2 Key Reasons to Buy SRW Wheat Futures Now![]() September soft red winter wheat futures (ZWU25) present a buying opportunity on more price strength. See on the daily bar chart for September soft red winter wheat futures that prices have rebounded from the May low and recent price action has formed a bullish head-and-shoulders bottom reversal pattern. See, too, at the bottom of the chart that the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator is also in a bullish mode as the red MACD line is above the blue trigger line and both lines are trending up. Fundamentally, U.S. winter and spring wheat (KWN25) growing conditions over the past few months have not been ideal. This includes too much rain in hard red winter wheat regions the past couple weeks, which may reduce the quality of the crop. There have also been adverse weather conditions in Asian and European wheat regions the past few months. The recent slide in the U.S. Dollar Index ($DXY) is also a price-friendly development for U.S. wheat futures markets. Most grain is priced in U.S. dollars on the world trade markets. A depreciating greenback makes U.S. wheat more price-competitive on the world trade markets. A move in September wheat futures prices above chart resistance at $5.60 would 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 $5.40. ![]() IMPORTANT NOTE: I am not a futures broker and do not manage any trading accounts other than my own personal account.
