[] Trend Trail®


  • One of the core pricing models.
  • Trend Trail® prices grain on "lower closes" as long as the close is above the pricing "floor". 
  • It prices after a market rally preventing emotions from causing you to "freeze".

  • Trend Trail® is a proven favorite with customers.

[] Trend Tack®

[] Pro Prospector(sm)


  • Take advantage of price rallies by pricing a portion of your grain during significant price rallies.
  • Whenever the calculated market index exceeds your predetermined trigger level, this model prices grain and allows you to implement an aggressive pricing approach.
