Cocoa toppingSeems cocoa is finding a way lower. On the monthly I see too much pressure building. Path of least resistance is likely to the downside at this point. I prefer to get in a bit early than wait for the pennant to break to the downside (if it does).
Cocoa
CC1! - COCOA POSSIBLE BREAKOUT WITH HIGHER HIGHSCOCOA is in a corrective phase on weekly chart. I'm expecting one more wave down to previous lows or near the rising trendline before a strong wave up. Good possibilities to make higher highs. A strong breakout on rising trendline invalidates this setup.
Change buy from neutral as strong support was found on trendlinePro Long:
- Trend line provided massive support (dark red line)
- High volume at support and during the rally
- future spreads very strong (N16-U16 turned into backwardation)
- If we close positive today 7 MA will cross 20 MA generating buy signal
Contra Long:
- running into resistance on middle Bollinger Band (20 day MA)
I sold the 2900 puts last week as a sideways prediction was put in place and will keep that position and add once I see a pull back into the lower trend line
Neutral/Buy cocoa on ascending support lineBuy signal on RSI and Stochastik accompanied with a ascending support line provides good entry point for a long position. via Short puts or short put spread out in Sep16 delivery month.
Expect sideways action then upside targets would be 9 day MA around 3000 and 20 day MA at 3100 (both sloping down, so expect more sideways before a rise
Cocoa is getting ready to make a moveI have been neutral on CC for the past few weeks, but something is brewing. I favor a break towards the upside for following reasons IMHO:
1. Support area; failed to break to downside;
2. Broke out of downtrend.
3. Future spreads went back in backwardation
4. Buy signals on RSI and Stochastik
5. Bollinger Bands are very tight
