The meeting of the Fed today will not bring major changes in relation to what was broadcast to the market at its December meeting. Last month, the oil retreated over 25%, with a negative impact on inflation and hindering the task of driving the Fed to levels close to 2%. Given this trend, investors will monitor the reference of the Fed for inflation, it is not excluded the minutes to reveal the apprehension of the members of the Central Bank, which would lead investors to believe not only that the Fed will not raise rates at the March meeting as the number of increases may be smaller than anticipated by the Fed members (4 increases of 0.25%).

Setting market orders to go south at 10060 on DAX with 150 pips SL just in case Dax gets there by Fri, or before.
If there is sign of a downward reversal earlier at a lower zone I will short Dax too.

Thanks for posting, great stuff.

Do you go purely off the Taylor method, or have you refined it in some way?

I guess refined slightly only because there are so many markets to trade and we have excel now that does the donkey work, I still use my trusty desktop calculator for trading though

Can you recommend any resources to learn more about this method - a quick google turns up a lot of pages but all seem to be slightly different - is there any right/wrong method?
