…will hope to re-enter my long during the US session in the .635-.64 range. Arabica Coffee (ICE KC Sep14) attempted to retest the 50% retrace (of the July rally) support as predicted over the last few days, but did not quite get there. It broke beneath the 38.2% retrace support, but bounced right back up, rallying steadily on a break above the symmetrical triangle resistance formed over the prior three or so trading days. Appearing a bit overextend…

Arabica Coffee (KC) Leads Commodity Bounce

ZC (Wkly/Dly/4hr/Hrly/30min/5min) Charts

Arabica Coffee (ICE KC Sep14) was a standout performer Friday, closing almost 5% higher. Although the daily chart now looks bullish, caution is in order after Friday’s strong spike higher, together with the still slightly bearish weekly chart. I am expecting a strong rally from Corn (CME ZC Sep14), Wheat (CME ZW Sep14) and VIX (CFE VX Aug/Sep14) this week as well, given their oversold daily and weekly charts now. Natural Gas (CME NG Aug/Sep14) wi…

KC (Wkly/Dly/4hr/Hrly/30min/5min) Charts

After a strong performance of over 4% in gains yesterday, Arabica Coffee (ICE KC Sep14) has reclaimed the 38.2% retrace level of the 2014 Jan-Apr rally. KC will likely experience a bit of profit taking today, but has now with an increasingly bullish weekly chart, laid a strong foundation for gains in the weeks ahead. The VIX (CFE VX Aug/Sep14) was under a bit of pressure yesterday reflecting the expected modest rise in the S&P500 (CME ES Sep14)….

Arabica Coffee (KC) Convincingly Resuming Uptrend

Corn (Wkly/Dly/4hr/Hrly/30min/5min) Charts

After strongly bearish Thursday and Friday action on Arabica Coffee (ICE KC Sep14), where it had almost reached the 61.8% retrace (of the July 2nd half rally), KC powered ahead over 4% yesterday. The gains reversed all of Friday and much of Thursday’s downward slide, and positions it to resuming the longer term rally that began in the 2nd half of July. Keeping in mind that the daily chart still looks mixed, and given yesterday’s strong upside mom…

Arabica Coffee (KC) Completes Correction Since Mid October

Arabica Coffee (Wkly/Dly/4hr/Hrly) Charts

Arabica Coffee (ICE KC Mar15) Weekly/Daily/4hr/Hourly KC convincingly broke out of its bottoming phase yesterday adding more than 2% on the day. Admittedly, I was about a week early in expecting the completion of this bottoming. KC appeared earlier this week to have broken beneath the ascending triangle support line as seen in the weekly chart, but with yesterday’s rally and the weekly RSI and Stochastics finally trying to turn up, KC should be o…

Silver (Wkly/Dly/4hr/Hrly/30min/5min) Charts

Arabica Coffee (ICE KC Dec14) Weekly/Daily/4hr/Hourly/30min/5min Yesterday’s standout performance from KC should lay to rest any doubt that the uptrend is continuing. The weekly and daily RSI, Stochastics and MACD all point higher. As those who’ve followed my thoughts on KC will know, the missing ingredient late last week to Monday to KC rallying was the daily MACD being pointed slightly down. In the chart below, you can see how new support and r…
