Silver already made its move in late 2025 and early 2026, ripping into a parabolic breakout after months of quiet accumulation. Now, analyst Bluntz is warning that copper may be setting up for the same kind of surprise rally.
In his latest chart comparison, Bluntz snows
a familiar pattern: a long, grinding upward channel that looks boring for years… until it suddenly isn’t. With silver already proving the playbook works, copper could be next in line.
Bluntz is basically saying: the “boring” rising channel is the accumulation, and the breakout is the part that moves so fast that late buyers don’t get clean entries. The chart pairing makes sense because both metals show the same multi-year grind, then the same kind of “release valve” move once price clears the top boundary.
The key question now isn’t “is copper bullish?” — it’s where the trigger levels sit, and what kind of move becomes realistic if the breakout confirms.
What Silver’s Breakout Looked Like (and why it matters)
On the silver chart, the rising channel lasted ~3 years (Bluntz marks ~1,135 days). The breakout happened when silver cleared the upper channel band in the low/mid-$30s (roughly that $30–$35 region on the chart), then it stopped acting like a “slow trend” and started acting like a momentum market.
From that breakout zone, silver eventually ripped into the $115-120 spike area before pulling back; that’s a move of roughly 3x–4x from the breakout region, and the steepest part of the run happened in a relatively short window once the channel was left behind.
That’s the whole point of his “6 months early vs 1 day late” line: once price breaks and holds above the channel, the market often front-runs the next leg and doesn’t offer those neat pullbacks everyone waits for.
Copper Levels to Watch if the “Silver Playbook” Repeats
Copper is currently around $5.73 on your chart, still hovering near the upper channel boundary. That makes the next few levels pretty straightforward:
Support levels (where the structure stays alive):
- $5.55–$5.60: first area to hold on dips (recent consolidation zone)
- $5.20–$5.30: deeper support if the current push fails and price resets inside the channel
- ~$5.00: psychological + “don’t lose this” line if selling accelerates
Resistance / breakout trigger levels:
- $5.95–$6.10: first “breakout test” zone (round number + local highs)
- ~$6.20–$6.40: the real confirmation band (this is where it starts to look like a clean channel escape, not just another wick)
If the breakout confirms:
Bluntz’s claim is “it will double fast.” From ~$5.7, a clean doubling implies ~$11–$12 as a logical headline target after confirmation. That would also mirror silver’s behavior: long grind → break → acceleration leg that ignores “fair value” for a while.
