TECHNICAL COMMENTARY

If prices stays above the support of 6000 levels, trend is likely to be firm. Moreover any rise above 6520 could see upside moves towards 6900/7120 levels. Moreover, weekly RSI (14) is treading higher supporting the view. However, intermittent profit booking cannot be ruled out before resuming next wave of upside moves and any fall below 6000 could negate the current upside momentum.

FUNDAMENTAL COMMENTARY

The Jan NCDEX Soybean prices fell due to decline in domestic demand in the spot market. Moreover, fears over new variant of COVID-19 virus triggered selloffs in the entire oilseed segment in the previous week. Expectation of pick up in demand for soybean from poultry industry limited major fall. However, rise in acreage of oil seed, especially RMseed and fall in demand for edible oils as festival demand and rise in supply in to the markets are the key factors to watch in. In the international front, U.S CBOT soybean prices traded higher on shortage of global production of soybean. The decline is mainly due to fall in production in China due to lower area. Moreover, shortage of canola crop due to drought in Canada supported the prices of soybean. Lower global ending stocks also supporting the prices in the near term.
