Soybean Futures (ZS1!), H4 Potential for Bullish RiseType : Bullish Rise Resistance : 1508'4 Pivot: 1438'6 Support : 1400'4 Preferred Case: On the H4, with prices moving above the ichimoku indicator and broken out of the descending trendline , we have a bullish bias that price will rise from the pivot at 1438'6 where the pullback support and 23.6% fibonacci retracement are to the 1st resistance at 1508'4 where the swing high resistance is. Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could break pivot structure and drop to the 1st support at 1400'4 where the pullback support, 38.2% fibonacci retracement and 78.6% fibonacci projection are. Fundamentals: Since Russia and Ukraine are major exporter of agriculture goods, their persistent war will lead to a shortage of agricultural goods and give us a bullish bias for soybean .

Soybeans Rally Over $1.00 Off Friday's LowSoybeans Technicals (September): September wheat futures are officially over a dollar off Friday’s low, testing the 200-day moving average and the upper end of our first resistance pocket, 1411 ¾. If the Bulls can keep the momentum going above here, we could see a retest of the congestion pocket from 1444 ½-1455. Our bias has been at Neutral/Bullish aka cautiously optimistic, but a retest of the congestion pocket may have us looking back to neutral and possibly bearish.

Soybeans Threatening the Recent Lows Soybeans Fundamentals: This morning’s weekly export sales report showed Net sales of 203,500 MT for 2021/2022 and 254,700 MT for 2022/2023. Yesterday morning, private exporters reported sales of 136,000 metric tons of soybeans for delivery to China during the 2022/2023 marketing year. Technicals: The 200-day moving average has held as support over the last few weeks, but it's looking as though that may be coming to an end with prices threatening the low end of the range from July 5th and 6th. A break and close below this pocket could take us closer to the psychologically significant $14.00 handle.

Soybeans Finishing Intermediate Wave 4 with Bearish Seasonality Soybeans are currently in minor wave D of an intermediate wave 4 triangle. Once soybeans break out of the triangle, they will begin intermediate wave 5 down to at least the 1212'4 (0.5 Fibonacci level) area for November soybeans, possibly lower. This is also happening during the summer months when soybean prices typically decrease. If you bought soybeans on July 20 and sold soybeans on September 28 every year for the past 8 years, you would have lost money for 6 of those years (75%).

Crop Conditions DeclineSoybeans Fundamentals: Yesterday’s weekly export inspections came in at 362,622 metric tons, roughly 4,000 more than last week. The weekly Crop Progress report showed good/excellent conditions at 61%, 1% lower than last week. 48% of the crop is blooming. Technicals: August soybean futures ran up into our congestion pocket yesterday, which we had listed as 1513 ¼-1516 ½. The market was unable to get out above this pocket which led to some profit taking into the close. That profit taking has continued into the overnight and early morning trade, as prices retreat to give back all of yesterday’s gains. The 200-day moving average has acted as good support over the last two-weeks, we will see if it holds again. That comes in at 1466 ¼. As with corn, our bias remains Neutral as we see short term opportunities for participants on both sides of the market.

August Soybean Futures Update Soybeans Commitments of Traders Update: Friday's CoT report showed Managed Money were net sellers of 25,717 futures/options contracts through July 12th. Majority of this was long liquidation, 17,257 contracts. This shrinks the net position of Managed Money to 95,711 contracts. Technicals (August) : Soybeans have been frequent flyers of the 200-day moving average recently, which has held as good support. Futures are higher in the early morning trade, testing the upper end of the back half of last week's trade. If the Bulls can sustain this momentum through the open, we could see an extension towards the psychologically significant $15 handle and above that, our congestion pocket near 1515.

On The EdgeSoybeans Fundamentals: Chinese GDP missed expectations last night, coming in at .4% in the second quarter from a year ago. Analysts were expecting growth at 1%. Retail sales in China rose more than expected, to 3.1%. On deck is U.S. retail sales, 7:30 AM CT. This will likely have an impact on outside markets, which have recently had an impact on money-flow in commodities. Expectations are for .8% month over month. Techncials: August soybeans continue to linger near the 200-day moving average, trading on it for 7 out of the last 9 sessions. Our pivot pocket remains intact from 1452-1461 ¼. A break and close below here could lead to a retest of last week’s lows. If the Bulls can continue to defend support, the first upside objective would be 1495-1505. With that said, our feelings on soybeans are similar to corn, where we think there could continue to be multiple short-term opportunities for market participants on both sides of the market. Bias: Neutral Previous Session Bias: Neutral Resistance: 1495-1505*, 1513 ¼-1516 ½, 1530-1538*, 1552 ¾-1560 Pivot: 1452-1461 ¼ Support: 1413 ¾-1424 ¼, 1400-1403** Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Soybeans Gap Higher, Will it Hold?Soybeans Technicacls: The market sling-shotted higher last night. Our first resistance in Friday’s report was 1495-1505. Our next resistance pocket didn’t come in until 1560-1566, which the market came very close to tagging last night. As with corn, we are in the sell rallies camp. A conviction close or consecutive close back above $16.00 would neutralize that bias. First support/our pivot point comes in from 1513 ¼-1516 ¼. Bias: Neutral/Bearish Previous Session Bias: Neutral/Bearish Resistance: 1560-1566***, 1592-1597*** Pivot: 1513 ¼-1516 ½ Support: 1495-1505***, 1452-1457***, 1413 3/4-1424 1/4***, 1400-1403**** Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Soybeans Treading Near Significant Levels Soybeans Seasonal Trends in Play: Short November soybeans from 7/1-8/31. This has been profitable for 13 of the last 15 years with the average gain being roughly 40 cents, or $2,000 per one 5,000-bushel contract. Fundamentals: Yesterday's weekly Crop Progress report showed good/excellent conditions at 63%, this is a 2% drop from last week and 1% lower than expectations. Compared to last year, that number is 4% better. 3% of the crop is setting pods and 16% is blooming. Weekly export inspections came in at 354,987 metric tons, below the range of estimates. Technicals: Soybeans got taken to the woodshed yesterday, breaking below the 200-day moving average and the 50% retracement. That forms a pocket form 1452-1457. If the Bulls can chive a close back above this pocket, we could see an attempt at filling the gap from yesterday's open, that comes in from 1495-1505. A failure to close back of this pocket could keep the selling pressure on. There's been significant technical damage done over the last few weeks, so a rally would likely just be relief in a downward trending market. Our bias remains in bearish territory, despite the high probability of a decent relief rally. Bias: Neutral/Bearish Previous Session Bias: Neutral/Bearish Resistance: 1495-1505****, 1560-1566***, 1592-1597*** Pivot: 1452-1457 Support: 1413 3/4-1424 1/4***, 1400-1403**** Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Soybeans Retreat to the 200-Day Moving Average Soybeans Commitments of Traders Update: Friday’s CoT report showed Managed Money were net sellers of 29,914 futures/options contracts through June 28th. Majority of this was long liquidation, 26,432 contracts. This shrinks their net long position to 124,498 futures/options. Fundamentals: Late last week there were rumors circulating that 8 cargoes of soybeans were cancelled; this would certainly help explain the extensive selling we saw on Friday. Scattered rains over the weekend may help prices see some continuation of long liquidation. Technicals: The big drop on Friday was ugly on the screen, especially when considering the reversal on Thursday off resistance near $16.00. The market finished roughly 90 cents off those Thursday highs and are now threatening to take out the recent lows1494 ¾-1500. A break and close below here would open the door for a run at the 200-day moving average, 1456. Bias: Neutral/Bearish Previous Session Bias: Neutral/Bearish Resistance: 1560-1566***, 1592-1597*** Pivot: 1533 ½ Support: 1494 ¾-1500****, 1456** Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Soybean Mini Futures (XK1!), H1 Potential for Bearish DropType : Bearish Momentum Resistance : 1580'4 Pivot: 1495'1 Support : 1420'2 Preferred Case: On the H1, with price moving below the ichimoku cloud and along a descending trendline , we have a bearish bias that price will drop to the pivot at 1495'1 in line with the swing low support. Once there is downside confirmation of price breaking pivot structure, we would expect bearish momentum to carry price to the 1st support at 1420'2 where the 161.8% fibonacci extension and 61.8% fibonacci projection are. Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price may rise to the 1st resistance at 1580'4 where the overlap resistance and 38.2% fibonacci retracement are.
