Here's a quick look at how global commodities closed the 2024 summer season
Using monthly technical chart preview screens from the Socrates Platform GridView, we've provided a broad visual of how some of the major commodities have performed on a monthly basis, along with computer-generated trend lines and our proprietary Energy Model oscillator for easy reference. The charts show as of the August, 2024 close.
From this view, you can see that Metals have pushed north since 2020, while Agriculture and Energy markets have struggled to keep maintain or retest their peak levels during the same period of time.
But, pay close attention to the trend lines and the Energy Model when studying these markets. When the Energy Model spikes well above its moving average, it is at a higher risk of losing momentum, which could mean a change in direction may be ahead. Remember, a change in direction can just be a short-term move or brief market correction, it does not necessarily mean it is a true change in longer term trend. This is why studying market behavior consistently is necessary.

Log in to research these and other global financial markets. Go beyond the charts using the Global Market Watch patterns (monthly, quarterly and yearly in particular) and the Indicating Ranges on a monthly closing basis. See how - or if - price movement aligns with what different technical indicators and computer models are picking up on across various time levels (weekly, monthly, etc). This can help shed light on what might be ahead on both a short and long term basis.
