Copper futures maintain a short-term bearish tone and recent gains appear to be corrective - for now. The sell-off that started Aug 1 resulted in a test of support at $369.45, the Jun 29 low. A clear break of this level would strengthen a bearish threat and open $358.60, the May 24 low and a key support. Key resistance has been defined at $403.75, the Aug 1 high. Clearance of this level is required to reinstate a bullish theme.
