March coffee closed sharply lower on Wednesday breaking out to the downside of the trading range of the past two-weeks. The low-range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening on Thursday. Stochastics and the RSI are turning neutral to bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near-term. Closes below last-Thursday's low crossing at 12.02 would confirm that a short-term top has been posted while opening the door for a possible test of January's low crossing at 11.88. If March renews the rally off January's low, January's high crossing at 13.18 is the next upside target.

March cocoa closed sharply higher on Wednesday as it renewed the rally off December's low. The high-range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Thursday. Stochastics and the RSI are neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. Today's close above the January 4th high crossing at 26.61 confirms that a short-term low has been posted. If March extends today's rally, November's high crossing at 28.21 is the next upside target. Closes below the 20-day moving average crossing at 24.41 would signal that a short-term top has been posted.

March sugar closed higher on Wednesday as it renewed the rally off last-April's low. The mid-range close set the stage for a steady to higher opening on Thursday. Stochastics and the RSI are diverging but remain neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near-term. If March extends the rally off December's low, weekly resistance crossing at 17.23 is the next upside target.

March cotton posted an inside day with a sharply lower close on Wednesday as it consolidated some of this year's rally. The low-range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening on Thursday.

If March extends the rally off April's low, the July-2018 high on the weekly continuation chart crossing at 89.98 is the next upside target.

GRAINS

U.S. grain futures are mixed in early U.S. pre-market trading, following solid losses on Wednesday. Profit taking was the feature Wednesday. The bulls still have the firm overall near-term technical advantage. However, how the markets close out the week on Friday will be critical for near-term price direction. Closing levels Friday that are at or near the weekly lows would be a clue that near-term market tops are in place. Still, overall supply and demand fundamentals are bullish for the grains. The key question for traders is, has all the bullish news been factored into futures prices. Remember that a strong bull market needs to be fed fresh, bullish fundamental news on a regular basis.
