Copper futures have recovered well off the Dec 15 lows, despite breaching key short-term support at $420.00. The break reinforced a bearish threat however, this has been neutralised following the strong rebound off that day’s low. Key support has been defined at $411.95 and an extension higher would expose $439.80, the Dec 9 high. A break of this level would strengthen a bullish theme. Weakness below $411.95, Dec 15 low, is required to reinstate a bearish tone.
