SINGAPORE: CBOT July corn may test a resistance at $4.43 per bushel, with a good chance of breaking above this level and rising more towards the next resistance at $4.56.
These resistances are identified as the 100% and the 123.6% projection levels of an upward wave (3) from $3.87. This wave is expected to travel to its 161.8% level at $4.77-1/2 soon.
The gap forming between Tuesday and Wednesday is defined as a runaway gap which signals an acceleration of the rally. Support is at $4.29-3/4, a break below which could cause a loss limited to $4.21-1/2.
On the first month continuous chart, corn has cleared a resistance at $4.29, the 23.6% retracement of a long-term downtrend from $8.43-3/4 to $3.01. It is expected to eventually surge to $5.08-1/4.
However, this target could be too far away. A projection analysis reveals a realistic target zone of $4.45-3/4 to $4.61-3/4, formed by the 100% and the 114.6% projection levels of an upward wave (C).
