Trade of the week: short soybeans
Even though soybean prices have been rising quickly over the past few days they are approaching a key resistance area where they might falter before resuming their longer-term down trend.
We would thus like to go short soybeans with a stop loss above the key resistance zone at 1,328 and a downside target at 1,150.
