I would rather trade on weekdays going in and out of the market before TradeSim System stops trading on weekends.<\/p>\n<p>I should also consider upgrading my cellular to a smartphone for updates on price quotes on a more regular basis. This keeps me in sync with the market.<\/p>\n<p>With the lag in the tradeSim system in executing my contracts, I should invest few hours in advance before any price change takes place that affect my position value, causing unnecessary losses.<\/p>\n<p>This past week, December wheat prices rose from a low of $846.6 to $860.20. Similarly, corn prices rose from a low of $626.3 to $634.6.\u00a0I think prices for wheat and corn will trend down at the beginning of this coming week. Therefore, for next week or so, I will stick with short on wheat and\/or short on corn in the first three days. Later on, depending on the market\u00a0situation\u00a0 I might stay on or change my position to long again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZWZ13-wheat-dailyOHLC-chart-png1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-85\" title=\"December wheat daily prices (until Friday, Oct 19th)\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZWZ13-wheat-dailyOHLC-chart-png1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZWZ13-wheat-dailyOHLC-chart-png1.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZWZ13-wheat-dailyOHLC-chart-png1-300x219.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZCZ13-corn-dailyOHLC-chart-png.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-86\" title=\"Daily price of corn futures (until Oct 22nd, Monday)\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZCZ13-corn-dailyOHLC-chart-png.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZCZ13-corn-dailyOHLC-chart-png.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/vyow\/files\/2012\/10\/ZCZ13-corn-dailyOHLC-chart-png-300x219.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Be confident in my speculation!
