What May Trigger A Spring in Wheat?
18 March 2010
The Commodity Specialist view -

WHEAT - WEEKLY CONTINUATION CHART:
On this long term chart a 23.6% recovery level previously provided clear resistance, and we still look for this retracement to be exceeded in order to adopt a medium term bull outlook.
Recent weakness has stopped some way short of the 425.25 Sep-09 low, the 455.00 Dec-08 low offering first support here.

WHEAT DAILY CHART -
MAY-10:
On the front month chart last year's low came in at 472.00, support trying to form above this currently.
So far resistance has emerged from the 527.75 17-Dec low, with a s/term bear channel top running below this at 520 now.
A break/close above this would be an initial bull signal.
However, there is higher 540 resistance from a rising return line which must be overcome for bull confirmation, and warns against chasing price up here.
We can then target towards the 587 Jan high initially (near to a 76.4% bounce - not shown).
