HO futures last week found resistance at $1.2896, Aug 25 high. Gains earlier in the week did probe resistance at 1.2868, Aug 11 high. A clear breach of $1.2868/96, would expose $1.3192, Aug 5 high and the key bull trigger. Clearance of this hurdle would confirm a resumption of the uptrend and open $1.3394, a retracement level. Key support to watch is at $1.2103, Aug 21 low. A break would be bearish.
