SINGAPORE: Palm oil may break a resistance at 3,390 ringgit per tonne and rise into the 3,436-3,493 ringgit range. The current rise closely observes a set of retracement on the fall from 3,586 ringgit. It could be classified as a bounce against this fall.
However, a channel suggests a bigger upside, as the channel line points at a target around 3,650 ringgit.
Whether this aggressive target could be fulfilled will largely depend on the contract’s performance around 3,493 ringgit.
A break above this level will make the target available, while a failure may be followed by a resumption of the downtrend.
