The upper line of the amove-mentioned BB at $239.30 serves as a local resistance, which is followed by the critical barrier of $240.00. A sustainable move above this level is needed for the upside to gain traction and take the price to next recovery target at $254.00.
However, considering that the daily RSI stays flat, which means that strong directional movements are not likely during the nearest sessions.
On the downside, the initial support comes at psychological $230.00. The next barrier is created by the lower line of the above-said Bollinber Band at $227.30 and psychological $220.00. Once it is put of the way, the sell-off will be extended to the daily SMA50 at $218.50 and potentially to the critical barrier of $200.00. This support will slow down the bears, and attract new buyers to the market.
