FCPO May month contract dropped 70 points or 1.54% to closed lower at 4484. Malaysian crude palm oil futures ended lower on Monday, pressured by declines in rival oils and weaker palm oil exports in February.

Overnight soybean oil for the May contract dropped 0.63 to closed lower at 43.49. Dalian’s active palm oil contract dropped 44 points to close lower at 9036 on previous night session.

The actively traded FCPO contract has broken below the support level of a minor sideways consolidation at 4480–4485, which now acts as a resistance zone. The price is attempting to form a minor downward channel on the hourly chart, with a sell-on-rebound strategy as the primary approach for the upcoming session. However, this appears to be a technical correction, with potential downside extending to 4435–4430 if the 4455–4460 level is breached. The 4435–4430 zone serves as a critical support level for the continuation of the upside. If it holds, this area could present a buying opportunity; if it fails, stronger selling pressure is likely to emerge. Beware of any potential sentiment changes. The immediate support and resistance levels are pinpointed at 4458 and 4480, respectively.
