Fading the Soybean Oil premium.Jumping straight into the technicals, we see a head and shoulder pattern on the daily Soybean Oil chart. With the neckline now broken, it seems a bearish set-up might be possible.
While the technicals are important, understanding where the current price level of soybean oil is in context to other products could help us build further conviction on this idea.
Firstly, the Soybean crush components. Currently, Soybean Oil trades at a pretty large premium against Soybean and Soybean Meal. Looking at the price ratios of Soybean Oil/Soybean & Soybean Oil/Soybean Meal, we also see that both have been trading out of the ‘normal’ range since 2021. With both ratios now trending lower and knocking on the door of the normal range again, we will watch closely to see what happens as we approach this critical juncture.
Secondly, Soybean Oil vs its substitute, Crude Palm Oil. Again, we see Soybean Oil as the outlier here, as prices diverge from Crude Palm Oil, with Soybean Oil trading higher. Looking at the bottom chart, we can clearly see the Soybean Oil/Crude Palm Oil ratio deviating from the average range established in 2018 – 2021. With this ratio recently trending lower, a break below the upper level of the range established (dotted line) could accelerate the closing of this premium, as seen in the 2021 to 2022 period, where the ratio collapsed swiftly.
The technically bearish setup, coupled with Soybean Oil’s relative valuation against the soybean complex and Crude Palm Oil on fundamental standpoint, makes a decent case to short Soybean Oil Futures from here.
To express this view, we can consider setting up the trade in a few ways:
1) An outright short on Soybean Oil using the CME Soybean Oil Futures, at the current level of 60.05, setting our stop at 67 and taking profit at 42, with each 1-point move in the Soybean Oil Futures contract equal to 600 USD.
2) A spread trade between Soybean Oil & Crude Palm Oil, by taking a short position in the CME Soybean Oil Futures contract and a long position in the CME Crude Palm Oil futures contract. Such a setup could potentially allow you to stay profitable even if you turn out to be ‘wrong’ in your market views if it eventually proves that crude palm oil has been underpriced and the soybean premium is closed by crude palm oil rallying. For this trade, it is trickier to set up due to the contract size and tick value difference.

SOYBEAN OIL // long term scenariosI don't know anything about Soybean Oil, but I watch the price that shows everything I need to know.
This is quite a long term one since it's the weekly, but it's so beautiful! Although the primary trend is still long, market participants printed a nice impulse wave on the way down. This last couple of slow waves make up a correction of the impulse wave while crawling up, and price has just tested the last weekly south breakout.
From here, the break of this countertrend takes aim at this market , shorts will be ready to jump in.
An early sign happens first with the break of the last weekly north breakout, but the second one is better. If price reaches it, be patient. It may slow down there, even make a small countertrend, but a break of this zone can take the price all the way to the next weekly north breakout, that's happen to be close to the target fibo 138.2
The early sign becomes valid only when this week's closing makes the breakout a breakout (higher than the previous high).
The countertrend is valid at the moment, but the daily printed a nice shooting star...
Thanks for reading my analysis!🤘🏽

Review of multiple markets7. 19. 22 Euro futures 6E1! Dxy Wheat ZW1! Soybean oil ZL1! This is a quick review of a few tradable futures markets. I show what attracts me to look at a market, and sometimes that requires that I use much larger time frames. I used to Euro futures as an example of longer-term trading and give some possibilities for Traders who don't want to DayTrade as much as they want to hold longer-term positions. I am not an expert on using Futures currencies for qualified accounts, but you should be able to trade Futures currencies in your IRA... check with your broker. I was a little sloppy with my Fibonacci numbers, but this is nothing new and I don't have time to do another video, and I know most of you will be able to know what I'm saying. The numbers are on the chart, my description what's less than perfect, as usual. The most important point on this video is to find a market and a time frame that you relate to. It is very easy to bypass great opportunity because the timeframe you are evaluating and your initial biases don't connect with a true opportunity of that market.
How do we ride through the selloff storm?Joining a global commodities rout, Soybean Oil had a rough time in the past 2 weeks, tumbling close to 22%. The move precipitated after breaking the 6-month uptrend and has struggled to find support until now.
After bouncing off the $65 support level and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement, prices seem to have found a floor, ready to make the next leg upwards.
Zooming out to the daily candles, we see Relative Strength Index (RSI) deeply oversold, with only 2 other occasions since 2015 where the RSI reached such levels. One was in 2015 and the other one in 2020.The 2015 instance was followed a 50% price increase from the low of the RSI and the 2020 one was followed by a massive 196% price increase.
The sharp selloff, strong support levels, and historical precedence allow us to favor the long side for Soybean Oil.
Entry at 66.87, stops at 58.3. Target at 78.9.

Potential Bearish ContinuationPreferred Case: on the H4, with price moving in a descending trend channel and moving below the ichimoku cloud, we have a bearish bias that price will drop from the pivot at 80.73 in line with the 78.6% fibonacci projection and swing high to the 1st support at 76.83 in line with the horizontal swing low and 78.6% fibonacci projection.
Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price may reverse off the pivot and rise to the 1st resistance at 84.40 in line with the swing high.
