Soybean futures remain in a downtrend and recent weakness confirmed a resumption of the medium-term bear cycle. Note that moving average studies are in a bear-mode set-up too and this continues to highlight a clear bearish trend sequence. Scope is seen for a move towards the $1000.00 psychological handle. Initial firm resistance is $1112.44, the 50-day EMA. Short-term gains are considered corrective.
