Hi Hawk, remember just because something is at new lows does not mean that it's not able to go lower!!! I'm sure there are futures options on coffee, but that is a pretty exotic and speculative thing to be contemplating. When I look at the CRB index and several of the components of it, we could continue to work lower into next year. Cotton is another example of a market that has been in a breathtaking bear market this past year and the past several years. Cotton has not been able to close above it's 50 dma for over 9 months and it illustrates why some trend traders favor commodities, instead of stocks and bonds... commodities and a number of the currencies trend very well.. host.wallstreetcity.com; check out this bearish looking monthly chart on cotton futures.tradingcharts.com JOhn
