Update idea
Copper Long Term AnalysisLooking for a reason to be bullish copper? You might cite a weak US Dollar, the world wanting more electric cars, or our obsession with telecom...I'm just looking at the chart.
Bullish trend? Check. Support held? Check. Alright lets look for some higher targets! For me I'm looking for an extension to the 3.4500 level. It might take some time to get there but I'm OK with that, there's a lot of sweet bamboo around.

Copper to 3.40 and 3.65 PossiblyCopper has been bullish since the bottoming we pointed out in early 2016. Now 2.90 has become an area of previous structure where we have held up recently printing a pin bar and bullish engulfing candlestick. It is possible we go lower before going up towards 2.70-2.80, but highly unlikely. The next area of resistance will be the 3.40 area and then around the 3.65 area as well.
Copper continuationIdea: Copper continuation long based on bullish RSI swing failure on the hourly chart. The Daily resistance level 2.966 has recently been broken and seen a pullback. Strength in retesting this level could see a possible upside continuation to 3.08325.
Cons: The stop has to survive the Monday open.

Copper Lower Again for a good buying chance?Hey guys,
We expect the market to make one leg lower to around 2.445, BUT only when the market stays below the high 2.70. When this level breaks we will be looking at a move higher to around at 2.776. Our intermarket indication supports our idea of facing south. Critical zone will be the lower range of 2.58! Around 2.444 will be a good buying chance IF market reaches that level. Let's see!
Hope that helps.
Cheers
Good confirmation of long on Copper:Copper Finally showing some good movement. I have re-opened my copper position and will also be looking to get into some BUY positions on the AUD side.
The reason I say it is confirmed now is that it broke back above the 50 day MA, it's above the 50 RSI and the MACD (looks like) it wants to start heading into positive territory.
The only thing to watch is the stochastic, it looks like it may want to embed, or it may be saying that we are looking at sideways movement for a while on this next run up.
Bullish on Copper - But feel best to wait a bit yet for EntryI think it's just about time to buy copper again, in fact I was flipped the buy signal back on April 24th. However, I am sitting on the sidelines, mainly because I want to see the RSI get back over 50 before jumping back in. Once the RSI can get back above 50 (if it does within the next few trading sessions) I'll be going long copper :)
Fundamentally, Copper should rise from here - but there are a few potential snags that could still weigh heavy on her.
Neutral on Copper for right now - but ready to get long: I am neutral on copper for right this second, but I am getting ready to get long on copper in the next few trading sessions. It looks like she wants to break off the 9 day MA and the Aussie Dollar is showing some strength (just went long AUDJPY) and this suggests perhaps copper will be getting ready to make a comeback. Since contracts expired yesterday it does look like buyers want to get back in the game. I am essentially waiting for a clear break / crossover of the MACD for confirmation.
When I do go long, I will be setting SL for 2.4000
Copper - Bullish PotentialCopper is currently consolidating inside wave B of a corrective wave, which follows the bearish impulse which began in 2011. We expect copper to resume its bullish movement and complete wave C of this cycle over the new few months. The previous bounce off the .786 retracement prints a likely low in the market, and the correction since that time has proceeded exactly as we would expect if this is a low.
There exists support in a demand zone at the .618 retracement line, upon which the market is currently skipping and rejecting bearish movement.
Buy the breakout !2017 seem to be the year of commodities comeback with the economy growth and inflation showing signs of returning and Trump protectionism speech seem set to stop USD strength. History has a clear view on soft interventions like this and they usually point down for USD (1987 plaza accord comes to mind). Furthermore, EM would benefit greatly of a weaker USD and China cutting oversupply in coal (up more than 130% in 2016) and now seem to follow through on copper consumption and cutting aluminum oversupply. This all also holds promising signs for gold the leader of the commodity space. Having said that "doctor copper" is the life pulse on the economy. If half what we are hearing about infrastructure projects etc. commodities and specifically copper are set to be a winner in 2017. Technically 50/200 moving average have already decided on top price action. It says up. Confirmed by rounding bottom and the decisive breaking of a downwards trend. Entry point somewhat tricky - sitting at 2.75 resistance could fall as far as 2.50. Binomial option in place in other words - providing two scenarios - buy dip (2.50) or buy breakout of 2.75 - whichever comes first in other words.
