After closing the previous trading day at $16.34, CME Rough Rice is up to $16.48 per cwt, which makes for a move of 0.8%/13 cents today.
Trend-focused traders would be interested to note that the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator is below -100, meaning the market price is unusually low and below its rolling moving average. Technical analysis indicates that a new, strong downtrend could be forthcoming with short positions favored.
