dtpro, live emini trading room September 20, 2011 at 9:12 PM As previously announced there was a live broadcast today but since I was out of the studio we were unable to produce our regular Emini Podcast. We will broadcast and record tomorrow.
FOMC DAYFed Funds Rate is a short-term rate objective of the Federal Reserve Board. The actual Fed Funds Rate is the interest rate at which depository institutions lend balances at the Federal Reserve to other depository institutions overnight. The real rate changes daily but is usually close to the target rate desired by the Federal Reserve. Adjustments to the Federal Funds Target Rate are made by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) usually at regularly scheduled meetings; but can also be adjusted at any time with an emergency meeting. The rates reported below are based upon the Fed Funds Target Rates on the first day of each respective month. We report the Target Rate. The Effective Fed Funds Rate (Market Rate) can be found here.
September 19, 2011 at 6:28 PM E-Mini S&P 500: A proliferation of contagion?
At the risk of sounding redundant, the day was constrained by fear of default by Greece! The first part of the day was bracing for a potential default and later, the slight relief rally came as Greece’s Finance Ministry stated that they were near an accord with their international lenders to continue to receive bailout funds. Athens was encouraged to decrease its public sector and step up on tax collection. Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos reported a “productive and substantive” dialect with the leaders of the European Union and the International Monetary Fund. Without the secured loans, the Greek nation would perhaps run out of funding by mid-October. It would in a sense be like a house of cards. Italy may for example hold Greek bonds and fall prey to the effects of a potential default. A larger economy may lead to further weakness in the Euro Zone,....
September 12, 2011 at 5:18 PM Markets recovered nicely into the close today. I was not in the Live Trading Room this morning but Michael and the CFRN Partners were. Really nice day! Be sure to watch the video if you weren't there.
Although I missed the Live Trading Room we had a beautiful YM setup just as we were starting the Live Radio Broadcast. Those who were logged in to the Chart Room saw it unfold in real time. It was qucik, it was clean, and it was good for 18 points. Some of the partners took even more.
September 10, 2011 at 12:06 AM Euro completes 800 Pip decline as forecast on this radio program 2 weeks before it happened. If you did not hear the forecast live, go back and listen to the podcasts for 2 weeks prior to August 22nd. Our co-host David sometimes strays down a political back alley but that's why we love him. Ok, the truth is we mostly love him because he can give us an 800 pip decline.
He also handed us a nice S&P 500 ES decline that Burt masterfully framed as follows -
ACTION TO TAKE: SELL DEC SP EMINI@ 1191.00 ON A LIMIT WITH STOP PROTECTION AT 1203.00
September 9, 2011 at 11:53 PM This Podcast is late. We had a meeting, then a workshop, throw in some hot flashes, sweaty palms, and a little crankiness and I think you'll forgive me. Won't you?
Ok people let's keep it moving. Nothing to see here............
Wait not so quick (got to throw in the seo mojo)

September 7, 2011 at 9:17 PM Thursday is "Official Rollover Day". The Zone remains the same...
Rollover day is when traders switch or begin switching from trading the current contract (Sept) that will expire this quarter to the contract that will expire next quarter (Dec).
The futures contracts that we focus on primarily are the S&P 500 Emini / ES and the Dow Emini / YM. They expire on the third Friday of the months of March (H), June (M), September (U) and December (Z). The rollover days, however, are 8 days before expiration on the second Thursday of each of these months. These months have the letter designations H, M, U, and Z.
September 6, 2011 at 2:52 PM I'm often asked "Did the market move Zone to Zone today?" I often reply "Yes."
