Copper futures found support at Monday's low of $302.80 and continued to trade higher. Despite recent gains, the outlook is bearish with price action still in a corrective phase. Price last week traded through the 20-day EMA signalling scope for a deeper pullback. Activity this week has also seen price test the 50-day EMA. A convincing breach of the average would reinforce S/T bearish conditions. The bull trigger is $321.80, a break resumes the uptrend.
