Given that copper prices have climbed to an almost all time high as well as the past positive and negative correlations, a long is still profitable. However, a short where you buy and sell until 1st quarter of 2018 has a much better potential for gains. Also looking at the bollinger bands, this is still profitable but not as profitable as other things you could invest in. This is more of an overall conservative strategy to make some returns but not ones that are significant.
