CBOT wheat may fall further into $5.16-$5.20 range

Published Updated

SINGAPORE: CBOT March wheat may fall further into a range of $5.16-$5.20 per bushel, as suggested by a projection analysis and a rising channel.

A three-wave cycle from $5.03-1/4 has completed around $5.38, the 10 percent projection level of the third wave laveled C.

Most of this cycle developed within a rising channel, which indicates a target zone of $5.16-$5.20. Wave theory suggests a lower target at $5.10, the bottom of the wave B.

Resistance is at $5.26, a break above which may lead to a gain to $5.30. On the daily chart, a retracement analysis on the downtrend from $6.27-1/2 to $5.03-1/4 reveals a support at $5.21, the 14.6 percent level.

This support looks vulnerable after the big black candle formed on Wednesday. Most likely, wheat would overcome this barrier and falls towards $5.12.
