Highlights

  • KC/USX is trading below short-, medium-, and long-term moving averages, indicating continued selling pressure across all timeframes.
  • Bearish momentum is confirmed by multiple indicators, with most oscillators showing seller dominance and prices closing near session lows after a 2.73% drop.
  • Expected trading range for the next 2 to 3 days is USX295.53 to USX302.57, with further downside likely if support at USX295.53 fails.

Bearish momentum persists as resistance limits recovery

On the H1 timeframe, KC/USX trades below MA-20 at USX309.19 and MA-50 at USX311.26, while on the daily chart it is also below the MA-200 at USX299. A key resistance is identified at the Ichimoku Kijun level of USX306.68. Momentum indicators reflect pronounced bearish alignment: MACD, ADX, and Awesome Oscillator all point to sustained negative momentum. RSI stands at 39 (Sell), and both CCI and Bull/Bear Power are in oversold territory, highlighting heavy seller dominance, with Stochastic RSI registering a neutral reading.

Downside breakout risk elevated as consolidation zone narrows

Looking ahead to the next 2–3 days, the expected price range is between USX295.53 and USX302.57. The projected probability of an upward breakout is very low, while downside continuation below USX295.53 support is highly likely. The baseline expectation is consolidation within the current corridor, with a bullish reversal scenario requiring a clear move above USX306.68.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that Coffee futures continue to trade under major moving averages and show clear signs of bearish momentum. He sees little evidence of positive catalysts or news to reverse the negative tone. Momentum indicators are heavily biased toward further downside, with low chances of breakout. "Unless KC reclaims USX306.68 with conviction, sellers remain firmly in control and downside risks dominate near-term trading."

Earlier, analysts noted that coffee futures were consolidating within a volatile band as shifting supply chain strategies and regulatory changes contributed to uncertainty. The current breakdown and bearish momentum confirm a weakening technical outlook, with further downside risk should prices decisively breach support at USX295.53 in the days ahead.
