Long-Term Commodity Trading
by George Angell

Successful trading is often a matter of temperament. Some enjoy the day-to-day thrills of in-and-out trading, the challenges of capturing the market turns. Others are more long-term oriented and are prepared to wait many weeks, and even months, to take profits.

While there are many ways to beat the market, long-term, position trading is probably the one that has earned the most money over time. Essentially, the strategy is simple; you look for a trend and then ride it. Unfortunately, due to the inherent high volatility in the futures market, this is a considerable challenge indeed. All rising bull markets, no matter how strong, will react from time to time; all bear markets experience temporary rallies. Why give up ground you've already won? It seems a lot easier to accomplish than in reality it actually is. Really, it comes down to temperament. Can you commit to the trade and stay the course?

Finding the Trend

Since there is a totally different orientation involved in long-term trading than short-term strategies, you had best acquaint yourself with them at the outset. First of all, your broker is going to hate you for being a long-term trader. Why? No commissions. If you buy in February and don't sell until September, there isn't a lot of money in round-turn commissions for the broker. That, of course, is his problem, not yours. But be prepared for the pitch about how you can get out here with your profits and buy it back low on a break, and so on. What if you get our early - and there is not pullback? Then you have just botched the strategy and missed a good trade.

The key to a good position trade is finding the trend. Either up or down. You don't care which direction as long as the move is sustained. Now, what about time-frame? Actually, a position trade can be a three- or four-day rally or can extend over a period of months, perhaps a year. The point is, you want to find a trend and ride it. You won't be able to buy the bottom and sell the top - that's impossible - but you should be able to take a nice chunk out of the middle. That's your goal.

Trends can often be elusive because they are hard to spot in their beginning stages. After one is over, of course, it is a piece of cake. Also, trends ten to overextend themselves. That means don't try to play expert and pick a top or bottom. Let the market tell you, by its price action, what it really wants to do. Top - and bottom-picking can be very, very expensive.

To begin, you have the obvious trends that are often weather-driven. We all know that freezes tend to occur in winter and droughts in the summer. The nice thing about futures trading is that you can make a relatively modest investment and find whether you have a trend or not. If you are correct, the position will be profitable soon enough and you'll be on the way. If not, cut your losses in the early going and there will be minimal damage. This is the old adage: cut your losses and let your profits ride. Fortunately, even in a non-trending year, there will be trends albeit of a lesser magnitude. You won't have big markets every year, but it your ever catch one and leave the position alone - that is, let your profits ride - you will never forget it. For these are the years which make genuine commodity fortunes in millions of dollars.

Even a cursory glance at the futures tables in The Wall Street Journal will yield a clue as to the duration of the trends. The price tables indicate a column known as "Lifetime high and low". This is not your "lifetime", but rather the lifetime of the individual contract which is typically about 18 months, and occasionally a little longer. These are the extreme prices, both high and low. Remember, you will not be able to capture the entire move. But what if you could gain just 50 or 60 percent? With the typical contract being able to be margined with just $2,500, the profits to be had are considerable. Remember, $2,500 is a representative margin requirement for a single contract. High-flying contracts, such as the S&P 500, will naturally have higher margin requirements to compensate for the higher volatility.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. Also, the hypothetical results do not include the costs of subscriptions, commissions, or other fees.
