Copper: Is it getting ready for an advance towards 414?

Copper has been witnessing a long term down trend since August 2013 and closed at 333.50 yesterday. Provided is weekly chart in which correction from top of 512.65 took place in a channelized manner and this metal found support near 291 whereas 284.10 was the swing low posted in 2010. Most recently copper recovered from 298.05 which is 88.8% Fibonacci correction of bullish swing AB. Swing AB itself is 61.8% correction of bearish swing XA. Fibonacci relationship between these swings hints possibilities of a harmonic structure that can be either Bearish Gartley or Bearish Crab. In case if pattern unfolds as bearish Gartley then current rally is likely to be terminated from 358 zones after completing leg CD of this structure. Presence of descending trend line resistance near 358 also increases significance of this structure. In case if pattern unfolds as bearish Crab then an advance to complete leg ‘CD’, which is 161.8% extension of leg ‘XA’, can’t be ruled out. And this extended rally will take this metal towards 414 zones.
Areas of 332 have been very crucial role since start of 2015. Once again this metal has climbed above this level and further stability above same will strengthen our bullish expectations in this metal. Any failure and stability below 317 might hurt bullish sentiments but failure of this setup will be confirmed if most recent swing low 298.05 is taken out. Areas of 326-320 can be used for accumulation for a primary rally towards 358 and then 414 zones.  Areas of 315 can be used as protective stop loss for your long trade.

Nifty Struggles Near 24,500: Key Resistance and Support Levels to Watch

  Nifty Update (CMP: 24,439) After a strong opening rally, Nifty hit a high of 24,589 but then faced sharp selling pressure, dropping to a low of 24,305. It is currently hovering near the 24,400 zone, which has acted as a recent consolidation area. Technical Outlook: As long as Nifty holds above 24,300, there remains potential for an upward move toward the 24,700–24,800 levels. However, the 24,850 zone is expected to act as a strong resistance, with possible selling pressure near that area. Immediate support lies at 24,305, followed by 24,190. A break below 24,190 may negate the bullish momentum created by today’s early rally. Options Data Analysis: Call Side: 24,500 CE has the highest open interest (OI) at 80.52 lakh contracts with 9.58 crore volume and 54.5 lakh OI addition, indicating strong resistance. 25,600 CE also saw significant activity with 8.13 crore volume and 46.93 lakh OI addition.

Nifty Struggles at 24800: What Options Data Tells Us About Market Direction

  Nifty settled at 24,578 , down by 1.39% on Tuesday. The index failed to attract follow-up buying above 24,800 , which acted as a strong resistance zone (as highlighted in our previous write-up dated May 2, 2025 ). It eventually closed well below this level, indicating the presence of selling interest near key resistance. Technical Overview: Nifty successfully tested the resistance zone of 24,800 and subsequently formed a bearish Harami pattern on the daily chart. This pattern coincides with a recent swing top and occurred near a resistance zone, thereby strengthening its technical significance. A large trading range was observed on Monday, May 12, 2025 , which suggests the possibility of a sideways move in the coming sessions. Despite the recent pullback, the intermediate trend remains bullish as the price is still holding above the 9 and 21 DEMA levels. Moreover, the 9 DEMA is placed above the 21 DEMA , confirming the uptrend. Key support is now seen in the 24,100–24,000...
