Stock Picks Recap for 3/18/15
With each stock's recap, we will include a (with market support) or (without market support) tag, designating whether the trade triggered with or without market directional support at the time. Anything in the first five minutes will be considered WITHOUT market support because market direction cannot be determined that early. ETF calls do not require market support, and are thus either winners or losers.

Futures Calls Recap for 3/18/15
The markets gapped down a little ahead of the Fed and gave us the least volume after the first hour of the year at only 321 million shares, which basically meant everyone was waiting for the Fed and there wasn't much point in trading. The Fed news caused a big spike and things just kept going. We did not get the usual 3-wave phenomenon to trade.
Net ticks: +0 ticks.

EURUSD:
There was a very early trigger prior to A on the chart, so as the call said, that should have been 1/4 size and that stopped. Then, 1 leg out of 3 of the short triggered at B and stopped. Finally, the normal half size trade (we go half size overnight ahead of the Fed) triggered at C, hit first target at D, and still holding the rest with a stop under E well in the money:
