The next downside price objective for the rejuvenated bears is to produce a close below strong technical support at the October low of $3.64, basis December corn futures. Below that lies chart support at the $3.50 level. Overhead chart resistance for December corn is located at Thursday’s high of $4.91 1/2 and then at $4.00. It would take a close above strong chart resistance at last week’s high of $4.33 to provide the bulls with fresh upside near-term technical momentum to suggest that a fresh uptrend in prices can be sustained.–Stay tuned!–Jim Wyckoff
