“The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time”. — Abraham Lincoln –

Saturday June 1, 2013  11:00 PM South Florida Beach Time

US Stocks closed lower on Friday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average closing rather sloppy for the last day of trading of the month. Additionally increased selling pressure was seen in the last hour of trading. Aggressive traders should be prepared for tests of slightly lower levels and more volatility while trading ranges are established. Treasury futures moved lower with rates increasing a bit, new contract lows for June 2013 Treasury Futures were set last week. Expect more range bound to lower action on  Euro, the US Dollar can strengthen into June and July. Dollar- Yen (USD/JPY) remains bullish with caution. Traders should consider the Japanese Yen futures as a trading affair for the near term, nothing has changed. Swiss Franc appears to be in a trading range, nothing has changed, if more selling occurs and it appears its more likely than not that it will over the long term. A range of 10580 on  top and 9700 under the mkt appears likely. Typically the weakest part of the year for Swiss Futures is still in front of the market during June and July. The British Pound is a trading affair. The British Pound is essentially at the same levels it has been for years and is likely to stay in this range. Aggressive traders can buy a sharp decline for a trade as well as selling excessive strength. No change to the Canadian Dollar posture, selling rallies is preferred for the long term. A topside level for USD/CAD near 10580 to 10680 appears more likely than not. Therefore buying Canadian Dollar futures should be on extreme weakness. The Kiwi has fallen apart and lower levels appear likely, the Aussie Dollar continued its decline, remains a mess and indicates that lower prices are in front not behind it.

Traders should note Bi-Weekly Outlook analysis for Forex markets will move to September in this issue. Daily Morning Comments will roll the analysis at the end of this week. Meanwhile Gold and Silver recovered a bit once again and appear to be failing again, nothing has changed. Crude Oil closed the week sloppy and sits near year the year-end 2012 levels. Geopolitical issues are lurking in the background and may provide support and hurricane season has begun. Consider Crude a trading affair and stay tuned for BW and Day Trade Flashes. The Grain Markets continue to digest planting delays, weather and price. Soybeans and soymeal ran up and are now weather markets and should be traded short term only. Traders can use day trades from both sides. Sell a rally in Wheat … Hogs are a trading affair as is Live Cattle. Cattle can become seasonally sloppy to weak into mid-June and appears to have broken longer term trends, is not cheap and downside risk has increased. Stay tuned for Livestock Flashes. Coffee is a mess, remains lower on the year and year over year. Sugar tends to strengthen into July. Buying October Sugar for a bounce should work, Cocoa acts lousy, sell an early rally. Traders can buy September Mini SP500 at 1577.50 for a turn higher if blood begins to run a bit. .
