This Week’s Scripture

News Drivers

Today, 30 minutes after the market opens, we have sentiment and inflation expectations data being released. In my opinion, it’s an “orange day” in terms of market impact.

Three Big Events Next Week:

  • Contract Rollover – We will start trading the new contract and marking new levels on Tuesday.
  • FOMC Meeting – Tuesday is the day before FOMC Wednesday, which is crucial for market movements.
  • Options Expiration Week – Thursday is the day before options expiration, and Friday is options expiration day itself.

If you’re looking for a good week to take off from trading, next week might be it! Volatility is high, and the price action has been wild.

Yesterday’s Market Review

A couple of great things happened in yesterday’s trading session.

We pushed down to the bottom of the range we had drawn yesterday, and as I mentioned before, the bottom of the range is a better place to look for a long entry. We mapped it out, got the entry, and took the long.

  • Grandpa Roger made 50 points on this move with three contracts.
  • I took only one contract because I had an incredible trading day the day before.

Key Lesson from Yesterday

When you are countering who controls, be aggressive in your take profits (TP).

Overnight & Current Market Outlook

Looking at the 30-minute chart, here’s where we stand:

  • We are still inside yesterday’s range, meaning bears still control.
  • A change in trend would likely happen if we see one more ladder up above the current levels.

Trading Plan for Today

I’ll be looking for longs as long as we remain inside this range. Ideally, I’d like to see a move where we:

  1. Grab liquidity from these two pools.
  2. Make a strong move back in.
  3. Get above the parabolic trendline for a long entry.
