COCOA remains in a strong downtrend and the technical outlook is bearish. It bounced slightly last week, but the topside was capped at the 21 DMA. Cocoa's failure to sustain momentum above the $2000 level suggests further losses lie ahead. Another test of the recent low at $1883 seems likely.

COFFEE had a fake breakout above the trendline from the November high and is approaching the $140 level. A test of the key support level at $132 seems likely in the near-term. This level is an important one, as a break below would pave the way for a test of the 2016 low at $110.

The uptrend in COPPER remains intact. However, volatility has decreased significantly since the beginning of 2017, and there has been a lack of momentum. Nevertheless, techs point to further gains from here. Immediate resistance is seen at $2.83, followed by the significant resistance area between $2.95 and $3.00. Important support lies in the area between $2.25 and $2.35, but it seems unlikely at this point that we will see a test of it soon.

NAT GAS is approaching a significant support level at $2.50 and traders should keep an eye on the price action around it. Should it break below it, an extension of the long-term downtrend seems highly likely, with the next strong support level then at $1.95.

SOYBEAN is consolidating within a triangle pattern, and the outlook is mixed. The key levels to watch here are support around $990 and resistance near $1080.

The outlook for WTI is from a technical perspective still positive, although the lack of volatility has been a tad frustrating for oil traders recently. The next major obstacle lies at $55.00-20. An extension of the rally towards $60 seems likely should WTI clear that one convincingly.

GOLD broke above the $1245 level recently, and the next major resistance now lies at $1292, followed by $1337. Momentum remains strong, and further gains seem likely. Expect strong support at $1245 and the area around $1220, as well as the 21 DMA.
