Copper futures are trading lower and attention turns to support at $384.90, Mar 4 low. A break of this support is required to signal scope for a deeper retracement and extend the bearish reversal that occurred on Feb 25. This would open $372.55, the Feb 12 low. On the upside, resistance is at $419.00, Mar 15 high. A break would expose the key resistance and bull trigger at $437.55, Feb 25 high.
