HO has been extremely volatile this week with futures trading sharply lower off
Wednesday's high of $2.1195. Significantly, price also traded below support at
$2.0162, Dec 31 low and this effectively suggests a top has been put in place
for now with the technical outlook signalling scope for a deeper pullback
near-term. A break of yesterday's low at $1.9282 would open $1.9165, a
retracement level and below. Initial resistance is at $1.9722.
