Here's a nice example of a balanced market moving from Premium (green) to Discount (red shaded area), with a stop raid annotated. Really Nice example!

Anyway, moving forward.. Anyone watching Sugar?

AI Overview

In sugar trading, "ICE" refers to the Intercontinental Exchange, which hosts the world's primary global benchmarks for trading raw and refined sugar. It offers standardized futures and options contracts used by producers, consumers, and investors for speculation, hedging, and physical price discovery. [1, 2, 3, 4]The ICE exchange offers three primary sugar contracts: [1]

Sugar No. 11 Futures (SB): The global benchmark for pricing raw cane sugar, traded in U.S. cents per pound. Each contract represents 112,000 pounds (about 50 metric tons). [1, 2, 3]
Sugar No. 16 Futures: Similar to No. 11, but specifically designated for raw cane sugar delivered domestically within the United States, operating under a U.S. quota system. [1, 2]
White Sugar Futures (WC): Based in London (ICE Europe), this contract prices refined white sugar and is quoted in U.S. dollars per metric ton. [1, 2]

Participants trade these contracts to lock in future prices, protecting themselves against volatile crop conditions, weather patterns, and currency movements
