a pinball, bouncing back and forth between is or is it not hallucinations-------will it or will it not become reality, the retest of the upper end of the trading range. I to, am also concerned about the big premium the index has over the board. Then there's my distaste for the herd mentality and overloaded trains. My thought process has probably turned into a defensive fear phobia rather than a pure hallucination. There is also the timing factor for the swing cycles that has been a consistent force the whole year, which has rallies, selloffs, and even sideways trades running with 30 day intervals. That can give us a change up whenever the market decides to give it.

Until I see that 30 day pattern give me a change up, I have to believe the market will keep doing what's been working. There's 2 weeks left to this current cycle before it has to decide on a direction. So a 4-5 dollar trip back to test critical resistance between 45.00-46.00 is very possible. The number of fishing lines I have working between 42.05 to 42.75 tells the story for my bias about a $3 surprise pop.

I also have several producers telling me they are starting on a 2-3 week hole in their marketings and then followed by more hogs than they had the first 2 weeks in Oct. That's just a few operations in the Big Picture but maybe most operations are seeing the same thing and just maybe the packers have good reason to make their hogs heavier for awhile. Just a thought that I have to respect somewhat but also knowing that my hallucinations are working OVERTIME, may keep my mind bouncing around like a pinball until reality shows up with the juries verdict.
