 …Transition from Cycle Day 2 to Cycle Day 3

Transition into Cycle Day 3: Next on deck for today’s session is the FOMC meeting, a 25-basis-point rate cut is anticipated, which would reduce the federal funds rate to the 4.50%-4.75% range.

This is expected due to softening inflation and a cooling labor market. Recent data supports these adjustments, as inflation has shown signs of returning closer to the Fed’s 2% target, and growth in core inflation measures has slowed considerably. The Fed is also expected to maintain a data-dependent approach for future decisions, monitoring economic indicators closely before deciding on further rate changes at the December meeting or in early 2025.

As with every FED DAY, market reaction can be a “wild-card”, fast, furious and down-right frustrating. So with this in mind, our “game-play” will remain true to our discipline in maintaining positioning that is aligned with market forces which continues to serve us well, so stay the course.

As such, scenarios to consider for today’s trading. 

Bull Scenario: Price sustains a bid above 5935, initially targets 5975 – 5980 zone. 

Bear Scenario: Price sustains an offer below 5935, initially targets 5910 – 5900 zone.

PVA High Edge = 5956     PVA Low Edge = 5911         Prior POC = 5935
