The near-term uptrend has faded slightly, with prices topping out at the recent high of 152.62. The medium-term outlook is more positive after prices topped key resistance at the 152.53 Fib retracement (38.2% of the 2020 - 2021 sell-off). This strengthens the bullish outlook and shifts the near-term target higher, to the 153.02 high printed in late April last year. The 50.0% retracement is at 153.20. Initial support is seen at 151.47, a retracement where a break would strengthen a bearish case and signal a top.
