Cocoa: The next step 🪜After a minor consolidation phase in which the price of cocoa stagnated just below the pink trend line, the next step of the magenta wave (5) was completed: a clear breakout above this line. We now expect a larger upward expansion until the magenta five-wave move and thus the superior white wave (B) is completed. After this top, the price should go down again - first with the magenta wave back towards the trendline.

Coffee: Caffeine's about to hit ☕The coffee price has been moving downward since February last year within the framework of the superior wave Y in turquoise. In our primary expectation, however, this descent should not last much longer. In the orange target zone between USX 144.40 and USX 136.40, it should come to the low, followed by subsequent rises. Only falling below the zone would put a spoke in the wheel. Then, the price would have to drop much further within our 35% probable alternative before the reversal sets in.
SB1! Futures Chart- Sugar id front of a great resistance which fights to break it. for the moment it is in a bearish phase if it doesnt break the level of (11) with power
- For the moment there is a very high probability that the market will return to test the level of (9.60) . which is going to be an important
support.
- And if ever it breack it there is an 80% probability that the market will move to (8.36)
No frost in BrazilSeems like no frost in Brazil. It was a busy weeks last week and throughout the weekend with fears a frost could hit coffee areas. None has been confirmed and worst fears did not play out.
Once all of this is digested I expect some downside opportunities as the market goes back into trading technicals rather than emotions.
Quite oversold and we saw sell signals on RSI and Stochastik a while ago.
Also, the 5 hour chart will provide with a sell signal, which has been a superb indicator of short term price action (5-10 days).
I am short via 1x2 calendar put spreads, long the 135s in Q and short the 125s in U and various other like this. As we move lower, option vega will come in and provide some nice profits.
Also, selling the Sep (U16) contract provides with some good premium as this is considered the frost month.
Looking at futures spreads, they have been weak the past two trading sessions and also foreshadow price action.
Support at 134, then nothing until 125
After reaching 50; sideways to lower. downside targetsAfter reaching 50, as expected some sideways action. sold the 52c around 1.05 around 2 weeks ago.
I am neutral, because this looks like a correction of the prevailing uptrend as indicated in the dark red trendchannel.
Downside support are the blue trend line at around 48.20 and the 20 day MA or middle BBand.
Further on the downside we are looking at the lower trend channel between 46 and 47
For now I am covering the 52 calls and wait to sell some put spreads or puts until we reach the lower trend channel
Not bad risk/reward IMHOPro bullish:
- Slight bullish divergence on RSI and Stochastik
- market running into support at lower end of trend channel
- lower Bband at lows
- Spreads steady
Pro neutral:
- nothing clear cut yet in terms of buy signal
This is a good risk reward IMHO
SB Sugar turning neutral in light of bearish engulfingTurning neutral and watching closely. I think good entry for e retracement IMHO
- RSI & Stochastik with bearish indications and market is very overbought.
- bearish engulfing and hanging man (confirmed with bearish engulfing)
- spreads have been weak the last three days already indicating a trend change
I am neutral with a bearish bias, but need more confirmation IMHO
SB Bullish, still on trackStill bullish SB as it appreciated over the past month. It really gained momentum has it had to break out from oversold conditions.
What happened over the course was the term structure (future spreads) are now in backwardation for the entire next year. This leaves me with remaining bullish as it foreshadows supply tightness coming out of Brazil.
Also the USDBRL has come off of its highs and could provide some further support for a rally
