Prices of the pound of the base metal rose to new multi-week highs on Monday, meeting strong hurdle in the $2.38 region, coincident with the 55-day SMA. However, declining open interest could undermine further gains, prompting instead a correction lower to, potentially, last week’s low around $2.15.
