   •  The up-move might continue to struggle near a precious strong support now turned resistance marked by an upward sloping trend-line, extending from lows touched in August 2017 through March/May 2018 lows.
   •  A convincing move needed to extend the rally towards an important moving averages confluence (100 & 200-day SMAs), currently near the 149.60-70 region.
