LME copper may rise to $6,215

Published Updated

The resistance is identified as the 23.6 percent retracement of the downtrend from $7,348 to $5,773. The metal has been bouncing up and down within a channel which defines a support at $6,003 and a resistance at $6,215, the 38.2 percent projection level of a presumed wave C from $5,977.50.

The current bounce may end around $6,215, a break above which could confirm the extension of the wave C towards the range of $6,361-$6,598. A break below $6,068 could cause a loss into the zone of $5,883-$6,003.
