Will Gold Bounce in 2016?
Today we take a look at a possible trade setup that could form in the next few months in gold.
Squawk Morning Briefing: More News
We’re heading into some news again with Non-Farm Payrolls due out on Friday and an advance peek via ADP this morning. The market has not yet tipped its hand as to whether the decline since mid-September will be impulsive or not and the reaction to news might cause the market to commit one way […]
Don’t Get Fooled By Options Probabilities
Lately I have been seeing more and more newsletter authors beginning to offer options advice. Often I find them advocating a trade by suggesting it is likely to succeed because it has a certain probability of success.

The crowd also seems to anticipate the sell-off continuing should they actually reduce their bond buying and that equities will head back up should they continue the current […]
Squawk Morning Briefing: Waiting on FOMC?
Much is being made about the importance of this week’s FOMC meeting. We know the market’s tendency to want to leave room to move either direction ahead of these sorts of events. If that is the plan this time around then we might see more subdued action today to leave things in a […]

Japanese Yen Trade Setup
Today we take a look at an interesting trade setup in the Japanese Yen. Please note that the video is looking at USD/JPY in the spot forex markets and the possibility that USD/JPY may go up from here. Symbols like 6J in the futures markets trade inverse to USD/JPY so if USD/JPY goes up as […]
