SINGAPORE: CBOT September corn is poised to break a resistance at $4.06-1/4 per bushel and rise towards the next resistance at $4.18-1/4.
These resistances are identified as the 23.6% and the 38.2% retracements of the downtrend from $4.68-3/4 to $3.87-1/4. Given that the current bounce has been observing this set of retracements closely, it is likely to extend to $4.18-1/4.
The contract failed twice to break $4.06-1/4. After the consolidation over the past two days, it may have accumulated enough bullish momentum to overcome this barrier and rise more.
A rise to $4.09 may confirm a break above $4.06-1/4 and the target at $4.18-1/4. Only a break below $3.99 could signal the continuation of a downward wave C towards $3.83-1/2.
