• No new action is currently recommended for 2023 Chicago wheat. The wheat market has continued to be dominated by lower world export prices that have stymied US export sales and depressed US prices. In early December, Grain Market Insider recommended taking advantage and making a sale on a short covering rally which was sparked by several Chinese purchases of US wheat. Since then, China has been silent in the US wheat export market, and prices remain somewhat elevated. Any remaining 2023 soft red winter wheat should be getting priced into market strength. Grain Market Insider won’t have any “New Alerts” for 2023 Chicago wheat – either Cash, Calls, or Puts, as we have moved focus onto 2024 and 2025 Crop Year Opportunities.
• Grain Market Insider sees a continuing opportunity to sell half of your July ‘24 590 Chicago Wheat puts at approximately 67 cents in premium minus fees and commission. Last August Grain Market Insider recommended buying July ’24 590 Chicago wheat puts for approximately 31 cents in premium plus commission and fees to protect the downside from potential price erosion. At the time, US export demand was very weak with lower world export prices, and July Chicago wheat had just broken through support near 610.  The breaking of 610 support increased the risk of the market retreating further. Since that time July ’24 Chicago wheat has dropped about 110 cents, with the July ’24 590 Chicago wheat puts gaining about 200% in value. Though world export prices remain low, plenty of time remains to market the ’24 crop, and following this market drop, any increase in demand or threat of yield loss could rally prices.  Grain Market Insider recommends selling half of the previously recommended July ’24 590 Chicago wheat puts to lock in gains in case prices rally back, and holding the remaining puts, which will continue to protect any unsold bushels if prices erode further.
• No action is currently recommended for 2025 Chicago Wheat. In mid-February, July ’25 Chicago wheat broke through the bottom of the long established 632 – 685 trading range to a new low just below 600. For now, that new low is holding, and the market is correcting its oversold condition. So far, Grain Market Insider’s strategy for the 2025 crop year has been to sit tight. However, if prices rally toward the mid-600s, we will consider taking advantage of the still historically good prices to make sales recommendations.

To date, Grain Market Insider has issued the following Chicago wheat recommendations:

Above: With falling Russian and Black Sea export prices still pressuring the wheat market, May Chicago wheat remains in a downtrend, which is showing signs of being oversold. Assuming the current trend remains, the next major support level below the market may come in around 470 – 488. If the market does turn back higher, initial resistance may come in near 555, with heavy resistance up above around 590 – 600.

• No new action is recommended for 2024 Chicago wheat. Since the early December runup on Chinese buying, the July ’24 contract has gradually stair stepped its way lower and erased those gains. In the meantime, managed funds continue to hold a sizeable, short position that could trigger another short covering rally if a bullish impetus enters the market. At the end of August, Grain Market Insider recommended purchasing July 590 puts to prepare for further price erosion. Although, if the market receives the needed stimulus to move prices back toward this summer’s highs, Grain Market Insider is prepared to recommend adding to current sales levels and possibly even purchasing call options to protect those sales. Otherwise, the current recommended put position will add a layer of protection if prices erode further, and Grain Market Insider will be prepared to recommend covering some of those puts to offset much of the original cost and move toward a net neutral cost for the remaining position.

Managed funds continue to hold a significant short position which is supportive and could move prices toward the 584 – 618 resistance area if they choose to cover. For now, if prices continue to retreat, the next support level below the market remains between 533 and 540.

If prices continue above that, the next major resistance level may come in around 635 – 650. Otherwise, if they turn back lower, major support below 555 may come in around 540.
