Corn Pop?Corn Technicals (December) It's the first trading day of a new month and so far, it's been rather mute, but that could change when we get more participation at the 8:30 open. Last week, December corn futures were able to chew through and close above trendline resistance and the 20-day moving average, for the first time since July 25th. The move above here has not turned the tide to outright bullish, but it has certainly helped to neutralized some of the bearish momentum. These levels will now act as support to start the month, a failure to defend them puts the Bears right back in the driver's seat. On the resistance side, our pocket from last week remains intact from 401-403 3/4.

Is Corn Building A Bottom?Corn Technicals (December) December corn futures continued to retreat in yesterday's trade, settling right in the middle of our pivot pocket from 399-403. Trendline resistance comes in at the upper end of that pivot pocket, above that is the 20-day moving average at 408. That acted as a brick wall in Tuesday's trade where we posted a high of 409. A move out above here on a closing basis could spark some optimism, but that seems like a tall order at this point. On the support side, 395-396 is the pocket the Bulls want to defend. A break and close below there takes us to new lows and keeps the door open for a test of 380-385.

Corn Futures Fail at Technical Resistance Corn Technicals (December) December corn futures looked like they were on the verge of breakout move above resistance in the middle of last week, but those hopes were crushed (for now) with a big down day on Friday. The weakness we saw in Friday's trade has spilled over into a softer trade to start the week, taking prices right back to where we were last Monday. Support remains intact from 399-403, a break and close below there would put prices back in in uncharted territory. The Bull camp wants to see a close back above 413-416 1/2 to neutralize Friday's technical damage. Friday's Commitment of Traders report showed funds were net buyers of about 12k contracts through July 23rd, the bulk of which was short covering. That trims their net short position to 318,549 futures and options contracts, which is still one of the biggest on record. Broken down that is 158,606 longs VS 477,155 shorts.

ZCU2024 LongThe 4-hour chart of Corn Futures shows a potential bottoming pattern with a recent reversal signal. The price has formed a higher low and is currently testing a resistance level. The Linear Regression Oscillator is in positive territory, suggesting bullish momentum. However, the overall trend is still bearish, which adds risk to the setup. The entry is placed above the current price to confirm the breakout. The stop is set below the recent low, while the profit target is near the previous resistance level. The risk-reward ratio is favorable at 1:2.28. The score of 6 reflects the potential reversal signal and positive oscillator reading, balanced against the broader downtrend and multiple invalidation levels above. { "direction": "Long", "symbol": "ZCU2024", "interval": "4h", "entry": 399, "stop": 392, "profit": 415, "risk": 350, "reward": 800, "quantity": 1, "score": 6 }

Is There Any Hope of a Low Forming in Corn Futures? Technicals (December) Corn futures failed to find any meaningful relief in yesterday's trade which keeps the Bears in control of the technical landscape. $4.00 is psychological support, a close below that could spark capitulation from longs. On the flipside, the Bulls need to see prices back above 412-412 3/4 on a closing basis to at least revive hopes of a relief rally towards some of the recent breakdown points. Our short-term bias is sitting at Neutral/Bullish, aka cautiously optimistic. If you're looking to play for a counter trend trade, volatility is down over the last two weeks which may make options more appealing, which could also provide a limited risk way to gain exposure.

Cornycheck out some of my ideas. also I don't take every trade idea that you see here these are assumptions before price action completes and confirms. The point of my ideas is try to predict price action everyone knows that's next to impossible but I'm having fun. I am not a professional trader nor am I technical . all ideas are based on what I understand price to be. when I see certain confluences that fits my trading strategy I then look for my opportunity to enter trades. to many egos here. we are all independent traders navigating the market. happy trading

Momentum Trading In Agricultural CommoditiesMomentum trading, a strategy as old as the markets themselves, has found fertile ground in the sprawling fields of agricultural commodities. As the seasons change, so do the prices of wheat, corn, soybeans, and other staples, tracing patterns as predictable as the migration of birds or the spring blossom. This paper delves into these seasonal trends, uncovering how they can serve as reliable signals for astute investors looking to harness the power of momentum trading. SEASONAL TRENDS IN AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES Mint Finance has previously highlighted some of these seasonal trends in Corn and Soybean in detail previously In short, seasonal cycles in crop performance are linked to crop harvest cycles. Pre-harvest, inventory drawdowns tend to drive price higher while post-harvest, a glut of inventory tends to drive prices lower. Corn Corn prices start declining in June following the harvest in China (second largest corn producer) and Brazil (third largest corn producer). Prices reach their lowest in October, coinciding with the harvest in the US. Over the past five years, corn prices have increased in the first half of the year before declining sharply in late June. In 2024, indexed price performance shows prices sharply lagging the seasonal trend as we approach the date on which prices generally declined the last five years. Wheat Wheat seasonality is less pronounced than other agri-commodities due to its relatively global distribution. Still, wheat prices generally rise during the first part of the year before declining in late June as all the major producers - China, Indian, EU, Russia, and US harvest crops during this period. This year, wheat prices started the year off on a bearish note. After bottoming in early-March, prices started to rise sharply peaking in late-May. Mint Finance covered some of the factors behind this rally in a previous paper (Extreme Weather Sends Wheat Prices Surging). Prices have started to normalize in June, a few weeks before the seasonal price decline generally begins. Soybean Soybean prices generally rise during the first part of the year. In late-June, as the Brazil harvest reaches its peak, prices decline sharply. Prices remain subdued until September when the US crop is harvested. This year, prices have sharply lagged their seasonal performance. Despite the rally in early-May driven by flooding in Brazil, prices remain lower than their level at the start of 2024. Moreover, the rally following the flood-driven rally has retraced a few weeks before the seasonal price decline generally takes place. MOMENTUM TRADING IN AGRICULUTAL COMMODITIES Investors can execute momentum trading strategies by leveraging these seasonal trends. In this context, momentum trading strategy refers to a relatively simple trading strategy where investors either buy or sell a futures contract at the start of the month based on the seasonal price performance during that month. For instance, if seasonal trends show that June generally results in a price decline, the strategy would consist of going short on the commodity at the start of June and closing the position at the end of the month. Although, at face value, this strategy may seem overly simplistic, its return and accuracy are surprisingly high. The simulations are based on a position in the front-month futures, consisting of one contract of the agricultural commodity, opened at the beginning of the month and closed at the end. Corn For Corn, running the momentum trading strategy would have yielded average annual returns of USD 8,500 per year over the past five years (2019-2023). Crucially, performance of this strategy in 2024 is sharply lower as it would yield total PnL of just USD 63 this year. Wheat Similarly, for wheat, this strategy returned an average PnL of 4,650 per year during 2019-2023. So far in 2024, this strategy would have yielded USD 6,600 in wheat futures in 2024. Soybean In Soybean futures, momentum trading would have been the most successful over the past five years. This strategy would have yielded an average of USD 13,600 per year between 2019 and 2023. However, in 2024, this strategy would not have been successful as it would have resulted in a loss of USD 8,700 so far. SUMMARY AND 2024 PERFORMANCE It is clear that although this strategy is successful on a long timeframe, it is not necessarily profitable each month. For instance, the Soybean momentum trading strategy would have resulted in a loss in 2024 while Corn momentum trading strategy would have resulted in flat returns. The reason behind this divergence from seasonal trend is clear when comparing the seasonal price performance charts at the start of the paper. Fundamental factors can result in broad-based trends throughout the year which can skew returns. For instance, as Soybean prices have been declining for most of 2024, a long position would have resulted in a loss regardless of seasonal trends. As such, it is crucial to supplement this strategy using fundamental inputs on what the long-term price trend for the crop is. For a crop which is in a down-cycle, a long position would not make sense and vice versa. In the near-term, all three crop’s prices tend to decline during July based on seasonal trends. However, the outlook for corn is most bearish. The latest WASDE report , suggested that USDA expects global corn production in marketing year 2024-2025 to reach 1,220.5 million metric tons compared to a forecast of 1,219.93 million MT last month. The increase in production comes from forecast for higher output from Ukraine and Zambia more than offsetting the decline in Russia. Moreover, USDA forecasts a season average price of USD 4.4 per bushel which is lower than the current futures price of USD 4.57. Asset managers are also shifting their view on corn prices bearish once again as COT report showed asset managers increasing net short positioning last week. Both fundamental and seasonal factors support a price decline in corn over the next month. However, seasonal trends are not exact. Particularly in 2024, seasonal trends have underperformed their usual returns from the last five years. Investors can opt to use options instead of futures to express the same view of weakening prices. Options provide fixed downside risk and require only an upfront premium, avoiding the need to manage margins as futures prices fluctuate. A long put position in CME corn options expiring on August 23 (ZCU24) can be used to gain downside exposure. CME Corn puts are relatively cheaper compared to calls. Moreover, options IV (measured by the CVOL index) is lower compared to the peaks seen during the same time last year. An options position would benefit from both falling prices and rising IV. Source: CVOL A long put options position on corn futures presents fixed downside of USD 464 (USc 9.29 x 5000/100) and unlimited upside. A strike price of USc 430/bushel represents delta of -0.29. This position would break-even at USc 420/bushel. MARKET DATA CME Real-time Market Data helps identify trading set-ups and express market views better.

Corn Futures Hold Steady Ahead of This Week's USDA Report Corn Technicals (July) July corn futures had a bit of a wonky trade last week, falling under heavy pressure in the first half but staging an impressive rally on Thursday to negate those losses, only to fall flat on Friday against our pivot pocket from 448-451. This pocket will be the first hurdle for the Bulls to overcome in this week's trade, representing previously important price points as well as the 50 (red line on chart) and 100 (blue line on chart) day moving averages. If the Bulls can chew through and close above this pocket it could spark another wave of short covering into Wednesday's USDA report. The next upside target comes in from 460 1/4-163 1/2. Friday's Commitment of Traders report showed (as assumed) Funds were heavy sellers through June 4th, selling roughly 80k futures and options contracts, expanding their net short position to 212,706. 69.5k of that was on the short side while just about 9.7k of that was long liquidation.

Options Blueprint Series: Cost Efficient Skip Strike ButterflyUnderstanding Skip Strike Butterfly The Skip Strike Butterfly strategy is a unique and cost-effective options trading strategy that builds upon the traditional butterfly spread. This strategy involves buying and selling options at different strike prices to create a position with limited risk and potential for profit. Unlike the traditional butterfly spread, the Skip Strike Butterfly "skips" a strike price, which reduces the overall cost of the trade while maintaining a similar payoff profile. Benefits: Cost Efficiency: Lower upfront cost compared to traditional butterfly spreads. Limited Risk: The maximum risk is limited to the net premium paid for the strategy. Profit Potential: Potential for significant returns if the underlying asset moves within the expected range. Understanding the mechanics of the Skip Strike Butterfly strategy can provide traders with a versatile tool for navigating market conditions when trading Corn Futures. This strategy allows traders to participate in market movements with a well-defined risk and reward profile, making it an attractive option for those looking to optimize their trading costs. Strategy Setup Setting up the Skip Strike Butterfly strategy for Corn Futures involves selecting the appropriate strike prices and expiration dates. Here, we detail the steps to configure this strategy effectively. Steps to Set Up the Skip Strike Butterfly: 1. Select the Expiration Date: Choose an expiration date that aligns with your market outlook and trading plan. Ensure you select an expiration that provides enough time for the expected price movement to occur. 2. Determine the Strike Prices: Identify the current price of Corn Futures. Typically, use calls for bullish setups and puts for bearish setups. Buy one in-the-money (ITM) option. Sell two at-the-money (OTM) options using a strike located near to where the trade target price is. Skip one or multiple strikes and buy one further out-of-the-money (OTM) option. 3. Calculate the Cost: Calculate the net premium paid for the strategy by considering the premiums of each option involved. The net cost is generally lower due to the skipped strike price. 4. Establish the Payoff Structure: The maximum profit is realized if the price of Corn Futures closes at the middle strike at expiration. The maximum loss is limited to the net premium paid for the strategy. Application to Corn Futures Analyzing the current market conditions for Corn Futures is crucial before implementing the Skip Strike Butterfly strategy. Let's examine the market and set up a trade based on recent data and trends. Market Analysis: Current Price: Corn Futures are trading at 456'6 per contract. Market Trend: The market has shown moderate volatility with a tendency to hover around the 450 level. Technicals: Recently, buy UnFilled Orders (UFOs) have formed around the 450 level, indicating strong buying interest and potential support at this price. On the other hand, sell UFOs are positioned much higher, around the 490 level, suggesting limited selling pressure in the immediate range and opening the door for a directional move with a potentially strong reward-to-risk ratio. Setting Up the Trade: Based on our analysis, we will implement the Skip Strike Butterfly strategy as follows: Current Price of Corn Futures: 456'6 Expiration Date: 74 days from today. Strike Prices and Premiums: Buy 1 ITM Call: Strike Price 450, Premium 27.25 Sell 2 ATM Calls: Strike Price 480, Premium 16 each Buy 1 OTM Call: Strike Price 540, Premium 6 Net Premium Paid: 27.25 (buy) - 32 (sell) + 6 (buy) = 1.25 points = $62.5 (Point Value is $50/point) Source: Options chain available at www.tradingview.com Trade Execution: Entry Price: The trade is entered at 1.25 points, making it highly cost-efficient. Target Price: The optimal scenario is for Corn Futures to close at 480 at expiration, where the maximum profit is realized. Break-Even Points: Calculate the break-even points to ensure clarity on potential losses or gains. For this setup, the break-even points are 451.25 and 508.75. Risk: In the worst-case scenario, this trade could incur a loss of 31.25 points if Corn Futures surpasses the upper break-even point. Conversely, a minor loss of 1.25 points would occur if Corn Futures falls below the lower break-even point. Source: Risk profile graph available at www.tradingview.com Risk Management Risk management is a critical aspect of any trading strategy, and it is especially important when trading options like the Skip Strike Butterfly. Effective risk management helps protect against unexpected market movements and ensures that losses are minimized while maximizing potential gains. Importance of Risk Management: Limit Losses: By setting clear stop-loss levels, traders can limit the amount of capital at risk and prevent large losses. Preserve Capital: Protecting trading capital is essential for long-term success. Effective risk management allows traders to stay in the game even after a series of losing trades. Emotional Control: Having a risk management plan helps traders stick to their strategy and avoid emotional decisions driven by market volatility. Maximize Gains: Proper risk management enables traders to capitalize on profitable opportunities while keeping losses in check. Techniques for Managing Risk with Skip Strike Butterfly: 1. Stop-Loss Orders: Set stop-loss orders at predetermined price levels to automatically exit the trade if the market moves against you. 2. Position Sizing: Only allocate a small percentage of your trading capital to any single trade. This helps to mitigate the impact of any one trade on your overall portfolio. 3. Diversification: Diversify your trading strategies and instruments to spread risk across different markets and reduce the impact of adverse movements in any one asset. 4. Hedging: Use other options strategies to hedge your positions. For example, buying protective puts can limit downside risk if the market moves significantly against your position. 5. Regular Monitoring: Continuously monitor the market and your positions. Be prepared to adjust your strategy or exit the trade if market conditions change. Conclusion The Skip Strike Butterfly strategy offers a cost-efficient and flexible approach for trading Corn Futures. By strategically setting up options at different strike prices while skipping an intermediate strike, traders can reduce the cost of the trade while maintaining a similar payoff structure to a traditional butterfly spread. This strategy is particularly useful in markets exhibiting limited price movements, making it ideal for the current conditions in Corn Futures. Key Takeaways: Cost Efficiency: The Skip Strike Butterfly reduces the upfront cost of entering a trade, providing a significant advantage over traditional butterfly spreads. Limited Risk: With a well-defined risk profile, this strategy ensures that losses are capped at the net premium paid. Profit Potential: Although the maximum profit is achieved if the underlying asset closes at the middle strike price, the strategy still offers substantial profit opportunities within a specific price range. Risk Management: Implementing robust risk management techniques is essential for success. Utilizing stop-loss orders, managing position sizes, diversifying strategies, and regular market monitoring can help protect trading capital and maximize gains. When trading options and employing strategies like the Skip Strike Butterfly, it is crucial to stay disciplined and adhere to your trading plan.

A Counter Trend Trade Setup for Corn Futures? Corn Technicals (July) July corn futures notched their sixth consecutive session with a lower close, the longest losing streak since February. We see weakness again in the early morning trade, but the intraday lows from Monday are still intact, which is actually encouraging considering the better-than-expected crop ratings report we got earlier in the week. 433-436 continues to be the support pocket we are keeping an eye on, this pocket is really where the market started carving out a meaningful short-term low in March and April. From a risk/reward perspective, we believe this pocket set's up for a nice counter trend trade. A break and close below that support pocket would neutralize that thesis, but if the Bulls can defend it, we could see the market seek relief and gravitate towards our pivot pocket from 448-451.

Bearish Corn Futures Technical & Fundamental ThesisIn this video I go over my technical and fundamental thesis on why I think corn futures are bearish. For example, I go over good planting progress, quality ratings of corn, good weather and demand concerns from the energy side of things and even Chinese imports of corn. I also go over the technical side of things and notice technical patterns like head and shoulders and a rolling over shift of trend on renko charts. I hope you enjoy and stay tuned for more!
