SINGAPORE, Aug 21 (Reuters) - The CBOT soybean November contract SX25 may edge up into a range of $10.41-3/4 to $10.43-3/4 per bushel, as a consolidation within a wedge has extended.
The contract managed to stabilize around the lower trendline of the pattern. The stabilization suggests either an extended consolidation or a continuation of the uptrend.
Support is at $10.32-3/4, a break below which could trigger a fall into the $10.24 to $10.29-1/2 range. On the daily chart, the consolidation in a much bigger wedge seems to be roughly controlled by the 0.864 Fibonacci ratio.
When the ratio is applied to the downtrend from $10.73-1/4, a target of $10.60-3/4 is worked out.
