or perhaps you should learn to use Technicals to better your own trading and not worry about what others think or do.

Cheers

Well there you do have a point. I have tried. Read books about Fibonacci, Elliott wave, head and shoulders, volume verses movement etc.. but it just doesnt seem to stick. I seem to have a mental block somewhere.

Even reading this thread I am struggling. GBP had a huge collapse that was bound to lead to either a technical or fundamental bounce. That has happened so having little idea of its fundamentals but having seen a good rise, I am wondering whether to ride its upward momentum or sell out. At this level I cant get excited by the fundamentals either way.

Having read the thread, there is lots of advice about GBP, I just dont know what it means. Has GBP peaked or is it still trading upwards?

I fully accept that I dont understand technicals, which is why I read threads written by people who understand them much better. It is just a shame that even after having put in the effort to read the thread I am none the wiser.

Abrak,

Just start by learning Support, resistance, (horizontal), pivot and candles. Learn from the longer timeframes monthly , weekly, daily, entries 4hr and 1hr. Forget about all the other stuff you hear about.

If you need help, let me know and i will post some explanations.

Cheers

SUGAR UPDATE.

take note Abrak.

Up another 6% last night. Has now turned into a parabolic trend that is just going straight up.

Well Brazil is having too much rain which negatively affects their harvesting hence less output.

India in drought which negatively effects their growing.

India has suffered drought like conditions last 2 months where they normally get solid monsoonal rain.

Reason price has surged so much last week is that even if it starts raining in India now it's too late the crop is damaged.

As a result can be very confident that will have the second consequetive supply shortage for year to September 2010.

India and Brazil are the two largest producers and India is the largest consumer. World wide Stocks of sugar have got low as well, and especially in India meaning India is going to have to pay up at high prices to import an additional 5-7mn tonnes of sugar (before drought forecast was for 1-2 mn tonnes of imports.)

Global demand is approx 160k tonnes per year, and supply will likely be 150-155k tonnes per year. THe year to sep 2009 is resulting in a shortfall of approx 10mn tonnes, hence why global stocking is low.

The thing will sugar is now everyone knows this and there is no supply response that can come on for another 12 months due to growing time. So this means as an actual physical shortage is felt then consumers food producers etc will be forced to pay higher prices.

THe other factor is that demand stay relatively steady no matter what the price is. SO sure higher prices will result in slighlty less consumption but not to the same effect as other commodities where higher prices really stop demand.

Thinks that's it in a nutshell....Reckon it's only the last week or two that the speculators have really jumped in.....Before that it was too risky as Indian rain could dramatically improve the prospects for their crop.

Why I just entered.The techs are right and the Fundamentals have just proved themselves.

THE END.

The most valuable piece of advice I've seen offered on this blog so far.

Paulo1,

One thing to consider when it comes to production is Brazil. Two thirds of all plants can use sugar cane to either produce ethanol or sugar. Less than 50% of sugar cane is actually used to produce sugar. Obviously sugar prices are making new highs while ethanol's price is 60% below where it was a year ago. It is therefore likely to switch to producing less ethanol and more sugar.

Brazil is also one of the largest producers of ethanol, so usually the price of sugar is quite highly correlated with that of ethanol. The high price of sugar in 2006 coincided with record ethanol prices (over 3x their current level).

hi paulo great day thanks ,good week

Nice to hear. Keep in mind that these signals are targeting atleast 100 pips per day, sometimes they will 200 or 500 but thats a bonus. so once you get 100 , get your stops in the money etc. Protect your profits.
