CHARTS
Dec Corn 🌽
We are holding up well under $4.00, meaning we haven’t completely fallen apart yet which still gives us the chance that this could be a bear trap.
If we do not reverse and close above $4.00 tomorrow, it becomes likely we go down and test $3.80 which is our implied downside target I have been mentioning for weeks.
We will likely know tomorrow if this is a bear trap or we are going lower.
Either way, to say the bottom is completely in I still need a close above $4.26 preferably. Until we do so, the risk is lower.
Nov Beans 🌱
Very hard to say where the bottom is. Will be determined by China likely.
However, until we get confirmation that the bottom is in on the charts, the downside risk & path of least resistance remains lower.
$10.00 will be a good psychological support level.
We could bounce anywhere, but I wouldn’t completely rule out seeing $9.60, as that is our resistance level from the Trade War. (Look at 2nd chart).
Weekly Continuous Beans 🌱
Here is why we can’t rule out $9.60. That purple line is the trade war resistance. Of course we could be bounce before. But that is our downside risk.
Sep Chicago Wheat 🌾
We remain stuck in a 30 cent range, continuing to hold that $5.24 support nicely.
If we can claw above $5.56 the chart would look bullish.
But I’d like to see $5.67 to call a bottom here.
Sep KC Wheat 🌾
Same story as Chicago. Holding the recent range.
A close above $5.76 would look great and make me feel like we are going higher. $6.00 is the key level.
Continuous Live Cattle 🐮
Look at this channel.
We have bounced here several times.
We could do it again.. but if we do not and get a break below into perhaps 182.500 then I would look at this chart as no longer in an uptrend. Meaning I would advise a sell signal for some.
Sep Feeder Cattle 🐮
This chart looks like it could see more downside, as we break below that pendant.
A reason you might want to have puts for protection.
