Schad Commodity Monthly Report: An Insider’s View of the Next Big Market Move · August 29th, 2025

Once each week, usually on Friday evenings, we’ll update our personal weekly commodity trading charts and review them for changes in “net long” or, “net short” holdings between the big commercial commodity traders, large speculators, and the usually uninformed public. This is our professional analysis of “the bigger picture” and current dynamics for each market which provide a spyglass view of the BIG commercial traders and what they are currently doing to influence the crypto and futures markets.

As you may already know, insider trading with stocks on Wall Street is very illegal. However, in the commodity & crypto trading industry, large/commercial traders MUST report their positions EACH WEEK to the CFTC regulatory body, hence, we monitor them on a weekly basis. Although the crypto & futures markets themselves will ultimately provide the most accurate illustration of trend, these (weekly) charts we’ve identified, serve to forewarn us of the next possible bigger move.

Here are the commodity & crypto markets which illustrate their forthcoming changing picture…the ones to be watching more closely to consider taking a position in next week:

UP Trending Futures Markets: e-Mini S&P 500 Index*, Ethereum, Feeder Cattle, e-Mini NASDAQ 100 Index, Silver*, and Euro-FX

DOWN Trending Futures Markets: Hard-Red Winter Wheat*, and Soymeal*

*expect extension of current trend

ALL COMMENTARY IS CONSIDERED OPINION & VIEWS FROM THE AUTHOR AND NOT A SOLICITATION OF ANY SECURITIES. THE RISK OF LOSS IN TRADING COMMODITY INTERESTS CAN BE SUBSTANTIAL. YOU SHOULD THEREFORE CONSIDER WHETHER SUCH TRADING IS SUITABLE FOR YOU IN LIGHT OF YOUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.
