Coffee futures have seen a nice rally higher. And although the wave formation is bullish, the rally may be ready for a pullback.
A couple weeks back I wrote about why coffee futures are setting up for a nice rally. Here’s an excerpt:
Based on the big gap up last week and the fact that a “lot” of math and geometry are pointing to the recent lows as important, it’s fair to assume that coffee is off on a move higher.
Looking at the chart below, we can see a very symmetrical and balanced form/proportion move from the lows in and around 114.57. I’m going to label the current price action as the end of a 5 wave movement so I would expect weakness ahead for coffee prices.
Since this is the first 5 wave move up, the pullback could be substantial but in no case should Coffee futures go below 114.57. If we get a nice pattern to BUY then coffee futures should really rip higher in a 3rd wave and start a much longer, more sustained rally leg.
Again, the key is holding above 114.57 on the pullback. click chart to enlarge
