SINGAPORE: The CBOT soybean March contract looks neutral in a range of $9.02-1/4 to $9.17 per bushel, and an escape could suggest a direction.
The range is formed by the 38.2 percent and the 23.6 percent retracements of the uptrend from $8.39-3/4 to $9.41. A break above $9.17 could lead to a gain into the zone of $9.26-$9.41.
However, two trendlines are converging towards a point. The lower line suggests a fall towards $8.90-1/4, which will be confirmed as a target when the contract breaks $9.02-1/4.
Signals on the daily chart are also mixed. A projection analysis on the target of an upward wave C reveals a similar neutral range of $8.98-3/4 to $9.22-1/4, formed by the 61.8 percent and the 86.4 percent levels. Chances are the contract may consolidate further in the range for one or two days.
