SINGAPORE: CBOT March wheat has found a support at $5.12-1/2 per bushel, and may temporarily hover above this level or bounce into a range of $5.16-1/4 to $5.19-3/4.
The support is provided by the 61.8 percent retracement of the uptrend from $5.01-1/4 to $5.31-1/4. Working together with this support is another one established by a rising trendline.
The deep fall on Thursday confirmed a reversal of the uptrend. Chances are, the Jan. 2 low of $5.01-1/4 may be revisited over the next few days. However, it is not very clear how long wheat would stay above the support at $5.12-1/2.
A break below $5.12-1/2 could confirm the extension of the downtrend towards $5.08-1/4.
