Saturday Trades Wednesday Update 3/20/2024

FED Day – What will they do?

Today we hear from the FED at 2:00 est followed by a Q+A. What is the FED going to do? More importantly, how will the markets react to whatever they do. There is no way of knowing how markets will react or what Powell will say.

This is where you must exercise the most self control before trading and learn to react to the market, not the news. The markets appear to be in trouble, however we must let the price action dictate the next move.

Roll SPY, QQQ to Thursday, IWM to Friday
