Today we have MBA Mortgage Applications, EIA Petroleum Index, 2:00 ET FOMC Meeting Announcement and Forecasts, 2:30 ET Federal Reserve Chair Press Conference.
I said early on that I thought the ES would trade up to 2075 but I didn’t know we had to drop down to 2057 first!!!
I actually bought 2057s but only made 4 handles.
The trade was probably more than most people expected for a fed day.
