Today’s Chart of the Day was shared by Eric Conrads (@conradseric).
- Over the past three months, Copper has dropped as much as -22.6% from its peak. It broke out to all-time highs in May after forming a two-year base. However, the breakout quickly failed, leaving the bulls trapped above $5.
- It stopped falling three weeks ago after finding support slightly below $4. Eric points out that this level represents the 200-week moving average and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the 2022 drawdown.
- Copper printed a Higher Low during the recent correction, meaning the long-term uptrend remains intact. Higher Copper prices are generally perceived as bullish for the stock market and the economy.
Takeaway: Copper is rebounding off a long-term support level. It recently dropped -22.6% from record highs; however, the long-term uptrend never broke. Higher Copper prices are generally bullish for stocks and the economy.

$SMH – The strong bounce out of the August low was stopped on Thursday by the 50 DMA. Since then we’ve seen a pullback that filled the gap from August 15 at today’s low. It needs a close above the 50 DMA on Thursday to confirm that the August 5 low was an intermediate term low. pic.twitter.com/Pn09URTiUC

One of the important things I look for in a trade is if it has a well-defined risk point where I can say “I am wrong” and cut my losses.$ETH is a well-defined short-side trade. Above 2830 or so the trade is wrong pic.twitter.com/Iox0NTARTk
