$FCX - Breaking outNYSE:FCX is breaking out! But I will look to enter on trendline check back.
The measured move is $60.

About to break out of baseFCX has been consolidating for over a year and is building a nice cup base. On Thursday it gapped up to stay above the 50 EMA and is still holding. The bottom of this base is probably in. Great for long term swing.
Possible Long Trade for FCX-FreeportI prefer to go long on NYSE:FCX because of my CAPITALCOM:COPPER expectation ( ). In 2024 growth might slow a bit but with the rate cut expectations looming, Freeport might give some buying oppurtunity as long as S&P 500 entered a bear mode. I don't expect a breakout at the key 46.50 top however. I think 2.71 R/R ratio is good enough for a trade like this.
