The Friday rally has put the cross back to broadly flat on the week, erasing the bearish signals evident in the lower Thursday close. This plays into the recent bull flag formation and raises the possibility of a near-term test at key resistance of 142.86, the Jan 11 high. More broadly, however, the trend remains up. Clearance of this level highlights further a stronger bullish reversal.
