Shanghai copper may drop to 47,050 yuan

28 Oct, 2014

SINGAPORE: Shanghai copper third-month may drop to 47,050 yuan per tonne, as it faces a resistance at 47,520 yuan.

The resistance is provided by the 23.6 percent Fibonacci retracement on the fall from the July 4 high of 51,580 yuan to the Oct. 17 low of 46,270 yuan. This barrier caused a drop towards the 14.6 percent level at 47,050 yuan on Oct. 27 and may trigger another one.

A rise to 47,640 yuan may signal a break above the 47,520 yuan and the 38.2 percent retracement at 48,300 yuan will be targeted.
