Corn Retest Chance TomorrowBased on seasonality and current price, the downside direction is more probable. Depending on how strong will be tomorrow's move, I will decide one of the two ways to trade it.
a] Direct bounce off resistance 4.065 with stop-loss nearing 4.165, which is resistance plus average true range. For this, I want to see overlapping candles decreasing in size (volume considered) as we approach the resistance.
b] The second option is to wait until the resistance is broken and stand by until we return to it. I will use this if the further breach is imminent.
Either way, I don't think corn can rally now when the trade war is getting hotter and seasonality says "No!" I will be looking to sell when the price gets to the extended Keltner Channels areas. Could be around 3.7
Head and Shoulders on CornCorn has been forming a head and shoulders pattern since the start of June. We got close to breaking the pattern in the right shoulder ($4.59 was the price to beat and we got to $4.53). While we aren't in the total collapse phase of the market yet - we could start that at any time now.

Weekly Vision:
Corn - short on the cob.....Corn has been over a long period within defined range. It appears a double top may have been made over recent months.
Price is now approaching an important support level.
If price breaks this level, we are looking to enter a short on a retest of the level as resistance.
Entry - 4.05
Stop - above the moving average cross
Target - bottom of channel 3.35
RR = 4
Corn - Looking Stronger BuyI have been hovering over the buy button on corn past week. Wasn't convinced enough to enter, and now heading back to Fib retracement towards $4. The closer to this the stronger chance of a rally - from either fundamentals coning out due to crop damage and lower yields, and also some technical short closing since last rally. Keeping in mind the August report, there could be some positioning before here too from fund managers, adding to volatility. That said, if crops are seen as doing well, with ample inventories, and no substantial buying even though China tariff waiver, prices could continue the current short term bearish trend and breeze through $4 down to $3.80. RSI already showing oversold on shorterm though with possible technicals support current prices and allow for some upside. Overall still see risk to upside despite last week's drop.
Corn - Leaning Towards Nice Long TradeI feel corn is an easy trade at moment. If we look at 4.29 as a kind of average way point at the moment.
If it shoots above that with more news of more crop issues in US, look for an overbought RSI to short or jump on the long train if feel confident. There are uncertainties of the amount of acreage planted, and extended heat causing further crop damage, but there is a good harvest in South American (from my understanding)
But if cooling this week ahead, and crop acreage isn't as bad as people thinking, could be a price breakdown below $4.
Basically, prices below that way point of 4.29 I wouldn't short, and above that I wouldn't long. I want to see some fundamental reason for long or short. Though if wanted to place a position at start of week, I would open a long with low risk equity position.
I feel that risk is to upside at moment, with some bullish news easily pushing to $5. Though over this, demand side reduction could occur, so if it gets there, a short position should be considered.
Unless some overly bearish news, I don't see any huge price drops, and see support around that current $4 - $4.29 level, I see this as an easy long trade (unless fundamental breakdown)

Daily Analysis:
$CORN/USD might face serious uptrend. This is not technical analysis but its more likely related with the CoT report which shows potential short on commercials and long on speculators. The reason I believe we will have uptrend:
1. CoT commercials are short as they used to be back in August 2010.
2. There are significant floods in US which devastated the crops.
3. It already broke the descending triangle.
What could go wrong:
1. We had same position on CoT traders in May 2018 which led to drop in the price.
2. US could import corn.
However, I am still bullish on this one and the potential trade will be:
Entry point 4.62, TP: 5.30 - Hedge or SL:3.95-3.85
CoT data in the comments:
Corn/USD Bearish Divergence- Corn have an exponential growth recent month. but i expect a consolidation after it hit the 2.618 fib line(golden ratio fib) area just like in 29 may 2019.
- Bearish Divergence sighted but it could be negated if the indicators could rise in a same level as a previous level high.
- expect a golden ratio fib, EMA and SMA as a potential support and resistance line.
peace.
