CBOT Trends-Wheat and corn down 1-2 cents, soybeans down 2-3

CHICAGO, Nov 21 (Reuters) - Following are U.S. expectations for the resumption of grain and soy complex trading at the Chicago Board of Trade at 8:30 a.m. CST (1430 GMT) on Friday.

NOTE: Friday is the last trading day for CBOT December grain and soy options.

WHEAT - Down 1 to 2 cents per bushel

• Wheat futures ticked lower as focus returned to an ample global supply of the grain.

• The small volume of wheat sold to China failed to push prices higher.

• Rains forecast for the weekend in the U.S. Plains is expected to improve the crop, an analyst note said.

• December soft red winter wheat WZ25 was last down 3/4 cent at $5.26-1/4 per bushel. K.C. December hard red winter wheat KWZ25 was last up 1-1/2 cents at $5.07-3/4 a bushel and Minneapolis December wheat MWEZ25 was last down 1-3/4 cents at $5.71 a bushel.

CORN - Down 1 to 2 cents per bushel

• Corn futures ticked lower on technical selling, analysts notes said.

• The U.S. Department of Agriculture reported U.S. corn export sales for the week ended October 2 at 2,259,700 metric tons, toward the high end of a range of estimates.

• CBOT December corn CZ25 was last down 3/4 cent at $4.25-3/4 per bushel.

SOYBEANS - Down 2 to 3 cents per bushel

• Soybean futures edged lower on Friday at the end of a see-saw week during which Chinese purchases of U.S. beans pushed prices to a 17-month high before doubts about whether China would sustain such buying punctured the rally.

• China's soybean purchases remain far off the 12 million tons that U.S. officials said it promised to buy by year-end.

• CBOT January soybeans SF26 were last down 3-1/2 cents at $11.19 per bushel.
