look at open interest: down over 2000 contracts yesterday and prices goes on climbing! It' s one of the most incredible short squeeze of the history!

I was not exactly short. I was into a calendar spread between march and july, and stopped fortunately with a few point of loss three weeks ago another athypical spread between Chicago March and Minneapolis March. I opened the thread not to dubitate of grains bull market, but to understand what...

thank u. I' m quite happy to have saved my back despite of the loss. I decided to close everything after reading Allendale's Friday commentary http://www.mgex.com/documents/2.12.08.pdf in fact it semms like that there is a sort of bottleneck in production not only a heavy funds...
