Resistance
28.75
Support
25.26
Support and resistance are estimated from the latest 60 sessions.
Strategy
  • Short-term:Monitor for a decisive breakout above $28.38 with volume or breakdown below $27.00; current consolidation suggests waiting for clearer direction rather than taking aggressive positions.
  • Mid-term:Maintain a Hold stance; consider adding on a confirmed breakout above $28.38 with bullish MACD crossover and volume, or reducing exposure on a break below $27.00 support.
  • Long-term:Await stronger trend confirmation; the low ADX indicates a choppy, non-trending market where long-term trend signals are not yet reliable. Base decisions on fundamental developments alongside technical breakout confirmation.
