I've been buying Mch from 1055-1043 the past two days. You'll see the support at the breakout level from Sept/05.

Buying Sugar
- Thread starter Pa(b)st Prime
- Start date
I know with the announcment by W that they will try to migrate into ethanol. I am surprised that sugar has not spike. maybe becuase the ethanol consists of london sugar and not new york i am not sure. but even the nybot as launching an ethanol future soon and wuld imgain that there will be a direct relatioship.....so i think now is a good time to go long especially since u can qauntify your maximum lost at these levels.
anyone who can provide more info on the ethanol sugar equation or the london-ny arb that would be great.

W mentioned ethanol last year at the SOTU and that literally marked the top of the sugar market.
The reason for the big dump in sugar over the past year is purely a supply issue - globally we planted huge amounts..
This year, it will be a different story. Ethanol demand is huge, and we should at some point see 30-35 cent sugar...
We just need a bad Brazilian/Thai crop...
March 08 options are CCCHHHHHEEEEAP

SB just started trading electronically, and at the moment is offered by NYMEX in an attempt to knock NYBOT off. It's possible when NYBOT finally offers their side-by-side contract that it will have some good volume.Quote from huge230:
I know this can not be the case but why does the IB chart show up like this?
In the meantime, the only way to really trade sugar is in the pit (which IB doesn't offer)
Thanks for the reply. If I was to wet my whistle with some commodity trading what futures offer decent volume which i can trade at IB?

do you know of broker that offers pit trading in Sugar?
Thanks
The softs are out, at least for the moment, but the electronic grains are very active. Wheat, Corn, Soy, Soy meal, and Soy oil are all good to trade, even on an intra-day basis. CME's lean hogs seem to have some tight spreads lately too. IB also supports a variety of pit contracts at CME and CBOT.Quote from huge230:

dhpar- Pit trading in Sugar is available through most of the big established guys (RJ O'Brien, Rosenthal Collins, Man Financial, Lind-Waldock, etc.)
I had pretty bad luck with Man. A friend of mine has been with Rosenthal-Collins for 30-odd years.
