Market Picks for December 1, 2009

by Erich Senft on December 1, 2009

==================================================
3: GRAINS
==================================================
———-
January Canola RSF0
———-

I hate to see the Canola trade struggle like this. Why? Because the longer it takes to get momentum, the more likely it will be to lose momentum and fall.

BUY 2 January Canola at 4100 (November 25)
Exit Stop: 3980 (stop)(GTC)
Approximate Risk: $240 per contract
Profit Target: 4200 (limit)(GTC)
Approximate Profit: $200 per contract
Degree of Risk: Moderate to HIGH

———-
March Wheat WH0
———-

What a gip! We nailed the Wheat trade but were voided by the opening gap. Too bad too. The market nearly found the first profit target.

==================================================
4: MEATS
==================================================
———-
January Feeder Cattle FCJ0
———-

Watch List – I’m really tempted to buy Feeders, but all that resistance at 9400 is giving me pause.

==================================================
6: SOFTS
==================================================
———-
March Cocoa CCH0
———-

I still like Cocoa short and after Monday’s session I’m loosening up the risk assessment a bit.

If March Cocoa opens at or above 3180
SELL 2 March Cocoa at 3177 (stop)(day)
If filled: Exit Stop: 3297 (stop)(GTC)
Approximate Risk: $1200 per contract
Profit Target: 3107 (limit)(GTC)
Approximate Profit: $700 per contract
Degree of Risk: Moderate to HIGH
