Elliott Wave view: Copper (HG) Still Has Further UpsideShort term Elliott Wave view in Copper (HG) suggests that the dips to 3.11 on November 11 ended wave ((ii)). The metal has resumed higher and ended wave ((iii)) at 3.52. Internal of wave ((iii)) unfolded as a 5 waves impulse Elliott Wave structure. Up from wave ((ii)) low, wave i ended at 3.26 and pullback in wave ii ended at 3.169. The metal resumed higher in wave iii towards 3.3, and pullback in wave iv ended at 3.235. Final leg higher in wave v ended at 3.33. This completed wave (i) in higher degree. The metal then pullback in wave (ii) which ended at 3.28. Up from there, wave (iii) ended at 3.50 with internal also as a 5 waves impulse in lesser degree. From there, dips to wave (iv) ended at 3.43, and wave (v) completed at 3.52. This 5 waves move higher ended cycle from November 11 low in wave ((iii)). The metal then pullback in 3 swing (w)-(x)-(y) which found buyers at the blue box equal leg area. Wave ((iv)) is proposed complete at 3.439 and copper has turned higher from the blue box. It now needs to break above wave ((iii)) at 3.50 to avoid a double correction. As far as wave ((ii)) pivot at 3.11 stays intact, dips should continue to find support in 3, 7 or 11 swing for more upside.

Copper turning point?Technical: An hour precision chart indicates possible head and shoulder formation, negative RSI. Day precision chart indicates RSI almost at its 80s and if a divergence is to be build somewhere there is a high chance it is here. Fundamental: Low stockpile of copper in China has inspired a rally but at this level of stockpile ALWAYS in the past we have seen a move that rebuilds it fast within a month. Take profit 2.5 It would be great to see gold retest 1850 from bottom and then all commodities could initiate a simultaneous correction. In the long term commodities (obviously not all of them) can only rise.

Weekly copper market review 11/30/2020.Support us by consulting our free daily magazines with color stock charts and weather maps on our commodity-market-review.com website. TECHNICAL ANALYSIS OF COPPER Last week, COMEX copper futures closed higher at $3.4010 per pound, the highest value since late 2013. Speculative trading is pushing copper prices higher, with net positions of the net commitments of traders at +68K being on historical highs. Copper stocks are historically low and declining. They stand at 317706 MT, a decrease of more than 3%, or nearly 10,000 MT. Inventories in Shanghai have fallen by 74.5% since the end of March, and given the forecast deficit of the red metal, the trend should continue in the coming months. Last week, the US and Euro zone manufacturing PMIs came out at 56.7 and 53.6 respectively. On Monday, China's Manufacturing PMI came out at 52.1. This confirms the good resilience of the manufacturing sector in general, as a reminder a figure above 50 indicates an expansion of the sector. The Euro zone and the US followed an 8th month of expansion and China a 9th. Internationally, the prospect of Janet Yellen, former FED president, becoming Secretary of the Treasury in Joe Biden's future administration, and the hope of a vaccine is fuelling markets. Many countries are preparing vaccination campaigns. Investors are also anticipating a massive stimulus package, with increased government spending, which is weakening the dollar. The dollar is still low and in a downward trend, the DXY closes at 91.790. While waiting for a vaccine, the pandemic is not weakening. We have just passed 62 million cases worldwide, with more than 1.460 million deaths. The United States is the most affected country with more than 267,000 deaths and more than 13 million cases. ECONOMIC RESULTS - Last week, manufacturing PMIs in the Euro-Zone came out down to 53.6 in November from 54.8 in October. U.S. manufacturing PMIs rose to 56.7 in November from 53.4 in October. - On Monday, China's manufacturing PMIs stood at 52.1 in November compared with 51.4 in October. - On Tuesday, Caixin Manufacturing PMI, Euro-zone Manufacturing PMI and Inflation, U.S. Manufacturing PMI and ISM Manufacturing PMI. - On Wednesday, Euro zone unemployment and U.S. job creation. - Thursday, retail sales in the Euro zone, U.S. unemployment registrations. - Friday, the report on U.S. employment and industrial orders CERTIFIED COPPER STOCKS - London Stock Exchange copper stocks are down to 150775 MT from 157350 MT last week. - Copper stocks on the Shanghai Stock Exchange decreased to 92912 MT from 96766 MT the previous week. - Copper stocks on the New York Stock Exchange were down to 74019 MT from 74290 MT the previous week. - Total copper stocks were down to 317706 MT compared to 328406 MT the previous week. Total copper stocks are below the five-year average. THE DOLLAR The DXY index representing the Dollar against a range of foreign currencies closed last week down to 91.790, and the trend is still bearish. This is the first close below the 92 resistance level in almost 2 1/2 years. The presumed appointment of Janet Yellen as U.S. Treasury Secretary and Joe Biden's talk of a massive $3 trillion support package weighed on the Dollar. Forex traders are anticipating an increase in the money supply. In addition, U.S. unemployment figures, consumer confidence indexes and inflation figures disappointed last week. A low Dollar is generally favorable to the Dollar-denominated commodities markets.

High grade copper HG looking bullsihCopper traded on the COMEX looks bullish. Currently at 3.20 per pound, the chart shows an Eve and Adam bottom forming between 2015 and now. The expected target of this move would be 4.70 which would put the market five cents above its old high set in Feb 2011 of 4.65. From 4.65 I would expect the market to revisit the 3.30-3.60 region to make a strong bottom for a longer term ascent. Looking back further on the copper chart, there is a longer term Adam and Eve bottom forming starting in Dec 2008 to present. The target would be 7.365 based off of this longer term pattern. If copper were to trade up to 4.70 area and come back down to 3.50 area, it would also present an opportunity for an ascending triangle to form with the same target, 7.365, as the Adam and Eve pattern. With a weakening dollar, look to copper for guidance on inflation going forward.

Copper smashing new highs and it isn't even 2021 On the back of growing demand out of China (50% of global demand), Asia recovery and general optimism from Vaccine news, Copper has reached record levels that haven't been seen since June 2018. Last night's U.S. manufacturing in November saw the quickest pickup since September 2014, driving expectations of higher base metals demand in the US for next year. Low prices have kept new copper mines from developing, and a shortage of scrap has also helped drive up pricing. At $3.00 per pound, copper becomes an attractive investment for new miners, so no doubt new copper mining projects will be speed up. Nevertheless, new mines take a while and increasing demand will continue to put prices under pressure for the immediate future.

CopperLook at this little chart. screams short in my opinion. so lets try building a small (short) position over the next few weeks and see if it holds. remember, as soon as your position turns green, take risk off and play with the banks money. it doesn't take huge contract size to make money, all you have to be is "right" in your directional call. this type of trend is showing in many different charts right now. the market is waiting for U. S. stimulus which will come with Biden. in the meantime look for pullbacks. and don't use stops, if you can afford it.
