With the US Dollar seeming to roll-over past it’s 20-day, Commodity prices might continue their up-trend. Once setup i’m seeing here is in copper but wondering if this is an actual legit “1-2-3″ chart setup. ($HG_F)
While developed western countries, especially the US, are struggling to fix there economic and financial issues, their Asian counterparts, China to be specific, are in a race of buying and locking up the rest of global natural reserves. Majority of investments are going into Africa, and at the moment, Crude Oil seems to be the most sought after resource.

| LONDON, March 1 (Reuters) – Asian buyers are taking record volumes of West African crude oil this year as fuel consumption rises in India, China and other East Asian countries, a Reuters survey of trade sources showed on Monday.

Cotton seems to be one of the hottest commodities at the moment with a YTD performance of +9.4% at 83.06, despite the strong U.S. Dollar, and the weak U.S. and European Markets. I’ll be keeping this in my watchlist; allowing it to pull-back before going in. Notice the pull backs after the oversold RSI signals. $CT_F
