Kakao Technische Analyse - Kakao Handel: 2019-05-22

There is little rainfall in West Africa

There is a lack of rain in West Africa and especially in Côte d'Ivoire. Will the cocoa quotations continue increasing ?

On the daily timeframe Cocoa: D1 approached the upper boundary of the long-term neutral trend. Before opening a buy position, it must be pierced to the top. Various technical analysis indicators have generated upside signals. Further growth of quotations is possible in case of bad weather and a reduction in world yield.

• The Parabolic indicator demonstrates signal to increase.
• The Bolinger bands narrowed, indicating volatility decrease. Both lines of Bollinger have a slope up
• The RSI indicator is above the 50 mark. It has formed a divergence to the rise.
• The MACD indicator shows an uptrend signal.

The bullish momentum may develop if Cocoa exceeds the resistance line of the long-term neutral trend: 2450. This level can be used as an entry point. The initial stop loss may be placed below the last lower fractal, the Parabolic signal, the 200-day moving average line and the lower Bollinger line: 2222. After opening the pending order, we shall move the stop to the next fractal low following the Bollinger and Parabolic signals to the next fractal minimum. Thus, we are changing the potential profit/loss to the breakeven point. More risk-averse traders may switch to the 4-hour chart after the trade and place there a stop loss moving it in the direction of the trade. If the price meets the stop level (2222) without reaching the order (2450), we recommend to close the position: the market sustains internal changes that were not taken into account.
