November Beans
November soybean satisfied the fourth downside PriceCount objective and is attempting an overdue near term correction higher. This suggests we may have come far enough for this phase of the bear run although the weekly chart has an open third count to the $9.07 area that keeps the downside potential open on a longer term basis.
PriceCounts – Not about where we’ve been, but where we might be going next!
