    Likewise I am short on the Jul-Dec Soybean Meal product. However If you look at the other spreads, the spreads are trending up.

    Oh, Correction: MY short spreads are trending up.

    Nice graphic. I should implement something like that.

    Long Jul KC / Short Jul Chi Wheat @ 25.75 based on the crop scout report. Average yield estimates just slightly over last year disaster when this same spread was at 110...This last downward movement on KW based on "rain relief " smelled so much like BS...

    Out of the short Jul/Long Dec Soymeal spread.

    Anybody think Soymeal is going to take a sudden dip like July of last year?

  7. Tradator, on the KC/Chicago spread, what is it that drives the price difference between the two contracts? Do you just essentially expect demand to be higher for KC compared to ZW?

    No idea. Good trade. What was the reason?

    Not demand, supply... During all winter we got these recurring comments about HRW bad shape with winterkill, drought...And suddenly in April it rains and it is supposed to cure everything... This spread goes from 50 to 20...Bullshit... The crop is just in slightly better shape than last year when this spread was at 110...Meanwhile SRW crop is in good shape and the demand side hasn't really changed in the last 2 months...Perhaps I am wrong , I rarely trade on Fundamentals but i think there is more upside than downside here.
