Copper Futures (HG1!), H4 Potential for Bearish DropTitle: Copper Futures (HG1!), H4 Potential for Bearish Drop
Type: Bearish Drop
Resistance: 3.6920
Pivot: 3.5545
Support: 3.3840
Preferred case: On the H4 chart, we have a bearish bias. To add confluence to this, price is under the Ichimoku cloud which indicates a bearish market. If this bearish momentum continues, expect price to possibly break the Pivot at 3.5545, where the 61.8% Fibonacci line is, before heading towards the support level at 3.3840, where the previous swing low is.
Alternative scenario: Price may go back up towards the resistance line at 3.6920, where the 38.2% Fibonacci line is.
Fundamentals: There are no major news.

COPPER looks doomed on the long-term. Sell the rallies.Copper (HG1!) on the 1W time-frame appears to be repeating the previous major Bear Cycle that started in 2011/12. Based on this fractal analysis, the recent 1W rejection just below the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) puts us at a proportionate level as on the February 06 2012 1W candle. Having rebounded on the 1W MA100 (green trend-line) both on the July 11 and September 26 candles, we expect initially to reach it again and then rebound to make a Lower High and form a trend-line similar to that of 2012 - 2014 that made structured Highs to sell that took Copper to the 2.000 - 1.9360 Support Zone.
This long-term bearish pattern will get invalidated if the price breaks above the 0.618 Fibonacci extension, which was where (slightly below) the price was rejected on the February 06 2012 1W candle.

Copper down 5 days in a row; 3.5545 is keyThe industrial metal topped on March 7th at 5.0395. However, for the next 3 months, HG sold off aggressively and made a July 15th low at 3.1315! Fears of increased inflation, increased interest rates, and increased Covid cases in China led to a fear of lack of future demand. Copper traded between 3.2430 and 3.7830 from mid-July and November 10th, when it gapped higher the day after a lower-than-expected US CPI reading. However, Copper was stopped just short of the 200-Day Moving Average near 3.9600 on November 14th, and it hasn’t looked back since. After a 5-day selloff, is copper ready to bounce?
News of additional lockdowns and the “take-back” of a loosening of restrictions caused Copper to continue lower. Copper traded to horizontal support on Monday near 3.5545. If this price breaks, copper may easily fall to 3.3625. The next horizontal support levels are at the lows from September 28th at 3.2430, then the lows from July 15th at 3.1315.
However, don’t be surprised if there is some profit-taking ahead of the long US holiday at the end of the week. Sellers will be looking to add to shorts if price does bounce. The first resistance level is at the August 26th highs of 3.893, then a confluence of resistance at:
1. the highs of November 14th
2. the 200 Day Moving Average,
3. the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from the highs of June 3rd to the lows of July15th.
This resistance zone is between 3.9600 and 4.0250.
However, 3.5545 seems to be the “make or break” level for copper. If it breaks, copper could be on its way to the next support at 3.3625. But if it holds, it could bounce to the 4.000 area!
DR. Copper Trading The Bearish SequenceCopper on the weekly time frame appears to be carving out a five wave decline as the wave 4 high at 3.7930 holds a minimum downside objective of wave five equaling wave one provides a downside objective at 2.8435. The wave 4 on the daily time frame is creating a descending triangle pattern a break of 3.1380 warrant short exposure to target the wave 5 objective.

Copper analysis and ideas: Will bears come back?Copper prices may remain under pressure in the coming months due to investors' apprehension about China's growth prospects in the wake of the 20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, which disappointed the market.
Since September, copper prices have fluctuated within a relatively narrow range (3.2-3.6) after the earlier sharp declines occurred this year.
The long-term case for copper remains strong, as it is a key metal for the energy transition and global inventories are currently very low.
However, one of the main challenges it faces in the near future is its dependence on China’s economic growth.
The brown metal will remain under pressure unless China announces new growth-friendly economic policies to counteract the predicted slowdown in the country’s economy. However, the latest China Party Congress appears to prefer fostering sustainable growth and giving more importance to inequality, national security, and ideological matters.
Copper bull markets have historically coincided with periods of extraordinary global growth, driven primarily by China.
We have now reached a crossroads in that regard, and if China is unable to maintain high and consistent economic growth, copper will have to wait for a new global wave of coordinated investments toward the development of renewables and green energy. However, given the issues with inflation and rising interest rates that we are currently facing, it may still be years before the transition fully takes hold on a global scale. This could take the price of copper subdued for longer.
When we look at the daily chart, we can see that some bearish pressure was forming near the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the 2022 range. Also the 50-day moving average has been a quite strong dynamic resistance later. The technical picture remains overall on the bearish foot, and copper needs to clear the 2022 trendline at around $3.75 and then cross the psychological $4.00 mark before materially inverting the downtrend.

Copper Prices at Risk as Inverse Cup and Handle Takes Shape Copper prices are at risk of moving lower as an inverted handle takes shape following an inverted cup. The Inverse Cup and Handle pattern is an inherently bearish formation. A break below handle support would threaten the 3 psychological level.

Short Term Copper 'SELLS' heading into Q4 of 2022I think it's becoming more and more clear that copper sells could extend into the last quarter of the year. Corrective wave 4 seems complete at 0.382 of the second Minor wave count and price is currently in an impulsive bear wave of a lower degree. We should therefore expect Copper prices to plunge to $2.96/lb(-15.4% decline) with some minor bullish price action to around $3.2/lb before eventually finding support at $2.7/lb, representing a -22.42% decline based on the current market price.
As indicated in the chart, this short idea comes into play ONLY WHEN Copper prices drop BELOW $3.35/lb, which is the terminus of the minuette wave 1.
Additionally, I strongly recommend you to review my long term forecast in profile.
Here is a link to my previous Copper forecast.

Metals Copper idea (13/09/2022)Copper futures
The rise of the metal depends on the support point 3.3625 to achieve the metal’s decline to end the correction in wave 2. Before expecting the bullish rise again, the decline may reach 3.5345 prices or it may extend to 3.4685 before returning and rising again in wave 3
Metals Copper idea (08/09/2022)Copper futures
The rise of the metal depends on the support point 3.1315, and we expect the correction to end in wave 2. We expect the start of the rise again, but this depends on trading remaining above the support point of 3.3620, and the rise may reach 3.7130 prices or extend to 3.8915, but this depends on the support point at 3.3620 prices.
