CBOT corn may bounce to $3.75-1/4

SINGAPORE: CBOT May corn may bounce to $3.75-1/4, as it may find a support at $3.72-1/4 per bushel.

The support is provided by the 100 percent projection level of a downward wave C, the third wave of a three-wave cycle from $3.97-3/4.

The bullish divergence on the hourly RSI suggests a bounce is due, which may be triggered by the support at $3.72-1/4. This bounce could be regarded as a pullback towards the Jan. 27 low of $3.75.

A break below $3.72-1/4 could confirm the continuation of the wave C towards $3.68-3/4. In the continuous daily chart of the first month contract, a rising wedge has been confirmed as a bearish pattern. The contract is riding on a wave C which is capable of traveling to $3.27-1/4.
