Economic News on the
schedule today:
This morning we have another trading session in the US
without any major economic news on the schedule.  Monday was a sleeper without any news to get price-action
moving, and today may be a little bit of the same, however we don’t expect it
to be as slow as a Monday morning without any news.  We should certainly see an improvement in
today’s price-action however we must protect capital today ahead of the
session.

The only news worth looking
at today will be the JOLTS report at 10:00am
EST because it will look into the labor market,
specifically giving us more information on the recent Jobless Claims reports
last week.

Yesterday we heard from
various Fed speakers
,
all of which had an opinion on what will come next for the Fed.  We can assume traders in the US will be
reacting to what they said yesterday afternoon, and we are likely to hear more ‘fed-speak’
until next week’s FOMC meeting on Wednesday.

Are any of these
Red-Star news events today?
No, we do NOT have any major Red-Star news on the schedule
today.  Red-Star news tells us to expect
more volume, volatility and trading opportunities however today we do not have
any major news.  We will plan on trading
conservatively this morning until we see proof from the market personality and price-action
that we can be more aggressive.  We know
that a big, continued move in price-action is unlikely without any Red-Star
news today, so we will plan to take profit-targets quickly and protect capital
at all times.

Which markets will
be affected by this news the most today?
This morning the big question is which markets will be moving
without any major news?  We will be
looking for clues in the price-action this morning to focus on a specific market
(or two) because there may not be much price-action early in the session
without any major news.  We will begin to
analyze the price-action this morning at 8:00am EST and look for the market
personality that is moving today so we can focus on it.
