“Given the very dense overhead resistance, namely the 200 week moving average at 109.81 and the 2015-2019 downtrend line at 110.46, we will assume that the cross has topped for now.”

“Failure at 107.89 would probably trigger losses to the 106.48 October low. Failure at 106.48 would target the106.00 mark.”

“On a weekly chart close above the 2015-2019 downtrend line.”
