Soybean futures maintain the current bullish tone that started off $1560.50, the Apr 4 low. The primary trend also remains up. The contract is approaching key resistance at $1741.00, Feb 24 high, and needs to clear this level to confirm a resumption of the uptrend. This would open the 1800.00 handle. Weakness below $1560.50, would instead highlight a bearish threat. This would be seen as an important reversal.
