Trading commodity futures and options involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors. You should carefully consider whether trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances, knowledge and financial resources. Corn surged higher today (9/1), reaching its highest price since June 2009. Today's rally gave me a buy signal for corn on the daily chart. This is the fourth buy signal I've seen for corn in the past four weeks. Although the U.S. Department of Agricultures said in an August 12th report that corn yields would be 1.9% more than 2009's record, recent high temperatures and lack of rainfall in the Midwest may curb production. The ever present news story of Russian drought, cattle feeders switching from wheat to corn and a lower US dollar continue to add support. Additionally today's positive outlook on a global economic rebound should provide additional fuel to the bull camp as a booming economy tends to boost demand for commodities.

About the author
Welcome to my page! My name is Larry Baer and I am a senior broker with Zaner Group. I have been in the futures industry for thirty years and my prior experience includes a membership at the Chicago Board of Trade. During my ten years on the trading floor, I traded and managed a futures and options operation which serviced both retail and institutional clients. I am also the author of the Trader's Tool Box. While I have a strong respect for market fundamentals, I truly believe in the old adage, "the trend is your friend." And I have made the trend my best friend. I utilize a matrix of common technical indicators that when viewed together, generates a much stronger trading signal combined, than when viewed alone. The blend of this matrix with my own insights offers a complete technical picture of the markets. This is not a trading system, but a trading strategy which can assist or complement your own trading plan and style. If my three decades in the markets has taught me one thing, it's that the needs of traders vary as much as traders themselves. You may think you need full service when you don't, and often, vice-versa. Your trading style may be suited for tailored trading platform you are not aware of. My role is first, to help define your needs and to build a relationship from that point. Choosing the right broker is key to your trading goals. Here is what I offer my clients: - Trading Platform matching, training and backup.
- One-on-one consultation
- Risk-appropriate strategies which emphasize options on futures
- The Personal Touch: Guidance, assistance and customization of services
