May 5th 2017 Pro Pre Market Prep



Good morning and Happy Cinco De Mayo!
Markets are looking basically flat as the reality that the repeal and replace health care bill is likely months away from getting through the senate which pushes tax cuts and reform somewhere into the distant future far far away. That may be the case and only time will tell if any of this winds up becoming reality. The more significant potential catalysts for the market are todays employment numbers and the election in France this weekend.

It would not be shocking if we saw some positioning to reduce exposure of equities heading into the weekend.
Oil continues to be extremely weak and that weakness could continue as we await a decision from OPEC on extending production cuts, which likely won't happen until the 25th of this month.

Gold is gapping this morning and that could be part of the positioning I just mentioned in relation to the big election that will take place in France this weekend. There may be day trade opportunities in the space GDX GDXJ JNUG NUGT and keep an eye on the dollar UUP. Do not chase the gap up and I would only be looking for a day trade opportunity in the space. I will also be paying close attention to volatility TVIX and UVXY for the same type of opportunity.
Have a plan for every trade you take.
Be careful out there and have fun on this Cinco de Mayo weekend>>>Mas Tequila por favor. lol
