Same as yesterday, nothing much has changed except the gap fill action yesterday. We’re back to were started 2 days ago. Symmetrical triangle is still in plan, pulled back to apex and moved forward. Wedge on daily is still shaping up. Range is 825-838. Anything above it bullish, anything below is bearish.

Looked like the prices finished strong at the closing at the high of the day into the weekend. It’s very bullish seeing Friday gapped, pulled back, and returned to top of gap and did not gap and continued upwards. Let’s see what happens today. Breakout from symmetrical triangle and confirmed when it pulled back to 829 (top of gap). Looking at 841 as measured target. 838 is resistance and 828 is support.

Bottom of the old unfilled gap, top of the trendline channel, and all targets have been met. Market is still bullish but any high failure will look for shorts. But if it breaches these resistance and confirm the breakouts, will go long.

A range has been building between 820 and 815, small contracting triangle. Nothing doing until it breaks out either way. Prices are near a parallel channel bottom. Will watch for reaction as it gets near it.

Same as Friday but looked like the rejection in late afternoon has put a possible double-top here. Will watch for a lower-low in lower timeframe for short.

The immediate trendline is broken and the rejection from the bottom gap at 819 is proof bears are there. Possible move back to 810, then cyan trendline? Will look for short opps in lower timeframe.

817 is the bottom of the old unfilled gap so watching what happens here how it handles this resistance. Market is short-term bullish but prices are at trendline channel so have to be wary here. Sidelines for now.
