COPPER Top of 4-year Rising Wedge. Sell.Copper (HG1!) eventually followed the bearish break-out signal we gave on our last analysis (April 03, see chart below) and within 2 days it hit our 4.1250 Target: Right now the price sits at the top of the 4-year Rising Wedge pattern and on the 1W time-frame it is a textbook technical sell signal. With the 1W RSI also rejected on a Lower Highs trend-line, we are looking to aim for the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) at least. Every Bearish Leg since the July 11 2022 Low, reached at least its 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level before rebounding again. As a result, our Target is 4.700, which given a fair 3-month time-frame, should be at the time marginally below the 1W MA50, in line with all previous bottoms of the Rising Wedge. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

Copper: Event-driven Trade Idea on Recent TariffsCOMEX: Micro Copper Futures ( COMEX_MINI:MHG1! ), #microfutures The Event On July 9th, President Trump announced that he would impose a 50% tariff on imports of copper, effective August 1st. The decision was based on national security assessment. Copper is the second most used material by the U.S. Department of Defense. The President intents to use tariffs to reduce reliance on imports and shore up support for domestic production. Immediate Market Reaction U.S. copper prices ended Tuesday’s session over 13% higher — the sharpest single-day gain since 1989. The September COMEX copper futures contract was settled at $5.584 a pound on Friday, up 35.7% year-to-date. Due to tariffs, Copper in the U.S. is priced at a large premium over international markets. • UK: LME copper contract was quoted at $9,660.5 per ton on Friday. • China: SHFE coper futures was settled at RMB 78,420 per ton. It can be converted to $10,959.4 via the Dollar/RMB exchange rate of 7.1555. • US: COMEX copper quote of $5.584 can be converted to $12,312.7 per ton. • As of Friday, COMEX copper is priced at a 27.5% premium over LME copper, and a 12.3% premium over SHFE copper. The U.S. Copper Market The U.S. Geological Survey reports that the 2024 total refined copper consumption was 1.8 million metric tons. Of which, 850,000 tons were from mining, 150,000 tons were refined from scrap, and 810,000 tons from imports. Chile is the biggest source of U.S. copper imports, accounting for 581,000 tons, or 71.7% of total imports. Canada is the second largest, for 169,000 tons, or 20.9%. Copper is a widely used base metal, found in products ranging from machinery, electronics, household goods, housing, infrastructure projects, to aircraft and missiles. Since President Trump announced a probe into copper in February, traders have been poised for a hike on copper duties, leading to major shifts in inventories away from Europe and Asia and into the U.S. The Next Event: Will the Copper Tariffs get postponed or reduced? The goal to increase domestic production of copper is very challenging. It will take years to ramp up and decades to fully meet demand — at a massive upfront investment cost. Hiking the import duties would not help national security. It could not change the fact that the biggest copper mines are in Chile, Peru and Canada. A sharp increase in the cost of copper will quickly translate into wide-ranging inflation in the U.S. In my opinion, once the Trump administration realizes the full impacts, we could possibly see a crawl-back from the intended copper tariffs. The effective date would be postponed, the tariff rate could be reduced, and many companies may get exemption/waiver. We have seen similar maneuvers happening multiple times in the past few months. Overall, the actual impact of copper tariffs will be much smaller than the original announcement. Shorting COMEX Copper Futures Historically, the price difference between COMEX and LME coppers has been near-zero and was around the $150 level in 2024. Since February, COMEX copper has been trading at $500-$1,500 premium over LME. As of Friday, COMEX copper futures have gone up 35% this year and are now priced at $2,652 per ton above LME copper. In my opinion, these price differences reflect no economic fundamentals. It is purely due to the ever-changing global tariff conflict. If President Trump rescinds his tariff narratives, we could likely see a large drop in COMEX copper prices. A trader sharing this view could explore shorting the COMEX Micro copper ( GETTEX:MHG ). Last Friday, the September micro copper futures contract (MHGU5) was settled at 5.5910. Each contract has a notional value of 2,500 pounds of high-grade copper, or a market value of $13,977.5. To buy or sell 1 contract, a trader is required to post an initial margin of $1,100. The margining requirement reflects a built-in leverage of 12.7-to-1. Let’s use a hypothetical trade to illustrate how to use a short futures position to take advantage a potential reduction on copper tariffs. Hypothetical Trade: • Short 1 MHGU5 contract at 5.5910, and set a stop loss at 6.00 • Trader pays $1,100 for initial margin Scenario 1: Tariffs go into effect, copper rises to $6.57 • Futures reflect a 50% premium over current LME copper price, which is at $4.38 per pound • Short order stop loss at 6.00, and the maximum loss is $1,022.5 (= (6-5.591) x 2500) • The trader loses most of the margining fund, but owes no more Scenario 2: Trump Rescinds Tariffs, Copper falls to $4.38 • COMEX copper will be priced at No premium over LME • Short position gains: $3,027.5 (= (5.591-4.38) x 2500) • The hypothetical return will be 275.2% (= 3027.5 / 1100) The above scenarios show that • When copper falls, short position will have higher returns due to its leverage nature. • When copper rises, the stoploss will kick in to set maximum losses. The above trade idea could be deployed using the standard-size Copper Futures contract. Its notional value is 25,000 tons, which is 10 times bigger than that of the micro contract. The initial margin is $11,000. The standard-size contract is more liquid. On Friday, it had a total volume of 60,313 contracts, and an open interest of 221,682. Happy Trading.

Tariffs Ignite a Copper FrenzyCOMEX copper has surged to a record premium over London Metal Exchange (LME) copper over the past few weeks, reflecting a lucrative arbitrage as traders rush metal into the U.S. ahead of looming import tariffs. President Donald Trump’s announcement of a 50% tariff on U.S. copper imports (effective August 1, 2025) has dramatically disrupted the global copper market. U.S. futures are now trading at a significant premium of $2,600 per metric ton over LME prices, pulling physical copper into the US from around the world. As a result, inventories have ballooned in U.S. warehouses while declining sharply elsewhere. COMEX (CME) stockpiles have surged to exceed the combined copper inventories of LME and SHFE (Shanghai), indicating massive stockpiling in the U.S. Correspondingly, LME warehouse stocks have fallen to multi-year lows, fuelling a steep backwardation (near-term prices trading above far-dated futures) as available supply in London shrinks. LME–tracked inventories have declined by roughly 60% so far in 2025. Source: Bloomberg This tariff-induced distortion is also evident in trade flows. Analysts estimate the U.S. imported around 881,000 tons of copper in the first half of 2025, roughly double its underlying consumption, as buyers rushed to secure cheaper metal before tariffs hit. Once the tariff is implemented and these stockpiles start being utilised, U.S. imports are expected to plunge and weigh on global copper prices later this year. Going forward, clarity on the tariff’s scope regarding any exemptions for key suppliers like Chile or Canada will determine if COMEX Copper sustains a large premium. CHINA'S PIVOT FROM HOARDING TO DRAINING While the U.S. has been hoarding copper, demand in China, the world’s largest consumer, presents a mixed picture. On the one hand, China’s property construction sector remains sluggish, and manufacturing activity has only tentatively improved. Earlier in the year, Chinese copper inventories surged to multi-year highs; an unusual build likely driven by weak consumption and precautionary stockpiling. However, this trend has since reversed sharply. Chinese copper stockpiles peaked around 377,000 mt in March before plunging to 126,000 mt by end-June. This drawdown suggests that, despite macroeconomic headwinds, China’s copper usage remained resilient. Grid companies and manufacturers continued buying copper at high levels, even as consumer sectors slowed. Source: Crux Investor Copper demand in China is coming from strategic industries: State Grid investment soared nearly 20% YoY until May 2025, and manufacturing of electric vehicles and appliances remains a bright spot. Owing to reduced demand in construction, though, the net effect for near-term demand remains somewhat on the softer side, but it is still far from collapsing. Any further government stimulus for infrastructure or housing in H2 2025 could quickly translate into a bump in copper demand, given the low inventories now in China. LONGER-TERM UPSIDE THROUGH SUPPLY CHALLENGES Beyond the immediate cross-currents, the medium-to-long-term outlook for copper is fundamentally bullish, owing to the significant constraints on the supply side. Many of the world’s largest copper mines are ageing, with declining ore grades and operational challenges. In Chile (the top copper-producing country), Codelco’s output hit a 25-year low in 2023 amid falling grades and project delays. The state-owned giant is striving to boost production in 2025, but first-quarter 2025 output was essentially flat (+0.3% YoY), and was hampered by unforeseen disruptions like heavy rains and a nationwide power blackout. Similarly, Anglo American, another major producer, has warned of lower production. Anglo expects its copper output to drop to 690–750 thousand tons in 2025, down from 773k in 2024, due to lower ore grades and water restrictions at its Chilean operations. Due to the massive wedge between demand and supply dynamics, analysts have predicted the copper market to slip into a substantial deficit next year, even sans tariffs. The recent tariff saga, creating all the noise, would exacerbate near-term tightness, and would lead to U.S. consumers drawing down global supply. This sets the stage for sharper shortages later. Supply from recycling is also expected to take a hit due to the trade friction between China and US. Source: Bloomberg In response to the tariffs, China could cut back imports of US scrap copper. This would, in effect, reduce China's exports of refined copper, with less refined copper entering the global supply consequently. This further strengthens the case for prolonged upward price pressure. HYPOTHETICAL TRADE SET-UP: For investors, the divergent short- and long-term forces in copper open several strategy avenues. In the very near term, prices may remain volatile or even pull back once U.S. imports pause, with others having increased access to the metal. However, any such dip would present a buying opportunity given copper’s strong fundamentals. A straightforward bullish strategy is to establish a long position in copper futures, taking advantage of any weakness. For example, one could go long the CME Copper futures (March 2026 expiry) to express a positive view on copper into next year. Source: CME QuikStrike Open interest for this contract lies just under 30,000, with volume as on 11/Jul clocking 3095. The hypothesis is that after a period of consolidation, copper prices will resume an uptrend as the market shifts focus from temporary inventory builds to the looming supply deficit. Indeed, the term structure is also signalling tighter conditions down the line; while nearby copper prices spiked on the tariff news, longer-dated futures have also firmed as traders anticipate future scarcity. Source: CME QuikStrike With that in mind, a possible trade setup is outlined below: ● Entry: $5.68 per pound ● Target: $6.20 per pound ● Stop Loss: $5.37 per pound ● Profit at Target: $13,000 ((6.20 – 5.68) = 0.52 x 25,000 pounds/contract) ● Loss at Stop: $ 7,750 ((5.37 – 5.68) = -0.31 x 25,000 pounds/contract) ● Reward-to-Risk: 1.7x The same view can also be expressed through CME Micro Copper futures, which offer smaller notional positions and more flexibility. Each Micro contract is priced in USD per pound and represents 2,500 pounds of copper, compared to 25,000 pounds for the standard contract. As history shows, the “electrifying metal” tends to reward those who can weather short-term volatility in pursuit of its long-term uptrend.

Copper looking good an upmoveKey Observations Channel Pattern & Elliott Wave Count: Price action is moving within a well-defined upward-sloping channel (yellow lines). An Elliott Wave structure is marked (① to ⑤). The price just completed wave ④, suggesting the next move may attempt to form wave ⑤ towards the upper channel boundary, targeting roughly the 920 level. Price Support & Resistance: Support: The lower channel boundary, recently tested during the wave ④ dip (~880 area), acts as a dynamic support. Resistance: The upper channel line, which coincides with the projected wave ⑤, serves as resistance near 920. RSI & Momentum: The Relative Strength Index (RSI) at the bottom oscillates between 43.81 (current), with a recent bounce upward. The yellow MA of RSI is at 57.07, showing the RSI is crossing its MA from below, which is typically a bullish signal. RSI is neither overbought nor oversold, offering room for upward movement if momentum sustains. Trend Context: The overall trend is upward within the channel. Recent price action after the wave ④ low suggests a renewed attempt at bullish momentum. Summary & Implications: The chart implies a bullish bias as long as the lower channel (support) holds. There is a technical setup for a move toward the upper trendline and wave ⑤ target (~920). Watch for price reactions near the lower channel support—if broken, it would invalidate the immediate bullish thesis. RSI is supportive of further upside, but needs confirmation from increasing volume and a sustained move above the 890 mark.

MR. COPPER GOES FUN. WITH DONALD TRUMP — IT IS A BULL RUNCopper prices in 2025 are up about 27 percent year-to-date, driven by a complex interplay of technical and fundamental factors, with geopolitical events such as the Trump administration's tariff policies and the escalation of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East having a significant impact. Fundamental Outlook: The main driver of copper prices in 2025 is the ongoing global surge in demand driven by the transition to clean energy. Copper is essential for electric vehicles (EVs), renewable energy infrastructure, and grid upgrades, all of which require extensive use of copper due to its superior electrical conductivity. For example, EVs use about 2-4 times more copper than traditional vehicles, and renewable installations such as wind turbines contain several tons of copper each. This structural growth in demand underpins the optimistic outlook for copper in the medium to long term. On the supply side, however, copper production is growing. The International Copper Study Group (ICSG) forecasts a global copper surplus of 289,000 tonnes in 2025, more than double the 2024 surplus. This surplus is driven by rising production, particularly from new or expanded operations in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mongolia, Russia and elsewhere. Capacity increases in these regions, coupled with smelter growth, could contribute to a supply glut despite strong demand. Conversely, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East could disrupt bauxite and alumina supply chains, a region that is a strategically important supplier of raw materials. Impact of Trump Tariffs: The Trump administration’s threats and actions to impose tariffs on U.S. copper imports have added volatility and complexity to the market. The tariff announcement triggered a sharp sell-off in early April 2025 as concerns about the impact on US manufactured demand and global trade flows grew. London Metal Exchange (LME) copper prices fell to one-month lows following China’s retaliatory tariffs, before partially recovering after some tariff exemptions and reductions were announced. The tariffs also distorted physical supply chains. Traders rushed to deliver copper to the US ahead of the tariffs, reducing copper availability in other regions such as China. This arbitrage resulted in a significant widening of the price differential between US CME copper contracts and LME copper prices, with US prices trading at a premium of over 10% to London. This premium reflects the tariff risk embedded in the US copper price and expectations of temporary domestic market tensions. Technical Outlook: Technically, copper prices have shown resilience despite the tariff shocks. Copper prices sold off after peaking in late March 2025 before the tariffs were announced, but have since begun to recover. Long-term trendlines and moving averages remain supportive, with the 100-week and 200-week moving averages trending higher and forming a bullish crossover earlier in the year. Long-term copper prices are once again attacking the 18-year resistance around $4.50/lb ($10/kg) that capped the upside in 2008 and again in the 2010s and first half of the 2020s, with a 1.5x rally in the next 1 to 3 years. The technical main chart of the COMEX December 2025 copper futures contract COMEX:HGZ2025 points to the possibility of an upside move, all the way to the $7 mark (around $15/kg) as early as H2 2025. Conclusion Going forward, copper prices are expected to remain volatile but supported by long-term structural demand growth, with the impact of tariffs likely to cause episodic disruptions rather than a sustained suppression of increasingly hot prices. -- Best wishes, @PandorraResearch Team😎

Copper Cup & Handle Formation - Confirmed by Half-Yearly CloseIn a recent interview, Kevin Warsh, a former Member of Board of Governors Federal Reserve said: “External shocks like wars, pandemics, and supply chain disruptions may cause a spike in prices, that's not inflation. That's more like the weather. Inflation's more like the climate. Weather refers to the day-to-day state of the atmosphere. A storm may come, but it will eventually pass. Climate is the long-term average of weather patterns, typically measured over 30 years or more. If the underlying causes of climate change are not addressed, they are likely to affect future weather — for example, storms may become more unpredictable, occur more frequently, and intensify when they happen. Going back to the financial markets. Have we address the underlying causes of inflation climate today? If not, then with every war or rumors of war or tariff or any unwelcome surprises. They are likely to become even more volatile than before, some more bullish and the others more bearish. What is the real cause of inflation climate the world is facing? Debt. At every pit stop, I will keep checking if there’s any chance that U.S. debt might start trending downward. If it does, my existing strategies would have to change. But for now, I’m maintaining these strategies. Here are some examples: With fears of inflation still in sight, stocks have become more volatile. Since inflation hit a high of 9% in 2022, we’ve seen stock market swings widen. With fears of inflation, bonds are under pressure. The drop in U.S. bonds wasn't triggered by the “Liberation Day” tariff announced on 2nd April alone. In fact, bonds peaked in 2020 and broke below their main uptrend support when inflation hit 9%. With fears of inflation are also driving commodities higher — from “weather” to “weather,” so to speak. I’ve been covering gold, bitcoin, silver, and soybean oil. Today, copper looks interesting to me. Let’s dive into the technical. I find the half-year chart particularly interesting. On this half yearly chart. We can see as the close on 30th June, copper settled firmly, closed above its $4.44 resistance that has been tested for years. This study indicates that copper could be at the beginning of an uptrend. I will be looking out for buying-on-dips opportunities whenever they arise. What Began Well, Grew Risky — Yet Opportunity Awaits. Besides debt, there are two other key elements that may trigger fears of inflation from time to time. What do you think they are? I would like to hear your thoughts on this.

Price correction and re-increase in copper prices1.Growing Global Demand: Rising infrastructure projects and renewable energy initiatives (like EVs and energy storage systems) are boosting copper demand. 2.Supply Constraints: Declining reserves in major mines, production disruptions in key producers (e.g., Chile, Peru), and limited new investments are tightening supply. 3.Weaker USD: If the Fed cuts interest rates, a weaker US dollar (as copper is dollar-denominated) could push prices higher. 4.China’s Recovery: Economic stimulus in China (the world’s top copper consumer) is expected to drive stronger demand. 5.Inflation Hedge: Copper is seen as a hedge against inflation, attracting more investor inflows if global inflation persists. Strong demand, tight supply, and supportive macro trends could drive copper prices upward in the coming months. Sasha Charkhchian

Long Setup: Micro Copper Futures (Jul 2025)While U.S. equity markets are closed in observance of Juneteenth, traders in the futures markets still have opportunities to position ahead of broader market moves. One such opportunity is forming in Micro Copper Futures (MHGN2025), which continues to consolidate in a tight range near key technical levels. The current structure suggests a potential breakout to the upside with a favorable risk-reward setup. Technically, price action remains compressed between approximately 4.70 and 4.90, coiling just above the Ichimoku Cloud and holding support above the mid-April range. This zone has acted as a critical demand area multiple times since April, and the market has rejected any meaningful downside continuation, signaling underlying strength. A long position is being considered based on the following: Entry Zone: Around 4.81, above the flat Kijun-sen and within the current range high. Stop Level: Set at 4.7080, just below the support band and Ichimoku base, providing technical invalidation if broken. Target: 5.10, aligning with previous resistance and psychological round number. This would complete a 6.8% upside move from current levels. Risk/Reward Ratio: 2.64, indicating strong asymmetry favoring the long bias. The MACD histogram remains positive despite flattening out in recent sessions, while the signal line crossover earlier in June continues to support the bullish case. Although momentum has paused, it has not turned negative, which may point to a consolidation phase before the next leg. The broader copper narrative also lends support to this setup. With persistent demand from renewable infrastructure, data centers, and EVs, copper remains a fundamentally supported commodity despite near-term volatility driven by macro factors and central bank policy. Any fresh economic stimulus out of China or signs of rate stabilization globally could provide the catalyst for a bullish breakout in base metals. Traders should monitor volume and any breakout beyond the 4.89–4.90 zone, which could trigger further buying. A daily close above 4.90 on increased volume would confirm the breakout and improve the probability of reaching the 5.10 target. While today’s market holiday may reduce liquidity temporarily, it also offers a less crowded environment for early positioning. As always, risk management is paramount, and trade sizing should reflect the volatility and leverage of commodity futures. This setup remains active and will be reassessed if price fails to hold above the key support zone or if macroeconomic conditions materially shift in the near term.

Copper Nears Annual HighCopper Nears Annual High, Driven by Trade Optimism and Falling Inventories By Ion Jauregui – ActivTrades Analyst The copper market is once again in the spotlight. The metal is currently trading at around USD 9,756 per tonne on COMEX futures at the London Metal Exchange (LME), approaching its annual high reached at the end of March, near USD 10,000. This rally is supported by a combination of macroeconomic drivers and market-specific factors. China–U.S. Dialogue Boosts Demand Outlook One of the key catalysts behind this upward move has been the recent diplomatic thaw between China and the United States, which has improved the global trade climate. Trade negotiations held in London have renewed optimism about global economic growth, which naturally strengthens the projected demand for industrial metals like copper—widely used in construction, energy, and technology sectors. LME Inventories at Lows Add Upward Pressure Adding to this context is a significant decline in inventories recorded at the LME. This drawdown reflects both an increase in physical consumption and speculative positioning amid potential new tariff policies that could follow the current trade truce. This relative scarcity in physical supply has become another driver of price gains. Technical Analysis of Copper (USD/lb) As of early trading hours, copper is quoted at approximately USD 476.5 per pound, according to ActivTrades data. The asset has shown strong upward momentum from July 2023 through May 2024, with a brief correction down to USD 399.70, a key technical support level for the ongoing rally that began in mid-April. The Point of Control (POC) for volume is located around USD 467, holding above an intermediate support level at USD 449.13, reinforcing the short-term bullish structure. As for resistance levels, USD 505.32 stands out as the main ceiling to overcome. Currently, the price is fluctuating within a technical range between USD 494.22 and USD 442.61, suggesting a consolidation phase ahead of a potential breakout. Conclusion Copper remains one of the most dynamic industrial metals in today’s macroeconomic landscape. Renewed trade optimism between the world’s two largest economies, combined with a sharp drop in LME inventories, has created a solid set of fundamentals justifying the approach toward annual highs. Technically, the bullish structure remains intact as long as key support levels hold, and a sustained close above USD 494/lb could pave the way for fresh short-term highs. In this context, copper not only reflects the pulse of global industry but also embodies the economic growth expectations in a time of geopolitical and energy transition. ******************************************************************************************* The information provided does not constitute investment research.

Chart Pattern Analysis Of Copper. There are 4 candles close upon the neckline of a potential bullish triangle pattern, It seems that another bull run will start here. I am expecting an accelerate motive wave to touch or break up the target line. On the other hand, If K4 couldn’t close upon K1 to verify the strong bullish momentum, It is also possible that a short-term consolidation will carry on from K1. If the following candles successfully resets the resistance, It is also a good place to buy it then. Long-875/Stop-870/Target-920 Long-881/Stop-870/Target-920

Copper to Pump soon, W formation and small cap rumblingsIf you look closely there's a beautiful W formation that has been tested numerous times and has passed. This is high time frame and inconsideration of goals massive run, market makers are going to be looking into smaller cap assets this time of year. Small cap accumulation will last about 2 years. The precious metals like copper which are akin to small caps are going to eat as well. Looks like it's going to double or triple in value notice the parallel Channel as well. Measured moves off the W show the targets.
