What’s Up, What’s Down: Spotlight on Softs

December 5, 2011 by Rick Alexander

Comments for December 5, 2011

Looking ahead to Monday by reflecting back on Friday’s trading

Futures and options trading is speculative in nature and involves substantial risk of loss. Futures and options trading is not suitable for all investors.

STILL BEARISH ON SUGAR, COTTON & COFFEE

SOFTS: 12/5/2001

SUGAR: Sugar settled lower again while in a downtrend since August. Sugar’s nearest resistance starts above 2400 with the 2500 area right in the middle. SELL SIGNAL. CALL FOR DETAILS!

001 chart

COTTON: Cotton settled higher again while having very good resistance above 9500 up to 1050. Also, there’s very little support underneath and really needs to hold the 9000 area. SELL SIGNAL. CALL FOR DETAILS!

001 chart

COFFEE: Coffee had a huge range before settling sharply lower. Coffee has been falling since the beginning of September on the daily chart and May on the weekly one. A close over 240(only once since Oct. 24th) first and confirmed by a close over 250 is what’s needed to turn this market around at this time in my opinion. SELL SIGNAL. CALL FOR DETAILS!

001 chart
