Monday, Sept. 27. Today's high was 195.55.

Attachment 4046270The yellow vertical lines enclose the past twenty days of trading.

The left yellow line will soon approach a row of candles with a series of descending daily highs.
This news, combined with the rising prices of the past few trading days, may give us a long entry point;
namely, a new four-week high.

Monday's chart:

Tues. Sept. 28.

Wed. Sept. 29.

Today's high was 199.45, which was close to being a new 20-day high, but it
did not surpass the high of 199.75 on 2 Sept. 2021. (Both prices are tagged.)

And, for reference, here is the current page for coffee futures from the CME:

Thursday Sept. 30.

Friday, October 1, 2021.

Finally!
Today marked a new 4-week high of 205.55, which was a full 9.10 higher
than yesterday's daily high. This would mark a long entry on Monday
morning, according to the Turtle Trading rules.

Have a good weekend!

Monday, October 4th.

Since we got our new 4-week high last Friday,
today we would enter a long trade (our third since March 2021).

Tuesday, Oct. 5.

Stopped out already?

After the burst of energy on Friday, the coffee futures chart has backslid.

Now, if I were a professional trend-following Turtle Trader, I would keep track of the value of N,
which I discussed elsewhere in this thread. Once you know "N", you compute the value of 2N
as your stop loss. Perhaps I'll edit this post later to show the results of my N calculations for the
previous 20 trading days, but for now, I'll just presume that I was stopped out.

Getting close to having another fresh 20-day high price...
That would mark a new long entry point.

Tuesday Oct. 12 - a new 4-week high.
