LME copper may fall into $7,419-$7,542 range this week

SINGAPORE: LME copper may fall into a range of $7,419-$7,542 a tonne this week, as it has completed a bounce from the July 15 low of $6,955.

The bounce adopted a zigzag mode, consisting of three waves, with the wave C and the wave A almost equal.

This relation, along with the deep drop form the Nov. 14 high of $8,600, confirms a completion of the bounce and a resumption of the downtrend.

The wave B ended at $7,220, which works as a target.
