Domestic coffee prices today
Coffee prices today in the domestic market increased slightly compared to the previous session. According to giacaphe. com, the average coffee price on August 21st was 97,900 VND/kg, an increase of 100 VND/kg.
In Dak Lak, coffee prices were recorded at 97,900 VND/kg, an increase of 200 VND/kg compared to the previous session.
In Lam Dong, coffee prices reached 97,300 VND/kg, an increase of 100 VND/kg. This is the lowest level among the surveyed areas.
In Gia Lai, coffee prices are at 97,900 VND/kg, an increase of 200 VND/kg.
The old Dak Nong area recorded a level of 98,000 VND/kg, unchanged compared to the previous session. This is the highest level in today’s price list.
The increase is not large, but it helps the price level continue to hold close to the 98,000 VND/kg zone after previous strong fluctuations.
The USD/VND exchange rate according to Vietcombank was recorded at 25,870 VND/USD, down 90 VND.
World coffee prices
In the world market, coffee prices in the most recent session diễn biến trái chiều (developed in opposite directions).
According to Barchart, the September 2026 Arabica futures contract closed up 4.10 US cents/lb, equivalent to 1.14%. Conversely, the September 2026 Robusta futures contract fell 16 USD/ton, equivalent to 0.43%.
Barchart said Arabica increased as it continued to consolidate below the 6.5-month high price range. Meanwhile, Robusta was under pressure as Robusta inventory certified on ICE rose to a 5.25-month high.
This development shows that the support from the world market is not even. For Vietnam, Robusta is still the group that has a more direct impact on domestic purchasing prices, so the slight decrease in Robusta makes the domestic upward momentum only at a modest level.
Coffee price assessment
Domestic coffee prices increased slightly by 100-200 VND/kg in many regions, but have not created a clear breakthrough. The highest price level is currently at 98,000 VND/kg, still lower than the 100,000 VND/kg mark that the market had previously noticed.
A noteworthy point is that domestic prices still increased slightly even though Robusta London decreased in the most recent session. This shows that domestic prices are still affected by real supply and demand, the amount of goods in the people, the purchasing demand of export businesses and exchange rate fluctuations.
According to Barchart, drier weather in Brazil may support harvest progress, creating a price holding factor. Cooxupe Cooperative said harvests reached 81.1% as of August 14, up from last week but still lower than 86.1% in the same period last year.
Domestically, according to the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, in July, Vietnam exported about 147,600 tons of coffee, worth 639.5 million USD. Accumulated in the first 7 months of the year, coffee exports reached about 1.2 million tons, an increase of 10.8% in volume but turnover decreased by 11.2%, to 5.45 billion USD. The main reason is that the average export price decreased by 19.9% compared to the same period, down to 4,537 USD/ton.
Regarding the weather, the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting said that on the day and night of August 21, the Central Highlands area will have showers and thunderstorms in some places; especially in the afternoon and evening there will be showers, scattered thunderstorms, locally heavy rain. Lowest temperature 20-23 degrees C, highest 27-30 degrees C.
This season’s thunderstorms need to be monitored in terms of garden care, pest and disease prevention, and goods preservation.
In the coming sessions, the diễn biến of Robusta London, Arabica New York, USD/VND exchange rate, inventory and demand for export purchases will continue to dominate the domestic price level.
The article covers the following subjects:
Consider long positions from corrections above 4,315.60 with a target of 4,900.00–5,610.00.
Breakout and consolidation below 4,315.60 will allow the asset to continue declining to the levels of 4,003.25–3,720.00.
An ascending third wave of larger degree (3) is presumably developing on the weekly chart. Within it, a descending correction has been completed as the fourth wave of smaller degree 4 of (3). Apparently, the fifth wave 5 of (3) started developing on the daily chart, with wave i of 5 forming as its part. Wave (iii) of i of 5 continues developing on the H4 chart, with wave v of (iii) unfolding as part of its structure. If the presumption is correct, XAU/USD will continue to rise to 4,900.00–5,610.00. The level of 4,315.60 is critical in this scenario as a breakout below it will enable the asset to continue declining to the levels of 4,003.25–3,720.00.
This forecast is based on the Elliott Wave Theory. When developing trading strategies, it is essential to consider fundamental factors, as the market situation can change at any time.

Platinum price manages to settle above the moving average 55, holding near the breached resistance at $1785.00 level, keeping the bullish trend by recording the initial target at $1865.00.
The continuation of providing positive momentum by the main indicators will increase the chances of facing $1905.00 level, and surpassing it might extend the trading towards the next main target near $1955.00, note that the bearish trend return depends on the attempt of reaching below $1745.00 level and providing repeated negative closes.
The expected trading range for today is between $1820.00 and $1905.00
Trend forecast: Bullish
The GBPJPY pair benefited from the positive factors to end the dominance of the corrective trend, to form a strong bullish rally, surpassing the barrier at 216.35, recording the initial main target by reaching 216.90 level.
The positive factors make us prefer witnessing more bullish attempts, to expect targeting 217.35 and 217.80 level, while the decline below 216.35 and providing a negative close will force it to delay the bullish trend and providing mixed trading, and there is a chance to decline towards 215.55 before any attempt to record the suggested taregts.
The expected trading range for today is between 216.30 and 217.80
Trend forecast: Bullish
Silver prices pushed to their highest level in two months on Thursday after Wednesday’s powerful rally carried XAG/USD through the mid-$60s.

The Silver to US Dollar (XAG/USD) price reached $67.11 before easing to around $66.66, leaving it 0.46% lower on the day but still 3.20% higher over five sessions.
The metal has gained more than 18% over the past month.

The latest move was triggered by the US Treasury’s decision to at least double some bond-buyback operations at the long end of the curve.
That announcement pulled Treasury yields and the Dollar lower on Wednesday, providing a sharp boost to non-yielding assets and helping silver outperform gold.
TD Securities’ Gennadiy Goldberg described the Treasury move as “the first of many possible actions” available to support the long end.
The rally has since encountered profit-taking as hawkish elements in the Federal Reserve minutes reminded investors that another rate increase has not been ruled out.
For silver, the technical picture has nevertheless improved substantially.
A sustained break above $67.10 would put $70 back in focus, while the $64-$65 area should now offer the first meaningful support after the latest breakout.
Failure to hold above $62.50 would weaken the recovery signal, but with XAG/USD still sharply higher over one month, momentum remains more constructive than it was in July.
Our currency coverage draws on live market data, official economic releases and published bank research.
The price of gold declined during its latest intraday trading, affected by the stability of the main resistance level at $4,500, to gather the gains of its previous rises, attempting to offload some of its clear overbought conditions on the relative strength indicators, with the emergence of the negative signals from them, to gather its bullish strength that might help it to resume its gains, with the dominance of the main bullish trend on the short-term basis, with its trading alongside minor trend line that supports this trend, besides the continuation of the dynamic support that is represented by its trading above EMA50, reinforcing the chances of near term recovery.

Iran said it would adopt a more aggressive military stance, while the US declined to extend a ceasefire arrangement.
