Cattle futures give up ground in seasonal trading
Live and feeder cattle futures gave up ground to begin the week, as is the seasonal tendency during the first week of December. January feeder cattle posted an “outside-day-down,” a bearish reversal pattern.

Although volume returned Monday after dipping through the holiday-shortened week, activity was still in line with the average from the week prior to last, making the pattern less compelling. Remember, feeders reached overbought territory after posting 10 consecutive days of gains coming into the week and were due for a pullback.
