CBOT wheat to retrace to $7.71 a bushel

SINGAPORE : The CBOT December wheat contract will retrace to $7.71 per bushel as it failed a resistance zone of $8.07-1/
Published Updated

The zone was formed by the 61.8 percent Fibonacci retracement on the fall from $9.23-1/4 to $6.39 and a 100 percent Fibonacci projection level of the wave "c" target based on the length of the wave "a".

The failure of the contract to break above this zone signals a possible completion of the rebound that started at the July 1 low of $6.39.

Only a rise above $8.14-1/2 could open the way towards $8.56, the 76.4 percent retracement on the fall from $9.23-1/4 to $6.39.
