Happy Friday — and not just any Friday.

This is the most important Friday of the month because the market finally gets the one number that can make or break next week’s Fed decision: the PCE inflation report.

US stock futures are slightly higher this morning, but nobody’s trading with conviction yet. Why? Because with 87% of the market betting on a rate cut next Wednesday, today’s data could either lock that in… or flip the script entirely.

Investors are watching three things today:

PCE inflation (the Fed’s favorite gauge) — the big one.
Personal spending & income — a read on consumer strength.
Michigan sentiment — a pulse check on household confidence.

Layer in yesterday’s mixed labor signals — job cuts rising while jobless claims hit a 2-year low — and you’ve got a market that wants a calm finish to the week… but knows volatility is just one number away.

So yes, TGIF — but today decides whether next week starts with champagne or chaos.

Your Money Needs Your Decisions, Not Someone Else’s

Many people believe profits belong to rich traders. They think large accounts get special treatment, secret access, and better results. That belief stops them before they begin. They assume starting small means staying small.

Real trading rewards discipline, not net worth. A clear setup works on $100 the same way it works on $100,000. A risk limit protects every account size. A strategy scales. Wealth does not create skill. Study and process create skill.

You grow by building rules and repeating them. Consistency compounds. Small accounts become larger accounts through patience and structure, not privilege.

If you want simple guidance that helps you build skill over balance, these newsletters show real strategies anyone can follow.

Rate of Change (ROC)

The Rate of Change (ROC) is a powerful momentum oscillator that measures the speed at which an asset's price is changing over a specified number of periods (N).

Its calculation is simple: it compares the current closing price to the closing price N periods ago, expressing the difference as a percentage. It is designed to identify the velocity of price movement,

What to Look For (Key Features and Signals)

The ROC is a versatile tool used for both trend confirmation and signaling reversals.

Zero Line Crossovers (Momentum Shift):
- Above Zero: Indicates the price is currently higher than it was N periods ago, signaling upward momentum (bullish).
- Below Zero: Indicates the price is currently lower than it was N periods ago, signaling downward momentum (bearish).
- Crossover: A move above Zero confirms momentum has shifted to the upside, and a move below Zero confirms the shift to the downside.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions (Extreme Readings):
- Extreme High Readings: Very high positive values (peaks) suggest the price has risen too quickly and may be overbought, often preceding a pullback or a top.
- Extreme Low Readings: Very low negative values (troughs) suggest the price has fallen too quickly and may be oversold, often preceding a bounce or a bottom.
- The specific levels that define "extreme" are relative and must be determined by looking at the historical readings for the specific asset.
Divergence (Reversal Signal): This is the strongest signal, indicating momentum is not confirming price.
- Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, but the ROC makes a lower high. This suggests the buying momentum is weakening, hinting at a potential bearish reversal.
- Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, but the ROC makes a higher low. This suggests the selling momentum is weakening, hinting at a potential bullish reversal.
Magnitude and Velocity: The magnitude of the ROC line (how far it is from the Zero Line) indicates the velocity or speed of the price change. The farther it moves from zero, the faster the price is currently moving in that direction.
