    no, you can buy puts. the problem with all wheat options at this point is that they reflect huge volatility, so you will be spending a lot of money on premium.

    the great thing about wheat is, when prices get high, farmers plant the sh*t out of it and the next year you will have huge crops, thus lower prices.

  2. this is not a gamble.. This is an EDUCATED GUESSWORK with very low probability of failure. Maybe even less than the ~10% that was thought to be.

    That's not a bad idea for what he wants.

    Bet the favorite to show - each bet may average the 90/10% and pay a 10-20% return or so.

    Problem is winning 5 or so consecutive bets has a lousy overall chance of success. Also his bet will decrease payout for every winner.

    Still, it could be done in an afternoon - with no knowledge of horses or the market.

  7. There will be dozens of stocks that will double within the next year, why is everyone so negative? Which ones? I don't know but some stocks could double in six months, so I could wait 6 months before even making a move.
