Shares of Alcoa Corp., one of the world's largest aluminum producers, are trading at 33.00.

On the daily chart, the price is holding within the global downtrend, again approaching the annual lows around 32.00.

On the four-hour chart, after several unsuccessful attempts to test the level of 32.00, the quotes formed a local Triangle pattern with dynamically narrowing boundaries at 36.00–32.40, in case of which the downward dynamics may increase to the level of 27.00.

Technical indicators maintain an unclear sell signal: the range of fluctuations of the EMA on the Alligator indicator remains narrowed, and the histogram of the AO oscillator, being in the sell zone, continues to form corrective bars.
