SINGAPORE: CBOT wheat may retest a support at $7.14-1/2 per bushel, as its correction from $7.69-1/2 looks incomplete.

The correction consists of three waves. The third wave labelled c is still unfolding, as it is too short compared to the wave a.

A break above $7.35-1/2 could lead to a gain into $7.48-1/2 to $7.59-1/4. On the daily chart, the long-shadowed shooting star on Tuesday has been confirmed as a reversal pattern by the following black candlestick on Wednesday.

This reversal was due to the completion of the uptrend from $6.25-3/4, as revealed by the wave pattern on the hourly chart. It does not signal the completion of the whole trend from $5.92-1/4, which remains intact.
