Over the last few days, both corn and wheat prices have made a complete turnaround from multi-year lows to multi-month highs. And, according to the mainstream powers-that-see, the number one reason behind the concerted rise is a falling dollar. Find out why this logic doesn't hold water...

Over the last two months, corn prices have been about as perky as a pallbearer. From its early June high, the grain has plunged nearly 10% to land at a fresh contract low. As for seeing the sell-off beforehand -- the June 2009 Monthly Futures Junctures was one step ahead of the game.

Yesterday, while carpooling home from the office, I looked up in the sky and imagined a very strange shape in the puffy clouds; namely: A roast pig with an apple in its mouth. My coworker's immediate response to this was: "Did you eat lunch?" What cloud-gazing has to do with the next big move in Wheat -- well, that's the story for today.

Imagine if there was a similarly "calm" and "quiet" spot in a financial market's price chart that portended a powerful change in trend? You could use it to safely position for that move long before the "tempest" came in and turned prices on their head.Well -- in the world of Elliott wave analysis, there is one single pattern that does just that: a triangle.

For Elliott Wave analysis, “knowing” does not come from a feeling. It comes from any number of clear and objective FACTS that signal whether NOW is the time to stay in OR get out of certain high-probability trade set-ups. These are: Compelling wave patterns, satisfied Fibonacci time or price relationships, and sustained moves above or below critical trendlines -- to name a few.

On a good day, a market's Elliott wave structure offers a gentle nudge and quiet whisper to start looking in its direction. On a really good day, said structure grabs an analyst by the shirt collar, shakes him/her silly, and screams "Look at me! LOOK AT ME!" On July 15, Elliott Wave International's chief commodity expert Jeffrey Kennedy experienced the latter in regard to Cocoa futures. And, in the July 15 Daily Futures Junctures, he tells the "exciting" story for all to hear, and see.

As long as you know how to type, few things are easier than entering an online trading order. What's difficult is winning on those trades. "Ease of trading" does not equal "ease of winning," yet inexperienced traders confuse the two all the time. Is it any wonder, then, that statistically only about 5% of futures traders make money over the long haul?

Contracting triangles can be both frustrating and exciting. They are sideways, corrective price moves that consist of five waves labeled A, B, C, D and E. The frustrating part is that they can go through all kinds of gyrations before finally ending in a strong thrust up or down. And that's the exciting part: After a market has contracted in a triangle pattern, it expands -- and here is a real-life example...

According to conventional economic wisdom, outside "fundamentals" are to financial price trends what clapping is to an applause-o-meter. A positive response from the audience -- loud cheers, a standing ovation, and foot thumping -- makes the meter go up. AND a negative response -- low boos, awkward quiet, and empty stares -- causes it to turn down....

Corn made headlines on Tuesday, April 14, as prices rallied "the most in two weeks on speculation that wet, cold weather in the Midwest this week will delay planting in the U.S...." The really interesting question is: If this week's weather in the Midwest been warm and sunny, would corn rally anyway? From an Elliott wave perspective, the answer is yes...

The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
