Declining Palm Oil Prices : CSE - WATA/AGAL/NAMU/etcFundamentals
Malaysian palm oil futures have entered a corrective phase, plunging to a four-week low with an 8% decline over the period. This price softening is primarily attributed to:
• Demand contraction in key export markets
• Appreciation of the Malaysian ringgit, reducing competitiveness
CSE Companies with exposure to palm oil benefited from favorable pricing over the previous three months, with notable rallies.
Strategy
The recent price correction is unlikely to impact current quarter earnings.
However, next quarter margins may compress if the downtrend persists
Given the current trajectory of international prices, think a prudent profit-booking approach is more appropriate.
Re-entry opportunities may arise post-stabilization, levels to watch are marked in the chart.

Change in count for FCPOWith the overlap in wave i at 3998, the previous count is negated and thus present an alternate count for wave (b) preceding an expected 5 wave formation of wave (c)to the upside for a major wave B (in red).
Sentiment remains weak but the presence of a divergence between price and MACD is indicative of a potential bottoming and the current pattern of a 5 wave down should stir some interest.
25/11/25 More FT Selling, or Stall?
Monday’s candlestick (Nov 24) was a follow-through small bear bar closing near its low with a prominent tail above.
In our previous report, we said traders would watch if the bears could create more follow-through selling, or if the market would trade slightly lower, but close with a long tail below candlesticks, which could indicate some profit-taking activity.
The market attempted to trade higher in the first half of the day but reversed, closing lower.
The bulls hope the current decline will form a major higher low.
They hope the recent tight trading range will be the final flag of the move and want the market to reverse back into the tight trading range.
They must produce strong consecutive bull bars to show they are clearly in control.
The bears’ measured-move target, based on the height of the prior trading range, projects toward the 4000–3950 area.
The selloff formed a tight bear channel, indicating strong bearish sentiment and persistent selling pressure.
They want a second leg sideways to down. The move is now underway.
They need to continue creating follow-through selling to reach the measured move targets.

FCPO Week 48 205: Another consolidation mode?Still in bearish mode but the move lower is losing a little bit of momentum even though Friday push lower look impressive. Look at 4H and you will see a bullish divergence that might indicate that price will retrace in a bearish macro trend. Another consolidation period is also possible. So bearish on higher timeframe but bearish in 4H is losing momentum and retracement or consolidation is a possibility.
20/11/25 PB to 20-Day EMA, Retest Low
Wednesday’s candlestick (Nov 19) was a bull bar closing in its lower half with a long tail above.

The selloff, however, is slightly climactic and has a parabolic wedge shape. The market may need to form a minor pullback before resuming its decline.

For now, odds still slightly favor the first pullback being minor, followed by a retest of the Nov 18 low, even if it only forms a higher low. This remains true.

Or will the market trade slightly lower, but close with a long tail below?
