Grain market:
Now in order to predict price fluctuations you need to know about missiles and air defense systems, P/E ratios and other multiples are a thing of the past, and so is a CFA degree.
I should have studied tourism. I’d know where to get away from it all. Hello!
This issue was prepared with the direct participation of analysts of trading platforms eOil.ru and IDK.ru. It provides an assessment of the situation on the global and Russian market.
The USDA report confirmed good gross harvest volumes for wheat, corn and soybeans. The data did not have a big effect on the market, but in general it is clear that there is no strong fundamental support for price growth at the moment. We can expect a 5 — 10% increase by mid-May, no more than that.
The prospect of developing exchange trading of grain in Russia may stumble upon the necessity of dumping to conclude as many contracts as possible in conditions of shortage of reserve currencies already this fall. Yes, it will be possible to get some quotations inside the country, but they will all rest on a certain price bar in order to be able to carry out export operations in a large volume. However, this is only a theory for now. All of a sudden, all the BRICS countries will trade for rubles.
If the frenzy in the Middle East intensifies, it threatens to shift even more trade routes out of the region. And no airplanes will fly there. And that’s all outright harm.
Energy market:
Well… the Persians sent their fiery greetings to the Jews. And they said no way, we’ll ship you something soon. And so on and so forth. And it should be like before, people go out with clubs into the field and there, locally, without traumatizing the civilian population to find out all the issues.
OPEC in its report cheerfully wrote that we are going to see an increase in fuel demand. Of course we are. I bet everyone’s rushing to build up their strategic reserves. And what to do? In fact, the forecast of demand growth up to 107.3 million barrels per day in the 4th quarter of 2025 is a bit ambitious, but perhaps it will happen, but not due to the development of economies, but due to the growing horror on a planetary scale. And then all the excitement will die down. We will ride horses, if not two-headed ones.
People are seriously speculating about the price of oil per barrel at 100 dollars. Of course, it will continue to rise if you take Iran and Russia out of the market. You’ll get 150, you’ll get 200. And this will lead to higher inflation in the West, higher interest rates, cooler economies, higher unemployment. Only the collapse will happen a year after we reach, for example, 150 dollars per barrel. At the same time, somewhere in Tyumen, the same barrel will be available for 10 dollars. And with such a difference, the demand for small tankers and for desperate guys will increase.
USD/RUB:
Supplies of non-ferrous metals from Russia for trading on the London Stock Exchange will be stopped from April 14. This means that Russian companies will be selling their products at a discount, and in an unknown currency. No «pounds and sterlets» for you.
If the problem with payments for the supplied resources intensifies, it will lead to the fact that the balance of foreign trade will become negative, and this would be very unfortunate, because then the last of the money will have to be taken out of the pants to maintain the current exchange rate. It would be possible to somehow digest this situation with sanctions without the SWO, but with huge expenditures on defense, the prospects are bleak.
We are waiting for a slow, smooth weakening of the ruble during the year. For now we need to visit 95.50, then 97.00. Further on, it’s foggy.

Diesel Market Recommendations:
Buy: no.
Sale: no.
Support — 61602. Resistance — 77051.
Propane butane (Surgut), ETP eOil.ru

Buy: not yet.
Sell: on approach to 2420. Stop: 2450. Target: 2100.
Support — 2271. Resistance — 2440.
EUR/USD
Growth scenario: you should definitely not buy now. Most likely, the dollar will continue its strengthening for the next two weeks.
Downside scenario: it is possible to short from 1.0700. Given the lack of slowdown in inflation in the U.S., we can assume that the Fed will keep rates at 5.5% for a long time. However, they may not have to raise them even more.
Recommendations on euro/dollar pair:
Buy: no.
Sell: when approaching 1.0700. Stop: 1.0830. Target: 1.0360 (1.0000).
Support — 1.0447. Resistance — 1.0721.
USD/RUB
Growth scenario: hold longs. Talks that we are not being paid for the supply of resources are getting stronger. Also, the legalization of mining and cryptocurrencies in general raises questions, i.e. there is nothing to pay with, nothing to accept payments with. Talks about negotiations with Ukraine from our side are frankly alarming.
Downside scenario: we will not sell. None of the experts are seriously talking about the ruble strengthening.
Recommendations on dollar/ruble pair:
Buy: no. Who is in position from 92.79 and 92.90, keep stop at 90.00. Target: 97.00 (103.00, 112.00, 155.00).
Sale: no.
Support — 91.77. Resistance — 93.93.
RTSI
Growth scenario: we consider the June futures, expiration date is June 20. We are waiting for 116000 to be taken in order to consider buying. In our view, the economic environment is unhealthy because of the dim outlook.
Downside scenario: we keep short, slightly move the stop up, luckily it didn’t work, the 116000 area can be very viscous for the bulls to take.
Recommendations on the RTS index:
Buy: no.
Sell: No. Who is in position from 114900, move your stop to 115700. Target: 100000?!!!!
Support — 112430. Resistance — 119190.
