While prices staged a rally on trade buying, the market failed to climb over the unchanged level and sunk back towards the lows. The December contract also failed to hold its 50 percent retracement at 72.92, from last week's high of 75.38. Support in December was pegged between 72.50 and 72.25, while resistance was seen between 74.00 and 74.50. Market sources blamed weakness on follow through selling from Friday, beneficial rains in West Texas, and a lack of buying interest. Typically, trade remains dull in August as players await the harvest. The December contract closed 0.53 lower at 72.51, having ranged from 73.00 to 72.30. October ended off 0.60 to 72.12, while the back months finished 0.51 to 0.10 lower. Volume was estimated at 6,500 lots. 201032 MET aug 96
