What changed: Added specific technical support and resistance levels (5.8790 and 6.0680) along with a new upside price target of 6.29.

Copper prices (XCU/USD) are maintaining a technical 'bullish flag' formation as markets focus on the second round of peace negotiations between the United States and Iran. Key technical levels have now been identified, with 6.0680 acting as a critical bullish breakout point and 5.8790 serving as essential support. In the event of a successful upside breakout, analysts have set the next bullish target for the industrial metal at 6.29. This momentum follows a 17% recovery from March lows, supported by a robust global manufacturing PMI of 72%. While the de-escalation of Middle East tensions has revived investor risk appetite, traders remain cautious as much of the initial optimism may already be priced into the market.
