There have been 7 times that the S&P 500 futures rallied 1% or more on a scheduled FOMC day, then gapped up at least +0.25% the following morning. Over the next three days, it did not manage to show a positive return even once, and averaged -1.7%. The average maximum gain at any point during the trades was +0.9%, compared to an average maximum loss of -3.7%, so historically anyway it has not paid to chase these kinds of attempted follow-through.Cobra 发表于 2009-8-13 09:06 
-3.7% vs +0.9%, it looks a bear payoff. As playing tennis, pros play percentage with a safe shot. It seems more downs than ups in the next two days. However, down by -1.7% is not too bad, still tolerable. Good luck! |
