Ngl guys, watching Arabica coffee smash past ATHs today gave me absolute whiplash. If you traded this headline about the US and Colombia tariff spat, you already know how fast these ags can move when geopolitics get messy. I remember getting chopped up in soft commodities back during the 2021 frost scares, and honestly, the biggest lesson I learned the hard way is to never short a panic. Traders were rushing to cover shorts the second Trump backed off the sanctions threat, and the liquidity vacuum just sent the chart straight up.
If you are looking to scalp or swing this move, please manage your risk tightly because volatility is through the roof right now. Margin requirements on softs can quietly eat your whole account if you size too big, so keep those stops wide enough to breathe but tight enough to sleep at night. Don't chase the FOMO candle here, wait for a proper retest of the breakout zone before doing anything rash.
Anyone else playing this coffee squeeze or are you sitting this one out?
