Gold Futures

Gold futures in the December contract settled last Friday in New York at 1,326 an ounce while currently trading at 1,322 down slightly for the trading week. I’ve been recommending a short position from the 1,333 level and then adding more contracts around 1,320 as I still remain bearish while placing my stop loss above the 10-day high which stands at 1,346 as the chart structure has improved tremendously this week. Gold prices have hit 1,306 on 3 different occasions, and if that is broken, I do believe the all-out bear market could get ugly to the downside as prices are still trading below their 20 and 100-day moving average telling you that the trend is lower. Gold prices reacted sharply higher off of the construed negative monthly unemployment report adding 150,000 jobs which were slightly below consensus estimates. However, the U.S dollar has reversed as gold prices were about $17 higher, but currently only up about $5 which happened last Friday as well. The chart structure in gold will not improve for another 5 days, so you’re going to have to accept the monetary risk at this point. Continue reading "Weekly Futures Recap With Mike Seery" →

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the October contract are trading higher by 50 cents this Friday afternoon in New York after settling last Friday at 49.11 while currently trading at 47.85 down about $1.50 for the trading week still hovering right near a 7 high. Oil prices are trading above their 20 and 100-day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is higher as I’m currently sitting on the sidelines in this commodity as the chart structure is very poor at present as I’m waiting for the monetary risk to be lowered so I will be patient. The market today reacted off the Federal Reserve’s announcement that they probably will not raise interest rates sending many commodities higher while also sending the U.S dollar slightly lower today as it certainly looks to me that interest rates are going to be low for a long period of time. However, oversupply issues of crude oil is what is hampering this market at the current time. Continue reading "Weekly Futures Recap With Mike Seery" →

Mexican Peso Futures

The Mexican Peso in the September contract settled last Friday at 5462 while currently trading at 5460 basically unchanged for the trading week while trading lower for the 2nd consecutive day down about 50 points this Friday afternoon as I am looking at entering into a bullish position come Monday’s trade. The 10 day low at the present time stands at 5305 which is risking around $900 per contract plus slippage and commission but come Monday’s trade that will be raised to 5358 risking less than $500 per contract plus slippage and commission as I will be patient and look for an entry point come Monday morning. The Peso is trading above its 20 and 100-day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is higher as I think this recent pullback in price is due to the tremendous rally we’ve had in the month of August as I still think the bullish trend is still intact.

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the September contract settled last Friday in New York at 41.60 a barrel while currently trading at 41.10 basically unchanged for the trading week as I’ve been sitting on the sidelines in this market for quite some time as prices are right near a 4 month low. Prices have dropped about $10 over the last 2 months as massive supplies continue to hamper prices as I still think a bottom has not been created and if you are short this market my stop loss would be above the 10 day high which stands at 43.39 as prices are still trading below its 20 and 100-day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is lower. At present I have very few trade recommendations as I took the month of July off, but I am keeping a close eye on many different sectors as I think we will be involved in many trades very soon. The trend is lower and as the commodity trader I always believe that must be a trend follower as trading with path of least resistance is the most successful way to trade over the course of time.

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the August contract settled last Friday in New York at 48.56 a barrel while currently trading at 47.71 down about $1 for the trading week while selling off $2.50 this Friday afternoon. The U.S dollar is up over 200 points putting pressure on oil and the commodity sector as a whole. Crude oil prices are trading below their 20 day but still above their 100-day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is mixed as I’m currently sitting on the sidelines looking for a possible short entry in next week’s trade. Crude prices are retesting last week’s low as a possible top has been created as the Brexit situation is spooking many different markets including stock markets around the world as demand could start to wane over the next several months. The commodity markets do not like uncertainty and no one really knows how this Brexit situation will develop, but I always look at risk/reward scenarios as I do think prices may have topped out in the short-term so be patient and wait for the entry criteria to come about.
