Glacier FarmMedia | MarketsFarm – There were gains in canola on the Intercontinental Exchange mid-morning Tuesday, but they came away from session highs in choppy activity.
A trader said there was talk of possible canola sales, but he wasn’t sure of the quantity or the destination. He also said there’s trendline support for canola in coming off of its lows.
Canola was getting some support from modest upticks in Malaysian palm oil, but the Chicago soy complex and MATIF rapeseed were lower. Losses in crude oil added more pressure on the vegetable oils.
