Copper futures are firmer today. Attention is on resistance at $441.80 that lies just above the top of a bear channel top drawn from the May 10 high. The channel intersects at $441.74. A break of these two levels would represent an important bullish breakout and signal scope for a stronger recovery. This would open $458.60, the Jul 27 high. On the downside, support is at $420.60. Bear will be looking for this level to break.
