Copper futures remain in a short-term downtrend and recent gains appear to be corrective. A key support at $336.10, the Sep 6 low, has recently been cleared. The break strengthens a bearish case and this has exposed $313.55, the Jul 15 low. Key short-term resistance to watch is unchanged at $378.35, Aug 26 high. A break would cancel a bearish theme and highlight an important short-term bullish break. This would open $405.70, the May 12 low.
