There are the Sith and the Jedi... The Light and The Dark. Hold on, I thought only the Sith deal in absolutes? And what the hell does that have to do with Trading?  Well, there can be a balance between the two... The GREY area and that balance can also be brought into your trading too.   In this week's show, we look ahead to the Fed's 2-Day meeting, their expected 0.5% raise in rates, and CPI numbers coming out tomorrow.  More than that, we discuss a barometer for the markets that few people know about and can help you bring balance to your trading and maybe give you a little force sensitivity at the same time.
