CBOT wheat neutral in $5.01-1/4 to $5.08 range

Published Updated

The range is formed by the 38.2 percent and the 61.8 percent projection levels of an uptrend from $4.90. The trend is a part of a wedge from $4.85-1/2, which could have completed, as suggested by its five-wave structure and the deep fall from the Nov. 13 high of $5.20-3/4.

The wedge has been more or less confirmed as a bearish pattern, suggesting a target around $4.90, which will strategically be valid when wheat breaks $5.01-1/4. A break above $5.08 could lead to a gain into the range of $5.12-1/2 to $5.19-1/2.
