Price weakness to catalyze a large-scale CTA selling in Copper – TDS

Source Fxstreet

CTAs are selling Copper and Aluminum, TDS' Senior Commodity Strategist Daniel Ghali notes.

Trump dampens his tone with respect to tariffs on China

"CTAs are selling Copper and Aluminum, with price action playing into the significant asymmetry in expected flows following President Trump's dampened tone with respect to tariffs on China."

"With no scenario for price action over the coming week likely to attract subsequent buying programs, the weakness in prices is now sufficiently large to catalyze large-scale CTA selling activity in the red metal, with up to -25% of algos' max size likely sold this session."
