SINGAPORE: CBOT September corn is expected to fall towards $4.04-3/4, as it has broken a support at $4.17-3/4 per bushel.

The support is identified as the 76.4% projection level of a presumed wave C from $4.60. This wave may extend to the next support at $4.04-3/4.

A retracement analysis on the uptrend from $3.52-1/2 to $4.68-1/2 reveals an immediate support at $4.10-1/2, the 50% level. Given that all the former retracements worked as supports, this 50% level should not be ignored.

Strategically, the target at $4.04-3/4 will be available only when corn breaks $4.10-1/2. A break above $4.17-3/4, now a resistance, may lead to a gain to $4.25-3/4.
