Technically in the October contract, we are at an interesting level of 124.00, which appears to be recent resistance.<\/p>\n<p>As slaughter numbers continue to rise due to higher grain prices we see the market saturated with supply. (In the coming months look for this same slaughter cycle to be supportive of 2013 contracts due to lack of supply). We have 2 reports Friday afternoon after the close; a Cold Storage report and Cattle on Feed that I believe will also be favorable to a short position.<\/p>\n<p>The 1st chart below is the October contract only and the 2nd chart is the spread that we will be trading.<\/p>\n<p>SELLING the October 2012 contract<br \/>\nBUYING the April 2013 contract<\/p>\n<p>Premium of 9.20 to the BUY side (GTC)<\/p>\n<p>Risk will be 7.80 level (STOP ON CLOSE) \u2026 ($560.00)<br \/>\nOBJ will be 12.20 level (LIMIT ORDER) \u2026 $1,200.00<\/p>\n<p>Initial margin for this spread is $810.00<\/p>\n<p>For those not looking to spread the market, consider the following:<\/p>\n<p>SELLING the October contract 123.50 \u2026 (risk the 125.00 level with an objective of 119.00)<br \/>\nBUYING the October 120.00 put for $800.00.<\/p>\n<p>Have a look:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/4646.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"501\" height=\"843\" \/><\/p>\n<p>STOP ORDERS DO NOT NECESSARILY LIMIT YOUR LOSS TO THE STOP PRICE BECAUSE STOP ORDERS, IF THE PRICE IS HIT, BECOME MARKET ORDERS AND, DEPENDING ON MARKET CONDITIONS, THE ACTUAL FILL PRICE CAN BE DIFFERENT FROM THE STOP PRICE.
