Mid-Week Cattle Round Up: August Live Cattle

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

August Live Cattle      The cattle market chopped around in lower to sideways action in today’s session. I believe a lot will revealed in tomorrows trading. If this is a (iv) wave corrective rebound unfolding it should not rise above 112 which is currently major cross zone resistance. If prices move sideways to slightly higher and then falter the …

Diverging: Focus September Soybeans

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

September Soybeans      The bean market violated recent extreme of 920.2 in early trading to post a low of 917.2 before recovering to settle at 923. There is multiple time frame divergence in the price charts which could be signaling a rebound in prices. Confirmation is needed and this will be achieved if the market can press above 926 …

Gold and silver prices retreated for the second consecutive session as last week’s fears over a nuclear conflict with North Korea have abated and as of today the third or fourth story in the news cycle. Also weighing on gold prices was the prospect of another increase in U.S. interest rates, with an influential Federal Reserve official saying on Monday he …

Rebound: August Live Cattle

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

August Live Cattle      The cattle market made an early low at 107.925 and snapped back in impressive fashion to post high of 110.325 before settling just off upper extreme at 110.050. I’d be expecting further modest upside action from here. Any choppy advance should find resistance around 111 to 111.500. If it play out like this I’d would …

Slippy? Focus September Soybeans

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

September Soybeans      Beans can’t get anything going on the upside as they fail to climb above the 935 level spoke of in yesterday’s posting. Contract steadily slides lower throughout session to targeted first tier support target at +/- 920 as they hold up just above at 920.2 to settle at 921.6. Hard to make a case for this …

Alan PalmerGeneral Commentary

Wheat- lesson.  Here in recap up at the top of this chart is two olive lines.  The degree of extreme is a good way to define.  Trader methodology. Play these levels and do not look at the winners.  Here if you needed to sell wheat you would have heard me say for the past year that some day we would …

Ag Commentary

John WalshGrains

The markets were lower today after a weekend of fairly reasonable rains. The western belt is now receiving a better flow of moisture and this is expected to continue over the next 10 day period. The crop condition ratings showed a 1 % decline week on week. This may offer a small bounce overnight and on Tuesday. The long term …
