​​​Brent crude oil price rejected by resistance

​Brent crude oil front month futures prices are seen coming off this week’s 80.47 one-month high as expectations for higher borrowing costs for longer weigh on the demand outlook.

​The 200-day simple moving average (SMA) at 79.62 should act as resistance ahead of the 80.11 to 80.48 resistance zone which goes back to the early March high.

​Slips may take the Brent crude oil price back down towards the $78.00 mark.

​While recent lows at 76.75 to 76.11 hold, further sideways trading will remain in play.

​Gold price slips to three-week low

​The spot gold price puts pressure on last week’s low at $2,326 per troy ounce below which meanders the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at $2,311. If also fallen through, the early May trough at $2,278 will be back on the cards.

​Short-term downside pressure should retain the upper hand while this week’s high at $2,364 isn’t overcome.

​Orange juice futures consolidate below record high

​Front month orange juice futures’ fifteen straight day rally to 482.54 as crop disease and hurricanes hit supply is taking a breather below its record high. Were it to be exceeded, the 500.00 mark would be back in the picture.

​Potential slips may find support around the 22 May 462.18 high.
