* Palm hits intra-day high of 2,285 ringgit per tonne

* Ringgit at fresh 10-year low but traders seek new leads

* Euro zone woes hamper further gains

(Updates throughout, adds closing prices)

with support from a weak ringgit, but eased in light afternoon

trade to levels nearer Thursday's close to end the week down

slightly.

The September palm oil contract on the Bursa

Malaysia Derivatives exchange ended up 0.13 percent at 2,269

ringgit ($600.74) a tonne at close after trading in a

2,264-2,285 ringgit band.

Earlier, prices hit their highest since June 25 at 2,285

ringgit. Prices closed down 0.35 percent this week.

"The market is ticking up but nothing much," said a palm

trader with a foreign commodities brokerage in Malaysia. "The

ringgit is weakening a bit, and bean oil is higher."

"It is still range trading between 2,250 and 2,300," he

added. "One day up, one day down as people look for new leads."

Export and stocks data set to be released from next week

could offer further direction, he added.

The Malaysian ringgit traded at 10-year lows,

making benchmark palm cheaper for overseas buyers.

Total traded volume for palm was 27,981 lots of 25 tonnes

each, below the usual 35,000 lots.

Signals are mixed for palm oil, as it has approached a

resistance at 2,293 ringgit per tonne, said Reuters market

analyst Wang Tao.

In other vegetable oils, the U.S. July soyoil contract

rose 1.27 percent, while the most active January soybean

oil contract on the Dalian Commodity Exchange was 0.6

percent higher.

Worries about Greece's debt default and its potential impact

on European palm buying remain among palm traders.

While Europe was fixated on Greece, a rout in Chinese stock

markets continued. Chinese markets, which had risen as much as

110 percent from November to a peak in June, have collapsed

since June 12, losing more than 20 percent.

"Should Greece exit from the euro zone, it would be negative

for CPO prices as the economic uncertainties could weaken palm

oil demand from the EU which accounts for 12 percent of global

palm oil consumption," Ivy Ng, regional head of plantations

research at CIMB Investment Bank said in a research note.

Oil prices fell on Friday as a rising U.S. rig count stoked

fears of global oversupply and after Chinese regulators opened

an investigation into suspected stock market manipulation.
