We wouldn’t blame you if you mistook the lumber price chart with a cryptocurrency. Down more than 70% from its peak in May 2021, lumber’s had astonishing volatility over the past few years.
On a longer-term chart, the 460 handle represents a very long-term support/resistance level. With current Lumber prices just shy of this major support level of 460, could we see a breakout higher? Previous 2 attempts to break this level were rejected sharply and a huge rally ensued.
Additionally, current RSI readings indicate oversold levels which have been useful in picking the past few bottoms.
Overall, we think that lumber could be primed for a move up as it edges closer to the major long-term support level.
Entry at 475, stops at 435. Target at 630.
