Swing Trading the Stock Market After Interest Rate Changes

Stock Trading Scans

Stock Trading Scans

The stock market hates indecision, we see "melted candlesticks" (small body) on the daily and weekly charts with little hope of easy trades.

Yesterday the FOMC cut interest rates and day traders saw violent moves in both directions. Today I'm looking for a trend day. Actually 2 trend days.

Now that the decision is past us, it's time for the big money to start positioning for the end of 2019. So I'm game planning for consistency to the day and weekly order flow.

For day traders that means holding to the close and avoiding the wiggles and jiggles, and trying to perfectly time entries and exits.

For swing traders it means picking a side and being patient. Let the market make you money.

Stock futures are trading lower, here is a scan of a few stocks with bearish order flow. Note the scan includes a "relative volume of 1," this means it traded at or near it's average volume yesterday.

The Impact of Interest Rate Changes by the Federal Reserve

This article explores how consumers will pay more for the capital required to make purchases and why businesses will face higher costs tied to expanding their operations and funding payrolls when the Federal Reserve increases the target rate.

In the great scheme of things you’ll receive an A for effort and hard work. Where you actually lost me personally was first in the details. As as the maxim goes, details make or break the argument.. And that couldn’t be more accurate right here. Having said that, allow me reveal to you just what did give good results. The text is certainly quite powerful and that is most likely the reason why I am making the effort in order to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, although I can certainly notice a leaps in reasoning you come up with, I am definitely not sure of just how you seem to connect the points that make your final result. For the moment I shall subscribe to your issue however hope in the near future you actually link your dots much better.
