A two to three week look hints at a developing bull market with prices rising toward prosperity next year.

Copper Range is highlighted as a strong speculative play with potential to reach 100, advised by Heath and linked to figures around 62 to 68 for selling while watching 72 to 75 for repurchase aiming at 95.
