Many years ago, back in the age of the dinosaurs it seems, finished cattle weighed around 1000 pounds and you could fit 40 of them in a single railroad cars. That is why we old time cattle traders still refer to buying or selling cattle as buying or selling cars.<br /><br />I will tell you something about cattle - they trade completely different, as do the hogs, than the grains or gold or silver or any other commodity for that matter. That is because the price is set every single week and can vary quite widely depending on beef demand and packer demand for the animals which can fluctuate quite rapidly from week to week. With hogs the prices paid in the cash markets can swing wildly from DAY TO DAY!<br /><br />Reversals are quite violent and often quite unexpected. Be careful if you decide to trade them.Trader Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05484363461047659198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-77453884724035587022014-10-10T19:59:21.741-07:002014-10-10T19:59:21.741-07:00Has anyone noticed that Harvey Organs blog has mys...Has anyone noticed that Harvey Organs blog has mysteriously vanished....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06691090216374052492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-75893039904651540172014-10-10T17:50:05.571-07:002014-10-10T17:50:05.571-07:00Flurple, Mark will be back posting here again when...Flurple, Mark will be back posting here again when his beloved central banks come back with more QE to try and drive the stock markets to world record highs again.<br /><br />Marks says "its never been so easy for central banks" heck so they might as well just start another round of QE now, why wait?
