Tuesday

More bean sales to china, strong oil, but weak meal leaves beans 1 3/4 better at the end, 1705 1/4.  Wheat up 21 1/4 to 1083 1/4.  Path of least resistance.  Corn picked up another 3 cents, 803 1/4.  Rice buyer surprised quite a few but the spreads had a bid too, so I'd have to guess that something is stirring in the export world.  1675, plus 45.  Would expect that number to attract some new cash sales.  All the grain rolls are still quite orderly.   Dow ugly and got uglier, 33,160, off 805 points, while bonds followed thru for another 29 tic gain.  Isn't it amazing when an 800 point break in the Dow is kind of a footnote?  These systems are designed to pick off your emotions, not your sense.  Every trade, before you pull the trigger, ask yourself, does this trade make sense, or am I being emotionally lead into a trap?
