Copper breakout or fakeout?

Fakeout’d be my guess. Not sure what changed to make Copper behave since April like a Vancouver penny stock or a small pharmaceuticals mfg with an Alzheimer’s drug in trials.

QQQ will ripen for tightly stopped bottom-fishing at 590.63, my minimum downside target at the moment. However, a decisive breach could portend more slippage to as low as 578.39.

Dec Gold, currently around 3765, is headed down to 3741.10, small chance of bounce/bottom at 3762.00

MSFT’s failure to hold 508.00 is bearish.

GDXJ, currently around 72.46, is close to minor but compelling HP support at 71.78.

Bitcoin has been going perversely countertrend so often that perhaps it’s in the grip of the same nitwits/thieves who are animating Copper?

AAPL, tied with Disney for America’s least innovative large company, was close to a new record high before this correction hit. If it doesn’t turn from 249.65, that would imply more slippage to as low as 241.97.

TSLA, a lifetime buy-and-hold, has stalled precisely at p2=444.16 of D=520.79. (daily bars, A=182.00 on 8/5/24).
