Soybeans
Technicals (May)
May soybean futures attempted to hold ground yesterday, but it lacked conviction. Prices are giving back those gains in today’s trade. 1155-1160 is the first resistance pocket the Bulls need to overcome to help spark a bigger relief rally. A failure to do so keeps the potential for new lows alive and well.
Bias: Neutral/Bearish
Resistance: 1155-1160, 1170-1175
Pivot: 1150
Support: 1128 1/2-1133 1/2****
