The first movement downwards from the high on the 13th of February to the low of the 23rd of February was choppy and overlapping and came on overall declining volume. The market fell of its own weight.
The bounce up to the 1st of March came with some increase in volume. The volume profile looks slightly bullish up to this point, but not strongly.
The fall to the last low on the 9th of March came with increasing volume. This looks clearly bearish.
The next bounce to the high of the 20th of March came with clearly declining volume. This looks like a counter trend movement within a new downwards trend.
ADX has not yet indicated a downwards trend. It is below 15 although it is rising slightly today and the -DX line is above the +DX line.
Contracting Bollinger Bands and declining ATR suggest the market is not yet trending.
The most bearish part of this chart is the recent volume profile. Other indicators suggest caution for short positions.
Copper may be in the very early stages of a new downwards trend. The green trend line goes back to August 2011 and has recently provided resistance. A!er price breached the lower edge of the lilac line, it then turned up to find resistance at that line for a typical throwback. The gold channel is a base channel about minor waves 1 and 2. The upper edge has provided resistance for another second wave correction. The lower edge may now be providing some support. If this Elliott wave count is correct, then Copper should break below support at the lower edge of this channel. It may then turn upwards for a test of resistance before moving down and away.
