Gold/Copper Signaling Recession & Market Super bubble!We're continuing to see extreme signals from Gold, and that should raise concerns. Earlier, I highlighted the Gold/Oil ratio — now, I want to draw your attention to the Gold/Copper ratio: 🔗 Historically, such extreme readings in the Gold/Copper ratio have consistently preceded recessions. The only exception? A period of economic stagnation and sideways markets — not exactly a bullish outcome. See the chart from 2014 to 2016 🔗 www.tradingview.com Quick recap: Gold = Fear + Inflation hedge Copper = Economic strength + Inflation signal Oil = Similar to Copper; reflects growth and inflation expectations These divergences aren't random — they’re warning signs of a recession & market Super Bubble that's about to POP! These are not random fluctuations of prices. You can choose to view them as such. I get it. But from a macroeconomic perspective, this is bad JUJU!

Copper breaks outNice breakout from a triangle continuation pattern in copper prices today. It looks like the metal has found a good base around $5.000 now and after a few days trying to test waters below this level, where the bears failed to exert pressure, prices have now broken higher. Good sign about global growth, apparently. We have seen stronger Chinse data this week. Can we now see a push towards the range highs again? Key levels to watch shown on the chart.

COPPER - Following Gold?Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst. 📈 COPPER has been overall bullish, trading inside the rising wedge pattern in blue. At present, COPPER is undergoing a correction phase and it is hovering around the lower bound of the wedge. Moreover, it is retesting a massive support zone marked in green. 🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of the green support and lower blue trendline acting as a non-horizontal support. 📚 As per my trading style: As #COPPER approaches the blue circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...) 📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management. Good luck! All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly! ~Rich

Copper (HG1) Market Watch Simple & Clear!Copper’s looking strong right now 💪 and it might be setting up for a big move. Here’s the key level I’m watching: 📈 If copper breaks and closes above 5.41, that could open the door for a run all the way up to 7.13. That’s a big potential move but only if we hold strong above that breakout level. 💡 Right now, it’s all about confirmation ; a clean close above 5.41 could shift the trend in a big way. Want to see the chart setup I’m using and how I’m planning around that 5.41 breakout? 💬 DM me “COPPER” and I’ll send you the exact breakdown directly. 🚀 Mindbloome Exchange Trade Smarter Live Better

XCU/USD: Will This Demand Zone Hold for Bulls?🎯 XCU/USD: The Great Copper Heist Strategy | Multi-Layer Entry Setup 💰 📊 Asset Analysis Copper vs U.S. Dollar (XCU/USD) - Metals Market Strategy Type: Swing/Day Trade Hybrid Market Bias: 🐂 BULLISH CONFIRMATION 🔍 Technical Setup Overview The setup shows bullish confirmation with triangular moving averages converging in a demand zone - a classic institutional accumulation pattern. We're seeing strong support structure forming, making this an attractive risk-reward opportunity for multi-layer entries. 🎯 The "Layered Entry" Strategy Explained This isn't your typical single-entry approach. We're using a multi-limit order layering strategy (what I call the "strategic accumulation method") to build positions gradually: 📍 Suggested Layer Entry Levels: Layer 1️⃣: $4.9000 Layer 2️⃣: $4.9500 Layer 3️⃣: $5.0000 Layer 4️⃣: $5.0500 Layer 5️⃣: $5.1000 💡 Pro Tip: You can add more layers or adjust based on your account size and risk tolerance. The beauty of layering? You average into the position as price dips, reducing overall entry cost. 🛡️ Risk Management 🚨 Stop Loss: Below $4.8000 This level invalidates the bullish structure and protects capital if the setup fails. ⚠️ Important Disclaimer: The stop loss mentioned is based on this specific analysis. You should always determine your own risk parameters based on your account size, risk tolerance, and trading plan. Take profits at YOUR comfort level - your risk, your rules! 🎲 🎯 Profit Targets & Exit Strategy Primary Target: $5.4000 🎊 This represents a solid risk-reward ratio from our layered entries. ⚠️ Long-Term Resistance Warning: There's a major resistance zone around $28.00 (historical supply zone acting as a strong barrier + potential overbought conditions). If you're thinking ultra-long term, be aware that this level has trapped bulls before. 💰 Exit Strategy Note: The targets provided are guideline levels. Always manage your own exits based on price action, momentum, and your personal profit goals. Lock in gains when you're comfortable - trading is personal! 🔗 Related Pairs to Watch (Correlation Analysis) Keep an eye on these correlated assets to confirm the copper move: HG (Copper Futures) - Direct correlation, primary benchmark FCX (Freeport-McMoRan Inc.) - Major copper producer, equity proxy DXY (U.S. Dollar Index) - Inverse correlation; weak dollar = stronger copper CL (Crude Oil) - Industrial commodity correlation AUD/USD - Australian dollar heavily tied to copper exports CNY/USD - China is the largest copper consumer globally 💡 Key Point: If DXY weakens and AUD/USD strengthens while industrial commodities rally, this confirms the copper bullish thesis. 📈 Why This Setup Works ✅ Triangular MA convergence in demand zone = strong technical confluence ✅ Multi-layer entry reduces timing risk ✅ Clear invalidation level for risk management ✅ Favorable risk-reward ratio to first target ✅ Industrial metals showing strength in current macro environment ⚡ Final Thoughts This is a methodical approach to capturing potential upside in copper while managing downside risk through layered entries. Remember: trading is a marathon, not a sprint. Build positions strategically, manage risk religiously, and let the market come to you. 🎭 Strategy Style Disclaimer This analysis uses a creative "layered accumulation" approach for educational and entertainment purposes. All trading involves substantial risk of loss. This is not financial advice - trade at your own risk and always do your own research. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results. ⚠️📉 ✨ If you find value in my analysis, a 👍 and 🚀 boost is much appreciated — it helps me share more setups with the community! #XCU #Copper #MetalsTrading #SwingTrading #DayTrading #ForexTrading #CommodityTrading #TechnicalAnalysis #LayeredEntry #RiskManagement #BullishSetup #TradingStrategy #XCUUSD #CopperFutures #MultiLayerEntry

Analysis techniques – Copper Futures (Dec 2025)Analysis techniques – Copper Futures (Dec 2025) Date: 03/10/2025 | Timeframe: D1 | Contract Code: HGZ25 1. Trend Overview and Price Structure December copper rose slightly to 4.9610 USD/lb (+0.14%), sustaining its strong rebound from 4.49 support after a prolonged consolidation in August–September. The price has broken above short-term resistance and is approaching the psychological 5.00 mark. Medium-term structure remains bullish, targeting the key resistance zone of 5.53 – 5.90, a previous cycle high. 2. Key Technical Levels Resistance: 5.53 – 5.90 – 6.00 Support: 4.90 – 4.49 – 4.21 3. Detailed Technical Analysis Short-term trend: Breakout from the 4.49 – 4.70 base favors further upside toward 5.53. Volume: Rising on the breakout, signaling fresh inflows. Wave structure: Copper appears in a medium-term recovery wave (wave 3), with theoretical targets around 5.53 – 5.90 before a pullback. Confirmation signals: Sustained closes above 5.00 would confirm momentum; failure below 4.90 risks a retracement to 4.70 – 4.49. 4. VNC View Short term: Positive outlook as metals attract flows amid a softer USD. Medium term: Refined copper supply disruptions in South America and persistent green demand (EVs, renewables) underpin prices. Risks: Potential demand weakness from China could trigger volatility. 5. Suggested Technical Strategies Preferred Long Setup: Entry: 4.95 – 5.00 TP: 5.53 – 5.90 SL: 4.90 Probability: 65% Counter-trend Short Setup: Entry: 5.50 – 5.53 TP: 5.20 – 4.95 SL: 5.90 Probability: 40% 6.

How To Spot Stagflation?One way is by looking at the copper-to-gold ratio and the crude oil-to-gold ratio. • Gold reflects real money and investor confidence. • Copper tracks recession. • Crude oil represents inflation pressures. When real money is under threat, the economy slows, and inflation rises at the same time, we have stagflation. This is the worst-case scenario for any economy. Fortunately, we are not experiencing it yet, though the risk remains. What could trigger it? Copper Gold Ratio - A downward trend signals slower growth and potential recession. This does not mean copper prices are falling; rather, if both copper and gold are rising but copper is climbing at a slower rate than gold, the ratio will continue to trend lower. Crude Gold Ratio - As of now, the trend is still down, indicating that inflation remains under control. However, if crude oil starts moving higher, and its percentage change exceeds that of gold, the ratio will turn upward. Currently, inflation already seems to be pointing upward, and if the copper-gold ratio also rises, inflation is likely to trend higher than its current level. Video version: Therefore, stagflation = slow growth (copper-gold ratio) + high inflation (crude-gold ratio). Keep a close watch on the direction of copper and crude oil.

Copper – Gearing Up for Higher LevelsAs long as Copper continues to hold above the $4.00 handle, the structure favors continuation to the upside. A clean break of $5.00 sets the stage for a strong bullish leg, with medium-term targets around $7.40 and, eventually, the possibility of Copper extending into double digits above $10. > Key Levels: Major support: $4.00 – $4.20 zone Resistance / breakout level: $5.00 TP1: $7.39 TP2: $11.04 Beyond the chart, the future demand outlook for Copper remains extremely strong. With accelerating trends in electrification, renewable energy, EV adoption, and global infrastructure expansion, Copper is set to play a critical role in the next decade. This positions the metal as not just a strong technical play, but also a strategic long-term investment. TL;DR Copper is building momentum technically, while future demand drivers add strong tailwinds. Above $5, the path toward $7+ and potentially $10+ becomes increasingly realistic.

Zinc & Copper Correlation is very healthyZinc and copper markets are closely related because both metals are used heavily in construction, manufacturing, and electrical applications, so demand often rises and falls together with industrial activity. They’re also frequently mined from the same deposits, meaning supply-side disruptions can affect both. As a result, prices for zinc and copper tend to show a high degree of correlation, moving in similar cycles tied to global economic growth and infrastructure. Comparing the Charts (Zinc on the left on a Monhtly TF), we see that Zinc has a lot of room left to the upside. Because it's goal is to go back to balance, which is the Centerline. And because of the close correlation, I think the Chart of Copper HG1! is still OK. So, in Copper, the Centerline target is still in play.

UPDATE: Copper slow, steady and finally ready to rocketIt's been a laborious trade. Just been moving sideways slowly. But now the price is breaking above the 10,051 mark finally and the momentum is leaning towards further upside. We still have 10,677 on the cards and will continue updating accordingly. Also, you can draw a rectangle formation, for the price to break above. Then it's a whole new chart pattern.

HG - Copper Setting Up For A Long Opprtunity At Extreme📊 Fundamentals first: - Short-term: The copper market is turbulent—marked by sharp price spikes, crashes, and global shifts in stock levels. - Medium-term: Despite forecasted surpluses from ICSG, technology innovations and steady demand (especially from China and green sectors) may underpin prices. - U.S. risk factor: The tariffs remain a major wildcard, likely restructuring trade flows, increasing domestic input costs, and distorting global price differentials. 📈 Now the Chart: P5/0 at the U-MLH marked the end, and price dropped into the void. Now, at the L-MLH we see support has built up. The momentum we see now will probably lead in a pullback before the potential massive run-up to the Centerline. 💡 If the trading God gives me a pullback, I am willingly risk my 0.5% in this trade to make at least 4x more. 🦊 Happy new week to all §8-)

Ivanhoe Mines - a 50% discount opportunity !The share price of this mining monster has suffered a 50% price decline in the last 6 months. One of the main reasons for the share price decline is the suspension of underground operations at the Kakula mine due to seismic activity. This suspension has led to a withdrawal of production and cost guidance for 2025, causing investor uncertainty and a subsequent drop in share price 1,2,3 Additionally, the company has faced challenges with its smelter, including a fire that damaged onsite generators and caused a three-month delay in commissioning. These issues, combined with power constraints and grid instability in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), have contributed to a more conservative production outlook. However there are lots of positive catalysts for Ivanhoe Mines: the upcoming rise in precious metal prices, especially the wake up of the severely undervalued PLATINUM prices. Platreef PGM project in South Africa contains 7 million ounces of gold (0.25 gpt) and 50 million ounces of AuEq. About 90% of annual production (1 million ounces) will consist of PGMs (platinum group metals), making it the largest PGM mine in the world ! Platreef is expected to have low all-in production costs, though more precise figures will become available after the ramp-up phase, scheduled for the second half of 2025. Platreef PGM, Kakula-Kamoa (massive copper mine, the largest high grade mine globally) and Kipushi (a high-grade zinc operation); With all three of their mines expected to be in production, 2025 could be a pivotal year for them. Chart wise, the price is still rising in a long term rising wedge. Price just found support on the lower resistance and is bouncing strongly. OBV on balance volume is still on a steady rise. I own Ivanhoe Mines since I got in at sub 1$ (thanks to Rick Rule's reccomandation - God may bless him). and I am not willing to let go before we reach 50$, which is my long term target.

COPPER Multi-year Support held. Strong Buy Signal.Last time we had a look on Copper (HG1!) was almost 2 months ago (July 17, see chart below) and it delivered an instant return on our sell as it got rejected at the top of the Rising Wedge, quickly hitting our 4.700 Target: The price just broke above its 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) again this week after completing 5 weeks below it. With the 1W MA200 (orange trend-line) intact as Support, the multi-year Rising Wedge should now technically initiate its new Bullish Leg. Check also the 1W RSI, which just hit and rebounded on its 2-year Support Zone. We expect a new Higher High on the Rising Wedge, targeting $6.000. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

Gold Deep Dive: Cycles, Correlations, Divergences, SymmetryGold has been in a raging bull market and almost up over 100% since its monthly bullish engulfing candle. Gold sniffing out week monetary policy and rallying on the back of easing global monetary policy. Historically from a trading standpoint, Gold is extremely overbought and could be 4-8 weeks away from a considerable pullback of 15-30% . Many Signals such as symmetrical moves, Monthly overbought RSI, Copper / Gold Divergence, GDX resistance is telling us to use caution and trim long profits. It does seem like gold wants $3500 before it has a reversal back down. We are looking for a liquidity sweep of the ATH as a possible short zone. (Not FA advice) Once gold resets some indicators and allows longer term moving average to catch up it will likely keep pushing but we only for see that in mid to late 2026. If we make a new high....we don't see much upside for the next 3-6 months.

Copper testing bullish trend lineWith copper prices easing over the last few days, it has now reached a key short-term support area in the shaded region. Here a bullish trend line meets prior support/resistance range. Can we see a bounce here today? Or are we inside a bear flag pattern? Either way, we will soon find out, and then one can trade copper accordingly. We prefer the long side give a positive long-term macro backdrop for copper.
