We may know tomorrow if the rate hike is fully priced in. Yellen speaks at 1 p.m. Friday, if she hints at, or indicates no sentiment change for a March rate hike, and the market doesn't react much, then we'll know it's priced in. However, if she comes across as questioning the timing or immediate need for a rate hike, the market will probably drop I'd guess.
Everybody wants to know when do the SNAP puts start trading? Oh, sorry that sounds like I didn't realize we are in a time warp and it is mid 1999 again! I will be adding SNAP to m,y IRA portfolio of companies that are profitless and even more important cash flow negative but sure do get a lot of eyeballs from kids living with their parents.

Bears still have the bias, but are losing a bit of steam at the moment
NY declining stocks = 3.0 x advancing stocks
NY declining volume = 1.9 x advancing volume

We have just about burned through the Algo momentum chasing from yesterdays cash market. RTH ADR low is at ES 2380 just below the RTH low for yesterday. Real question is how much of the after speech but before RTH (three squeeze cycles according to Arora's chart) will we churn through today? I am thinking that after the Fed speeches we could finish it up and start the weekend with a round trip.
The media wants us to be aware that a Fed rate hike means one a quarter for as far as the eye can see and pretty much guarantees a Chinese financial crisis.

Ellipses on long term weekly SPX. Of course the index could hover around 2400 for a lengthy period of time without giving the bears more than crumbles ...
