CHILEAN COPPER MINER - ANTOFAGASTA - SETS UP FOR BUY
This massive Copper-Miner, Antofagasta presented in a scan and I could see the huge demand side from a couple of years ago and upwards sloping chart from left to right. Then all of a sudden 'bam' and the healthy demand side turns to supply and selling.
But in the past month or 2, buying has reemerged inside of a triangle-pattern-daily-chart and it I am getting buy signals on MACD, the Squeeze indicator is also talking back at me, I will watch this over the coming sessions to make an entry.
Watch this space.

ANTO Short - 60 points - Trend AnalysisAnto looks good for a short.
Resistance level has been tested a few times in the past 5 months. It almost broke through last week but yesterdays pin bar bouncing off the resistance level and today's indecisiveness leads to me to think this will drop circa 60 points.
Is Antofagasta going for its new high?This copper mining company has been in a bullish long-term uptrend since last year until it topped in February 2017 and started to go rather downwards. This medium-term downtrend was broken now keeping a track of short-term uptrend again.
Money flow measuring volume has entered buying territory and MACD entered positive half where MA line is nicely diverging from a signal line.
Copper price finally bounced from its bottom last December and has been trading around 2.6 usd/lb, which is already a reasonable price for mining companies to record profits on sales.
I would consider this set-up as a good buying opportunity with stop-loss at 825 - in case it's still forming its base reversing back to 750 level at its big support level.
Will upbeat FY numbers help Antofagasta breach falling channelHigher metals prices and lower cash costs helped push full year earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation at Antofagasta up 78.7% to $1.6bn.
It remains to be seen if the numbers are good enough to push the share price above 810 levels. That would mark a bullish break from the falling channel formation.
Antofagasta – Eyes H&S necklineRetreat from the previous day’s high of 503.00 t o today’s low of 492.00 suggests the rebound from the low of 473 (Sep 12 low) has run out of steam and the prices could test head and shoulder neckline level of 474.
Moreover, we have had an inverse head and shoulder breakout failure…and that adds credence to the bearish view.
