August Feeder cattle gapped below the 50-day moving average crossing at $231.69 thereby open the door for a possible test of May's low crossing at $221.15. The low-range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening when Thursday's day session begins trading. Stochastics and the RSI are oversold but remain neutral to bearish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. Closes above the 20-day moving average crossing at $237.19 would signal that a short-term low has been posted. First resistance is last-Wednesday's high crossing at $241.90. Second resistance is June's high crossing at $245.18. First support is today's low crossing at $226.70. Second support is May's low crossing at $221.15.

Thanks tallpine!

As mentioned several times recently, this is NOT a dome of death type blocking pattern like most other long lasting droughts in the Summer.

It's an extremely odd pattern that has lasted much longer than expected and probably related to the very warm temps in the Atlantic Ocean.

Regardless, odds are pretty high that it will be breaking down in early July. 

If that's the case, we may be at or close to the highs right now.

It's weather and I've been really wrong hundreds of times the last 40 years and will adjust that based on the latest information. 

I'm not suggesting selling but that's the set up right now. 

The models are turning wetter right now. If they verify, its over for the grains but earlier this month, the same thing looked likely. 

If they turn drier again (possible) you DON'T want to be short.........we can go much MUCH higher. 

This was the 2 week rain map from the last 18z GEFS.

C and S had a spike lower at the open, probably from this. 

We need the EE to get wetter than it is and match the GEFS(which has been too wet and not as good) but it also added rain this afternoon.
