Lean Hogs: 3 tier long term buy opportunity.Lean Hogs have been trading sideways since late 2015 and on the monthly chart is best illustrated by the neutral monthly chart (RSI = 51.940, Williams = -47.019, CCI = 34.8246, Highs/Lows = 0.000).
On 1D the MA200 works as a pivot attracting the price always after an annual High or Low. The price is currently trading above so we are expecting a sharp decline below this MA200 consolidation belt and towards the previous 2 lows which now represent a 3 tier buy opportunity: 55.100, 48.000 and 41.000.

in combination with china trade, african swine, weather is affecting the overall strenght of the pork market during grilling season.

Head and shoulders developing on April HogsHogs index started to rise beginning of week. April market well ahead of index. Head and shoulders appears to be developing. Right shoulder may climb a little higher before fully developing, or it may fall from here. Keeping a watch to see if market breaks pivot and stays above. R1 would be significant resistance at 71.325. Neckline at S1 66.325. Let's see what plays out. Drop shouldn't be too significant as last shoulder at the moment isn't that tall.
February Hogs Falling Index.The hog index continues to fall now at market today. Expect continued move downward. Retracement is at the 20 day MA. We are in a fall from a double top at 67.675. Upward trend line would have to broken and stayed below for a complete fall to occur. First target would be back to S2 at 58.375. RSI trend is down for now.
December Lean Hogs Mutiple setupsDec Hogs took a run at the ever increasing index now at 69.31 for the Oct contract. This appears to be heading for a double top. We have a few things developing for Dec. In short term a possible head and shoulders bring it down to S2. In long term we have a Elliot Wave in its 3rd position. New Pivots have formed for the month of October. If this market explodes further upwards we would be heading for a double top at 66 for Dec.
1D Channel Up. Long.Lean Hogs (HE1!) are on a 1D Channel Up (MACD = 2.610, Highs/Lows = 4.5150, B/BP = 9.0280) but highly overbought (RSI = 72.148, STOCHRSI = 96.420) hence in need of a technically pull back. Based on the recurring patterns this will come in the form of a consolidation/ slow down and not a standard pull back. The next Higher High and TP is projected at 70.000.
