AS I SEE IT: The market rallied early this morning on the Employment Report, but immediately sold off when the regular market session opened filling the closing gap. The rest of the day was spent trading sideways to lower with a small rally into the close. Weekend news could move this market, but if nothing special happens most traders are going to be waiting for the FOMC meeting on Tuesday to make large trading decisions.
This has been a very good trading week with the Dow moving 430 points, the E-mini S&P had a 48.25 point range, the Wheat contract had a 55 cent range, and the Oil contract traded in a $4.91 dollar trading range. This month can be a very good trading month and this week is confirming that.
I HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT TRADING WEEK!
ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND!
There’s no reason you can’t have as much fun trading as I do!
