Prices bounced well off the Monday lows and are adding to the underlying uptrend early Friday. The current bull cycle remains intact after the recent breach of $72.72, the Jun 21 high. Last Wednesday’s move higher resulted in a break of key resistance at $75.70, the Jun 5 high as well as the 200-dma. This strengthens current bullish conditions and paves the way for a climb towards $78.03, a Fibonacci retracement point. Key short-term support has been defined at $66.96, the Jun 12 low. Initial support is at $72.31, the 20-day EMA.
