It is growing on the chart when the global wheat prices advance and ruble weakens against the US dollar. Will Wheat\/RUB continue advancing?<\/p>\n<p>USDA reported that US farmers cut sowings of winter wheat to 32.4mln acres this year. This is 10% lower than in previous year. The acreage of winter wheat sowings has reached the low since 1909. Amid this its prices reached the 4-1\/2 month high. Global leader in wheat import, Egypt, lowered requirements for imported grains. Market participants believe this may be have been caused by higher wheat purchases by Egypt in global markets. Investors worry that cold weather may harm winter wheat sowings in EU countries. In Eastern Europe temperature came down to -30 \u00b0\u0421. In France the December was the most dry since 1959. As a result, snow accumulation was low which may also harm crops of winter wheat. In its turn, ruble strengthened 18% to the US dollar in 2016. Its rate reached the low since July 2015 of 59 rubles per dollar. Theoretically, the reverse trend may follow, i.e. ruble may weaken due to lower global oil prices and anticipated rate cut of Russian Central Bank. Currently the rate is being 10% which contradicts low inflation of just 5.4% in 2016.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: none;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ifcmarkets.com\/uploads\/images\/13-01-2017.png\" alt=\"Wheat\/RUB\" width=\"660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"emailSummary\">On the daily chart <b>Wheat\/RUB: D1<\/b> is correcting up from its low since May 2015.

Having opened the pending order we shall move the stop to the next fractal low following the Parabolic and Bollinger signals. Thus, we are changing the probable profit\/loss ratio to the breakeven point. The most risk-averse traders may switch to the 4-hour chart after the trade and place there a stop-loss moving it in the direction of the trade. If the price meets the stop-loss level at 1.05 without reaching the order at 1.13, we recommend cancelling the position: the market sustains internal changes which were not taken into account.<\/p><div id=\"inves-3579350557\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"emailSummary\" style=\"margin-top: 15px !important;\">Summary of technical analysis<\/h2>\n<table style=\"border: solid 1px black;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Position<\/b><\/td>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">Buy<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Buy stop<\/b><\/td>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">above 1.13<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Stop loss<\/b><\/td>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">below 1.05<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Market Analysis provided by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ifcmarkets.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">IFCMarkets<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By IFCMarkets Sowings of winter wheat fell to lowest in 103 years In this report we consider studying the personal composite instrument (PCI) \u201dwheat against ruble\u201d.
