Am I the only trader on the planet getting whipped around in copper futures? I am out now, too frustrating.

Hmmmm, sounds like a trend is in the works to me.
It has the telltale look of a damped harmonic oscillator.

I'm not predicting mind you, I'm not very good at it.
I just find that trends tend to start right after people give up on a particular market.

I am also short Lumber right now, made some $$$ on it, both the chart and the fundamentals (housing bubble, interest rate hikes, increased foreclosures, etc) put me in Lumber.
Waiting on OPEC sanctions on Iran, that plus the chart will put me back in CL futures.
