June 24 (Reuters) -Cotton prices rebounded on Monday to hit a more than two-week high as the dollar weakened from its recent high, while support also came in from the grains and oil market.

* The dollar .DXY eased from a near eight-week high, making cotton cheaper for other currency holders. USD/

* The dollar is down but "you carved out a low back on Monday of last week, maybe you had some value buying coming in at those lows and I think you might see it continue," said Jon Marcus, president of Lakefront Futures and Options brokerage in Chicago.

* Cotton on June 17 dipped to touch 70 cents, pressured by expectations of good weather boosting supplies in the key growing region and a strong dollar. COT/N

* "You may have seen your low on last Monday, that's very possible, but I don't think you're going to trade much higher than 76 cents," Marcus added.

* Extending support, Chicago wheat rose in bargain-buying after hitting its lowest since April, while soybeans rose with the impact on U.S. crops of mixed weather with heat and some rain being assessed. GRA/

* Oil prices edged up slightly making cotton-substitute polyester more expensive.O/R

* "Now the wild card in all of this is if you get some kind of bullish surprise with the numbers on Friday (acreage report)," Marcus said.

* The market is now looking forward to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's annual acreage report, to be released at noon EDT (1600 GMT) on Friday, June 28.
