Market Pressures_  #tradesummary

Copper avoided the sell stop and rallied past resistance. Gold started a second leg up from the 1205 entry level. Silver ground higher, but seems to be running out of momentum.

Crude oil still in the 51-54 channel. Looking for a breakout either way. Crude closed Friday near the upper bound.

Natural Gas remains in sell mode.

The US Treasury bonds are trying to rally price. But the US Dollar futures are rallying and that would put downward pressures on the bond price and upward pressures on rates.
