Grain Futures--- The grain market settled mixed this week in Chicago as traders are anticipating a major report on September 30th which is this Monday at 11 o’clock central time showing where carryover levels currently stand and the last several reports  have been big price movers as carryovers fluctuate tremendously with soybeans finishing up $.03 this Friday afternoon settling at 13.20 basically unchanged for the trading week with the carryover level estimated at 125 million bushels consolidating this week after a $.70 hair cut in last week’s trade.

Gold Futures--- Gold futures in the December contract had one of the most volatile and crazy trading weeks that I can remember finishing this Friday afternoon down $35 at 1,333 an ounce after settling last Friday at 1,308  rallying on the concept that the Federal Reserve will not taper bond purchases which sent many of the commodity markets sharply higher including gold on Wednesday afternoon, however reality has set in as Goldman Sachs came out stating that they believe the Federal Reserve will start tapering in December which put a lot of pressure on many commodities including the stock market today. I have been advising traders to sit on the sidelines in the gold market & I still think gold looks relatively weak closing right on session lows today as the bond purchasing in my opinion is overrated. The trend in gold is lower at this point but wait for better chart structure to develop before looking to enter into this market as volatility is too high. The U.S dollar hit an 8 month low which also propelled gold prices higher on Wednesday as the Federal government continues to try & support asset prices and it also continues to try to devalue the U.S dollar which is generally bullish commodity prices, however money seems to the flowing back into the S&P 500 as prices are hitting all-time highs while taking money out of gold market. TREND: LOWER –CHART STRUCTURE: POOR Continue reading "Weekly Futures Recap w/Mike Seery"

Soybean Futures-- Soybean futures had a wild trading week ending lower by $.13 this Friday at 13.83 but having a very bullish USDA crop report despite the fact that we are going to have the 4th largest crop in U.S history, but the carryover level dropped from 220 bushels all way down to 150 million bushels which now means the carryover in soybeans is tight again which should keep prices high for quite some time. We thought the carryover number was going to be 295 million bushels earlier in the summer and that’s how much this figure has dropped and if you go into the next report with possibly an even lower crop than 3.14 billion bushels and a carryover of 100 million prices could really move to the upside in my opinion. The grain complex in general is still in a bearish trend except for soybeans as the spread price between corn and soybeans is right near record levels as there is still huge demand for soybeans and I wonder what the next crop report is going to say as this was a disappointing crop year in my opinion. This year’s crop is only 3% higher than last year’s drought stricken crop which is amazing in my opinion but we just had too many bad things happen this year with cool & wet weather and then hot & dry with a very sporadic weather pattern causing the poor crop this year as now we start to enter Brazil’s planting season which is expected to be another record crop. TREND: HIGHER –CHART STRUCTURE: IMPROVING Continue reading "Weekly Futures Recap w/Mike Seery"

Gold Futures--- Gold futures this week saw extremely volatile trade finishing out this Friday afternoon up $14 at 1, 387 an ounce and traded as low as 1,358 this morning before the U.S unemployment report came out showing we added 169,000 new jobs which was disappointing to traders thinking that the Federal Reserve will not taper pushing many commodities higher this afternoon. Tensions in Syria as well are starting to flare-up as it looks like Pres. Obama is determine have some type of strike against Syria which also lent support to prices this afternoon as gold is kind of stuck in a range between 1,430 & 1,350 looking for some new fundamental news to dictate short-term prices.
