How To Trade Earnings Season
How To Trade Emini Futures During Earnings Season
For the most part you can trade Emini Futures just as you normally would during earnings season with one great big caveat - Be Flat Before the Open and Close.
Thursday 526 companies will report earnings. Some before the open, some after the close and quite a few at "unspecified" times. Many of these companies you've never heard of and no matter what type of earnings they report, their is little chance that they will move the overall markets. There will also be 381 webcasts, mostly during the trading day. The companies that are heavily followed and do have the ability to move the markets are also the ones that everyone knows exactly when the report will be released... and they're waiting.
