I been selling short/hedged for awhile regarding cocoa, often taking loss on futures and taking overall profit on options. 46 year all time highs, so ripe for plunge down, can't wait. It like when crude reached 147 and plunged down in the 30"s, zippy doo daaaa
Long term trading, you have to get use to making little money till extremes. Better than taking hundreds of trades each week scalping/day trading.
...You would think with all the green movements planned and ev car entering the roads by the millions that oil prices would be below 20 but nope they stay perfectly above 70!!
The FOMO in me can only sigh. Technically, commodity prices should drop with rising interest rates, but that obviously ain't happening here. I wonder if it will drop once the Fed starts cutting rates.

.Well, it'll likely come down pretty soon IMO because consumers, especially in the west, can't go through their day without their favorite sweets. That said, the daily chart shows the price going parabolic for the last 2 weeks, so I'll be monitoring to see whether that will end up as just another typical blow-off top. If so, ya better get your stinky bear suit out of the closet.Wasn't there a guy on here some time back planning to short this around 3300?
Haven't heard from him anymore regarding his short.
