Has corn ever topped in September? 🌽 🤔

The answer would actually be no

Dec corn has never printed its highest price of the year in September

It’s also never posted its highs in October

The most interesting part?

The last two times we posted our highs at the end of the year were 2020 and 2010..

Of course it’s anything is possible. Look at the Jan and Feb tops the last two years for reference

However historically we have never topped in September or October

And an end of the year high has led to higher prices in the following year the last two occurrences

Have soybeans ever topped in September? 🌱

This chart shows Nov soybeans highest price for every month since 2005

We’ve printed our highest price for the year in September just once. Back in 2012

We’ve never posted our highest price in October

November has seen the highs the most of any month outside of May through July. It’s actually tied with June for the leading month

Every year we’ve posted our highs in November, we have seen higher prices the following year

2025 was $11.39 -> 2026 is $13.20

2020 was $11.50 -> 2021 was $14.80

2010 was $13.38 -> 2011 was $14.65

2007 was $10.68 -> 2008 was $16.37

2006 was $6.70 -> 2007 was $10.68

Monthly corn breaking out 🌽 👀

Corn tends to be trapped in a $1.00 range

Right now we are breaking out of that $4 to $5 range we’ve been trapped in since 2023

I outlined several major spikes throughout the years

Something to note is that most of the spikes that fade and do not last occur during the spring/summer. That usual seasonal high time frame

We rarely top in August. The last time front month corn topped in August was 2012. However we were already in a bull market then

The last two times we broke out of the $1.00 range happened towards the end of the year and continued higher into the next year

Which happened in September 2010 and December 2020

So could definitely argue there are some similarities here

(Note: This chart just switched to Dec corn from Sep)

KC wheat rejecting that target we had been talking about

On Friday we sent out a sell & hedge alert

Link to alert: txt.so/fBG5cV

Why here?

This target was the implied move from the cup and handle pattern we broke out of

It was also the golden fib (161.8%) of the June lows up to the May highs

We were also showing bearish divergence on the RSI. Prices made new highs while the RSI did not

New highs in KC wheat 🌾

Blasting off the volume shelf and breaking out above the July highs

We are still sitting in this cup and handle pattern we’ve been discussing

The implied move of this pattern takes you into that $8.50 or so range

The golden fib from the June lows up to the May highs also sits in that area

Highest corn since July 2023 🌽

Starting to look promising

We posted our first series of higher lows and higher highs of the entire bear market

Front month corn broke above $5.00

This was a pretty significant level

As we took out the highs from 2025, which were also the lows from 2021

Could very well open the potential to further upside

2026 vs 2020 vs 2010 🌽 🤔

Potential for a repeat?

We’ve only posted our highs in August or later a handful of times

The last 4 years were:

2020
2012
2011
2010

Both 2011 and 2012 topped in August, but were already in a bull market

Both 2010 and 2020 ran higher the rest of the year and led to a bull market

I also included Dec-27 vs Dec-21 vs Dec-11 to give a better visual on the continuation of post 2020 and 2010

If corn takes out the 2025 highs things get interesting

Today front month corn hit $5.00 for the first time since Feb 2025. Knocking on those 2025 highs

We have not had a weekly close above $5.00 since July 2023

If we break above those highs, it would be the first higher high of the entire bear market

Doing so could very well offer some long term upside potential

Not only is that the highs from 2025 but it’s also the lows from 2021

Does corn ever top in August? 🌽 🤔

Below is new crop corns highs for every single month since 2005

We haven’t posted our highest price of the year in August since 2011 and 2012

We have never once posted our highs in September or October

The last two times we posted our highs towards the end of the year in November were 2010 and 2020

Interestingly enough, a bull market and much higher prices followed suite the last two times we posted our highs in November

Below is a chart that compares the years we’ve posted our highs in August or later

(2026, 2020, 2012, 2011, and 2010)

You could argue this action looks more like 2010 or 2020 than 2011 or 2012. Given that in 2011-2012 we were coming off the start of a bull market from 2010.
