Weather is similar to yesterday. Moisture opportunities exist through-Sun across the Midwest, with lightest totals expected in parts of IA and IL. The next moisture opportunities will be found late next week. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Wheat will find tech-based buying and short-covering activity provide support. Inter-market spread corrective activity could also provide buying energy. New news is limited. We are poised for corrective strength and it is possible that it could be quite significant. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Corn traversed both sides overnight with a weak tone. Short-term technical conditions suggest some buying interest could build, possibly setting the stage for another probe to new highs. New news is limited. Fundamental traders are universally bullish. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Soybeans traded on both sides overnight in choppy activity. New news is limited. Weather forecasts are similar to yesterday. Short-term technical conditions are poised to prompt buying interest. A test/probe of this week's high is a possibility, but overall conditions warn not to trust such strength and to be concerned about a more significant liquidation event than the one seen during the past two weeks. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
In summary, short-term technical conditions are poised to encourage buying interest and price firming. A test/probe of this week's highs remains possible. We seem capable of a firm trade today, despite choppy overnight weakness. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
CORN:
Barge Values: July= +67 U
CZ: Support= 7.25,   Resistance= 8.25-35
**PROFILE: Dec Corn> Short-term conditions poised for recovery strength. Tests/probes of current highs are possible, but likely unsustainable amid conditions that warn of a major liquidation event ahead. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
SOYBEANS:
Barge Values: July= +110 Q
SX: Support= 15.50-60, Resistance= 16.55-75
SMZ: Support= 440, Resistance= 500-05
BOZ: Support= 52.00, Resistance= 54.25
**PROFILE: Nov Soybeans> Short-term conditions poised for rally effort. Any test/probe of this week's highs will lack sustainability. IN SUMMARY, expect another liquidation phase to unfold after another test/probe of this week's highs. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
WHEAT:
Barge SRW Values: July= +10 U
WU: Support= 8.50, Resistance= 9.15-30
**PROFILE: Chicago September Wheat> Short-term conditions poised to prompt a notable recovery rally. Correction activity in inter-market spreads to provide buying energy also. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
