On Wed Mar 19 2025, the latest FOMC interest rate decision is released at 2:00 PM. I setup this trade today to attempt to profit from the interest rate decision announcement which could increase volatility for stocks.
With the majority of analysts and investors believing the Fed will make no cut to the interest rate but may make an announcement on future rate cuts, we could see significant volatility after the interest rate announcement. There are a large number of analysts and investors who believe the Fed’s announcement could be more hawkish than investors are prepared for.
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.
