*COMMENTARY: The lack of topside follow through last week and hesitation ahead

of 2018 highs resulted in a sell-off that now sees the contract gaining traction

below the 21-DMA. Daily studies have room to move before O/S is an issue as

bears now focus on $2.0774-2.0955 where the 55-DMA is located. Bulls now look

for a close above the 21-DMA to gain breathing room and above $2.2467 to shift

focus back to 2018 highs.
