COPPER_ HGK18  #copperfutures (Roll to July 4-25)

Weekly – The weekly traded up to the 25×5 moving average n ear 3.15 then pulled back. Trade pressures are rising into the neutral zone. Volumes are neutral.

Daily – Flat. The long trade was stopped out for a gain as the pullback occurred. Trade pressures have changed to down. Volumes have changed to neutral.

Still in the move up from the 3.30 long entry. The next target up is 3.17. Expect a move higher after the cessation of strikes in Syria.

A close below 3.05 would signal lower. The hourly is oversold, so wait for an over bot on the hourly for a short confirmation.

Weekly – Continuing the move sideways in the channel. Trade pressures have moved up. Volumes are now bullish.

Daily – Flat. Price has moved to the upper bound of the downtrend line. Trade pressures are up but turning down. Volumes are now neutral.
