15 Oct, 2014

SINGAPORE: Shanghai copper is expected to drop to 47,960 yuan per tonne, as it has broken a support at 48,270 yuan.

The support was provided by the 50 percent Fibonacci retracement on the fall from 49,580 yuan to 46,950 yuan, respectively the close price on Sept. 17 and the Oct. 10 low, both on hourly charts.

The next support will be at 47,960 yuan, the 38.2 percent retracement. The rebound from 46,950 yuan has completed around 48,580 yuan, the 61.8 percent retracement, as it could be well divided into three small waves.
