The JJC is a Tracking ETN for Copper. IF (a Big IF there) $COPPER closes below this trend line, this would be significant. We like Dr. $COPPER as an economic indicator. 

JJC 20140303

We have seen the trend weaken recently. The dotted blue line was also a potential support line with two dips through it( late July, Early February). With this third push, it would appear the solid blue line is more meaningful now.

Horizontal Support is at $38.50 on the chart which is where we are trading today. I don't like the negative cross on the MACD below zero.

Good trading,

Greg Schnell, CMT
