Re: Corn Holding Higher Low/Trout

Hey Trades, Yeah that's a cool chart. Agreed on the the problem w/ analyzing just the front month. ETF makes a lot of sense. My interest in corn is from a hedging perspective. Buyers never quite know when or how much they're going to buy so some times it's not a bad idea to buy puts on rallies. But at some point -- that point when/where the market stabalizes and starts to build a floor -- it won't make sense to have downside protection -- w/ options anyway. Same deal w/ gold for me.

Yeah shoot me an e-mail if you want a pdf of that book. Thanks for pointing out the typos. It's not like McGraw-Hill this time around where you have 4 different editors go over it.
