<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis week there are 4 trades that are planned for client and personal accounts. This video will focus on the Lean Hogs butterfly spread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.<\/strong> Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Lean Hogs have been in a free fall since mid and late April dropping a total of almost 17%. Late last week LH closed higher on back-to-back days for the 1st time in the past 30 trading days. The Relative Strength Index hit an extreme level of 20.5 on Wednesday and started to bounce higher at the end of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Relative Price and Positioning<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Relative Positioning \u2013 Oversold versus Overbought on the horizontal axis. COT current net position compared to the COT data over the past 24 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Relative Price – Cheap versus Expensive on the vertical axis.\u00a0 A comparison of the front month current price compared to the front month price over the past 24 months.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lean Hogs is currently in the \u201cExpensive and Oversold\u201d quadrant of the Relative Price and Positioning grid. Lean Hogs is currently the most oversold market in the Meat class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n CTA Momentum and Relative Strength<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The CTA Positioning and Momentum Score is an accurate measure of current momentum and trend-following trader positioning using a (+10 \/ -10 scale). Momentum and trend following traders represent a large percentage of trading and can move markets significantly higher or lower. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Relative Strength is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements.\u00a0 RSI has a 0 to 100 scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lean Hogs have a near minimum (8) momentum score after bouncing from the minimum (10) earlier in the week. This indicates the CTA\u2019s have little dry powder to sell long positions or add to shorts. In addition, the relative strength index closed Thursday at 25 and Friday at 28, which are below the 30 level widely believed to be reversal territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Spread Chart<\/strong><\/em> To trade Lean Hogs, I will take 2 actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both trades are scheduled to be placed simultaneously On Monday, June 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For a video of this trade<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use coupon code \u201cSpreadEdge\u201d and get the Weekly Newsletter and Daily Alerts<\/a> for $1 for the first month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For a limited time, you can receive my Futures Training Videos<\/a> for free with a 3-month, 6-month, or 12-month subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For a FREE eBook about the SpreadEdge seasonal spread strategy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n More Information<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The SpreadEdge Weekly Newsletter is published every weekend and provides a broad overview of the important seasonal, technical, and fundamental indicators within the Energy, Grains, Meats, Softs, Metals and Currency markets.
