ICE canola rising Monday morning

Glacier FarmMedia — ICE canola futures were stronger Monday morning, nearing major chart resistance.

• The move above C$660 per tonne in the March contract last week was supportive from a technical standpoint, with chart-based positioning underpinning values to start the week.
• Gains in Chicago soyoil provided spillover support. However, soybeans were lower while European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil were mixed.
• The Canadian dollar was sharply stronger relative to its United States counterpart, tempering the gains in canola as the firmer currency cuts into crush margins and makes exports less attractive to international buyers.
