Sure Thing Commodity Trading: How Seasonal Factors Influence Commodity Prices by Larry Williams

The authors have extensively researched the seasonal tendencies of virtually all major commodities going as far back as 1955. The result...over 50 empirically derived seasonal trades (on average, about one a week).

Each individual trade is provided with commentary and clear, concise, easy to follow rules that tell when to get in and when to get out of each trade. Each "trade" is documented with results that would have been obtained each year for all the years studied.

The net result: each and every seasonal tendency traded by the authors' rules (for the entire period) would have been highly profitable.

The commodities, where seasonal tendencies have been isolated and specific rules formulated are:

  • Cattle (5 different seasonal trades)
  • Copper (4 different seasonal trades)
  • Corn (4 different seasonal trades)
  • Cotton
  • Eggs (3 different seasonal trades)
  • Flax
  • Hogs (4 different seasonal trades)
  • Oats (4 different seasonal trades)
  • Orange Juice
  • Plywood
  • Pork Bellies (6 different seasonal trades)
  • Potatoes
  • Soybeans (8 different seasonal trades)
  • Soy Bean Meal (2 different seasonal trades)
  • Soy Bean Oil
  • Wheat (4 different seasonal trades)

plus...Commodity Spreads, based on seasonal tendencies in Corn, Chicago Wheat, Cattle and Pork Bellies.
