HO stalled last week at $1.7183 on Feb 20 and has edged lower again so far
today. The failure at $1.7183 also marks a failure at the 23.6% retracement of
the Jan 8 - Feb 4 decline at $1.6980. For now, the move lower is being viewed as
a correction. The next support lies at $1.6100, Feb 10 low. An ability to hold
above this level would resume attention of gains and the bull trigger at
$1.7183. A break lower though would expose key support at $1.5684.
