Key Quotes

“Last week it was capped by the 50% retracement at 98.58 but last week’s rise looks directional. The six month resistance line at 99.72 is now being targeted. While a challenge of the top of the recent range at 99.72/100.62 is plausible we look for this to hold.”

“Potential dips should find minor support around the 97.50 late September low. Further down the 200 day moving average guards at 96.94 the seven month support line at 95.72.”
