SPY ETF Trade Ahead Of Fed Interest Rate Decision – Tue Sep 16 2025

Trade Ahead Of The Fed

On Wed Sep 17 2025 in the mid-afternoon, we get the latest Fed decision on interest rates. With the majority of analysts now of the opinion that the Fed will cut rates by a quarter of a percent, any decision that does not include a rate cut will send stocks lower.

Ahead of Wednesday’s interest rate announcement, I setup this trade using the SPY ETF to profit from any swings following the interest rate decision.

These Fed releases can sometimes be volatile and can lead to large profits but there is also risk in these trades for losses. Here is the trade setup I entered today. The goal is to earn a return of 100% against capital invested.

 This SPY ETF Strategy trade is for FullyInformed Members.
