Cocoa is about to make a new all-time high for the fourth time this year. In 2023, it closed with a massive 62% gain. However, this year, it has almost doubled in price since 1st January and we are still in March. It’s one of the best-performing financial instruments in the last 1 year. It broke above $8,000 early in the week and now could be heading to $9,000 after it completely recovers from the 18-19 March minor dip. But how far further upside could it go? Will there be a big pullback soon? How can traders take advantage of this big bullish trend? This technical analysis provides clues from the Elliott wave theory. 

In the long term, the bullish trend didn’t start in 2023. It started properly in 2001 when the commodity barely traded at $709. Before the bullish trend was a multi-year decline. We will dwell more on when the trend started. In the last 22-23 years of this trend, the commodity only had major pullbacks in 2003 extended to 2004/05 before the trend continued for the next four years. Another pullback started in 2011 and lasted till 2017 before the currency phase of the bullish trend. From 2017, by projection, Cocoa could hit the 100% extension ($9,500) of the rally between 2001-to-2011 from the end of the pullback in 2017. 

Cocoa Daily Chart Analysis:

On the daily chart, an Elliott wave analysis of the trend from September 2022 suggests we are in the last wave i.e. wave 5 of (C). Meanwhile, the sub-wave ‘v’ (in blue) of 5 is not yet completed and could hit $9,500. This is going to be the next target for Cocoa in both the medium and short term.
