July Copper [HGN9>HGN9], on the Pullbacks Off Highs List, closed well and appears poised to resume its bigger picture uptrend. Look for a buying opportunity here.

Last night, I mentioned June Heating Oil [HOM9>HOM9] and July Crude Oil [CLN9>CLN9] as potential candidates on the long side. Both were up nicely today. Continue to look for a buying opportunity here as they appear to have pivoted back into the direction of their underlying uptrends.

June Lean Hogs [LHM9>LHM9], on the Momentum 5 and Pullbacks From Highs List, closed well and appears poised to resume its uptrend. Look for a buying opportunity here.

July Wheat [WN9>WN9], on the Turtle Soup Plus One Sell Setup List, hit new 20 day highs but reversed and closed poorly. This may have breakout players trapped on the wrong side of the market. Look for a shorting opportunity here.

Volatility Watch

The June Japanese Yen [JYM9>JYM9] remains on all three Volatility Explosions Lists. Continue to watch for a larger than normal move (in either direction) as volatility reverts back to its mean.

Best of luck with your trading on Friday!
