Grain Markets Continue to Slide Lower

Posted: July 28, 2023, 7:20 a.m.

Corn

Technicals (December)

December corn futures closed lower in yesterday's session settling right tin the middle of our 3-star support pocket, 540 1/2-545.  The lower close marked the third consecutive days of losses, the longest losing streak since the dramatic selloff in June.  The weakness has carried over into the overnight and early morning trade with that previously mentioned support pocket giving way.  If the Bulls fail to reclaim this pocket through today's session, it could keep the door open for a pullback into the mid to low 520's, which was the breakout point for the recent run which occurred on July 18th.

Soybeans 

Technicals (November)

1427-1435 has continued to be a BRICK WALL for the market.  That rejection has helped bring prices back to (and below) our pivot pocket, 1390-1400.  Today's close will be an important one.  A failure to defend our pivot pocket could lead to long liquidation, which would not the good.  Soybeans are the only grain market that the funds have been decisively optimistic on for the last month.  The next support pocket we see comes in from 1368-1378.

Bias: Neutral/Bearish

Wheat

Technicals (September)

Wheat futures have taken out the recent lows which has taken prices into negative territory for the week, trading into our 3-star support pocket 693 1/2-698 3/4.  If the Bulls fail to defend this pocket, the next support level comes in closer to 680.  The past few weeks have been a great example of the old saying "Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered".
