not at my IM right now, what is phys crack today?

thanks Mav, after looking at it I tend to agree....that grid feature is nice. We're looking for some possible rotations in energies today. rb/ho beat us to the punch, but could see cracks start to lose momentum higher today as well....not ACD completely, just some risk / value rotation stuff...

Thanks Mav, will do that. But there is no way to get it all on one chart?

Do any of yall use CQG or TOS charts? I have both, and have been trying to figure out on one or the other how to get the ACD levels from multiple timeframes on the same chart. Tired of flipping through to get daily / weekly / monthly and some proprietary sub-timeframe ACD stuff we do. Would...

I hope this is the right sub-forum. I'm not very computer savvy, and currently use an Excel sheet to calculate several values for a few futures contracts. I have TOS and CQG charts, I assume TOS will be easier to use. I can program my calculations into TOS, and it works well, plotting the...

USDA WASDE report today @ 11. Biggest miss ever for an August report. I'm actually surprised we didnt lock limit in corn and beans.

crude being held up today by products. rb still on a tear, as is front crack. @hoop121 any rumors on final destination for wti-brent? have heard some wild numbers thrown out there, but we are in a "spread ANYTHING against crude" environment

rbob still really strong in this energy puke. failed a-down, trying for a-up. u/f and rb/ho both up a nickel since friday. If you gotta be long energy, theres where to be

Fundamentally, beans have more volatility due to the market dynamics. The US and South America have alternate growing seasons and make up the most of the market. Add political and every other kind of instability to South America, and for at least half the year it seems there is a supply...

@kinggyppo to answer your question from the other day regarding grains and ACD. A little of my background, then some methodology. I grew up on a corn/wheat/cotton farm in Texas. After high school I took a job as a farm manager and most of my responsibility revolved around trying to develop...

dang Max, sorry to hear. I'm sure you can't divulge the name of the firm, but do let us know how it works out for you. I was on a desk like that for about a year, can't believe Risk Management would let one whole division / branch get on one side of a trade like that. Would think they'd stop...

Mav may have a different answer, but for me, I don't use a NL on rb/ho. The reason for this is that, as a spread, it is extremely thinly traded. barely 800 as of 10:27cst. We look more at the difference in flat price NLs. so, example, if rb has a -10 and ho has a +10, then the spread we...

fyi....keep a sharp eye on rbob...only one that didn't make an A-down this morning despite being the net change leader down...just sayin... looks like failed A-downs coming in crude and ho as well.

@hoop121 I've heard gulf basis on rbob is pretty pathetic as well, forwards trading well below board. @logicaltrader I follow rb/ho, what are you wanting to know?

Kinggy, if you'll allow me to "pull a Maverick" here, I'll be able to give more than just a one or two line response this weekend. Swamped here at the moment

....and of course, as soon as I do post a trade, it doesn't work ;) Scratched it just below the A-down today, same price I bought it at. A lot of A-ups / downs lining up the past few days at this 504 level. Just for future reference. Also, to the earlier comment regarding # of...

I don't typically chime in with specific trades, but I don't recall seeing these talked about often. One trade we put on yesterday was long december wheat. A classic Fisher Trend Reversal Trade....an A-up at or above 2 or more consecutive A-down levels. wheat made the A-up and confirmed...

Compared to the new monitor ( same model, same site), saved about 22%.

Yes, CME has calendar spread options on several products. N/x soybean and n/z and z/z corn are ones I watch that are fairly popular

ok....I already know what I need as far as how many....just wanted to know the ins and outs of the differences between them. wanted to keep things as low budget as possible, without sacrificing my, or my other trader's eyesight. Thanks for the replies. I found some refurb Acer 24" 1920x1200s...
