Aluminum’s band of resistance is between $2,400 and $2,600

Business Line believes the band of resistance for aluminum, which closed at US$2,567.5 per tonne on the LME spot on Friday, is between $2,400 and $2,600:

As long as the metal hovers above 1,900, the uptrend stays in place. Strong close above 2,600 can lift the base metal higher to 2,800 and then to 3,150-3,200 range in the long-term. On the downside, tumble below 1,900 will drag LME Aluminum spot to 1,700, and then 1,500.

Business Line believes that the base metal should be supported in the long-term by the global recovery and revival in demand.
