Copper remains weak and has traded lower again today. Last week's sell-off resulted in a break of the 50-day EMA. The subsequent follow through and a break of trendline support at $423.86 reinforces the current bearish theme. The trendline is drawn off the Oct 2, 2020 low. Attention is on $405.66, a Fibonacci retracement. On the upside, initial resistance is at $440.45, Jun 16 high. A break above $460.10, Jun 11 high though would signal a reversal.
