Possible Trade-Gas

Gas looks like it is going to test the upper boundary of its rectangle. I got snookered twice this year trying to trade this market. I will be looking for a closing above 2.65 before going long. I am tempted to go long with a pull back to the 2.47 level.

Alternatively, I may trade the UGA ETF instead of the highly leveraged future contract.

Targets Reached- Corn and SOFR

For SOFR contract, I took profits and jammed stops.

The entire new crop of grains has been exploding higher the last few days. Corns target was reached today. I took profits on half of my position. The remaining I will use my ‘Last Day Rule’. I will move stops to the close of the previous day. Weather conditions could cause corn to keep going limit up. I want to ride this wave as long as possible.

Heating Oil

I will be looking to go long on a pull back to the 2.42 level. The energy markets in general look very bullish. I might not get a pullback.

Possible Trade-Lean Hogs

The February 24 contract completed a head and shoulder bottom yesterday.
I have buy limits at the 80.8 level with a stop at 79.5 and a target of 88. I will hold these orders open probably into next week depending on price action.
