The market is waiting for news. The FOMC, Federal Open Markets
Committee, the people in charge of setting up our monetary policy and
interest rates, is meeting on Tuesday. We have a new boss in town and
everyone wants to see what direction he is going to take us. The market is
going to sit tight and wait to see what it does before it moves.
The bad news is that Monday is going to be very slow and Tuesday
may be useless. The good news is that the Tuesday meeting may be enough to
shake the market out of this range we have been stuck in for four months. It
will allow all those traders that have been scared of what their decision
will be to come out and play. Just think of all the money that is sitting on
the sidelines right now that the real estate market has slowed down just
waiting for the stock market to start moving.
We are waiting for the market to break either support or
resistance, but the market is still open every day. We have been focusing on
more conservative trades, confirmed trend and confirmed reversals. We have
been trading for consistency of profits and risk management while the market
is moving sideways. We are looking forward to opening up and riding some
serious trends.
Hope this helps,
