Industrials Softening
/by Peter BrandtSome Industrials are acting soft here. For Copper, a decisive decline below 264 would complete a H&S failure pattern with a target of 235.

We should strive to only take a trade when the market set up is in our sweet spot.
We should strive to avoid trades out of our sweet spot.
