July Soft Red Winter Wheat Prices May Have Found a Bottom. Here Are the Levels to Watch Before You Buy.![]() July SRW wheat futures (ZWN25) present a buying opportunity on more price strength. See on the daily bar chart for July soft red winter wheat futures that prices have rebounded from the March low to begin to suggest a market bottom is in place. See at the bottom of the chart that the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator is also now in a bullish mode, as the red MACD line has just crossed above the blue trigger line. Recent rallies in corn (ZCK25) and soybean (ZSN25) futures markets to multi-week highs are also friendly for the winter wheat markets. Weather in U.S. winter wheat country has been significantly less than ideal over the past few months, with extreme temperature changes, high winds, and a lack of precipitation. This has likely reduced U.S. winter wheat production potential. The recent devaluation of the U.S. dollar on the foreign exchange market is also making U.S. wheat more price-competitive on world trade markets. A move in July SRW wheat futures above chart resistance at last week’s high of $5.71 would give the bulls fresh power and it would also become a buying opportunity. The upside price objective would be $6.25, or above. Technical support, for which to place a protective sell stop just below, is located at $5.50. ![]() IMPORTANT NOTE: I am not a futures broker and do not manage any trading accounts other than my own personal account.
