CPO Firmer On Lower Productions, Inventories & Higher Exports DataCrude palm oil futures on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives closed mostly higher yesterday in anticipation of a drawdown in palm oil inventories, dealer said.

Hi Najib,
ReplyDeleteZL concur on the powerful bear part but in CPO nothing surprises ZL anymore.
Watch how CPO prices perform today.
Looks like a MARUBOZU is a possibility up till lunchbreak.
ZL is in LONG positions >>> 2501 / 2505 >>> 2503 average.
Very alert status. ZL propose Najib also be cautious albeit LONG or SHORT
Goodluck2u bro
Regards
ZL
