This resistance is established on the 4-hour chart via the convergence of MA 50 and the upper triangular line of the triangle structure. Whenever it’s breached, the upside is likely to gain momentum to $140.00 psychological level as the next emphasis while the next obstacle appears at $155.00, the highest level since 20th March.

A sustained shift underneath this level may increase the bearish pressure and approach the next low level at $115.00 probably.
