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.

Invalidation for this idea = 3698
FCPO Week 31 2024: Waiting for break thorugh.Last week, prices moved within a narrow range between 3900 and 4000. Unless there is a significant move that breaks through this range, either higher or lower, the market will likely remain neutral. This week, pay special attention to this range, particularly the levels closer to 4000, as a breakout in this area could signal a strong market move.
FCPO Week 30 2024: Slight bullish potential.Last week, it was anticipated that the price would retrace higher before moving lower. However, this did not materialize. The 3900 to 4000 range remains a critical area, with the price continuing to move within this band. Currently, forecasting the outlook is challenging, but based on recent price reactions, the market appears to favor the bulls. Next week, we will be looking for opportunities to buy, anticipating that the price will move higher.

FCPO Week 29 2024: Bearish in motion.Based on last week's price action, FCPO appears to be trending lower. Pay close attention to the price movements between 3955 and 4000. If bearish price action is observed within this range, it could present a good opportunity to enter a short position.

FCPO Week 28 2024: Support retest and then higher.Last week, the price broke through the 4,000 resistance area and closed above it. However, it hasn't moved significantly higher and is currently consolidating. It's expected that the price might retest the 4,000 area before moving higher towards the 4,200 level. If the price drops significantly, the outlook could change, potentially reversing the trend. Given the short trading week, adopting a wait-and-see strategy to observe the next price action might be wise.
FCPO Week 27 2024: still in range. Neutral.There was a slight upward movement last week, likely due to the price reacting to the support area. However, strong resistance remains at the 4,000 level. The recent bounce from support might reach this resistance and result in continued consolidation. Range traders can benefit from this environment while it persists. Trend traders, on the other hand, may prefer to wait for a significant breakthrough above the resistance or below the support levels to confirm a new trend.
FCPO Week 26 2024: Indecision.Another week of consolidation for FCPO. The price remains range-bound, suggesting that without a decisive move higher or lower, FCPO is unlikely to make significant progress.
For range traders, consider going long at support levels and targeting resistance, or vice versa. For trend traders, it may be prudent to wait for clearer price action. A strong movement toward either support or resistance is necessary to establish a meaningful trend.
FCPO Week 25 2024: Still in consolidation.The price remains within its range, showing minimal movement last week. Despite expectations, it has not made any significant progress upward. The outlook suggests that the price could move higher, but it needs to close and sustain above the 4,000 level to see a substantial increase.
Based on the current consolidation, we observe that the price may have formed a rounded bottom, potentially creating a cup and handle pattern with higher highs (HH) and lower highs (LH). These are positive indicators for a bullish move, but momentum is still lacking. If it is indeed going higher then the 4135 is the immediate target.
If the price breaks below the LH area, it could move lower. The best approach for the upcoming week is to adopt a wait-and-see strategy, looking for confirmation of the next price movement.
FCPO Week 24 2024: Slowly higher.Earlier in the week, prices dipped below the neckline, but they recovered slightly by the week's end, closing just above the neckline. The 4000 price level remains a resistance area. Despite this setback, the bullish outlook is still intact, with prices continuing to consolidate. Next week presents an opportunity to go long, with the target price remaining unchanged from last week.
FCPO Week 23 2024: Bullish?The price broke through the neckline with strong momentum and retraced slightly on Thursday, creating a buying opportunity. It then continued higher on Friday, confirming a rounded bottom pattern. From here, the price is expected to continue rising. A long position targets 4135 initially, with a potential move to 4230 depending on next week's price action.
FCPO WEEK 21 2024 -Neutral for the start of the week.Price has been in consolidation mode for at least 2 weeks. Good trading weeks for range traders but definitely not good for trend traders. Will be looking for further price action early next week to further determine the direction. Price needs to close either above or lower of the resistance or support level. Overall view is still bearish based upon how aggressive the price push lower from the neckline. However a retracement higher towards the neckline is welcome for another meaningful move lower. It will also provide opportunity to go short with a much better pricing. So early next week is definitely a wait and see mode before deciding to take any trade. ✌🏼💰💵
FCPO Week 17 2024 - Bearish?FCPO might have shifted bearish. However for next week, there is a possibility that it might bounce higher. Price is expected to target 4090 area and possibly higher above 4100 area. From there it is expected that price to continue lower depending on the price action next week.
FCPO Week 17 2024 - Going lower?FCPO looks heavy. The drop might not ended yet but there might be a retracement higher. At this current level standing aside might be a good idea. Monday price action might be a good indicator on where price will go this week. Stand aside for now until new signal emerges.
FCPO Week 16 2024 - Further retracement.A further retracement lower is still in play. A reversal on Friday may turn out to be only a manipulation. The move higher might only be to fill up the gap at 4300 area before continuing lower. 4200 is the area where price should be next week. Expecting a consolidation in this area before the next move higher. Overall still bullish until proven otherwise.
Green Bull Flag in FCPO From a technical standpoint, prices have consolidated into a bull flag consolidation pattern since 14 March, breaking out of the flag resistance (orange trend channel) yesterday, albeit with normal volume. This localised breakout coupled with the breakout of the long-term parabolic bowl accumulation pattern at 4,150, a pattern forming since July 2023, signalled a possible continuation of the bullish climb to retest 4350 levels.
Fibonacci retracements can be seen respected at 61%, 50% and 38% respectively. Immediate support is foreseen around the 4,200 levels, a zone created from a combination of both 50% fibo and the high from previous surge – green line support.
Sustained prices above the bull flag pattern for the next two days are likely to drive further upward movement, aiming to breach the 4,350 level and potentially reaching 4,500 levels. This upward momentum may be fueled by short liquidations and breakout buys. Conversely, a drop below the 4,150 level could prompt a retreat towards the crucial support level of 4,000.
Regarding correlated edible oils, technical indicators for CBOT soyoil futures indicate a bullish divergence, with prices rebounding noticeably from recent lows. The trajectory suggests a continuation of the bullish trend following a retracement to the 47-48 cents per pound levels last week.
