FCPO Spread Analysis: Mixed MovementsThe MAR25-JUN25 spread contract opened at 233 points today. During the morning session, the market dropped to a low of 191 points. However, signs of recovery emerged in the afternoon session, and the contract ultimately ended the day with a modest decline of 14 points, closing at 213 points.
The March contract opened at 4,361 points and trended lower throughout the morning. During midday trading, the price briefly surged to 4,425 points before resuming its downward movement. In the final session, the contract saw a small rebound of 31 points, closing at 4,373 points.
The spread contract settled at 213 points, and the March contract has yet to test the strong support zone of 4,120–4,150 points that I had anticipated. As such, I am holding my position for now. If the March contract drops into the strong support zone, I will exit immediately due to the potential for a rebound in the spread contract.

Head-and-Shoulders Pattern Signals Decline in MAR25-JUN25 SpreadMYX:FCPO1!
The opening price of the MAR25-JUN25 spread contract today was 265 points. During the midday session, the market experienced a sharp decline to 206 points but later recovered, closing at 227 points.
From the daily chart of the MAR25-JUN25 spread contract, a clear head-and-shoulders top pattern can be observed, with today’s closing price falling below the neckline, signaling a bearish trend. Referring to the March FCPO contract, the closing price today was 4,342 points, approximately 200 points above the strong support zone I identified at 4,120–4,150 points. The overall trend remains bearish.
Based on this analysis, I expect the MAR25-JUN25 spread contract to continue its downward movement tomorrow. If tomorrow’s closing price is around 200 points and the March contract has not yet tested the strong support zone, I will hold onto the position. However, if the March contract reaches the strong support zone, it will be necessary to exit the position to mitigate the risk of a rebound in the spread contract.
Market activity during the night session was relatively subdued. I look forward to seeing whether tomorrow’s price action aligns with this analysis.

Palm Oil Market Watch: Technical Breakdown & Fundamental ShakeupIn the ever-changing landscape of the global vegetable oil market, palm oil takes center stage once again. From India’s sharp increase in imports to Indonesia’s biodiesel policy adjustments and Malaysia’s declining export figures, the palm oil market is witnessing a dynamic interplay of forces. On the technical front, critical price levels and trend shifts are adding layers of uncertainty and opportunity for market participants. This article delves into the latest developments and future outlook of the palm oil market through both fundamental and technical perspectives.
1. News and Fundamental Analysis
Anilkumar Bagani, head of research at the Mumbai-based vegetable oil brokerage Sunvin Group, stated that palm oil futures rebounded from earlier weakness because India, the world's largest edible oil importer, increased its palm oil purchases. India bought approximately 100,000 metric tons of palm oil during the first two working days of 2025.
Indonesia’s Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Yuliot Tanjung, announced on Friday that the country would provide a 1.5-month transition period for businesses to meet the new B40 biodiesel policy requirements. Initially, Indonesia planned to mandate a 40% palm oil content in biodiesel starting January 1, but industry stakeholders are still awaiting technical regulations for implementation.
Independent inspection company AmSpec Agri reported on Tuesday that Malaysia's palm oil product exports for November totaled 1,381,837 tons, a 2.5% decrease from November's 1,417,436 tons. Meanwhile, data from Intertek Testing Services (ITS) showed Malaysia’s palm oil product exports for December fell to 1,359,504 tons, down 7.8% from November's 1,473,761 tons.
Palm oil prices followed the trends of other competing edible oils as they vie for market share in the global vegetable oil market. In China, the most active soybean oil contract on the Dalian Commodity Exchange dropped by 2.56%, while the most active palm oil contract declined by 1.36%. The CBOT March soybean oil futures contract remained steady.
2. Technical Analysis
Malaysian BMD crude palm oil (CPO) futures rose on Friday but ended the week with a decline of over 5%, reversing gains from the previous week. The benchmark March CPO contract on BMD increased by RM41, or 0.95%, to RM4,374 per ton.
The weekly chart for the continuous contract FCPO1! shows that prices failed to hold the support level around RM4,500, instead falling to RM4,374. Despite losing the RM4,500 level, the overall upward trend structure remains intact on the weekly chart. The next support level is anticipated around RM4,120. If this level is also breached, it will be necessary to reassess whether the major trend has shifted from bullish to bearish.
On the daily chart for FCPO1!, the overall trend leans bearish. A clear double-top formation is evident, with a neckline break, resistance retest, and distinct downward waves. While support is visible around RM4,250, it is unlikely to be strong. Both the weekly and daily charts for the March contract indicate that RM4,250 does not represent a solid support level.
3. Summary
By referencing the March and continuous contracts, the next significant support level is likely between RM4,120 and RM4,150. Until this support range is breached, the overall trend can be described as long-term bullish with short-term bearish corrections.

FCPO WEEK 51 2024: BULLISH.A retracement followed by a bullish key reversal and an inside bar candle usually a good indication that price would continue higher. Thus next week I'm expecting a higher price for FCPO and TP should be around 5200. However if price failed to move forward beyond the area of 5065 then there is a possibility that price might go lower. For now it is bullish.
FCPO WEEK 50 2024: BULLISH.It is still bullish. It is expected that the price will continue higher or at least tested the 5200 price level. There are 2 options. It will either go ahead bullish on opening next week (OPTION1) or making a retracement to fill in the 4hr GAP and then continue higher (OPTION2). OPTION 2 is the preferred price action.

FCPO WEEK 48 2024: STILL BULLISH.FCPO is having a good retracement last week. Overall the trend is still bullish until proven otherwise. However I'm still expecting a bit more downwards before price settling to start a move a higher. A move below 4600 is a possibility next week. From there, depending on price action, the price might consolidate a bit before starting to move higher.
FCPO WEEK 45 2024: BULLISH.FCPO is bullish. However it starts to look heavy and overbought. Waiting for a retracement lower might be a good idea before committing. If the retracement holds and creates a support area then there is good probability that FCPO will move higher and possibly creating a new higher high above 5000.
FCPO WEEK 43 2024: Bullish retracement.Price has been moving higher after penetrating the neckline of the rounded bottom. Price stays above the neckline for the passed 2 weeks and it should be the indication that momentum is building for a move higher. However expect that price will make a retracement lower to the support area. If this area holds then price should continue higher and possibly making a new higher high.
Happy trading week.
FCPO Week 37 2024: BULLISH.The 4-hour chart indicates a strong upward price movement. An inverted head and shoulders pattern has emerged, with the price breaking above the neckline, marking the first wave of the move. This was followed by a brief consolidation phase, representing the second wave. Now, the price appears ready to resume its upward momentum, potentially forming the third wave. Watch for a breakout as this wave could push prices higher. A buy position may be considered, with a target price of 4018 for potential profit.
FCPO. Aiming higher.
Continuing from our previous analysis (click above image), which alerted us to the probability of a bull trap, the price moved and created a false breakout, then traded back lower to the extreme low swing, thereby confirming the bull trap.
Currently, we observe an initial movement to the upside with strong momentum, suggesting that wave 4 may have reached its bottom.
Our focus is now shifting to the upside, and we expect to see a rally in a motive structure. The invalidation for this idea is set at 3849, where we consider this could be the end of wave 4. The downside movement is limited to this level for this idea.
FCPO. Currently within the range of a bull trap.We observed a price rally that surpassed the extreme swing high of Wave 3. However, at this point, we are only seeing a three-wave advance from the low of Wave 4. It is premature to conclude that Wave 4 has bottomed.
To manage our expectations and account for both scenarios, it remains possible that Wave 4 has not yet reached its bottom.
The alternate count (in purple) suggests the probability of a bull trap being in play.
FCPO. REJECTION AT 38.2%.Following the guidelines in Elliott Wave Theory, "The Right Look" we adjust our wave labeling because the proportion of wave 4 is too large to fit within the subwave structure.
It is a good sign that the price is rejecting decline at the Fibonacci 38.2% level.
Our focus now is on the development of Wave 5. The last wave to complete the Motive cycle.
Invalidation for this idea is at 3872.
Refering to Elliott Wave rules for Wave 5:
"Wave 5 always subdivides into an impulse or a diagonal"
We would expect rallies toward the 4000 area in a classic motive wave structure.
Another possible scenario to consider is the truncation of Wave 5, given that Wave 3 is an extended wave. Truncation happen when Wave 5 fail to move beyond the extreme swing high of Wave 3
Bottom line:
If Wave 4 has ended and Wave 5 is in the early stages of development, any retracement is limited to the 3872 level. Trading below this level will require reassessment of the wave structure.
FCPO. CORRECTIVE PHASEDTime-consuming sideways movement, tight ranges, and numerous overlaps are all characteristics of a corrective wave.
Sideways corrections often tend to retrace 38.2% of the previous impulse wave, particularly when they occur as wave 4. We wait here when the price reaches this level.
We will continue to detail the structure once we have a clear picture. For now, let’s sit back and rilex.
FCPO. HIGHER TO COMPLETE WAVE 3 CYCLEPrice reached 2.618 fibonacci relationship compare to wave 1.
Evaluation based on market structure, we see an extension wave 5 within wave (3) rally.
If wave (3) has ended at fibonacci 2.618 area, we expect to see a 3 wave decline for wave (4) correction.
Elliott Wave Theory:
GUIDELINE OF ALTERNATION WITHIN AN IMPLUSE
" If wave two of an impulse is a sharp correction, expect wave four to be a sideways correction, and vice versa. "
Looking at our price chart, Wave (2) already unfold into a flat pattern and flat pattern is a side way correction. We can expect to see a sharp correction pattern for Wave (4)
BEHAVIOR FOLLOWING FIFTH WAVE EXTENSIONS
" ..when the fifth wave of an advance is an extension, the ensuing correction will be sharp and find support at the level of the low of wave two of the extension. Sometimes the correction ends there and sometimes only wave A ends there... Additional value is provided by the fact that fifth wave extensions are typically followed by swift retracements. "
Projection area and pattern for wave (4) retracement using Elliott Wave Theory for alternation and fifth wave extension theory, expecting to see a sharp correction in wave (4) toward 3900-3880 area.
Bottom line:
Short term view, looking for significant retracement for a sign that wave (3) rally has ended.
Long term view, we are still aiming higher to complete wave 3 cycle on a larger degree.
Trading above yesterday high will required reassesment on the structure.
FCPO. I AM WRONG IN MY PREVIOUS WAVE COUNT.One of the five ways the wave principle improves trading, wave analysis provides a specific point of invalidation, which is the level at which an interpretation is no longer viable.
Knowing when you are wrong is perhaps a trader’s most important piece of information.
Market always right, it was my previous operative wave count is incorrect.
Adjusting to the current structure, wave 3 of 3 already reach 1.618 fibonacci relationship compare to wave 1.
Currently, there is no sign of significant retracement that telling wave 3 of 3 is complete. For now, we still aim high. Next reasonable target is 2.618 fibonacci level where wave 3 is an extended wave.
Let's see what the market will offer us for next week.
Accept failure but never give up, it is part of the process to become a consistently successful
trader!
FCPO. DOUBLE ZIGZAG FORMATION IDEAReassesment of the current wave structure after price break our invalidation level of our previous idea.
As for now, my personal best idea that can be derived from the current market structure is that maybe we area looking at double zigzag formation for november contract.
Invalidation for this idea = 3698
