“Rallies will find initial resistance at 129.57/66 (55 and 200-day ma) ahead of the 130.10 resistance line.”

“The 130.55/74 July and September highs are likely to act as tough overhead resistance and we would allow for this latter zone to cap the rally.”

“Directly below lies the 2020-2021 support line at 127.39. A close below here would introduce scope to the 200-week ma at 125.39.”
