Now let’s summarize the idea first:

Cotton W1(Weekly) Chart Analysis – Psychological Level, Bullish Divergence

On the weekly chart, the price which was moving lower reached an important psychological round number 50 level. In addition to this, we had a bullish divergence which has formed between the first low that has formed on 25th August 2019 and the second low that has formed on 29th March 2020 based on the moving averages of the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bullish pressure. The price created a false break of this psychological level, respected it, and is currently moving higher.

Cotton D1(Daily) Chart Analysis – Continuing Bearish Divergence

Looking at the daily chart we could see that the price which is moving higher has created a continuing bearish divergence. This continuing bearish divergence is formed between the first high that has formed on 30th April 2020 and the second high that has formed on 20th April 2020 based on the histogram of the MACD indicator, which we may consider as an evidence of bearish pressure. Based on all this we may now expect short term retraces and then further continuation higher.

Cotton D1(Daily) Chart Current Scenario

Based on the above-mentioned analysis I expected to see retraces and further continuation higher. The price moved perfectly as per my analysis, we got the retrace and then the price moved higher exactly as I expected.

Currently, the price has reached a strong resistance zone formed by the 161.8% fibonacci expansion levels of the first wave at 62.00 and the second wave at 63.14 and the 200 moving averages. Also currently we have bearish divergence between the first high that has formed on 23rd April 2020 and the second high that has formed on 5th June 2020. So if you are involved in the buys then this is a very important place to consider and manage your trade (cash out or partial cash out or trailing protections or partial hedge, etc.. depending on the strategy that you work with).

Note: My long term view still remains bullish here. You can find a detailed explanation regarding this in my Forex Weekly Forecast Video and Forex Weekly Forecast Text Format.
