Corn

Technicals (July)
July corn futures continued to peel back in yesterday’s trade, but all in all we saw yesterday’s trade as a healthy correction following a failure against resistance. As you can see from the chart below, we are still defending previous resistance as well as trendline support. If the Bulls can defend the levels it would make another round of higher lows, which could potentially take us to mark higher highs. If 456-460 were to give way on a closing basis that would neutralize our bias.

As mentioned yesterday (and previous reports), we believe we are an environment where shorter term opportunities on both sides of the market will be plentiful for active traders. If you’re a producer, that is probably going to be a different colored lens as you may be more proactive in playing defense.

Bias: Bullish/Neutral

Resistance: 483 1/2-486***

Pivot: 471-474 3/4

Support: 456 1/2-460*, 448-451

Soybeans

Technicals (July)
July soybean futures looked like they were going to breakout above our pivot pocket and run, but that early morning momentum fizzled out and took prices back near unchanged at the close. Our short-term bias remains Neutral/Bullish, aka Cautiously Optimistic. A break and close below 1199 1/2-1204 would neutralize that bias if not flip it into bearish territory.

Bias: Neutral/Bullish

Resistance: 1232 1/4-1236 3/4, 1252-1259

Pivot: 1220-1225

Support: 1199 1/2-1204, 1182 1/4-1186 1/4

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program.
One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.
