​​​WTI bounces off support

​ ​The swift descent in front month WTI futures from Monday’s 78.87 high on demand concerns has taken it to Monday’s low at 71.45 where it bounced off its December-to-February uptrend line to the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at 7,348 around which it has been trading since. ​A rise above Tuesday’s 73.84 high may lead to the 5 January high at 74.26 being reached ahead of the 75.27 to 75.45 12 and 22 January highs. ​Minor support below the 22 January low at 72.57 sits at Tuesday’s 72.43 low.

​Chicago Wheat prices remain under pressure ​

Chicago wheat front month futures prices managed to find support around 593 at the end of January which remains in sight while these stay below the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at 608.30. Further down the November-to-February uptrend line at 590.00 may also act as support ahead of the 581 mid-January trough. ​Overall bearish pressure should be maintained while last week’s high at 616 isn’t overcome.

​Arabica coffee on track for third day of falling prices

​Front month Arabica coffee futures seem to have topped out at 194.06 last week and have since slid to the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at 183.73 which so far acts as support, together with the 25 January low at 182.26. Below these levels the October-to-February uptrend line can be spotted at 179.80. ​Minor resistance above Wednesday’s 186.57 intraday high sits at Friday’s 188.25 low.
