Grain markets linger near significant resistance, will the market be able to breakout and start another leg higher?
Corn
Technicals (December)
December corn futures were slightly lower in yesterday’s trade, a relatively healthy pullback following a nearly 30 cent rally over the last week and a half. With a little changed session yesterday, our technical levels remain intact. Our pivot pocket from 409-413 remains intact. If the Bulls can clear the top end of this, it could open the door for another round of short covering with the next upside objective coming in from 421 3/4-423 3/4. We wouldn’t be terribly surprised to see the market catch its breath but think there could be more upside potential in sight. If the Bulls fail to defend 409, we could see prices drop back to 401-403 3/4.

Soybeans
Technicals (November)
November soybean futures were under pressure early in yesterday’s trade but fought back to mark their fifth consecutive higher close. The market has again taken pause this morning, will buyers show back up midday? TBD. Resistance remains intact from 1023-1024 1/2, a breakout above that pocket opens the door for 1031 3/4-1035.
