Prices have managed to enter into a monthly ascending channel. It has been nearly 2 months when prices slipped out of the channel to retest a support at $858. Prices began to oscillate between $858 and $902.02 as bulls struggled to break the ceiling at the later price handle. The price action displayed mesmerizing price swings lasting for about 10 trading days at a time.

The medium to long-term outlook is strongly bullish as prices attempt to reclaim the trading region which dominated trading prior to the pandemic in March. In 1Q2020 prices were trading above $958, even reaching a peak of $1041.58. Bulls might seek to challenge this peak if prices manage to close solidly above the $1000,00 price handle.

The 200 Moving Average offered strong support at the $847 handle before the price too off to break the 60 Moving Average. Currently, the 200 MA is flat possibly due to the month long consolidation. Once it turns upwards this would be a good confirmation of a strong bullish momentum. In case of a slight price retracement at $890.89 the 60 MA will provide immediate support if the bullish direction is to remain sustainable.
