The most important point from Powell's press conference today - no guidance on future rate hiking. The Fed could go more aggressive in rate hiking or not as aggressive as it has been, all depend on data ..........................
Fed should be done by September meeting, unless we see huge ramp in 2 year rates in the interim.
I'd expect T-bond rates to go further up later in the year as Powell reiterated today that starting in Sept. the Fed will go in full strength to reduce its balance sheet ................................

Spoiler alert: They can't without crashing things.
Late September into October should be "interesting"...

VARNEY
Watched CNBC from their inception until a few years ago, then switched to BOOMBERG
BLOOMBERG is best -- they are on 24/7, global reporting...
I like Fox business especially Varney and Charles Payne!!

Looks like they pulled the plug late today...
but my FF is rally to ES 4250 or maybe it gets only to 4200 -- not smoothly but volatile markets on this rally, and then DOWN again, possibly to new 2022 lows
Done!
more than 100 ES points rally in less than 2 days ...
that's great!
Holding 44 TLT CALLS
Will buy UVXY CALLS
will close all LONGS except hold ALL TLT CALLS
Will buy UVXY PUTS
Decent chance this holds until the Mega Cap reports tomorrow after close, and the we see down wave for a bit...
160ish on AAPL before they pull the rug???

I missed out on the last 25 ES points but that's OK because it dropped, then dropped more with META miss, and now trading at 4016
Traders are bullish, markets up as most interpreted POWELL as dovish -- I did not, but BULLS enjoying a rally based on relief sentiment...
Will daytrade for rest of this month, open new PUT positions, starting from above ES 4090... holding TLT CALLS and new UVXY CALL position
Above assume market rallies to, or above, ES 4200
Most likely, market will rally and then drop tomorrow, repeat Friday, but will finish the week above ES 4017 where it is now.
If this rally fails then .... the drop will be swift and far down below ....
Done!

USD/YEN dropped during POWEL Presser and now dropping again as BOJ (japan) reiterate more easing .... will Japan ever raise rates? LOL
DOILLAR TOP may be in place for at least a few weeks....

YES, THIS IS THE SUMMER RALLY IN PROGRESS! Maybe not as strong as others in previous years but it is all we can afford in these difficult times, OK?
Enjoy it... because it is the dreaded September and then OCTOBER!

YEAH, we are heading to that rare +300 level as I wrote yesterday. May not reach there but then a pullback, and this can stay above zero for the duration of this
SUMMER RALLY.
up 90 today
and SUMMATION INDEX up 200

Nice rally, good profits, but I have only a relatively small LONG position --- will add more on any decline
or, I will close on any rally, wind up JULY trading with RISK OFF for rest of month, 7 consecutive profitable months
AUGUST is usually a bad month for me but I will try to keep it GREEN
This below could spike up to near max levels +300 and the drop
