*COMMENTARY: The bounce from the 55-DMA ($47.92) sees immediate pressure on
$49.84 as X17 flirts with the daily bear channel top ($49.60). Bulls look for a
close above $49.84 to confirm a break of the channel top and shift immediate
focus to $50.62-51.45 where the 200-DMA is located. Daily studies approaching
O/B and the Bollinger top are key concerns for bulls. Bears now need a close
below $48.96 to ease bullish pressure and shift focus to DMAs $47.92-48.24.
