Channel Structure Signals Broader Pullback Risk
Downside continuation would confirm a failed breakout above the top of the rising channel and the 100-day moving average, now at $4,735. This confluence takes on added significance since the two indicators have been aligned recently. A rejection from one side of the channel indicates a possible decline to the lower boundary of the pattern, increasing the chance of a move toward at least the channel midpoint. Since the middle of the channel aligns near the 200-day average, it could act as a magnet, drawing price toward it.
Bullish Reclaim Would Invalidate Breakdown
Despite the potential for a decline, that possibility begins to fade on a rally above Tuesday’s lower high of $4,833. A sustained recovery of both the 100-day moving average and top channel boundary would be signs of renewed strength, shifting the outlook away from bearish continuation. In that case, the earlier breakdown may instead resolve as a failed bearish signal.
