fundamentals = down technicals= up volatility. v low time to buy some options! - maybe a staddle or two?! thoughts?
Sugar is deemed to be a smoother trending market. Do a trade that has a bullish bias instead of straddles/strangles.
this week's rally had more to do with worries of fluxo, a brazilian producer, getting killed on it's short hedges. the ICE had to issue a statement limiting the trading activities of fluxo. when the mkt smelled a short in trouble, they gunned the market.
i just bought 15 20.00 march 09 sugar calls for 30.0 a piece. itll either turn out to be the best or worst $4500.00 i've ever spent
There is some interesting action today. Up almost 7% as of mid-day. Is it just ag-fever across the board or what? Any idea what is fueling the sugar rally today? It was flat this morning and last night after the refinery fire in Savannah.
