Long Jul / Short Sep FCOJ @ -0.9.

- Terrible orange crop. If demands come back, bull market will revive.
- Seasonal window
- Jul/Sep low compared to other spreads

Small loss@ -1.15. Retarded trade really.

Short Jan/ Long Mar 17 Soybeans @ 0. I think this is an anomaly.

Why ? I like this trade ! I even did some^^

TraDaToR · Jan 22, 2016

It was just that in the winter , OJ generally has a weather premium in front months like March and an incresing carry further...It was just the contrary lately and I thought the S§D situation was bearish. Now that we can see a large hammer on March and Mar/may is going up I would stay with this trade...Is the storm supposed to hit Florida a bit?

Scratched 1/3 @ 0.1 today before the market moved. I am not feeling it anymore.

I am adding EOD spread datas to my database (intra market spreads).
Have you any experience on spread futures datas versus spread calculated datas (one leg minus another) ?

TraDaToR · Jan 26, 2016

If it is daily datas, no problem. Intraday big difference.

Rachmaninov · Jan 26, 2016

Yes, its just daily datas, so i know that spread close will be coherent with the legs close. However I like to get tje volumes for each spread.
Do you have intraday spread datas ?

TraDaToR · Jan 26, 2016

Yes. I have native intraday spreads datas with ProphetX. I am pretty sure you should too with CQG.
