COCOA : A CORRECTION IS DUE

- The market has been trading above a bullish trendline since mid-March ; The mid-term trend was then bullish

- More recently, the increased appetite for the US Dollar has started to put pressure on a wide range of commodities, including Cocoa.
Since the impact on 11,212, the control of the market has been taken over by sellers, leading prices back to their first support level around the 10,000 mark.

This pull-back following a bearish divergence with the RSI has driven the market to invalidate its mid-term bullish trend, opening the doors to a correction.
The RSI has also confirmed the bearish break-out, but remains in buying zone, slightly over the 50% level.

- The bullish trend has clearly been invalidated.
However, it is still hard to say whether the market consolidate laterally or register a deeper correction at this point.
Even if the 10,000 stays as the immediate support level for the market, 9,332 (38.2% Fibonacci + last market bottom) should be seen as a crucial zone.
If a break-out happens there, we could expect a deeper bearish movement towards 8,750 and 8,170 by extension.
