WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Conditions for manufacturing in the New York region softened a bit in September from August and remained well below levels of earlier in the summer, the New York Federal Reserve Bank said Wednesday. The bank's Empire State Manufacturing index fell to 4.1 in September from 7.1 in August. This is the lowest level since July 2009. Economists had forecast a small gain to 7.5. While positive, the index is well below the high of 31.9 in April and 19.6 in June and suggests growth at a tepid pace. The details of the report were stronger than the headline. After falling below zero last month, the new orders index turned positive. The employment index improved slightly.

Increased my S&P short and bought 10 year T-Note futures.

[#16]

Just realized I jumped the gun. Should have waited for the Industrial Production numbers first! Ah well, stops in place.

[grommet]

Is Mondays gap still on ?

Hey Jonnno, with whom do you trade T-notes and what's their spread on S&P? I'm getting 0.50 to 0.75 on FXPro..

[#19]

I am currently with global trader. Spreads are wide also about .75 on S&P. T-notes about 6 ticks.

[Levitt]

Thanks.
