LONDON (DOW JONES)--COPPER FINISHED THURSDAY'S OFFICIAL TRADING SESSION ON THE LONDON METAL EXCHANGE $18 A METRIC TON DOWN ON WEDNESDAY'S CLOSE, BUT TRADERS SAID PRICES WERE PICKING UP AND COULD BE EXPECTED TO PUSH FOR THE $1,800 LEVEL BEFORE THURSDAY'S CLOSE. THE OTHER METALS WERE SAID TO BE LOOKING TO COPPER FOR DIRECTION AND WERE FOLLOWING THE RED METAL'S TREND BUT SOME SHOWED HEAVY LOSSES ON WEDNESDAY'S CLOSE. NICKEL SHED $75 TO REGISTER AN OFFICIAL PRICE OF $5,417.50 WHILE TIN LOST $115 TO $5,357.50. (LME THREE-MONTH OFFICIAL PRICES IN DOLLARS A METRIC TON, WITH PREVIOUS OFFICIAL CLOSE IN PARENTHESES.

COPPER 1,775.50 (1,793.50) ZINC 1,043.50 (1,046.25) ALUMINUM 1,463.75 (1,477.50) TIN 5,357.50 (5,472.50) NICKEL 5,417,50 (5,492.50) LEAD 547,50 (549.50) NYMEX MAY COPPER 81.55 (80.55) "THE LME IS LETHARGIC AND MORIBUND, THERE IS NO FUNDAMENTAL NEWS TO DRIVE PRICES UP. COPPER IS DESPERATE TO GET THROUGH THE $1,800 MARK BUT THERE IS HUGE OVERHEAD RESISTANCE. IF WE CAN GET THROUGH THE HIGH OF $1,818 FROM TEN DAYS AGO SOME STOPS AT $1,825 MAY BE TRIGGERED" AND WE MAY BE SET FOR A RALLY, SAID A TRADER WITH A U.S. OWNED BROKERAGE. "IF NOT, PRICES WILL LANGUISH AND PERHAPS GO LOWER, BUT IN THE MEANTIME COPPER'S HOLDING STEADY," HE ADDED. ALUMINUM IS TRADING IN A NARROW RANGE FALLING TO A LOW OF ABOUT $1,460 EARLY THURSDAY BUT MOVING UP TO $1,466 LATER IN THE DAY. WHILE FALLING LME WAREHOUSE STOCKS CONTINUE TO PLAY A "SUPPORTIVE" ROLE IN THE MARKET THEY ARE DOING LITTLE TO MOVE PRICES HIGHER AND TRADERS BELIEVE THE PRESENT APATHY WILL CONTINUE TO CHARACTERIZE THE MARKET FOR SOME TIME. 121539 MET mar 98
