Saturday June 16, 2012  5:00 AM South Florida Beach Time
With the abundance of News this week traders should stay tuned for updates and flashes in all markets.
   Equity Markets closed well on Friday, but are below the March Highs, typically a dip should be seen as we enter the later part of the third week June and early part of the fourth week of June with window dressing for the quarter coming in the last few days on the month.    Forex Markets will be a trading affair with every Ebb and Flow of News. Stay tuned for Flashes.     There is a seasonal tendency for Treasury futures to rally a bit into the end of June, especially the 30 Year Bonds and they can be firm until August…
Crude tends to dip into late June and then firms into mid July and August. Traders should buy dips in Crude Oil using August and Sept Contracts.   Also be willing to sell Sharp Rallies however with less emphasis on being short for now.  Unleaded Gas usually dips into the middle to end of the 3rd week of June then rallies till mid august. We want to use the weakness to buy August and Sept Unleaded Gas.  Natural Gas typically has a rough time mid to late June to the middle of July.  Gold typically can dip into early July Look to Sell Strength for trading then buying extreme weakness near the end of the month for a rally into August. Silver should be considered a trading affair with a weak tone until autumn.

Selling Coffee on Rallies should work until late August and September. The Soybean Complex usually is in the process of making highs now, selling Rallies for weakness into the end of June and waiting for a rally into Mid July and August should yield lower prices into autumn.  Corn is a sale on a rally while wheat should make its lows over the next month and is a trading affair for now.  Sugar should be firm into July Buy Dips but past the First week of July the rallies may wane a bit Be prepared top place both sides of the pork complex, look to short the back end of Hogs on rallies for a long term trade, stay tuned for Flashes in livestock .
