After selling off for 2 years$ 418 Low of May 2019 $1284 High of May 2022 $ 540 Low of April 2024 After massive floods in Europe, Asia, and now South America, wheat prices have taken off like a rocket. Commodities are not my specialty, but i have watched this one for years and it's been bought every pull back in the past 2 moths after it was sold every rally for the last 2 years. Even though the price is almost 30% off the last month lows, there is a lot more room to the highs of 2022. Strategy- small size, looking to catch the big move and more importantly to be able to hold on to it. Stop $631 1st Target $900 2nd Target $1,200 let's see how this one goes:)

Extreme Weather Sends Wheat Prices SurgingWheat plays a critical role in global agriculture and trade. Extreme weather has turned wheat prices bullish, rising more than 22% in a month after having languished for more than two years. After reaching their lowest level in more than three years in March 2024, prices have rebounded strongly. Wheat rally is driven by extreme weather events in multiple places compounded by supply-demand imbalances. Wheat rally is far from over. The May 2024 WASDE report painted a surprisingly positive outlook for wheat, suggesting an increase in US production. Outlook may be too optimistic, making revisions likely. Prices face risk to the upside once weather impact is comprehensively reassessed. This paper posits a long position in wheat options benefiting not only from price appreciation and from expanding volatility. WASDE PAINTS A POSITIVE WHEAT OUTLOOK Recent WASDE report provides initial forecasts for 2024/25 marketing year (MY24/25) and updates projections for the current MY. These updates are crucial for estimating ending stocks which will be carried over to the next year. Global production is expected to grow 1.3% in the upcoming MY to 798.19MT. Projections are even more optimistic for the US crop. USDA expects US wheat production in MY24/25 to be 3% higher YoY and total supplies to be almost 6% higher YoY. Source: USDA WHEAT CROPS ARE GETTING IMPACTED BY SEVERE WEATHER Russia is the largest wheat exporter commanding 24% of total global exports. Russia has been hit by severe frost and cold. Three of Russia’s key grain producing regions have declared a state of emergency, stating that May frost has caused severe damage to crops, reports Reuters . This year’s crop output will be lower. Frost linked damage follows record hot April which also harmed wheat crops. The USDA has reduced its outlook for Russian wheat production by 3.5MT which might be an underestimate given widespread damage. WASDE report was released merely two days after Russia declared emergency, leaving USDA with little to no time to assess the impact. STOCKS-TO-USE NEAR ALL-TIME-LOW Data Source: PSD Stocks to Use levels at major wheat exporters is currently at a 16-year low at 13.8%. It is expected to drop further to a record low of 12.4% in the upcoming MY24/25. Low stocks-to-use ratio suggests that supplies are tight. Ending stocks are low relative to total consumption. Low stock-to-use ratios make prices extremely sensitive to minor shocks in physical markets. MANAGED MONEY HAVE REVERSED COURSE ON WHEAT BEARISHNESS Sentiment is shifting rapidly. Asset managers have been net short on wheat futures since 2022. This trend has reversed sharply over the last month with asset managers cutting short positioning by 70%. Net short positioning is at its lowest level since October 2022. Last week, asset managers continued to reduce their short positioning (down 35% over the past month) while also increasing their long positioning. Source: CME QuikStrike Bullish sentiment prevails with a put/call ratio of 0.57 in wheat options. Calls dominate both near-term and later contracts. Recent options market trading has been bullish for later expires. Despite strong rally, implied volatility is lower than the levels seen last year and even during late 2022 signalling potential IV expansion. Source: CME CVOL HYPOTHETICAL TRADE SETUP Wheat faces multifaceted upside risks stemming from weather-driven uncertainty and damage which may not have been factored into USDA’s supply outlook. Wheat supply also faces the risk of disruption from record low stocks-to-use ratio. Wheat prices are up 22% over the last one month. A long futures position may be impacted negatively by a near-term correction. Instead, a long call position offers limited downside and substantial upside from expanding volatility and rising prices. TradingView recently launched options suite brings traders a raft of options analytical tools. Wheat options chain can be visualised clearly. Options IV across a range of expiries to identify key strike levels can also be visualised. Strategy simulator enables evaluation of various strategies intuitively by visualizing the payoff based on not only price but also expansion or contraction of IV or time-decay. The above hypothetical trade setup shows the payoff for a simple long call position in OZWU24 contract expiring on 23/August at a strike price of 750. The premium for this option as of 17/May stood at 33 cents/bushel which results in a premium of USD 1,650 for a full options contract consisting of 5,000 bushels. The above position breaks even at USc 783. If IV expands by 2%, the position would break even at USc 778. Assuming constant IV, the: • trade delivers profit of 1,850, if prices rise to 820. • option expires worthless leading to a loss of 1,650 if prices remain below strike. The options simulator features simple and intuitive interface enabling visualization of common options strategies. The tool also enables users to easily create and customize trading strategies. Alternative to a long call, the bull call spread provides a pre-determined maximum profit and loss. The long call benefits from price rise and volatility expansion. While short call offsets long call premium reducing potential losses. However, the profit potential is limited because any appreciation beyond the short call strike is negated by equivalent losses from the short position. Bull Call Spread consists of a long call at a strike of USc 680 and a short call at a higher strike of USc 700. The width of the spread is set at 2 (700-680), a wider range can offer higher upside and reward/risk ratio, but it is only viable when the expected move is large.

Wheat: double top or more to come?Concerns over weather and the potential for climate anomalies have seen a bullish trend in wheat recently. However and as analysts are at pains to point out, fundamentals on the ground like ample supply are still bearish. But now that wheat has broken through the 200MA in white and consolidated, it's possible that bullish sentiment may remain into the new week. A break back under the 200 that then becomes resistance again will mean that this was another double top, similar to June-July and December 2023. But TA-wise, if the price can stay above the 200 daily until the 50MA catches up, then climate concerns and a golden cross may rally bulls towards the weekly 200MA. Not financial advice.

Wheat vs 200MA: can it hold?Rain forecasts in Russia have led to profit taking in wheat, but the question remains how bullish (as opposed to short covering) was this rally? If the price can keep its head above the 200MA, TA-wise longs may be worth accumulating. While professional analysis points out that wheat's fundamentals in terms of oversupply are still very bearish, and thus an opportunity to sell down the rally and possible double-top if the 200MA wins out, it's worth keeping in mind whether another set of fundamentals - increasing yearly odds of extreme climate events and anomalies - has been adequately priced in. Not investment advice, der.

Wheat vs the Daily 200MAWheat has been in a price normalization phase after the potential catastrophe of Russia's full scale invasion of its democratic neighbor. Since June 23, bulls have made several attempt to break and hold the daily 200MA, shown in green circles above. The first four attempts can be read as two sets of double tops. Even if this rally can't hold the 200, chances of another double top are worth considering. However, unlike the previous double top attempts on the daily 200, the 50MA in orange is turning up towards the 200 and thus a second attempt at a golden cross may not be far off. The 100MA, in light blue, is almost there already, though of less significance. Record harvests aside, increasing climate anomalies and the depravities of wars of aggression suggest this market may experience volatility going forwards. As with all my posts, this is not financial advice and you trade at your own risk.

Wheat: Bulls are Back! 🐂Wheat is once again showing its bullish side and is taking the first upward step out of the sideways movement of recent weeks. In the further course, the price should now continue the blue wave (c) and complete the superordinate wave A in turquoise. Following this, we expect a sell-off. Within the framework of our alternative scenario, however, it remains 37% likely that the price will once again fall below the support level at USX 495.25 in order to make a lower low of wave Alt. (b).

Wheat Holding at the PCZ of a Bullish Bat Aligning with SupportWheat 2 years after topping out at the PCZ of a Bearish Shark that initiated a downtrend in 2022, has now come back to the top side of the range wheat traded in between the years of 2016 and 2020 before ultimately confirming the bottom at the PCZ of a Bullish Deep Gartley in 2019 and breaking free to the upside of the trading range in late 2020. Now that wheat has found its way back down here at this previous resistance zone, we can see that it has formed a Bullish Bat structure on the way down which aligns with the old resistance and that it is currently attempting to be supported by the 200-period moving average on the 2-week timeframe. We can likely assume that as the Baltic Dry Index continues higher, wheat will regain it's 2021 highs along with many other agricultural goods and that this will have an inflationary effect overall. In the related ideas section I will leave a setup for BDRY which is the ETF that tracks the Baltic Dry Index and I will also leave the DBA which is an ETF that holds the futures contracts for various different agricultural goods such as corn, wheat, sugar, and more related items. I will also leave setups for two Dry Bulk and Containership Charterers. Lastly I will provide my harmonic Inflation Rate projections.

Wheat Market And The Potential Catalysts Building UpIn this video I go over one of my favorite markets the Wheat market and its current conditions and it's developing stories from dryness in the Kansas City Area a major producer of HRW wheat to war torn Ukraine and potential disruptions there. And with a market that is very heavily shorted by large managed money speculators this leaves a market very vulnerable to sharp short covering spikes like we saw today. Overall I would still be careful I am personally am waiting for a retest of the current breakout but with us closing above the 50 day moving average and some potential catalysts beginning brewing I believe there could be opportunities that the majority of people will just shrug off. So stay tuned for more I defiently plan on making more videos about wheat and corn and feel free to message me I am always trying to learn more! CBOT:ZW1! CBOT:KE1! CBOT_MINI:XW1! CBOT_MINI:MKC1!

Can wheat break above previous trendline support?Wheat Technicals (May) Wheat futures shot higher overnight but got stonewalled by what was previously trendline support (now resistance). A failure to close out above 550-555 keeps the Bear camp in control with a potential retest of the lows still in play. Further escalation in the Middle East could turn the tide back to Bullish.

This morning, prices are attempting to firm as the market revisits our pivot pocket from 550-555.
