Gold vs oil . 17h45 Units numbers per product.It looks to me , that i should go for 1 Gold and 10 oil somehow. Broadly speaking, you could say that gold and petroleum are inversely correlated. One of the factors is that gold prices tend to lead moves in market sentiment, while oil price tends to follow economic growth. This is because, for example, investors will sell their gold in anticipation of the markets performing better. But, when the economy grows, demand for oil increases, meaning the price hike comes after the economy is already growing. www.cmegroup.com

The inverse correlation GOLD vs OIL 08:10 05-Sep-19.LOG The inverse correlation GOLD vs OIL 08:10 05-Sep-19 Gold can be used for speculation but is preferred as a safe haven. Crude, on the other hand, can be used as a store of value but is preferred as a speculative play. This combination makes these two assets work great together as mutual hedges. Gold helps offset the risk of higher uncertainty, while oil can take advantage of market moves. Broadly speaking, you could say that gold and petroleum are inversely correlated. There are a couple of major caveats to add to that notion. The first is that more nuance allows for more sophisticated trading. The second is that there is more to oil prices than just the market. born2invest.com Understanding Intermarket Spreads: Platinum and Gold www.cmegroup.com Basics of Futures Spread Trading March 5, 2011 by Craig Turner www.danielstrading.com

spread wheat vs corn 11:14 04-Sep-19.LOG spread wheat vs corn 11:14 04-Sep-19 I spread trade WHEAT versus CORN. I follow more or less - Keith Schap – The Complete Guide to Spread Trading The guy who spreads and makes a little every day is the one who walks away with the big money.” –A veteran trader, quoted in Futures Every time i enter a trade in WHEAT i enter a trade in CORN with the same amount of units. Trade accordingly your account size. The trades can last hours, days or weeks. Patience and discipline and money management. I will not lose more than 5% of the equity. I can trade every hour or other. Intercommodity Spread The Intercommodity Spread is a spread between two different commodities, but in the same delivery month. Often this spread will set-up according to seasonality or occasionally a harvest supply/demand picture. The Corn-Wheat Spread The Intercommodity Spread is our focus for today! Specifically, we will analyze the merits of the Corn-Wheat Spread going into the 1st and 2nd quarter of 2011. This is a trade that I have monitored since the 80’s. I believe that it was first notable in the mid 60’s. The beauty of taking a classic trade and reviewing the trends and history of the trade saves time in research and previous observations may even save money on potential variances to watch for. In this particular spread, we note that July may be a strong month for corn as the weather conditions, plantings acreage, export numbers may still be unknown. The crop is still vulnerable until toward harvest which is in the fall. On the other hand, the harvest for the soft red winter wheat may be in July, allowing the market to regard the saturation of a harvested crop. One may look at the months; March, July and September contracts for this particular spread trade and select another, but this is the anatomy of the spread, not to be confused with a trade recommendation. As a matter of fact, this spread may be reversed at another time of the year. June may be a time frame to review the Wheat-Corn Spread. These grains are both feed product and may also be affected by livestock production trends, global supply-demand figures, weather conditions and basis for the farmer. The wheat is typically a heavier protein cereal, while corn does not vary to the extreme. In modern times patents on the seeds of varied grains has become big business. The USDA regulates the delivery, grades and contract size regular for delivery. The seeds and fertilizers must also endure disease and pests. There are Government Subsidy programs as well in some cases to control the crops being planted. In recent times, Africa has been know to lease land for crops to fulfill some of their required grain inventories in countries such as China. Technically, it is good to pull up a spread chart to monitor the merit of the potential move. One may select their Indicators to best confirm an entry. There is no audio in my videos. This is a demo ac. I have a real ac with oanda.

Silver. Will it Break or Reverse?!Silver has been on the move recently!! Its no secret that silvers price moves relative to gold, but the question I have is... Where would you go next? We are approaching resistance around the 21/22 range and I could see this going one of two ways. Price could either break higher or we could see a reversal which imo would lead to a possible triple bottom. Keep in mind that uncertainty in the market leads to a surge in speculative buying. That mixed with the relatively low price of silver, I wouldn't be surprised at a possible move to the 28 range

USO vs. USDNOK + divergence in Cash rate.Divergence in cash rate policy between US and Norway, creates an opportunity for shorting the pair. US is expected to cut its rate, while slower economic growth is waiting to hit the dollar. Norway's economy is doing great, and therefore they expect to increase the cash rate. also looking at USO vs the pair, as it have been highly diverge against each other. could though see oil lower as we are in driving season and a build is occurring, which means demand is low. entering on spot, with a hedge until a reasonable level to enter net short position for USDNOK. Happy trade :)
