CBOT wheat may rise to $5.24

Published Updated

The resistance is identified as the 38.2 percent retracement of the uptrend from $5.01-1/4 to $5.31-1/4. The next resistance will be at $5.24.

A double-bottom developed around $5.12-1/2. Once confirmed, it will suggest a target around $5.29. Both of this target and the target at $5.24 will be aborted, should wheat fall below a rising trendline which provides a support around $5.18.

On the daily chart, the contract seems to have managed to stay within a rising channel. However, it is doubtful if the contact could climb to $5.30, a level pointed by the channel line, as the candlestick pattern from Feb. 7 looks like a falling three method.

The pattern will be confirmed when wheat falls below the Feb. 12 low of $5.14-1/2.
