The (non) Effect Of Rain On Corn Prices
It rained. Prices fell. Therefore, rain makes prices fall. Right? Right...?!

by Euan Wilson
8/5/2008 5:30:00 PM

The financial media is very fond of linking a given market's price action to other stuff that happened in the same day -- but seldom do they explain why. First prices fall hard "as rain and cooler weather improved prospects for crops" -- and second, this one-day action is part of a 30% decline in corn over the past five weeks. But what about the first four weeks of that price decline, which included a shortage of rain and hotter-than-usual temperatures?

The Value Of Method: Corn
Have a plan. Be ready to change it, but always have a plan.

Successful investing is never born of disarray, as any experienced trader will tell you. That's why an effective methodology for trading will include effective rules. So, when a commodity's price action does the unexpected, coherent rules to govern your analysis and actions can be the difference between a big loss and a small one.

Corn And Wheat: Never A Dull Moment
Surprise? Yes. Unprepared? No way.

by Euan Wilson
6/30/2008 5:00:00 PM

Expecting markets to always behave according to your trading models is futile, and experienced traders know that. Being prepared to "assess, adapt, relabel and move on!" is an excellent piece of advice, because markets will throw you a curve ball more often than you'd expect. Elliott Wave International talks about how.

Commodities: Spotlight on a Special Opportunity
What can simple chart analysis tell you about the trend?

by Nico Isaac
5/23/2008 1:45:00 PM
There have been a lot of rumors in the financial media that Feeder Cattle prices will continue falling as the price of corn, the main ingredient in cattle feed, continues to rise. While there is some validity to this argument, from an Elliott wave point of view, Corn and Feeders have different wave patterns. In fact, Elliott Wave International’s Senior Commodity Analyst says he feels quite optimistic about BOTH corn AND cattle prices...

Commodities: Concerns, Expectations, Speculations?
What moves market prices: cold hard reasoning or fears, hunches and rumors?

If today's (Monday, April 21) price action in commodities could be summarized in one news headline, it could read like this: "Commodity Markets Fall On A Variety of Concerns, Expectations and Speculations." But isn't that the same as "fears, hunches and rumors"?

Corn and Wheat: Telling Wave Pattern Hints At What's Next
How do you know when a pause in the market is just a pause or a trend change?

by Vadim Pokhlebkin
3/27/2008 5:00:00 PM
Market corrections stump a lot of traders. You can understand why: Here you are "riding" a trend, everything is fine – when all of a sudden, prices stop trending and go sideways. Or worse – they start to fall (or rise, which is bad news if you are shorting the market.) How do you know ifmit's this just a pause in the trend, or a trend reversal?
