Apparently there are rumours that Russia will delay the introduction of export tariffs
Agreed.. but my point was that it’s the speculative funds in the US that drive the market... it’s from nowhere else !!
Which is why oil went negative last spring because they had to move it before the option expired but there was no storage to take it.I disagree. The speculators exaggerate market movements but they always come back to supply and demand. More players in the market add liquidity. The speculators will short grain futures as much as they buy long positions if they see a market under or over valued.
Longs have to sell eventually and shorts have to buy before the positions expire and they have to take delivery of or supply physical grain to futures locations. These provide opportunities for growers to trade.
If you could only tell me now when to sell my grain ... top of the market or near as please!!!
I’m running my own and still get pisswd off for getting it wrong!!!Well, if I knew that, I wouldn’t have to p*ss about running someone else’s farm and asking questions in here...!

Good advice for everyone ... cheers @BriselDon’t worry about hindsight. Just have a strategy that gets you a good average, not guess that this years price movements will be the same next year. Be content that you tried your best.
Ain't that the truthWell, if I knew that, I wouldn’t have to p*ss about running someone else’s farm and asking questions in here...!
My only add on, would be :Listen to the experts, the merchants and your peers, than make your own decisions. Also if you can see a good profit try not to be greedy and if the market is dropping like a stone, try not to panic.Good advice for everyone ... cheers @Brisel
Sorry, not very up to date, but I done a couple of loads mid December for £390 and it was picked up the next day or so.so has anyone got any linseed out of contract to sell , any prices ????
This is what pools are for... you don’t make any more money, but you have someone to blame it on.I’m running my own and still get pisswd off for getting it wrong!!!
