/6B futures are trading within a narrow range to the upper portion of the previous value area. This indicates stronger upward pressure on price, however, the narrow range indicates a new short term consensus on value. Until other timeframe buyers or sellers enter the market aggressively, expect price to remain between 1.2173 and 1.2389.
FINAL THOUGHTS
/VX futures are again above 50 as traders continue to await the results of the House vote. Gamma has turned slightly positive which will inhibit the current marketplace volatility. Continue to use lower leverage and always use a stop loss. If the House vote is announced today, expect volatility to follow.
