PALMOILMAGAZINE, KUALA LUMPUR — Malaysian palm oil futures retreated on Tuesday (Oct. 6, 2026), as traders took profits following the previous session’s gains. Most benchmark contracts on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives ended lower, while Indonesia’s domestic CPO price moved modestly higher.

According to Bernama, the October 2026 CPO contract fell RM50 to RM4,340 per tonne. The November contract, which recorded the highest trading volume among the benchmark months, declined RM23 to RM4,457 per tonne.

The December 2026 contract dropped RM18 to RM4,560 per tonne, while January 2027 fell RM9 to RM4,663 per tonne. February 2027 declined RM3 to RM4,758 per tonne.

March 2027 was the only contract to finish higher, gaining RM2 to RM4,843 per tonne.

The broad-based decline reflected renewed selling pressure after the market’s previous-session advance. Profit-taking emerged as a key factor behind the correction as traders locked in gains from the recent rise.

Trading activity increased during the session, with Bursa Malaysia CPO futures volume reaching 92,828 lots, up from 87,313 lots on Monday.

Open interest also edged higher to 329,375 contracts from 329,113 contracts a day earlier.

Malaysia Physical CPO Prices Also Decline

The weakness extended into Malaysia’s physical palm oil market. The October delivery price for southern Malaysia fell RM40 to RM4,380 per tonne.

The simultaneous decline in futures and physical prices pointed to broader short-term corrective pressure across the Malaysian palm oil market, despite the increase in trading activity.
