FuturesCom's desire is to enter the report, keeping the recommended
Short April hogs. In addition we recommend:

Long July Hogs Short July Bellies .
We may be putting our ass on the line so to speak but that's the way we feel. Well-heeled traders should assume those positions.
These reports can and have caused drastic moves in the Pork market.
So be careful and watch your margins, in any event a traders should be prepared for a limit move in either direction.
Stay Tuned for a possible update during Friday's session.
In preparation:
I recommend BW Traders assume a long Posture of 2 Oct hogs for the pull so to speak and long 2 June looking for a target of 60 Cents on June.
Thursday June Hogs settled at 5535 and Oct. Hogs settled at 5470.
In addition I recommend BW traders assume 2 Long July hogs Short 2 july Bellies.... July hogs closed at 5610 , July Bellies closed at 5687 thursday
BW Traders Who have ice water running through their veins can enter on the opening for all positions.
Those Traders who want to select a price after the opening should look for
MC Flashes to enter during the trading session.
The Morning Comments will assume 1 lot postions during the session if able. Stay Tune for flashes.
Note: Premier Traders will receive a flash on price and quantity on all of the above before the close tommorow.
Remember Going into a report like this with a position is not for Widows and Orphans so be careful and don't over trade !
