CBOT wheat to rise to $5.50

30 Oct, 2014

SINGAPORE: A bullish target at $5.50 per bushel has been established for CBOT Dec. wheat, as it has cleared a resistance at $5.36-3/4.

The resistance, as provided by the 23.6 percent Fibonacci retracement on the fall from the May 6 high of $7.65 to the Sept. 25 low of $4.66-1/4. The next resistance will be at $5.50, established by the upper channel line of a rising channel.

Indeed, the break above $5.36-3/4 has opened the way towards $5.80-1/4, the 38.2 percent level. A drop to $5.33 could signal the break was false, and wheat may then find a support at $5.23, established by the lower channel line.
