ZW1! trade ideas
Positive, but not there yet!I just adjusted the weekly multi-year bearish trendline to candle peaks.
Indication is bullish (see EWO, MACD and haDelta), but the break has not yet happened.
If price dips in coming weeks, then we will have to look for buy signals in 435-445 range, otherwise just buy the break and close above 475.
Long wheat!!!Hello friends
Hope trading is going well. Feb was quiet month for me. I did not had too many setups on my timeframe and my pairs. Took wheat long at close yesterday. Reasons are:
On weekly, i see bullish consolidation as ha delta is above 0 and price is above trendline. Chikou above price.
Daily is bullish. Price is above Tenkan now and hadelta is above 0. I saw decent risk reward here. So i am long. Have stop in place in case it doesnt work.
I am also watching few stocks. Will post them tomorrow. Really tired today. In case you want to check them out, they are TASR, INTC, MGM and NVDA.
Happy trading.
CBoT wheat dailyThe daily MAY17 chart shows that price has been under control of a long term descending resistance trend line that started during the 2nd half of July 2016 which was broken by price to the upside on January 5.
From there on price traded an ascending channel which has its origin at the 406 level on December 23 and offered support to price on January 30 and on February 7. Price has now again arrived at same supportive ascending line which should offer immediate support from Monday’s session onward.
The ascending line starts at 445 on Monday and ends at 450 by the end of the week. We will allow price to pierce through same support but we do not want to see price trading below 427 in which case we will have to reconsider our bias.
CBoT wheat weeklyThe weekly continuation chart shows that the price has been moving in a long term descending trending price channel that started in July of 2012 at around the 900/930 level and gradually channeled price down to 466 in September 2014 after which price made, although reluctantly, a new low at around the 485 level during August 2016.
From late December 2016 onwards price hesitantly started making modest new highs and has not tested back the most recent low. The interesting in this price channel is the fact that price has not been testing the lower line of the channel since September 2014 and made only one modest lower lows on the chart since.
Price has developed a descending wedge that roughly started between May and September 2014. The TA rule of an ascending wedge is that price, eventually, will break out of same wedge to the upside which usually happens between 2/3rd and 3/4th of the wedge and which has happened 3 weeks ago indeed. Usually, price then makes a test back to the upper line of the wedge which then serves as support which now seems to be developing.
Wheat Has Completed A Bearish Butterfly and AB=CD PatternI had an order set to short 1 pip above the current high of the day and didn't get picked up. I have since moved the order to the high as shown in the chart. Risk:Reward is pretty nice and looking left (further left than on this chart) there is some structure which supports this as a supply zone.
Wheat has been looking pretty bullish so it would probably be advisable to wait for a bearish signal on a lower time frame. Let me know what you think about Wheat!
CBoT wheatThe daily chart shows that price has been moving within the boundaries of a descending price channel until January 4 when price broke out of same channel at the upside. With the break out of price the upper line of the price channel has now changed its character from resistance to support. The zone between, roughly, 410 and 400 is now a supportive region which has been tested back on January 11 and which could be tested one more time before price hikes up.
Still neutral in the range. Trades at equilibriumFrom this setup we can not really decide what to do. It can either was through the thin and flat Kumo cloud, or Kijun holds and then price reverses up quickly. Not an easy call, as my system is a trendfollowing system, while Wheat it's clear Wheat has not been trending since July-August/2016.
Maybe haOscillator gives slightly bigger chance for Kijun to hold. We need few more days to get clarity.
Based on technical setups, Corn is still a better candidate for long in case.
WHEAT | Weekly Chart A rather logical looking interpretation. There's a reasonable degree of support, whilst we're buying in the lowest percentiles of the last decade. Further, the probability of the downtrend being breached looks increasingly likely. Further, the return distribution of commodities is particularly convex or asymmetric with a long right tail. Thus, we can give the position similar treatment to that which we might a long option trade.
Maybe it's different this timeObviously we need a break and confirmation, but Heikin-Ashi price action looks different compared to three previous cases, when Wheat could not hold gains at its trading range top, and fell sharply.
If range breaks on top side, bullish price objective will be 470-480.
