sold my LC DEC 88 put at 325. 65 pt profit. wish I would've known the Goldman roll mishap with the imbalance of August contracts to buy and sell and the imbalance of October sales . Anyway, the market spoke to me and though I think bias is still negative, I took the money. still have my...

we've completed a demark 9 day buy countdown on the peso. long dollars here.

and 83.5 was softer than prior trade around 84 last week or am i wrong? another thing i'm very interested in gauging is the amount of premium or discount futures can usually hold against cash. before the rally cash was hovering around 80 and futures were around 78 , now with cash around 83.5...

reading this leads one to think there is a supply constraint? Feeder steers and heifers, under 800 lbs steady to 2.00 higher with most increase occurring early in the week; over 800 lbs weak to 1.00 lower. Very uneven trend, late week sales tended to be weaker, while those that...

thanks for the clarification traderaaa, in my view today's technical rejection of new highs and closing at the lows is bearish. in october feeders i'm looking for a break of 113 to set the ball going. my view is that live prices should wane as well and i purchased a 88 dec put today at the...

A couple technical questions: What can we infer as to market structure/pricing by looking at the Choice/Select spread? Can any directional bias be inferred from this? Pasture condition looked to be pretty bad in last USDA report. How will this affect the July 21st report? Feedlots "rush"...

and the top is in place. really: costs 57,525 to buy 65 head of cattle 13,562 to feed them and sell them for 72,050. thin

also thinking of buying a dec 90 put and selling a dec 88 put (live cattle) for 40 pts. being told unable on my order today and figuring out what the color is. me thinks topping as well.
