*COMMENTARY: Failure to better Monday's high and the hesitation ahead of $64.96
combined with O/B studies are a concern for bulls and leave the pair looking a
little heavy. The close below $63.06 eases bullish pressure with bears now
looking for a close below $60.57 to shift focus back to $57.90-58.96 where the
100-DMA ($58.96) is noted. Bulls now need a close above $64.96 to regain the
upper hand and target $66.39-65 where 2018 highs are noted.
