aluminiumSINGAPORE: LME aluminium would rise to $2,315 per tonne over the next three months, as a short-term uptrend from the Aug. 16 low of $1,827.25 has not completed.

 

This trend will partially reverse a preceding downtrend that developed from the May 3, 2011, high of $2,803 to $1,827.25.

 

Two waves labelled a and c will drive the trend up.

 

The wave a has completed around $2,200, the 38.2 percent Fibonacci retracement on the fall from $2,803 to $1,827.25.

 

The wave labelled b will react to the uptrend, and is expected to end around a support at $2,058, the 23.6 percent retracement. This support has been enforced by another one provided by the trendline descending from $2,803.

 

The wave b drop could also be viewed as a pullback to the trendline.

 

The $2,057 level sits on the 38.2 percent retracement of the wave a, which rose from $1,827.25 to $2,199, a break below which will lead to a moderate fall to $2,013, the 50 percent retracement.

 

The wave c will soon take over to push aluminium towards $2,315, a 50 percent retracement.
