    Hello Art.

    Be aware that the Calendar Spreads or other Spreads need to be very careful to them.

    Please allow me to tell you some things for your protection.

    The Markets for to trade Gold or Currencies work 23 hours in 24 hours that have a day.

    CBOT Wheat, KCBT Wheat and Minneapolis Wheat have trade for 17 hours and 35 minutes in the 24 hours that have a day.

    I believe that is almost impossible someone to watch all the above trading Sessions in the time that exist trade to them.

    What is mean that ?

    Futures Markets are create it to lose someone in the short term or in the long term time period.

    Regular Humans usually have a work and spend there at least 8 hours time shift,

    have a Wife and have Children.

    As you can understand all the above things need time.

    So, someone can watch the Markets very little in time.

    But suppose that you find the time to trade the Markets.

    Humans need at least 8 hours per day to sleep.

    Also, time differences from were live someone with the hours that are open the Markets make the trading to them difficult.

    Suppose now for to mitigate the problem of the time to create some robotic trading signals and to execute trades with your Brokerage Firm based on them.

    The Markets usually from time to time have a huge Volatility based in many factors.

    So, robotic trading signals are very dangerous for to have huge losses with my opinion.

    All the above things i tell it to you for to protect you from trading losses.

    Now i will speak you a little for the Wheats that are in the U.S.A Markets.

    Need someone for to have a serious trading in the Wheat to pay for Subscriptions relative to it, to study them for to take trading decissions.

    All that need to have and the many money for to aquire them.

    Also, you need a Technical Analysis Software for to create there trading signals and to test them.

    By my side, i have the Technical Analysis Software Metastock for the last 26 years.

    I have try with it a huge number of Indicators and that likes me a lot because i know and a little the Metastock Formula Language, so it is more easy to me to create my own things there.

    To help you further i want to tell you that likes me the different Oscillators there which as the more intresting to me is the CMO Chande Momentum Oscillator plus the moving averages that you can create there.

    More love i believe that have in the moving averages!

    I hope all the above words of me to help you in your trading.

    Kind Regards,

    George Kanellopoulos.

    On top of my head:

    - I think the guidance forbiding the imports of used cooking oil is a game changer for ZL. IMO ZL can come back to the market regime we had in 21 and 22 so I bought summer spreads.
    - Canola spreads are very low whereas the balance sheet will be one of the tightest of the last 10 years and rapeseed remain way more expensive.
