what happened

LME aluminium (MAL3=LX) could rebound into the $3,100-$3,149 per metric ton range this week, Reuters reports, as prices stabilize near support at $3,021.

The previous support at $3,100 — the 138.2% projection level of the downtrend from $3,563 — produced a moderate bounce. The current support appears stronger and may trigger a more substantial recovery, reinforced by $3,040, the July 2 low.

A break below $3,021 could clear the way toward $2,939-$2,973. The analysis is published weekly on Mondays. It was written by Wang Tao, a Reuters market analyst covering commodity and energy technicals, and reflects his own views.
