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.

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. Fundamentals: Since both countries, Russia and Ukraine, are major exporter of agriculture goods and their persistent war will lead to a shortage of agricultural goods and give us a bullish bias for soybean .

Soybeans, Corn, Naturals Gas are in Backwardation = shortA simple strategy to sell below a fractal (prior low on the chart) below 18 SMA whenever there is a backardwardation (ticker2!<ticker1!) is currently highly profitable on Soybeans, Corn, Naturals Gas, Cotton Some weeks ago the stategy was profitable on 30 year bonds. On other futures contracts the contango/backwardation might not work as relyable as on the above mentioned instruments, or you have to apply a filter for example only sell short soybeans if backwardation is below -40 (future instrument 40$ and more cheaper)

Soybeans Trade Lower After a Bullish USDA ReportSoybeans Technicals (August): Yesterday’s USDA report put some pep in soybeans step right out of the gat, launching prices all they way up to technical resistance near $16.00. This is obviously a psychologically significant level, but it also represents the 50 and 100 day moving average, along with the breakdown point from June 22nd. Despite the friendly report, the market couldn’t sustain the strength which led to long liquidation at the end of month/quarter. That failure has led to weakness in the overnight and early morning session. The market has retreaded back near our pivot pocket overnight, we’ve had that labeled in previous reports as 1533 ½. The Bulls need to defend this to prevent a further decline and retest of the June 24th lows, 1494 ¾. Below that is 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.

Soybeans Rally Back to the Scene of the CrimeSoybeans Fundamentals: All eyes will be on tomorrow’s USDA report. The range of estimates for planted acres is 89.2-92.4 million, the USDA was at 91.0 in March. The average estimate for US soybean ending stocks as of June 1 is .954 billion bushels. Last year at this time we were at .769. Technicals (August): The market has rallied back to our resistance pocket, which we labeled in yesterday’s report as 1560-1566. This pocket represents the secondary breakdown point from last week. If the Bulls can chew through this pocket, we could see a further extension take us into the mid 1590’2, which is the original scene of the crime, aka breakdown point from June 22nd. This would also be near a psychologically significant level, 1600. If these levels can hold, they would mark lower highs. We would be looking at bearish positioning at these levels if they can hold. Bias: Neutral/Bearish Previous Session Bias: Neutral/Bearish Resistance: 1560-1566***, 1592-1597*** Pivot: 1533 ½ Support: 1494 ¾-1500****, 1451* Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Soybeans Find Their Footing Soybeans Fundamentals: Soybean futures are higher this morning after yesterday’s crop progress report showed a drop in good/excellent conditions of 3%. Keep in mind that we are still 5% better than where we were at this time last year. All eyes will be on Thursday’s USDA report. The range of estimates for planted acres is 89.2-92.4 million, the USDA was at 91.0 in March. The average estimate for US soybean ending stocks as of June 1 is .954 billion bushels. Last year at this time we were at .769. Technicals (August): Soybeans are higher this morning as the market works to retrace and recoup the losses from the big down day last week. In yesterday’s report we talked about our pivot pocket at 1533 ½, stating “If the Bulls are able to chew through this level, we could see a bigger relief rally take us back to the other breakdown points from last week, which are anywhere from 30 to 70 cents higher.”. With that in mind, we would not be surprised to see additional relief come into the market ahead of the USDA report on Thursday.

Soybeans Break Below Support Soybeans (July) Technicals: July soybean futures got hit hard last night and remain under pressure in the early morning trade. 4-star support from 1644 ¾-1650 looked as though it would hold into options expiration, with yesterday’s low coming in at 1647 ½. Those hopes evaporated quickly last night as the breakdown below support accelerated the selling, taking us down near our next support level, 1613 ¾. This level down to $16.00 is trendline support from February. The overnight low is 1610 ½. Previous support is now resistance, that comes in from 1644 ¾-1650.

Soybeans Under Pressure Soybeans Technicals: Soybeans broke lower yesterday, trading right into our 3-star support pocket, 1673-1679 ½. The Bulls have been unable to defend that pocket in the overnight/early morning trade which could take us to our next and more significant support pocket, 1644 ¾-1650. This pocket represents previously important price points and the 100-day moving average. Previous support will now act as our pivot pocket that the Bulls want to get back out above to neutralize the technical damage, that is the pocket mentioned earlier, 1673-1679 ½. Bias: Neutral/Bearish Previous Session Bias: Neutral/Bearish Resistance: 1700 ½-1702**, 1720-1728*** Pivot: 1673-1679 ½ Support: 1644 ¾-1650****, 1613 ¾** Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all investors.

Will Soybeans Stall Out Against Technical Resistance? Soybeans Fundamentals: This morning’s weekly export sales report showed net sales of 317,200 MT for 2021/2022 were down 26 percent from the previous week and 16 percent from the prior 4-week average.

Previous support is now resistance, the significant pocket comes in from 1720-1728. A breakout and close back above here could spark a run higher with new contract highs on the table.

Potential Bearish ContinuationOn the H4, with price moving below the ichimoku cloud and price recently breaking the ascending trend channel, we have a bearish bias that price will drop from the pivot at 1707'6 in line with the 38.2% fibonacci retracement, 78.6% fibonacci projection and overlap resistance to the 1st support at 1661'2 in line with the 61.8% fibonacci projection and pullback support.

Soybeans Struggle to Hold Support Soybeans Technicals: July soybean futures broke and close below trendline support yesterday which opened the door for additional weakness in the overnight session.

Daily Soybean Market Update (6.14.22)Soybeans Fundamentals: Yesterday's weekly crop progress report showed the U.S. soybean crop is 88% planted, 70% emerged, and a Good/Excellent rating of 70%. There were no major surprises here. Yesterday's weekly export inspections report came in at 605,129 metric tons, well above the 365,455 last week and 141,320 we saw in the same week last year. Technicals: Soybean futures broke through support from 1720-1728, this will now act as resistance. A close back above here opens the door for a potential run back at the contract highs and above. There is some trendline support from May 17th-June 7th that is holding well over the past 24 hours. A break and close below here could spark a drop back below $17.00.
