Grain market:
Hello!
Turkey signed a memorandum on the supply of Ukrainian grain to the world market. This event pushed prices down. But now it will be harder and harder to go down with every cent.
The harvest promises to be rich, so there should be no unrest among buyers. Sellers would benefit now from the hype, but among traders there is a growing understanding that there will be enough grain for everyone. Hence, it is difficult to assume that by winter, after the fall, which is unfolding before our eyes, the market will be able to rise above the current values by more than 10%.
In terms of speculation, buying from 650.0 cents per bushel in wheat and 420.0 cents per bushel in corn would be ideal. Domestic exporters are preparing for the fact that while the US dollar is worth 55 rubles, the proceeds in rubles from exports will be ridiculous.
Reading our forecasts, you could make money on the euro/dollar pair by taking a downward move from 1.0600 to 1.0120 points.
Energy market:
«Countries that impose a ceiling on the price of Russian oil will not be able to receive it», say powerful figures in the Russian government one after another.
Outrageous things are happening before our eyes: it turns out that where the market is not beneficial to Washington, it must cease to exist.
But what about competition, free pricing, balance of supply and demand?
But no way. The truth is that there are many ways to make money.
The Western world needs more fossil fuels. The environmental agenda is no longer in vogue. Need cheap gas? «So … fly to the Mars,» is what one wants to say to them.
Europe has already allowed Russia to supply oil to third countries so that there is no shortage anywhere. And she herself, the Old Woman, calmly buys what Sovcomflot supplies her, which is under sanctions, only under the Liberian flag. Well, that’s it… And everyone is good from Russian oil, and not just the Indians and the Chinese.
But in June, oil from Russia was not supplied to Japan. Well, okay.
After Biden’s disgusting trip to our incredibly dear Prince Salman, may his sorrows never be overcome, the Western world cannot count on cheap hydrocarbons. Oil below $90 per barrel is not yet visible, but a fall to this level is possible.
Note that if the data on US GDP for the second quarter at the end of the week comes out worse than expected, then oil may look at the level of 80.00 dollars per barrel.
USD/RUB:
The rate cut by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation by 1.5% did not lead to the weakening of the ruble. It must be admitted that the situation in the economy is better than expected. The trade balance continues to be positive. Inflation is slowing down. Nabiullina promised to lower the rate further. Cheap money should help deal with the shock of February 24 this year.
The losses of the West due to the sanctions turned out to be very sensitive. No one will completely block Russian exports, which means that the inflow of foreign currency into the country will remain at a high level.
Four governments have already reformed in Europe: Great Britain, Italy, Bulgaria and Estonia, and we have not even started anything yet. Comrade Scholz from Germany is still ripening, but he is already on the way.
In addition, the elections to the US Congress are coming soon, and then the impeachment of Biden, and everyone is at the negotiating table. By winter, we are waiting for the return of Visa and Mastercard payment systems to the country with apologies and reduced service fees, as well as the release of funds from the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. Let’s buy something with that money. Maybe some state.
Wheat No. 2 Soft Red. CME Group
Let’s look at the volumes of open interest of managers in wheat. You should keep in mind that these are data from three days ago (for Tuesday of the last week), they are also the most recent of those published by the CME Group exchange.
Over the past week, the difference between long and short positions of managers increased by 1.1 thousand contracts. Both buyers and sellers entered the market. At the same time, there are more bears on the market at the moment.
Growth scenario: consider the September futures, the expiration date is September 14th. While we do nothing. We are waiting for the arrival of prices at the level of 650.0 cents per bushel. We will buy there.
Fall scenario: yes, we are falling, but there are no interesting options for entering shorts. Out of the market.
Recommendations for the wheat market:
Purchase: when approaching 650.0. Stop: 630.0. Target: 860.0 cents per bushel.
Sale: no.
Support — 640.0. Resistance — 845.4.
Let’s look at the volumes of open interest of corn managers. You should keep in mind that these are data from three days ago (for Tuesday of the last week), they are also the most recent of those published by the CME Group exchange.
Last week the difference between long and short positions of managers decreased by 25.2 thousand contracts. The bulls are fleeing the market.
Growth scenario: consider the September futures, the expiration date is September 14th. We came to an interesting area for shopping. If there is a green daily candle, you can buy. We do not have high hopes for the long. The market may continue to fall. Fall scenario: we will not sell from current levels. Yes, the market may fall to the level of 420.0 cents per bushel, but this assumption is better to work out on a small time scale. Our recommendation for daily candle trading is out of the market for the time being.
Recommendations for the corn market:
Purchase: when a green daily candle occurs. Stop: 540.0. Target: 685.0 cents per bushel.
Sale: no.
Support — 559.0. Resistance — 601.6.
Soybeans No. 1. CME Group
Growth scenario: consider the September futures, the expiration date is September 14th. Basically, nothing has changed. We remain out of the market. Judging by the behavior of palm oil, a further fall is possible.
Fall scenario: we continue to believe that there is a threat of a market collapse. You can look for sales opportunities.
Recommendations for the soybean market: Purchase: no.
Sale: now and on the rise to 1370.0. Stop: 1396.0. Target: 1150.0 cents per bushel.
Support — 1146.2. Resistance — 1457.2.

Fall scenario: holding shorts. The market may leave at 15.20.
Recommendations for the sugar market:
Purchase: not yet.
Sale: no. Who are in positions from 19.40 and 19.00, move the stop to 19.10. Target: 15.20 cents a pound.
Support — 17.69. Resistance — 18.74.
Сoffee С, ICE
Growth scenario: we are considering the September futures, the expiration date is September 20. Let’s remove the recommendation to buy from the level of 180.00. Rather, it will have to be done from the level of 140.00.
Fall scenario: we will keep the previously open shorts. Stop at 220.0 survived. Let’s set a more aggressive target below: 140.00 cents per pound. Those interested can sell here.
Recommendations for the coffee market:
Purchase: when approaching 140.00. Stop: 120.00. Target: 180.00 cents per pound.

We’re looking at the volume of open interest of managers. You should keep in your mind that these are data from three days ago (for Tuesday of the past week), they are also the most recent of those published by the ICE exchange.
Over the past week, the difference between long and short positions of managers has increased by 10 thousand contracts. Bulls are trying to regain the initiative.
Growth scenario: consider the August futures, the expiration date is August 31. As long as the level of $108 per barrel holds, we will not see a large number of bulls on the market. We do not open new longs, we keep the old ones.
Fall scenario: it makes sense to continue to hold the short opened earlier from the level of 120.0. A fall to the area of 90.00 dollars per barrel is visible. It is possible to argue about the fall to the area of 80.00. Recommendations for the Brent oil market: Purchase: no. Who is in position from 100.00, keep the stop at 97.00. Target: $140.00 per barrel.

Sale: no.
Support — 6.670. Resistance is 8.747.
Gold. CME Group

Support — 1680. Resistance — 1804.
EUR/USD
Growth scenario: The ECB raised the rate by 0.5%, but this euro decision did not help. On Wednesday, the US Federal Reserve meeting, most likely after it, the pair will continue to fall. We don’t buy.
Fall scenario: we continue to assume that the pair is able to go to 0.9700. New positions can be opened from 1.0350.

Sale: when approaching 1.0350. Stop: 1.0430. Target: 0.9700.
Support — 1.0122. Resistance is 1.0363.
USD/RUB
Growth scenario: lowering the rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to 8% did not help the dollar. Pressure from exporters on the pair, which sell foreign exchange earnings, remains. At the same time, from a technical point of view, the level of 55.00 is a good area for buying the US currency. Those who wish can enter long. Who bought the dollar against the ruble from 54.00 hold positions.
Fall scenario: the Russian government will resist further strengthening of the ruble. We do not sell.
Recommendations for the dollar/ruble pair:
Purchase: now and when approaching 53.70. Stop: 52.70. Target: 73.00 rubles per dollar. Who is in position from 54.00, keep the stop at 52.70. Target: 73.00 rubles per dollar.
Sale: no.
Support — 53.71. Resistance — 59.00.
RTSI
Growth scenario: the stock market did not react in any way to the rate cut by the Central Bank. According to the classics, he should have grown, but nothing happened. Sales problems for Russian metallurgists and oilmen remain. If hydrocarbon exporters can count on an improvement in the situation, then metallurgists are currently in an extremely bad position due to Western sanctions. They don’t have a market right now. For the given day and hour we refrain from going long on the RTS index. If Sberbank starts showing signs of life, then we will revise our recommendations.
Fall scenario: we continue to hold short positions. The RTS index may touch the level of 120,000 points, but it is unlikely to succeed in rising higher. Recommendations for the RTS index:
Purchase: no.
Sale: no. Who is in position from 129000, keep stop at 123000. Target: 9400 0 points.
Support — 104440. Resistance — 118120.
