I have never noticed the setup \setupfloatcaption before, but I think
you have to add a top/middle/bottom or so to the outermargin, like



\setupfloatcaption[figure][location={outermargin,middle}]
\starttext

\placefigure
  [top]
  {The famous dutch cow!}
  {\externalfigure[cow]}
\stoptext


Another option might be to use \setupcaption (somebody could perhaps
tell the difference between \setupfloatcaption and \setupcaption?)

\setupcaption[figure][
location={outermargin,middle},
align=flushleft,
width=\marginwidth,
]

\starttext
\showframe%just to show where it ends up

\placefigure
  [top]
  {The famous dutch cow!}
  {\externalfigure[cow]}

\stoptext
