Robusta MAR23 contract settled at $1872 -12 with a 1888/1865 range. Fairly quiet session that went against the grain of the wider commodity markets. Wider markets were helped today with the lower US CPI inflation print but this was not enough to trigger a ‘’green’’ day for Robusta. Plenty of origin selling at current levels really weighed on flat price in particular the MAR23 contract. Volumes remain around the 10k mark on H3 which is around average for the last few sessions. JAN/MAR had a 15/29 range on 3.8k lots settling at +20 unchanged. Jan23 1950/1800 put spread vs 1895Δ69 traded 300x @ 59.
