CBOT corn to hover above $4.42-1/2

By Reuters News

- A bearish target of $4.25-3/4 per bushel has been aborted for CBOT December corn as the market reacted strongly to the support at $4.42-1/2.

There was a false break below the support at $4.42-1/2. The market is likely to bounce further or hover above this level for a few days.

The bounce is considered to be against the downtrend from the October 7 high of $5.09-3/4. A retracement analysis on the trend reveals a target zone of $4.65-1/4 to $4.73-3/4.

On the hourly chart, the market is expected to retest a resistance at $4.53-3/4, a break above which could lead to a gain into the $4.56-3/4 to $4.56-3/4 range.

Immediate support is at $4.47-1/2, a break below which could trigger a fall into $4.43 to $4.44-3/4 range.
