Good morning, MarketForum
Coffee 'appears' to have put in a weekly cycle low on July expiration day, 7-19-23 at 152.30. This weekly low was 27 weeks after its previous weekly low, which was 1-11-23 at 142.00, 35 weeks from its previous low. UPWARD PROGRESSION.
September coffee, now lead contract, put its low in on Monday 7-17-23 at 155.05. It had two "nice" positive days Thursday and Friday rising to a Friday close of 161.85. There was the possibility of a weekly gap on Monday (early) morning open, but a slightly lower open occurred. Now trading plus $2-3 on the day.
September chart 'appears' to be void of any resistance until a previous low near 174.
2023 lead high is near 207. Five year high is near 260.
TRADE WELL!
Thanks extremely much, tjc!
I'm tied up with several projects right now and will try to follow up.
There's some very chilly air that heads into Brazil this weekend but not cold enough for a coffee frost.
We would need a 1028 surface pressure contour below in coffee-land.

The upper level flow is just not amplified enough later this week with the wave approaching below:

tjc,
This wasn't to quash your trade idea. Coffee frosts are 1 every 20 year events and coffee makes some sort of a bottom a few times every year without the help of weather.
Seasonally, since they've been finishing up with harvest, this is when harvest pressure has peaked and temporary lows are often put in.
Here's MUCH more from a thread 3 years ago:

CT has been performing VERY NICELY.
Coffee once again tested its recent basing action. Positive close. Appears ready to advance.
Thanks, tjc!
