Copper futures remain in a downtrend and the most recent recovery appears to be a correction. Last week’s extension lower maintains the bearish trending price sequence of lower lows and lower highs and confirms a resumption of the bear cycle that started on Jan 18. The focus is on $350.54, a Fibonacci retracement point. Initial firm resistance is seen at 373.03, the 20-day EMA. A break would expose the 50-day EMA at 384.67.
