NY cocoa may retest resistance at $5,131

SINGAPORE, Nov 13 (Reuters) - New York December cocoa may retest a resistance at $5,131 per metric ton, a break above which could lead to a gain into $5,195-$5,299 range.

The rise from $4,640 is classified as a bounce against the downtrend from $5,906. The exact endpoint of this bounce remains unknown.

The basic assumption is the bounce may extend further, as long as there is no convincing bearish reversal signal. Immediate support is at $5,027, a break below which could trigger a fall into $4,859-$4,923 range.
