COPPER TECHS: (Z4) Watching Support

COPPER TECHS
  • RES 4: $511.20 - High May 20 and a key resistance. 
  • RES 3: $488.95 - High May 29 
  • RES 2: $484.12 - 76.4% retracement of the May 20 - Aug 7 bear leg 
  • RES 1: $479.00 - High Sep 30 
  • PRICE: $453.45 @ 14:41 BST Oct 3
  • SUP 1: $432.76 - 50-day EMA  
  • SUP 2: $404.20/396.45 - Low Sep 5 / Low Aug 7 and the bear trigger
  • SUP 3: $387.40 - Low Mar 1
  • SUP 4: $374.65 - Low Feb 9 and key support   

Copper futures traded in a volatile manner Monday but have reversed sharply from that day's intraday high. For now, the move down is considered corrective and a deeper retracement would allow an oversold trend condition to unwind. Key support is seen at $432.76, the 50-day EMA. Key near-term resistance is seen at $479.00, Monday’s intraday high. A break of this level would mark a resumption of the uptrend.
