The 2-year yield is the first place I’m starting, and this, of course, has been a major driver of what happens on a day-to-day basis recently, as yields being higher over time has worked against certain risk appetite-based products. Furthermore, we also have to keep in mind that it has a major influence on what’s going on with the U.S. dollar. So far, it has been pretty quiet on Tuesday.
Be aware that the boundary lines of the formation provide only a rough estimate of potential resistance because price movements within the pattern can be irregular. Given the current rising upper boundary, silver could test that boundary near the falling trendline that has defined dynamic resistance during the decline of more than two months. The 50-day moving average near $64.32 can be used as a rough proxy for that trendline.
The weekly chart offers another perspective on the potential for a reversal. Last week, a doji hammer candlestick pattern formed, with a bullish reversal signal requiring an upside breakout above $62.04. That would signal a bullish reversal on the larger weekly timeframe.
Despite the pair’s mixed sideways trading, with the price currently holding near 209.15, this does not affect the previously suggested bullish corrective trajectory, supported by the continued role of 208.10 as additional support. We will therefore continue to look for the price to gain further positive momentum, increasing the chances of reaching the corrective targets currently located near 210.40, followed by the key resistance barrier at 211.25.
However, if the price comes under strong bearish pressure and falls below 208.10, this would trigger a renewed bearish move, exposing the pair to further losses, initially toward 207.40 and 206.85.
The expected trading range for today is between 208.70 and 210.40
Trend forecast: Bullish
The coffee market on October 13, 2026, showed signs of recovery in the key growing regions of the Central Highlands. The current purchase price for bulk green coffee beans ranges from 92,500–93,200 VND/kg, a slight increase compared to the previous update. Notably, within Lam Dong province itself, the price difference between the two traditional production areas is as much as 700 VND/kg.
Domestic price increases occurred as international coffee markets rebounded across the board. London Robusta reached $3,478 per ton for the near-term contract, while New York Arabica surpassed 290 US cents per pound, drawing further attention to the outlook for coffee prices in the coming days.
Domestic coffee prices continued to rise on October 13th in purchasing areas. The highest price of 93,200 VND/kg was recorded in Dak Lak , Gia Lai, and the former Dak Nong area of Lam Dong province. The traditional Lam Dong region had lower prices, at 92,500 VND/kg.
In Dak Lak province , the price of coffee today is being purchased at 93,200 VND/kg, an increase of 200 VND/kg. This is one of the areas with the highest prices in the survey, indicating an improvement in the market compared to the previous level of 93,000 VND/kg.
In Gia Lai province , coffee prices also increased by 200 VND/kg, reaching 93,200 VND/kg. The purchase price in Gia Lai’s traditional coffee-growing areas is now comparable to Dak Lak, placing it among the leading prices in the Central Highlands.
In Lam Dong province , the former Lam Dong area recorded an increase of 300 VND/kg, bringing the purchase price to 92,500 VND/kg. Despite having the highest increase in the surveyed area, this region is still about 700 VND/kg lower than the other areas.
In the former Dak Nong area, now part of Lam Dong province , the price of coffee reached 93,200 VND/kg, an increase of 200 VND/kg. This price is higher than in the former Lam Dong region, even though both are now part of the same province after administrative reorganization.
| Province/region for procurement | Price (VND/kg) | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Dak Lak | 93,200 | +200 |
| Gia Lai | 93,200 | +200 |
| Lam Dong (formerly Lam Dong area) | 92,500 | +300 |
| Lam Dong (formerly Dak Nong area) | 93,200 | +200 |
Unit: VND/kg of bulk green coffee beans. Prices may vary depending on bean quality, moisture content, and purchasing location.
Thus, coffee prices in the Central Highlands are showing a slight recovery after a period of volatility in early October. However, the increase is only 200-300 VND/kg, which has not yet created a significant change in the overall purchasing price.
The price difference between regions continues to be a noteworthy point. Within Lam Dong province, the former Dak Nong area is currently at 93,200 VND/kg, while the former Lam Dong area is at 92,500 VND/kg. This difference may be related to product quality, procurement location, transportation costs, and the specific needs of each business.
Besides green coffee beans in bulk, the roasted and ground coffee market has a higher price level due to processing costs, weight loss after roasting, sorting, and packaging.
According to the updated reference price list on October 12, 2026, Robusta S18 Clean is priced at 163,000 VND/kg, high-quality Robusta CLC at 175,700 VND/kg, and Robusta Honey at 228,600 VND/kg.
In the Arabica group, the reference price for Arabica Clean is 229,600 VND/kg, while high-quality Arabica (CLC) reaches 289,500 VND/kg.
| Product | Reference price (VND/kg) |
|---|---|
| Robusta S18 Clean | 163,000 |
| High-quality Robusta CLC | 175,700 |
| Culi S18 Clean | 174,200 |
| Robusta Honey | 228,600 |
| Arabica Clean | 229,600 |
| High-quality Arabica CLC | 289,500 |
This price list for roasted and ground coffee is for reference only, as of October 12, 2026. It does not reflect the bulk green coffee bean purchase price as of October 13. Actual selling prices may vary depending on the supplier, quality, and product specifications.
On the international market, world coffee prices recorded a recovery session for both main product lines. Robusta on the London exchange increased across all surveyed maturities, while Arabica on the New York exchange saw a stronger percentage increase.
According to the price list updated on October 13th, the Robusta contract for November 2026 delivery reached $3,478 per ton, an increase of $8 per ton, equivalent to 0.23%, compared to the previous session.
The January 2027 contract rose $9/tonne to $3,463/tonne. The March 2027 contract reached $3,437/tonne, up $15/tonne.
Notably, longer-term contracts also saw price increases. The July 2027 contract rose by $26/tonne, the strongest absolute increase among the five contracts surveyed.
| Term | Price (USD/ton) | Change |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | 3,478 | +8 |
| 01/2027 | 3,463 | +9 |
| 03/2027 | 3,437 | +15 |
| 05/2027 | 3,422 | +20 |
| 07/2027 | 3,409 | +26 |
The simultaneous increase across all maturities indicates improved buying pressure in the most recent session. However, near-term contract prices remain higher than far-term contracts, reflecting differences in supply and demand and price expectations at each delivery time.
On the New York exchange, Arabica saw a more significant increase than Robusta. The December 2026 contract rose 3.65 US cents/pound, or 1.27%, to 290.60 US cents/pound.
The March 2027 contract rose 3.70 US cents/pound to 283.50 US cents/pound. Contracts for May, July, and September 2027 also increased by 3.40–3.50 US cents/pound.
| Term | Price (US cents/pound) | Change |
|---|---|---|
| December 2026 | 290.60 | +3.65 |
| 03/2027 | 283.50 | +3.70 |
| 05/2027 | 280.00 | +3.45 |
| 07/2027 | 277.55 | +3.40 |
| 09/2027 | 275.35 | +3.50 |
Arabica prices rose by over 1% across all contract periods, outpacing Robusta’s increase in the same update. This development reflects market interest in the outlook for Arabica supply from major producing countries.
According to market data, Colombian coffee production for the 2025–2026 crop year is projected to decrease by approximately 15% compared to the previous year, to 12.65 million bags. Exports are also expected to fall by 12%, to 11.78 million bags.
Conversely, Brazil continues to be a factor that could limit the recovery. The country’s green coffee bean exports in September increased by 3.2% year-on-year, to approximately 3.58 million bags.
Supplies from Brazil help alleviate shortages in the international market, but also make it difficult for coffee prices to maintain their strong upward trend unless demand improves correspondingly.
Weather conditions are also being closely monitored. Concerns about the development of El Niño could affect production prospects in some coffee-growing regions. However, the extent of the impact will depend on temperature changes, rainfall, and the plant’s growth stage.
In Vietnam, the market is focusing its attention on the 2026–2027 coffee crop year. New supply, harvesting progress, and purchasing demand from export companies will play a significant role in determining bulk green coffee prices in the coming weeks.
Domestic coffee prices are receiving support from the recovery of both Robusta and Arabica on the international market. However, the current increase in the Central Highlands is still relatively small, not enough to confirm a sustained upward trend.
In the short term, if London Robusta prices continue to improve and demand from export businesses increases, domestic coffee prices could continue to be supported.
Conversely, supply from the new harvest could put pressure on the market if the amount of goods brought to market increases faster than demand. Developments in Brazilian exports, Colombian production, and weather changes in major growing regions could also cause market volatility.
For coffee growers in Lam Dong, Dak Lak, and Gia Lai provinces, the purchase price at local dealers remains crucial information to monitor directly, as fluctuations in international futures prices are not always immediately reflected in domestic transactions.
Overall, coffee prices in the Central Highlands today, October 13, 2026 , have risen to 92,500–93,200 VND/kg, while the global market has recovered across the board. The developments in subsequent sessions will depend on the speed of bringing new crop goods to market and the ability to maintain buying pressure on the London and New York exchanges.
The pair confirmed its continued surrender to the bearish scenario, amid several negative factors, including the alignment of the main indicators in signaling negative momentum, along with repeated stability below the initial resistance barrier at 179.45. The price is currently posting further losses, trading near 176.80 and approaching the first target anticipated in the previous report.
Continued bearish pressure would increase the chances of a renewed downward move in the near term, with the price likely to test 175.75. A break below this level would pave the way toward the next main target at 174.95.
The expected trading range for today is between 175 and 177.40
Trend forecast: Bearish
Welcome, my fellow traders! I have prepared a price forecast for US Crude, XAUUSD, and EURUSD using a combination of the margin zones method and technical analysis. Based on the market analysis, I have identified entry signals for intraday traders.
Gold is trading in a short-term downtrend.
The article covers the following subjects:
Oil is trading within a short-term downtrend. The price is testing resistance A at 91.18–90.73. Currently, sellers are holding this zone. Therefore, one may consider short trades, with targets at 88.75 and 86.30.
If the price breaks above resistance A, the upward correction will continue toward resistance B at 93.61–92.95. Short trades can be considered near this zone.
Sell/hold short trades opened near resistance A at 91.18–90.73. TakeProfit: 88.75, 86.30. StopLoss: 92.24.
Gold is trading within a short-term downtrend. Today, the price attempted to test the resistance at 4,235–4,220 but failed to reach it. Once the asset tests this zone and a sell signal appears, consider short trades, with the first target at 4,150 and the second target near 4,066.
If the gold price exceeds the 4,235 level, the short-term trend may turn upward.
Sell near resistance B at 4,235–4,220. TakeProfit: 4,150, 4,066. StopLoss: 4,262.
The short-term downtrend remains intact. The euro is currently trading in a correction phase. You can hold the short positions opened last week at resistance A at 1.1253–1.1245. The price has already hit the first sell target near 1.1207. The next target is the October 5 low of 1.1161.
If the euro price settles above resistance A, the upward correction will continue toward resistance B at 1.1299–1.1287.
Hold part of short trades opened near resistance A at 1.1253–1.1245. TakeProfit: 1.1161. StopLoss: at breakeven.

EUR/USD is trading at 1.1181 on the 2-hour chart after bouncing off 1.1161 support. Currently, the price is near the 1.12-area and pressing against a descending trendline, with both moving averages above it, suggesting the bearish trend is likely to continue.
The first resistance I am looking at is at 1.1218, above which we would see 1.1275 and 1.1315. As for support, we have 1.1180-1.1161, and below that we have 1.1128 and 1.1092.
RSI is neutral and in the middle, suggesting that the pair may consolidate rather than trend strongly in either direction. Until it breaks above 1.1218, I’ll maintain a bearish bias. A break below 1.1161 would increase the likelihood of a move toward 1.1128.
The 2-hour chart for Brent crude shows a price of around $105.50. Price has maintained its more recent higher lows sequence.
Also notable is the fact that price is comfortably above both moving averages as well as the rising support trendline. The recent dip from the $107 area has not altered the bigger bullish scenario.
The first target I am watching is $107.22. A break above that level would expose $109.90 and then $112.68. Support is situated at $102.30, $99.62 and $96.87.
RSI is above the 50 line. I am bullish while $102.30 and the rising trendline are holding. A close above $107.22 would be more bullish for the $109.90 area, and a close below $102.30 would be more bearish.

STORY LINK Pound Sterling Price News and Forecast: GBP/USD Slips on UK Fiscal Concerns
The Pound US Dollar (GBP/USD) exchange rate fluctuated on Monday, as expectations of a Bank of England (BoE) interest rate hike next month offered some support to Sterling, while concerns surrounding the UK’s upcoming Autumn Budget kept the pairing unsettled.
At the time of writing, GBP/USD was trading at $1.3230, having wavered throughout the session.
The Pound (GBP) drew some support on Monday as rising inflationary pressures strengthened expectations that the Bank of England could raise interest rates next month.
According to accountancy and advisory firm BDO, businesses are facing their most acute inflationary pressures since June 2023, with higher energy and raw material costs driving the increase.
However, concerns over the UK’s public finances capped Sterling’s support, after the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) warned that rising inflation had helped create a £35bn funding shortfall ahead of the Autumn Budget.
The US Dollar (USD) initially came under pressure on Monday as investors showed a greater appetite for risk, but the ‘Greenback’ later regained some support.
Sentiment deteriorated following reports that Russia had attacked Ukrainian energy infrastructure on Sunday evening, despite US President Donald Trump claiming earlier that morning that both sides had agreed to an ‘energy ceasefire’.

Looking ahead, Tuesday’s speeches from Bank of England policymakers Megan Greene and Swati Dhingra could offer fresh clues about the outlook for UK interest rates.
With Greene generally taking a hawkish stance and Dhingra leaning dovish, any conflicting messages could leave the Pound without a clear direction.
Federal Reserve officials are also scheduled to speak.
If their comments strengthen expectations of a December rate hike, the US Dollar could find further support.
Meanwhile, changing risk appetite is likely to remain a key driver for the safe-haven ‘Greenback’.
Shifts in sentiment could therefore keep the Pound US Dollar exchange rate volatile.

The weekly chart also supports the potential for an eventual resolution to the upside above $3.298. Last week, a bullish continuation signal was confirmed by a weekly close above the prior week’s high of $3.18. This resulted in a higher weekly low and higher high, suggesting that the weekly bullish trend was continuing after a higher swing low formed at $2.817 (A) last month.
If the bullish advance resumes after the current short-term consolidation, the September high of $3.317 and June high of $3.396 define a range of potential resistance. In addition, a measured move points to $3.41 as a potential upside target. Because this target is relatively close to the July high of $3.396, the two levels form a potential resistance zone between $3.396 and $3.41. A test of that zone could therefore mark the next significant challenge for buyers if natural gas breaks above the nearer resistance levels. For now, the ability to hold support near $3.10 and break above $3.204 remains important to the bullish outlook.
