Analyst Quote
"For the third year in a row, incremental supply (of vegetable oils) will not match incremental demand. We must, therefore, begin to give up too many thoughts of any meaningful decline in vegetable oil prices during 2011."
SOYBEAN OIL (DEC) 11/09/2010Rising stochastics at overbought levels warrant some caution for bulls. A positive signal for trend short-term was given on a close over the 9-bar moving average. The market could take on a defensive posture with the daily closing price reversal down. It is a slightly negative indicator that the close was under the swing pivot. The near-term upside target is at 53.15. The 9-day RSI over 70 indicates the market is approaching overbought levels. The next area of resistance is around 52.49 and 53.15, while 1st support hits today at 51.53 and below there at 51.22.
