I exited the short KC wheat trade for a profit.

I got stopped out of soybeans for a loss. I will give this trade one more chance on the next breakout.

Rectangle Patterns

Soybean Meal completed a rectangle pattern on Tuesday. I missed this trade, but this is a case example of a rectangle pattern. They are by far the most reliable patterns to trade. The best trades never look back after a breakout.

Swiss Frac

I just got whipped out in less than 15 minutes for a loss. I will wait for a closing price above today’s high before trying to go long again.

Long the Swiss Franc

I am long the Swiss Franc (March 23 contract) with a stop at 1.078 and a target of 1.117. It is about to complete a small ascending triangle.

Longer term shows it is clearing major resistance and could be interpreted as a largeĀ  double bottom.

Long Soybeans

Soybeans completed an ascending triangle. I am long the July 23 contract with a stop at 1480 and a target of 1600.

Short 5-Year

The 5-year looks to be set for a head and shoulder failure. I usually wait until the right shoulder is broken but I am willing to take a preemptive position. Stop is at 109’235 with a 105 target.
