Olive Line Signals

Alan PalmerGeneral Commentary, Grains

ARP here

I offer the olive line as a tool to assist in your trading rules.

If you have a interest in telling me where you lost, I can assist by sending some historical charts.

You need to use strict money management rules, the olive line can assist with this.

It is always risky, but that’s why we play the game, I recommend using a stop.

You will need to have an eye for charts, but I offer extremes.

 

INTEREST RATES

notes olb(buy) 118.11

bonds olb(buy) hit 139.23  new low then up

30 yr yield 3.24 ish  needs to hold these levels or higher rates,lower bonds,use stops.

GRAINS

Corn  In my opinion there is enough capital available that a large trader could buy the whole crop.

I believe it would not be prudent for funds to push shorts below 3.50. I think we will see large specs look to build a long position at these levels.

The futures and cash are cheap in my opinion as we enter a potentially inflationary environment.

ol levels 343 347 353 were buys. Upside resistance 360,there now then 375.

BEANS  ASK YOURSELF WHAT IS THE HARD TRADE. 850-843 ARE BIG MACRO OLIVE LINE LEVELS. aLGO PIVOT NUMBERS.

The meal 316, 319 upside targets.

The bean oil 27.31 was the olb, then a reasonable 4% bounce.

LIVESTOCK

Hogs  macro levels are live, call for specifics today

fc  buy levels are below the market

lc  dec cattle 140 is this possible,I say expect the unexpected. Use stops.

In closing, Chart reading is an art form. I see diamond olive line patterns at extremes. I offer this as a tool for you regardless the level of trader.

There are no guarantees in life, no crystal ball in trading, just hard work. I used these tools on the floor. Let me see if I can assist you.
