Corn Indicator

I think I have a new and very reliable indicated for corn.

It's CSX railroad. Wait, stay with me and let me explain.
On Nov 23, 2016 CSX parked 90 grain cars on the siding in a town just 45 miles from the big agricultural area.
On Feb 1,2017 they took them away. Now look at a corn chart. Big long UP bar.
Yesterday the parked the grain cars on the siding again. Markets been done for about a week so nobody is selling corn.

So there is your indicator. Parked grain cars, market down. Moving grain cars, Market up.

Don't let Wayne try to convince you this was his idea. He will insist on getting royalties from it.
