​​​Silver sees choppy trading around recent highs

​The surge in spot silver prices suffered a check yesterday, as the price reversed course, but buyers have jumped in this morning.

​While still overextended in the short-term, the overall uptrend is intact. Some short-term weakness may take the price back towards the $32.00 zone.

​Brent makes gains

Brent crude oil prices shook off some weakness yesterday and finished the session off the lows.

​Further gains this morning continue to bolster the view that another higher low has been established. Additional upside targets the $78.00 area, and then on to the highs of early October. A close back below $74.00 might negate this and suggest a retest of last week’s lows.

​NY cocoa continues to fall

​The latest leg lower in New York cocoa's downtrend from April’s highs has taken it towards the early October lows.

​Recoveries in September and October failed to restore the uptrend, and the 7570 area provided resistance, the latter case also coinciding with trendline resistance from the April highs.

​October’s low at 6360 is now firmly in sight, and a close below this reinforces the bearish view.
