Coffee exports fell 2.3% in November 2016 compared to October to 114.7 thousand tonnes. This is below the official forecast of 120 thousand tonnes from the Vietnamese agency General Statistics Office. Will coffee prices advance?<\/p>\n<p>Vietnam produces around 20% of global coffee production and cultivates robusta. Early in December Vietnamese producers forecasted with optimism that coffee exports will amount to 150 thousand tonnes in December. This is below the last year\u2019s level of 152 thousand tonnes. Vietnam Coffee and Cocoa Association expects coffee production to fall 10-20% in 2016\/17 agricultural season. As a result, Vietnamese farmers may decide to sell lower volume of newly harvested beans in January 2017. Coffee prices may also advance on the news from Green Coffee Association that green coffee stockpiles edged lower in US. A couple of days ago Brazilian government approved of robusta imports from Vietnam for the first time in a decade. It is needed for coffee refining plants. Crops may fall in Brazil this year due to drought. Brazil is global leader in coffee production accounting for 34% of the market. It mainly cultivates arabica. Robusta crops are forecasted to be 8.35mln of 60-kg bags in Brazil this year which is below the record level of 13mln bags 2 years ago.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: none;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ifcmarkets.com\/uploads\/images\/16-12-2016.png\" alt=\"Coffee\" width=\"660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"emailSummary\">On the daily chart <b>Coffee: D1<\/b> is in the descending trend.

Having opened the pending order we shall move the stop to the next fractal low following the Parabolic and Bollinger signals. Thus, we are changing the probable profit\/loss ratio to the breakeven point. The most risk-averse traders may switch to the 4-hour chart after the trade and place there a stop-loss moving it in the direction of the trade. If the price meets the stop-loss level at 138.2 without reaching the order at 145.2, we recommend cancelling the position: the market sustains internal changes which were not taken into account.<\/p><div id=\"inves-4236559764\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"emailSummary\" style=\"margin-top: 15px !important;\">Summary of technical analysis<\/h2>\n<table style=\"border: solid 1px black;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Position<\/b><\/td>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">Buy<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Buy stop<\/b><\/td>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">above 145.2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><b>Stop loss<\/b><\/td>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">below 138.2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Market Analysis provided by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ifcmarkets.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">IFCMarkets<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By IFCMarkets Bad weather may harm crops in Vietnam Rainstorms may harm coffee crops in Vietnam and the quality of cocoa beans.
