It's an interesting idea, but "experts in their fields" won't provide any data that the market doesn't already have. The Ag industry already spends millions on private analysts to study every facet of yields, spot markets, costs, etc. to predict the movement of price. More importantly, you...

"I know you just said you wouldn't be in the stock market, but what stocks would you recommend for our viewers?"

Yeah, long June '07, short June '08. June '07 is starting to price in a raise in interest rates, whereas June '08 is pricing in a 50bp lowering in rates. I personally believe in the raise & inflation case more than the lower & recession case. As a result, I think June '08 is going to move...

I really like M7-M8 here. I already have mid-curve puts on M8, otherwise I'd be in this one. :-)

Are you kidding?

$40k/mo is hardly "killing it".

I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for. Are you trying to position trade wheat for 3+ months at a time? In general, you always want to be in the front month if you're speculating--it will have the most volatility and liquidity. Trading just the Dec contract will keep you from...

Electronically. Without a doubt. Unless you're going out to obscure back months, you'll find MUCH quicker fills and fewer surprises electronically. IB only offers CBOT wheat, they do not offer MGEX or KCBT, so you're kind of out of luck on any other wheat contracts. As for which months to...

"Some farm report" was the planting intentions going forward. There will be more corn planted than at any time since 1946.

People who make "calls" are looking to take a victory lap. I believe anyone who has been trading for enough time can no longer afford to consider a trade a "victory" or "defeat", but simply a result. I've often though the most useful information resource for traders would be a simple bull...

Already did, just flip back a few pages in the the thread. I made several posts about this on pages 8, 9, 13, and 14.

Should have bought May hogs. Good grief, what happened? Limit up in only one month of hogs?

They've since had a major falling out. Cottle doesn't speak kindly of them.

Except, no. Coffee is quoted in cents/pound, therefore its multiplier is $375. And the 105 put is likely to be $2.02 given a reasonable IV. Therefore, your prremium will be $757.50.

Even with the reduction in soy plantings, we will still have the 4th largest (going back 20+ years) ending stocks if you project reasonable harvest and yield.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/23/AR2006102301257.html There's another one. Use Google. $18M in losses from one broker in one quarter due to this attack.

Here's one recent case: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/03/08/BUGGDOH6GP1.DTL Google turns up more.

Ursa-- The fraud I'm concerned about (and there has been a huge number of incidents of lately) is where someone uses your account to buy large amounts of some penny stock. There was a widely publicized case just a few weeks ago where some bad guy controlled dozens of brokerage accounts and...

I'm sorry, maybe I'm just missing the obvious. What is "WB" and "WF"? The chart seems to be a spread between those two mystery symbols. Is this British Pound vs. Swiss Franc? The chart looks right.
