Resistance:122.12122.32122.63123.17Support:121.80121.48121.17120.84

Bias:Continue to watch the 122.18 & 122.63 resistance levels – a reversal lower does seem close
Daily Bullish:Price continued to edge higher very slowly on Friday reaching 122.12. Perhaps this has provided a peak although there are no real bearish divergences. Thus we should continue to remain open to further gains – and while these are possible I note support at 121.80-85 which I’d prefer to hold. Support is also at 121.48. A move above 122.12 would probably move above 122.18 and to the 122.31-34 area where a correction is possible before a final move to 122.63-72. MT Bullish:The upside has extended though hasn’t yet met the 122.18 high. Indeed, the shorter term wave structure does seem to suggest a test of 122.63-72 but only above there would stop a larger reversal lower. (May 31st)Daily Bearish:I am still very cautious here as the weekly cycles are really pushing lower now and could force a sharp reversal at any time. It may mean we will see a push to 122.20 or 122.63 but we should also be aware of the key supports. First is at 121.80-85 and if this breaks it should force a sharper move lower – at least to 121.48 but probably 121.17. This could cause a pullback, but if we see this decline the chances are the major peak has been seen. MT Bearish:Reversal lower is imminent. Below 121.50-80 tends to increase the chances that a peak has been seen else look for a move to 122.20 minimum and possibly up to 122.63-72 before finding a peak. (June 4th)

ELLIOTT WAVE COMMENTS

1st June

A minor new high has been seen in a messy wave structure and this could be said to be sufficient to mark a final high. I still prefer price edging higher but don’t fight a break below the trend support at 121.60 and then the 120.84 corrective low…

4th June

Price reached the wave equality target at 122.12 on Friday and we are therefore on a warning of a possible reversal. Back below 121.80 would heighten this risk. If seen look for the first move lower to end between Wave –iv- at 120.84 and Wave –b- at 121.17. Any bounce from 121.80-85 should reach the 161.8% projection in Wave –c- at 120.63-72 which is also where a daily triangle target rests.
