Soybean Trade Technical Analysis - Soybean Trade Trading: 2019-05-03

High US supply expectations bearish for soybean prices

High US soybean supply estimate is expected to be reported in May WASDE report. Will the soybean prices continue declining?

The USDA is expected to report high soybean supply in its monthly World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimate to be released on May 10. And while China and US negotiators appear close to reaching a trade deal, China’s import demand appears significantly impaired as African swine fever devastated the country’s hog industry: China’s imports through March were down 17% from year-ago levels. And weather patterns point to increasing likelihood of high US soybean yields contributing to a record crop for seventh year in a row as El Nino extends into autumn. Higher supply estimates are bearish for soybean.

Soybean is falling below MA(200) 05/01/2019 Technical Analysis IFC Markets chart

On the daily timeframe the SOYB: D1 is below the 200-day moving average MA(200) which is flat.

  • The Parabolic indicator gives a sell signal.
  • The Donchian channel indicates no trend yet: it is flat.
  • The MACD indicator gives a bearish signal: it is below the signal line and the gap is widening.
  • The Stochastic oscillator is in the oversold zone, this is bullish.

We believe the bearish momentum will continue after the price breaches below the lower boundary of Donchian channel at 843.3. This level can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to sell. The stop loss can be placed above the upper Donchian boundary at 894.9. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved every day to the next fractal high, following Parabolic signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level (894.9) without reaching the order (843.3), we recommend cancelling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account.
