What I went right ?
Based on my last week’s analysis. The huge demand from the market would raise up the world price of crops. Therefore this week I chose to hold long positions on wheat, corn and ‘crazy crop’-soybeans before the coming of harvest time. It turned out to be a right decision, because I earned around 5000 dollars. Here is my account information:

Offset all contracts I know the increasing trend will stop sometime and lasts for a while, but it is hard to predict the particular time. So when I noticed a big increase in price, which lasts for three days. I chose to offset all contracts. Luckily, there was a negative change next day. Therefore I thought I made a right decision. |

Congratulations! It defiantly feels good to start figuring this game out. I made consistent losses for weeks before I made any sort of strategic wins. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, I am looking forward to your good news!!!!!
