Trading System Signals on 03-17-2026

There was a 300 point Nasdaq rally from about 8:00 am to 9:45 am EST. (The day session starts at 9:30 am EST) After making highs on the day, the market slowly moved to trade below the day session lows and then died out around 25,000 in listless trade for the rest of the day. The mostly pre-market rally of 300 points looked significant. I would have expected some follow through.

Tomorrow is FOMC. It would be nice to see this market make a decisive move in one direction or another. The constant return to Nasdaq 25,000 is becoming overdone.
