A Mixed Morning For Grain Futures

Corn and beans slide lower while wheat futures find their footing against significant support.

Corn

Technicals (July)

July corn futures traded and closed below our pivot pocket yesterday which put a little more pressure on prices, retreating back to first support from 441 3/4-444 1/2. The Bulls need to see a close back above 448-451 to prevent a further technical breakdown. Soybeans getting taken to the woodshed yesterday certainly didn’t do any favors.

Bias: Neutral/Bullish

Resistance: 456 1/2-460****, 471-471 1/2***

Pivot: 448-451

Support: 441 3/4-444 1/2***, 433 1/4-436****, 422 1/4-424 1/4***

Soybeans

Technicals (July)
July soybean futures broke below the short term trendline support which led to an acceleration of selling pressure, opening the door for a retest of our next support pocket which we’ve outlined as 1150-1155. If that support pocket gives way it seems like a high likely hood that we could see the market gravitate down near lows of the year down at 1140 1/2 and possibly take a peak below that.

Bias: Neutral/Bearish

Resistance: 1182 1/4-1186 1/4, 1199 1/2-1204

Pivot: 1169 1/4-1173 1/2

Support: 1150-1155, 1140 1/4-1145 3/4**
