For Ags
Benson Quinn Commodities have a bunch of free newsletters that have a lot of good fundamental info.


For Livestock
Daily Livestock Report by Steiner Consulting Group also has a lot of good fundamental info but costs $69/year. (One month free trial)


For Oil
It's been so long since I saw Oilprice.com I honestly have no idea.

Thank you.

May I ask how you trade WTI and natty gas?

I'm currently reading "Trade Stocks and Commodities with the Insiders" by Larry Williams. IS it possible to use the COT report for a weekly bias, in your experience?

Mostly spreads and butterflys (futures not options).

I believe the consensus answer to that is yes although the consensus is also that you need to be very careful on your data dates to avoid look ahead bias/data leakage.

I personally have never analyzed the COT data in detail. In the energy space there have always been too many ways for the truly big players to mask their positions ~ although has been reduced significantly in recent years. Also there was an incident about a decade ago, where the CFTC changed the classification of one company from hedger to speculator and that one change increased speculator positions by 25%!
