The Encyclopedia of Commodity and Financial Spreads

Despite the widespread acceptance of spread trading, the availability of information needed to profitably utilize this concept has been limited—until now.

The Encyclopedia of Commodity and Financial Spreads is a well-researched, detailed examination of some of the more recently successful spreads in the futures market. Created by a team of experienced experts associated with Moore Research Center, Inc., a respected spread trading research firm, this valuable resource can potentially help you make more informed and profitable trading decisions.

The Encyclopedia of Commodity and Financial Spreads delves into eight futures market complexes—energy, grains, soybeans, meats, metals, softs, forex, and interest rates. Each section briefly discusses underlying dynamics that can give rise to spread trading opportunities in the complex. How those markets have tended to respond is illustrated by their seasonal patterns and quantified by 282 spread trading strategies proven reliable between specific dates over the last twenty years. Each strategy is replete with its own supporting detail of historical fact. Accompanying commentary is meant to help the reader analyze, interpret, and understand the trading ideas in order to better anticipate their potential recurrence in the future.
