Trading Tips for the Day - 22 May 2015

FKLI wil likely open higher for today, for the first trade, one can attempt to Long 1-3 points below the opening price.  Try get 5-7 points profit and put a stop 5 points away from your entry point.  Close your position by the end of the day.

As for FCPO,  good support in the afternoon closed market higher yesterday. Buying was led by short covering and technical correction from the oversold situation indicated in the stochastic. Steady CBT soyoil, China Dalian futures and strong gains in crude mineral oil also encouraged support. Market was easier in the morning on continuing bearish sentiment and lack of fresh factors. Prices were 3 higher to 8 lower in the morning and rebounded to 23 higher in the afternoon.

Unless there are new factors, the very good May exports todate may see some recovery from declines the past few days. Talks of better demand for the upcoming festive Ramadan may also underpin sentiment. However, higher production in the coming months and big soyabean supplies remain of concern. Technical view - prices correcting from the oversold situation in the stochastic. Indicators remain slightly negative.
