CBOT wheat neutral in $5.16-3/4 to $5.22-1/4 range

Published Updated

SINGAPORE: CBOT March wheat looks neutral in a range of $5.16-3/4 to $5.22-1/4 per bushel, and an escape could suggest a direction.

The range is formed by the 38.2 percent and the 61.8 percent projection levels of an upward wave C from $5.08. Wheat may consolidate further in this range, following its second failure to break $5.16-3/4.

A break above $5.22-1/4 could lead to a gain to $5.25-3/4, while a break below $5.16-3/4 will not only cause a loss to $5.13-1/4, but also confirm a head-and-shoulders, which suggests a more bearish target around $5.08.

Signals are also mixed on the daily chart, as wheat is stuck in a slightly wider range of $5.14-1/2 to $5.23, formed by the 38.2 percent and the 61.8 percent projection levels of an upward wave (C) from $5.01-1/4. One more daily candlestick could make the signals clearer.
