Spread trading is the simultaneous purchase of one commodity futures contract and the sale of a different contract, and successful spread trading depends on careful analysis of prices and price movement. Today it's used by large commercial firms, to move their hedges from one contract month to another, to recover the costs of storing and financing their inventories, and to determine where to deliver a particular commodity. Large speculators are also heavy users of spreads. In fact, it's not uncommon for large companies and speculators to have a third or more of their positions in spreads. Yet, until now, there's been no reliable guide for traders who use spreads. This much-needed handbook is the first guide to analyzing spreads and spread price action, and discovering and executing profitable spread trades. It brings together, in one easy-to-use source, a wide range of both technical and fundamental methods for analyzing prices, as well as useful historical data on commodity price trends. Courtney Smith, an experienced user and long-time student of spread trading methods, explains every aspect of the commodity spread, from entering orders to sophisticated analysis. Traders will find guidance on applying historical comparison analysis, seasonal analysis, regression and correlation, and chart analysis...using intercommodity and intermarket spreads...and developing and using a spread trading plan. Many of these techniques and data have never before been published. All of it is grounded in the best current trading practice. As the first book-length treatment of spread trading methods, Commodity Spreads is an absolutely essential planning and trading guide for all commodity brokers, traders, and investors.

Courtney Smith shares her testimony as a young woman growing up in a Christian household to an eventual spiral into drug abuse in Rescued: From Drugs to Jesus. Her story is written candidly, as she openly shares her yearning to be loved and accepted. As she grows into her high school years, she begins to recognize a void needing to be filled; as a result, she turns to drugs and grows further away from God. Her downward spiral becomes a source of introspection and purifying spiritual journey, which allows her to reconnect with God and grow from her past.Smith examines the nature of addiction from her personal experience and the testimonies of others to share with you the factors which can contribute to feelings of loneliness and depression; she shares how prayer and determination to live a Christ-centered life has had a tremendous healing impact on her, and how God can redeem you of your sins. This is a transformative, emotionally-powerful read, informing you on choices, pain, addictions and the nature of love. Smith's story will connect to those who have fought addiction, or those looking to understand the nature of love in a clear scope. She reminds us we are all part of God's Kingdom and can change our lives and re-commit to Christ.
