Copper has been bottoming for quite some time. Economic trends are plumbing/housing, electronics, and EV vehicles, so let's step back and review.
* Oversupply for quite some time.
* Copper prices are historically peak in December.
* Housing/construction build rates for SF/MF/5+units is steady Yr/Yr for 5-yr and slight growth if any.
* Electronics is in steep decline from overstock parts and US-China trade war
* Electric vehicles are the new growth at 150+ lb. / vehicle for motor windings for copper, trend to continue as EV Class 8 heavy trucks will use 300+ lb. / truck (TESLA/NAV)
* Current chart showing upward movement from 618fibretracement to 500fibretracement as positive.
Maybe a micro trend without larger scope of current global economy, but something to watch for safe haven opportunities. VIX
The yuan hit a fresh 21-month low against the U.S. dollar Thursday, and the Shanghai Composite Index has lost about a quarter of its value so far in 2018.

Trading inside a Rectangle. Short.Copper is trading sideways for more than a month now within a 2.5400 - 2.7350 Rectangle on 1D (RSI = 56.012, MACD = 0.000) and the High Volatility (ATR = 0.0544) ensures the preservation of this neutral action. As seen the price has just been rejected on the Resistance, so we are now short aiming at 2.565.
Copper: Trade war fatigue and 2-week high is bullishThe news has been bad around China and the trade war- but perhaps some relief is due as fatigue sets in
Copper has broken out of a triangle base
Scenario A) Broken trend line provides support on a pullback for bigger move to 2.86
Scenario B) Old highs at 2.75 hold and price drops back into its range

Target hit. Near a Lower High confirmation. Short.Copper is trading within a 1D Channel Down (RSI = 43.155, MACD = -0.058, Highs/Lows = -0.0015, B/BP = -0.0380) after reaching the 2.54472 mark. It is now near a new Lower High = 2.69388, which if it holds, will test the 2nd 1W support = 2.45945, which is our target for the new short on XCUUSD. If the Lower High is crossed, the we will get a temporary rise to 2.85479.
Expect Copper to Reach for New Highs!!!As previously discussed in other post I expected Copper to correct quite a bit. I was expecting the 2.44-2.60 area because of many confluences. However, we have completed an ending diagonal pattern that pushed to 2.86. Now we have come down to my expected support area based on fractals and fib levels, which we are now holding. Also, if you look at the USDOLLAR we have hit a significant topping point. Also, this can be seen as we have lots of sideways action in AUDUSD at the $0.73 mark. Also, expect to Gold to follow suite with new highs in the medium term. This is a great time to get long based on probabilities and risk/reward.
Copper: Trade for Bearish Continuation of 1H Bearish Impulse 4H AO cross has not happened yet and there is bar divergence on that time frame so this must be kept in mind. I will be looking to move to breakeven quickly and perhaps even take profit at the target but that has not been decided yet. The overall trend is bearish but this may be a short term trade before the larger correction and final 4H continuation trade. Stay patient.
So far Long. But bearish reversal if 2.6938 crossed.Copper is on important crossroads. It has so far rebounded on the 1st 1W support at 2.69388. This is a medium term bullish signal towards 2.85479 as 1D is already easing the previous oversold MACD = -0.081, Highs/Lows = -0.0468, B/BP = -0.1300. 4H is already on neutral STOCH, ADX, Williams, Highs/Lows, steady enough to sustain this bullish counter-leg. The current trade is long, TP = 2.85479 but if 2.69388 breaks, then we'll take a short towards the 2nd 1W support (2.45945) with TP = 2.45945.
Copper. Multi-year correction is over. Target 1.94Copper was doing good during last two years as it rallied from sub-2 to above-3 levels.
But the structure is corrective so the wave C finished the correction being equal to wave A by size.
Then we saw a breakdown below the white support this March.
After that there was a healthy pullback, which was rather menacing as it almost broke the earlier top but failed just one cent ahead
keeping the whole structure intact.
So the support at the 2.94 level is crucial as it already rejected the drop once before.
Watch it to be broken before further meltdown could occur in the copper market.
The minimum target is at the previous major low at the 1.94.
What is sad about it - copper means economy, weak copper means weak economy...again?
