FURTHER surge in the Ringgit exchange rates is depressing optimism in the CPO futures, keeping movement range bound for most part of the day with thin activity. The October delivery contract slipped RM26 to end at RM2,480/MT.

The actively-traded October delivery contract dip to retest the staunch support at RM2,478/MT in the early session, fuelled by weakness in the aftee-hours Soyoil futures. However, short-term oversold technical conditions have temporarily prevented further price slippage below the RM2,480/MT support level in the late session, inspiring a mild price recovery. The market sentiment locked in a cautious mode ahead of the Wednesday export figures, optimistic gains fom here will likely be limited by the overhead resistance level at RM2,493/97/MT and the staunch RM2,500/MT resistance. The CPO futures needs a much stronger fundamental reasons to power above the key RM2,500/MT psychological level for now.
