Copper futures remain below recent and still appear vulnerable short-term having reversed course on Jan 8/9 off the high of 373.40. The trend has been overbought for some time and a pullback will contribute to an unwinding of this condition. Attention is on the 20-day EMA that was probed earlier this week. A clear break would allow for a deeper sell-off. Key resistance is at 373.40.
