Wheat ran from $5.00 to $6.38 in two months (+27.6%). Pulled back to $5.87 (-8%). The 12H SHORT series extended past its average — the averaging strategy is adding long.
---
Score breakdown (20.0 total):
Deviation: 9.3 — Commodity price compressing toward moving averages after a trend run.
Series × 0.5: -1.5 — mixed signal, slight drag. Not the strength of the setup.
ALMA Overheat (Cur>Avg): 7.2
- 1D: 4.1 → 1D ALMA SHORT series at 1.70× average
- 3D: 3.1 → 3D ALMA SHORT series at 1.17× average
Two timeframes contributing simultaneously. The 1D is the primary trigger.
No VWAP component. No SMC component. Pure deviation + ALMA overheat play.

ALMA Averaging Strategy (12H, OANDA):
Cur S=5, Avg S=3.5 → 1.43× overheat on the 12H SHORT series. Long Add active.
Recent closed LONG cycles from this strategy on WHEAT:
- +9.71%
- +11.26%
- +6.025%
- +4.063%
- +2.565%
Five consecutive profitable closes during the Feb–Mar uptrend. The current short series is the pullback inside that trend.
---
EMA picture (MTF):
- 1H: Below EMA — Cur S=8, Avg S=5.7 → 1.40× overheat
- 4H: Below EMA — recovering
- 1D/3D/1W: Dev% positive — above on the bigger picture (uptrend intact)
- 15m: Above EMA
Wheat's macro trend is bullish (1D/1W above EMA). The current 1H/4H weakness is the pullback entry window.
FVG / SMC (1D):
- FVG Bull cluster: $5.839, $5.903, $5.840, $5.911 — multiple bull zones stacked $5.84–$5.91 (March 15–22). Current price is sitting IN this support zone.
- FVG Raid Bull: $5.992 (17.03), $6.071 (12.03) — prior resistance, now tested
- FVG Bear overhead: $6.251–$6.340 (primary target zone)
- FVG Bear upper: $6.449–$6.504 (extended target)
- Deep FVG Bull: $5.40–$5.45 (floor below floor)
- Score chart: Short Score peaked at ~100 around March 9–10 (price high $6.38), now unwinding. Long Score recovering to 20.0.

Strategy mechanics (Long Only, 12H):
Entry condition: each 12H bar where ALMA signal = SHORT and (Cur S − Avg S) ≥ 1. Currently: Cur S=5, Avg S=3.5 → diff=1.5 — condition met, adds firing.
Position sizing: 25% of equity per bar. Max 4 adds (pyramiding=4) → up to 100% deployed.
Current adds: strategy has already opened positions during the current SHORT series at ~$5.80–$5.87. Each new 12H bar with signal=SHORT and diff≥1 adds another 25%.
Exit condition: ALMA signal = LONG and the LONG series has become overheated: (Cur L − Avg L) ≥ 1.
Hard stop: 10% from average entry price (strategy default). If avg entry ~$5.85 → hard SL triggers at ~$5.27.
12H ATR = 1.2%. 1D ATR = 2.95%. This is a commodity CFD — volatility is a fraction of crypto. Position sizing changes accordingly.
One note on context: WHEAT is a macro asset. Tariffs, Iran dynamics, USD strength — all of these move wheat independently of any technical setup. The ALMA averaging works here because wheat is structurally mean-reverting over long periods. The 23-year backtest confirms the pattern exists. It also confirms the edge is thin. Trade the extreme, not the average.
