Corn symmetrical triangle upside breakCorn has broken through the upside of a symmetrical triangle, driven by disastrous weather reports across the US. Prices are anticipated to hit 3.752, thereby completing a bearish gartley pattern. It is expected that prices will then travel down to 2.653 which is a 38.2% retracement of AD of the gartley pattern, retest the triangle before moving further higher
Buying Corn @ the Bat @ Trendline; Aiming for the Bearish BatI wanted to show the longer term view. Corn has been bullish but I have patiently been waiting to short at the large bearish bat/2618 trade set-up (linked below).
However if you zoom in you can see the potential buy set-up near the trendline based on 2 different bullish Bat patterns (yellow and pink). I will be watching price action near their completion points to choose which to take. I will move stops to B.E at TP1 of the pattern I choose and will likely choose to aim for the entry of the bearish Bat which would make a great long trade.
(Note: the bearish Cypher (blue) is only valid if the bat patterns do not complete!)
