This upswing came after the multi-week hold of the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement at 43.88 and importantly the hold of multi week range lows in ST momentum (RSI).
“We note that while range lows in price have not been threatened, ST momentum (RSI) has broken the September / October range lows.”
“This implies that range lows in price are at risk. A daily close below 43.88 would now present a significant negative trigger, targeting a retest of multi-year lows below 40.00.”
