Soybeans ripped! Approaching monthly resistanceTook profits on my SOYB position for some nice gains considering a lot of downside in the equities market.
On a monthly time frame, SOYB is approaching resistance zone so I took profits and will be watching to see how price reacts here.
I'm expecting retracement / consolidation here before continuation to the upside or back down from profit takers and sellers stepping in.
Alert set at $26.5
May also be setting up for a good short opportunity
Coffee JO nice VCP Triangle breakoutsSome nice VCP / Saucer Handle patterns on JO as it continues to climb higher.
Watch for a break higher if it can chew through 67 zone resistance
Break lower out of triangle / trendline support invalidates long idea.
On a macro level we're seeing bullish setups in AG complex (coffee , rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, etc.) , coupled with inflation coffee should run.
Personally I've noticed my local coffee shops also charging $1 per cold brew which supports the bull case.

A minimum three-wave rally on Wheat Expected - Elliott wave WHEAT made a sharp and impulsive drop from the mentioned resistance levels, at Fib. ratio of 0.382/0.50 and at the level of a former wave iv (795/800 area). We labelled a possibly completed five-wave structure in C at 757 lvl., which means a minimum three-wave rally can now be in the cards, and is already underway.
If only a three-wave rally shows up, and then we see a new impulsive drop below the 757 lvl.. then this would suggest more weakness for a wave C.
If we get more impulsive price movement to the upside, and eventually above the upper parallel channel line, then this would suggest a bullish change in trend, and a completed red A-B-C correction.
🌽corn looks pretty ripe for a nice little reversal
saw a clean 5 waves down into Wave (A) to the 0.382 algo target, and is currently trying to poke out of the downtrend it's been in.
i do believe that this mean reversion begins in the days ahead for the Wave (B) swing to the 0.618.
Wave B target = 642
Wave C target = 423
WHEAT Looks Promising - Elliott waveWHEAT (MAR 2022) made a textbook example of an impulsive (five legged) wave, down from 831 high, and found a potential low for a higher degree wave A or 1 at the 774 lvl.. Price can now be in a temporary, corrective retracement labelled as an a-b-c flat of a higher degree wave B or 2. Possible resistance is at fib. ratio of 0.382/0.50.
In case if price starts dropping impulsively through the lower corrective parallel channel line, and below the 774 low, then we would consider a completed correction in B or 2, and further weakness.
WHEAT in leg v of a bearish turn - Elliott waveWHEAT is trading in a five-wave decline for a higher degree wave 1 or A from 831 high. We also see that price broke below the lower corrective parallel channel line, which is a confirmation that a temporary high is in place, and a change in trend underway.
At the moment we are tracking a sub-wave v of 1/A, down from 795 lvl., where a corrective sub-wave iv had ended (fib. ratio of 0.382 and 0.50 reacted as resistance). Sub-wave v can reach area near the 776/771 lvls., before an a-b-c move for a bigger 2/B correction may follow.
WHEAT turning bearish for a lesser five-wave move - Elliott waveWHEAT (Mar 2022) is trading as expected, turning in impulsive fashion down from 831 high of a former higher degree wave C. We labelled a five-wave move in progress for a higher degree wave 1 or A; sub-wave iv correction can now be underway, with possible resistance at the Fib. ratio of 0.382 or 0.50. Also the upper side of the lower parallel corrective channel line can react as resistance, and the former swing high of a wave b (796'2 lvl.). A sharp break below the 782 lvl. would suggest a completed minor correction and sub-wave v underway.
An impulsive fall, followed by a break bellow the lower corrective parallel channel line indicates a bearsih turn on the intra-day chart of wheat.
Wheat Taking The Bullish Move - Elliott waveWHEAT (Mar 2022) found a low for a corrective wave B at the 776 level, near the Fib. ratios of 0.382 and 0.5, which can also react as support, and bounced sharply higher. A sharp rally above the upper parallel channel line, and above the former high at 803 lvl. is an indication that bulls are in control, and that correction is completed.
We are now tracking a five-wave rally, a new impulse labelled as wave C, which can target the upper parallel channel line, connected from the high of A. 825/835 area can be seen, and can be achieved in a five-wave fashion as previous wave A.
MORE UPSIDE ON WHEAT, INTRA-DAY - ELLIOTT WAVE A five-wave rally on wheat (March 2022) from 737 lvl. on the intra-day chart makes a bullish sign, and suggests more upside, once current a-b-c correction fully unfolds. Correction can be a complex one, and can look for support at the 770/761 region, where wave iv and Fib. ratio of 0.618 sit.
Optimal Short Entry For Cotton FuturesRisk/Reward here is insane. Optimal long-term short entry. This is the third time cotton has been at this level in 50 years. Use good risk management unless an anomaly occurs like it did in the 2011 spike. Don't risk more than 1 to 2 percent of your total account size.

WHEAT, closed in Stop ProfitAfter 3 months we close our positions on wheat.
The price pulled back 25 points, leading our positions to hit the Stop Profit we had set at 769.80 to save profits, and it did.
Very good are those who have deducted part of the contracts on 50%, others on 38.2% letting the remaining part of the contracts run, very well indeed.
Now let's let the WHEAT go where it wants to go, we are far from any signal of the MCS, in February we will be in A1 of the annual and we will then evaluate any possible trade.
JO Fibonacci SetupThis speed resistance fan has been very well respected. If price doesn't make a higher high, I would expect a re-test of previous resistance at $58 which is also .5 fib retracement, a fresh daily level, and an old weekly level. Would potentially trade up to 1:1 extension.
