Corn has broken and closed below it's wedge on a weeky time frame. We are looking for pullback triggers to get involved to the short side. Targets are identified and the stop will come from the trigger (on a 60 or 240 min chart)...NO TRIGGER, NO TRADE!
This is part 2 of a post I did in September 2013. Nothing has changed, really. The same MACD signals produce good profits. Sugar futures are traded on the ICE exchange and any futures brokes can give you access. The margin requirement is $950. When MACD crosses positive on the daily I plan to go long.
Shorting Coca-Cola bottling company. Why? Price is near 52 week high. Recent strong rally in price, on no news. Price stopped accelerating upward, slowing/stopping (bulls are done). Consumer sentiment for sugary beverages continues to fall. Biggest sales are Europe which is currently burning the Euro. Price targets * 100 * 91 I'm not confident on the...
Corn on the weekly chart is coiling and setting up for a great move. As we always say ...if you want strong moves that will last longer than a day then you need to watch the weekly charts. It takes patience to wait but they are nice when they explode. Stay tuned.
After a two week rally, soybean (ZS) is now bumping into downchannel/descending wedge resistance on the weekly chart, which coincides roughly with the 1000 psychologically key resistance level. Weekly RSI and Stochastics are in rally mode, while the MACD which a few weeks back appeared ready for a negative crossover has strengthened again and is sloping up now....
Above 998 and the squeeze will have shorts scrambling. A close above this area and we will be looking for triggers long.
The chart explains my thoughts on declining coffee prices. There are many that feel extremely bullish coffee fundamentals are in the works and that we will see prices of 3.00 soon. I disagree, please post your thoughts, I'm interested in hearing all ideas and arguments. \ Good trading all! Eric
Wheat has been in free-fall since Dec. 19. After a strong buying day on Monday, sellers are keeping the price clamped down right at the 9 day EMA. This is one to watch as it's setting up for a possible rally if it can break through that resistance line.
Here is my contribution to the nice ichimoku analysis done by Kumowizard and posted at www.tradingview.com The wave count on the weekly chart reinforces the idea that bears will keep control on the mid/long-term. At this point in time it is pretty safe to assume that intermediate-3 is consolidated retracing the full 2.618 ratio and suggesting this would be an...
The awesome oscillator shows the downward trend is over by divergence between the 3 and 5. The next move appears to be the a-b-c correction that would form a wave A. Fibo ratios are in place suggesting the next possible targets. Weekly chart turning bullish with MACD divergence. I know the big drop today is somehow scaring (good volume tho), so to be on the...
Soybean has been a tough market for those traders seeking volatility as it has been on a “wait-and-see” mode for a couple of month now. I do not expect any major movement on the short/mid run; however, I do see a possibility to “widen” the current trading range. The wave counting above suggests that a B wave would be completed (or nearly completed) and a possible...
New setup in Cotton formed from a DP level that has a confluence with an ABC correction. This is one of the clearest Elliot wave patterns to play. The setup is giving a Risk Reward ratio at 2.5 at the quite conservative typical Wave 3 target. As an extra odds enhancer it was an VSA spike in the volume moving the price towards the entry.Target is in front of the...
Soybeans broke major support so we are looking at Corn to see if this pattern breaks with it. We will use smaller time frames for a trigger.
Soybeans, technically, should be heading significantly lower in the short term. With the confirmation today of the head and shoulders top, the market should plummet by 8 - 9% by year end. This will put the soybeans smack down at year lows. The pattern took about a month to develop and should take about that long to fully unfold. However, this is a scared market...
"Smart Money" commercial hedgers in cotton futures have been basically net long since August of this year. In a hedgers market this rarely happens and so it should be viewed as of major significance for price fundamentals. The commercials typically are net short and use the futures to hedge their underlying tangible commodity position. So what this data is...
KC put in its strongest weekly performance in about a month, reinforcing the line in the sand at the 180 horizontal support zone as seen in the attached chart. The 180 level also coincides with the uptrend support line connecting the low earlier in the week with the January 2014 low. Based on the renewed upward momentum these last few days, and the apparent...
In the first few hours following NFP on Friday, CT showed some hesitation before finally seeing an upside spike right in the closing hour, breaking it above downchannel resistance on the 4hr chart. In the daily chart, the symmetrical triangle CT finds itself in is edging closer towards resolution. Given that CT's RSI, Stochastics and MACD on the daily and 4hr...
Two down bars at a top with a price gap below $16 makes me think a third down bar will happen. SUgar market opens tonight around midnight PDT (CALIF) so I will have to set my alarm.......
