Technicals: CBOT corn may fall into $4.35-3/4 to $4.38-1/4 range
TECHNICALS-CBOT corn may fall into $4.35-3/4 to $4.38-1/4 range SINGAPORE, June 2 (Reuters) - CBOT July corn CN26 may fall into a range of $4.35-3/4 to $4.38-1/4 per bushel, as it has broken a support at $4.42.
A projection analysis of the downtrend from $4.84-1/4 reveals this key support, which is the 161.8% level. This barrier only triggered a very weak bounce to $4.45-1/4.
The downtrend is expected to continue, given that it failed to reverse at $4.42. A break above $4.45-1/4 may lead to a gain into the $4.48-1/4 to $4.52 range.
On the daily chart, a double-top was confirmed, suggesting a target around $4.15. After breaking the neckline at $4.49-1/2, the market is yet to experience a pullback, which may occur around $4.33-1/2.
A break above $4.49-1/2 will invalidate this pattern.
