Good Morning All Walnut - you trading today? I'm going to be leaving today around noon EST and I can't really trade. I'm still in process of switching brokers. Hoping to have IB up and funded by today. Still looking for that little pullback in S&P. S&P Futures Daily free upload picturesS&P Futures Hourly free image host

I was planning on driving down to the quarry today, but the radar shows lots of rain so I guess I will think about trading today. But I am not liking the current chart setups, something needs to change don't you think?
Need some little pullback

But I am not liking the current chart setups, something needs to change don't you think? Need some little pullback I absolutely agree that S&P is overdue for a small pullback -- BUT with contango at over 14% (hopefully that will change) its going to take a lot to pop those SCAMs. IMO Today is also expiry. Yellen coming up today. She should be sending out the Hawks. Fed Lacker already came out saying 'next rate hike should come sooner rather than later'. I think Fed might be thinking things are getting a little over heated as well. We'll see what she says... If anyone has the power to move markets, its definitely Janet Yellen

yeah that sounds promising With the way the market is trading -- SCAMs will continue to have downward pressure. I wish I could place a trade but if I do I'll screw myself with trying to fund IB. then again I can always pull funds from elsewhere VXX looks like it wants to test low 17s UNLESS Yellen does something to really move markets -- VXX will most likely get there. IMO We'll see... At this point, would be wise to wait until after she speaks... no trades
