1% m/m and 1.4% y/y. Finally, the University of Michigan consumer sentiment indicator came in at 65.7, above the prior mid-August reading of 63.2 but below the July reading of 66.0. The common currency failed to sustain its gains through the North American session as U.S. equity prices retreated in the session. St. Louis Fed President Bullard was on the wires earlier and dovishly said the Fed needs to see much more “convincing” economic data before contemplating an increase in rates. In eurozone news, the European Commissions’s economic sentiment indicator improved to 80.6 from a reading of 76 in July. Many economists believe the eurozone economy will expand around 0.5% q/q in the third quarter. Bundesbank reported German banks expect a modest increase in lending volumes in the second half of 2009 and in 2010, corroborating the central bank’s assessment there is no credit crunch in the eurozone’s largest economy. German Chancellor Merkel today reported the German economy might contract 5% or 6% in 2009. Euro bids are cited around the US$ 1.3900 figure.
¥/ CNY
The yen appreciated vis-à-vis the U.S. dollar today as the greenback tested bids around the ¥93.40 level and was capped around the ¥94.05 level. All eyes are focused on this weekend’s general election in Japan where the long-incumbent Liberal Democratic Party looks poised to lose its stronghold on power to the Democratic Party of Japan. Some Japan-watchers believe this will result in increased Japanese government bond issuance to finance the expected increase in public works spending. It is unclear how a DPJ victory would impact the yen. Japan is expected to battle deflation through early 2012 and will need all the help it can get from its slumping export sector through a weaker yen. Many data were released in Japan overnight. First, the July unemployment rate rose to 5.7% from 5.4 in June, the largest print since World War II and significantly above expectations. Second, the July nationwide consumer price index was off 0.3% m/m and off 2.2% y/y with the core rate off 0.2% m/m and 2.2% y/y. The Tokyo-area August consumer price index was up +0.3% m/m and +0.1% y/y with the core component flat m/m and off 0.2% y/y. Other data saw July all household spending off 2.0% y/y while the trade surplus for the first ten days in August printed at ¥48.08 billion, off 69.2% y/y. The Nikkei 225 stock index climbed 0.57% to close at ¥10,534.14. U.S. dollar offers are cited around the ¥104.15 level. The euro moved higher vis-à-vis the yen as the single currency tested offers around the ¥135.00 figure and was supported around the ¥134.00 figure. The British pound moved higher vis-à-vis the yen as sterling tested offers around the ¥153.60 level while the Swiss franc moved higher vis-à-vis the yen and tested offers around the ¥88.90 level. In Chinese news, the U.S. dollar lost ground vis-à-vis the Chinese yuan as the greenback closed at CNY 6.8256 in the over-the-counter market, down from CNY 6.8273. Chinese Premier Wen this week said the markets need to avoid being “blindly optimistic” about the global economic recovery and added China must maintain its “moderately loose” monetary policy and “active” fiscal policy. PBoC has reported it will ensure “reasonable and ample” liquidity.

S&P 500 Day Trading Course Gap for Aug 27, 2009 Learn How to Trade

Trading opened today at 1024.25, just 2.75 points below yesterday's 1027.00 close. We hit both our low (1020.25) and our high (1032.00) before 11am market time today. The rest of the day consolidated into a 4 point range between 1028.00 and 1024.00, piercing a few times but never with enough momentum to break out of the congestion.

The day closed at 1026.75, after trading an 11.75 point range through the day. The gap of 1027.00 was closed shortly after 10am this morning.

The large price jump you see in the chart from 10 to 11am is contributed to by stronger than expected U.S. durable orders, as well as improved U.S. consumer confidence numbers that were released this morning.
