OPTIONS PLAY: Wheat Makes Another New High
After taking a slight breather the WHEAT market has made yet another new high for the move and I don’t see resistance until the upper $6/bushel range.
MY ANALYSIS
Fundamentally, with talk of drought in Russia WHEAT FUTURES made new highs for the move. I expect the market to continue higher as there are still bullish fundamentals out Europe, North Africa, and South America.
Technically, I see WHEAT FUTURES in a SUPER-TREND higher indicated by both the 20 period moving average and the 9 period moving average almost pointing straight up AND the market holding above those moving averages. See daily chart below. For more charts and studies go to http://www.markethead.com/.
