CORN: 
On the charts: With more sideways action on the May contract, corn is now following the other grains lower. Support is seen at $3.50, and major support again at $3.25 on the lead month contract. Overhead resistance is seen at $3.75 and the main trend line cuts across the $4 level on the weekly charts. The indicators are in an oversold area and the main trend is still down.

SOYBEANS:
On the charts: The May soybeans are still confined in a narrow range of $8.75 to $9 on the charts with no clear direction. We are experiencing good short term support at $8.50 on May contract and a very broad base which could prove to be quite bullish in the coming months. Meanwhile, there is well defined overhead resistance at the $9-$9.25 levels as we have seen for the past few months.  Our main support continues to hold at the $8.40-$8.50 level on the May contract and a close below these levels could spark a selloff which could take the beans below $8. All indicators are still negative and the main trend remains down.

WHEAT: 
On the charts: We have switched to the May wheat contract for our technical analysis since the March contract first notice day is February 29. This week was anything but quiet, as we saw a twenty cent loss on the futures prices as the March contract prepares to go to cash. Our May contract is back to the support levels of $4.40 to $4.50. We closed today February 24 at $4.52 on our May contract. We could see more downside as the March feels pressure from liquidation as it closes out and heads to cash. This is looking like a washout that usually precedes a possible bottom, but until we see signs of a daily reversal I need to emphasize caution from trying to bottom pick. Our next major support is still around $4.25 on the May contract. Meanwhile current support is still holding at $4.40-$4.50 on the May contract with major overhead resistance now at $4.75- $5. Both the medium and long term trends remain down.
