Soybeans (July)
Technicals: July soybean futures were able to defend trendline support in the prior two sessions which helped spark a rally in yesterday’s trade. That rally has led to follow-through buying in the overnight/early morning trade with July futures making new contract highs. The market has been up here a few times in the past few weeks but failed to find more buyers. Time will tell if this time is different. With the market at new contract highs, the task of finding the next meaningful resistance point becomes more difficult. Going off the continuous chart you could use the February 24th high for the March contract, 1759 ¼ and the April 22nd high from the May contract, 1757 ½. Finding meaningful points above that is a game of pin the tail on the donkey.
Bias: Neutral
Previous Session Bias: Neutral
Resistance: 1757 ½-1760**

Support: 1717-1720***, 1690**, 1673-1679 ½***
