SINGAPORE: Signals are mixed for New York May cocoa, following its failure to break a resistance at $2,447 per tonne.
The resistance is identified as the 76.4 percent projection level of a wave C from $2,113. At its full capacity, this wave could travel to $2,550. The deep fall on Thursday, however, makes this target doubtful.
The wave C may also end about $2,447. A peak seems to be developing below this level. The exact pattern of this peak remains unknown. The pattern may turn out to be a head-and-shoulders, which is only partially complete. Cocoa may stabilize around $2,383 and then approach $2,447, to complete the right shoulder.
A break below $2,383 could eliminate the possibility of this head-and-shoulders, and a bearish target at $2,332 will be established.
Note: Cocoa report is published twice a week, Wednesday and Friday.
