SINGAPORE: CBOT soybean January contract may test a support at $8.69-1/4 per bushel, a break below which could cause a loss to $8.60-3/4.
The support is provided by the 76.4 percent projection level of a presumed wave (c) from $8.97-1/2. This wave seems to be travelling towards $8.52, a support established by the lower trendline of a rising wedge.
It will be strategically safe to target $8.60-3/4 first, as the pattern from the Nov. 2 high of $9.00-3/4 looks like a flat, which is characterized by three component waves that are roughly equal in length.
A further bounce from the current level may be limited to $8.79.
