CBOT wheat may stabilise around $5.87-1/4 and bounce
CBOT September wheat WU3 may stabilise around a support of $5.87-1/4 per bushel, and bounce again towards a resistance zone of $6.12-3/4 to $6.19-1/2.
The downtrend from $7.40 looks exhausted, as confirmed by the bullish divergence on the hourly RSI. A consolidation or a decent bounce is due.
The support of $5.87-1/4 is strengthened by a similar one of $5.88. Together, these supports formed a zone that is likely to cause a bounce.
A break below $5.88 may open the way towards $5.77-1/4. On the daily chart, a strong support at $5.91 may work again to trigger a bounce, which could be much weaker than the one from the May 31 low of $5.87-3/4.
The doji on Wednesday sent the very first signal of the second bounce. Wheat has to close above $5.91 on Thursday, to nurture the bounce. A failure may be followed by a drop into $5.39-1/2 to $5.66-1/4 range.
