CBoT corn long play in the making.

Long
CBOT:ZCZ2016   Corn Futures (Dec 2016)
Corn:
Price had its additional push down and probably completed its move down after losing some 23% from its high on June 17 which is only 3 weeks ago. The price more or less reached the targeted buying region during the past week which was a bit earlier than what we were anticipating one week ago and the big question now is whether it is time to entertain a long play from here. The weekly chart (not attached/displayed) is showing a classic 'Hammer' which could come right out of the textbooks for TA traders. A 'Hammer' is a fairly reliable bode that the end of the downtrend is imminent but needs confirmation. In any case we can conclude that the move down is very mature at least.
A further move up on Monday/Tuesday and notably to the 375 level would actually confirm that a reverse is there and that we will trade higher levels from here. One more modest push down to the 345 should not be excluded and is a buy region as well with stops at 335 or so.
