Market Overview – Grain Express
Corn (December) Fundamentals: This morning’s weekly export sales report showed net sales of 1,039,900 MT for 2021/2022 were down 18 percent from the previous week, but up 85 percent from the prior 4-week average. Technicals: In yesterday’s report we talked about moving our bias from outright Neutral, into bullish territory. This was based on several technical indicators, market sentiment, and seasonality. Significant support from 497 ½-507 was tested and held, for the fourth time since the middle of May. As mentioned in yesterday’s interview with RFD-TV, this is a wider support pocket than we would typically use, but it is SIGNIFICANT. Buying into a support pocket like that gives you a good risk/reward trade. A break and close below that pocket and it’s time to take your medicine and move on. The overall sentiment has been bearish for the last few weeks and Tuesday’s USDA report was the cherry on top. That coupled with harvest being over the half-way point, what more bearish news can be thrown at the market in the very near term? Not a lot, shifting the risk to the upside. Does that mean a long-term bottom is in? No. But conditions were ripe for a relief rally, which has brought prices back to our pivot pocket, 519-521. If the Bulls can chew through this pocket, we could see an extension towards 532-533. All in all, this will continue to be a trader’s market, plenty of short-term opportunity for market participants on both sides of the ball.
