Coffee has just bounced off of strong support this past week and now looks poised to resume the rally we saw in the 2nd half of 2006. On the weekly charts we have seen a number of indicators issue buy signals including ADX as shown on the chart below. You can also see that we bounced just shy of a 62% fibonacci retracement which is one of the best retracement levels within a longer term bull market.
Elliot wavers in particular like to see a 62% retracement on wave 2 like we are seeing on the chart below. Take all these factors and add them up and you have the makings of a bull market and this trade is the lowest risk way we could find to position for this trend.
