On March 6, live cattle prices went to slaughter in their worst two-day setback in three months.

You know the expression, "You never see the bullet that kills you"? Well, in late August, this saying aptly applied to the mainstream financial analysis surrounding soybeans, when it was "taken out" by a sharp and sudden downturn. Here's a brief recap...

Commodities: "Simple" Elliott Does The Trick
Even basic Elliott wave analysis can put you miles ahead of other traders. Today's focus: lean hog futures
By Vadim Pokhlebkin

Vadim Pokhlebkin: Jeffrey, I don't think I'm alone in saying that whatever the problem, I prefer simple solutions. Now, you use Elliott wave analysis on commodities every day, and I've seen you make it both simple and complex. Which approach do you think is more effective? -- Jeffrey Kennedy: It depends. When the chart picture is not easy to recognize as any specific Elliott wave pattern, it forces you to "make it complicated" by using additional technical analysis tools. But let's look at a very recent example...

Anyone who's ever traded commodities knows they can turn faster than a cat stumbling on a dog park. You blink for half-a-second and "Poof!"-- the market trend whirls right around and dashes headlong into the opposite direction. Make no mistake, this is volatile territory. One way to help anticipate trend changes before they happen is to reduce the number of unknown variables in the mix. So, how do you do that?

Trading using technical indicators -- such as the MACD, for example, Moving Average Convergence-Divergence -- can do one of two things: help you or hinder you. Using them as a forecasting method alone can be about as predictable as flipping a coin. But when you combine them with other forms of technical analysis (i.e. the Wave Principle), the same MACD can be your new best friend.

Lately, the financial media has followed around the commodities sector like paparazzi pursues celebrities, tweeting: "OMG! Sugar soars to 30-year high," and "Grain Prices Busted: Corn caught with other crop supply!" In fact, paparazzis do have something in common with the mainstream financial observers: They also focus on the "external" factors. Elliott wave analysis, on the other hand, doesn't look at the externals.

Over the past few weeks, several of the biggest "supernovas" in the commodity universe have turned into falling meteors. To wit: From their respective February peaks, the alleged "grain king," wheat, has plunged 12% while the food forerunner, sugar, has soured to a near two-month low. Here's your chance to find an answer to the question, "Is this reversal just a brief detour on the way to higher highs?"

Commodities are physical assets with finite quantities, so it follows that such markets can conceivably react to news of supply disruptions, adverse weather, and the like. However, save for an irreversible crisis, these responses are temporary at best. When it comes to deciding the LONG-TERM trends in commodities, fundamentals fall shorter than a pygmy in the NBA playoffs.

These days, the mainstream commodity experts are more divided than the Team Edward versus Team Jacob "Twilight" fan base. One recent news item represents the optimists and reads, "Commodity boom will continue. These crucial goods are a safe haven in turbulent times." While another one right below it speaks for the bears: "Global Commodities Teeter On the Brink of Price Relapse." Then, there's the independent third party: EWI's chief commodity analyst and long-time Futures Junctures Service editor Jeffrey Kennedy.
