SINGAPORE: Palm oil may bounce more towards 3,980 ringgit, as it has broken a resistance at 3,888 ringgit per tonne. The next resistance is at 3,980 ringgit, a break above which could lead to a gain to 4,093 ringgit.
The nature of the current rise remains a bit unclear. It is tentatively classified as the second bounce triggered by the support of 3,721 ringgit.
This bounce is expected to be much weaker than the first one from the Dec. 12, 2022 low of 3,721 ringgit.
As far as the bounce target is concerned, it has to be a step-by-step calculation.
