Good morning, traders. Price continues to press upward in spite of the overhead supply. Because this is happening within sideways movement there isn't much to say today other than the weekend is upon us and we usually see a strong move during that time, so traders should be keeping that in mind regardless of the direction of their trade.

The H1 chart shows an Adam and Eve double bottom pattern that forms the local TR. Price is printing a slightly ascending channel as it consolidates toward the $3900/$3940 resistance level. RSI continues to print a descending broadening wedge and MACD completed a bullish crossover earlier this morning and is pulling away from the signal line. The targets remain the same with the expectation of a move up to $4134, at least, based on the height of the double bottom pattern and local TR. Traders should be keeping an eye on volume and price action as price pushes through $3950 and $4000 to get a better idea of how price will react as it nears the target. As mentioned previously, the target has the potential to print a cup, followed by a handle, which would then have price targeting $4700+.

D1 chart shows two previous days of doji candles printing slightly higher followed by today's candle which is much more significantly bullish at this time. However, there is still more than 1/3 of the day left in the candle and we need to see the expected follow through. MACD is about to cross bullishly.

Be sure to refer to my previous analysis for other possible targets. Yesterday's D3 candle completed strongly bullish and engulfing the previous D3 candle while closing above the 21 EMA and pivot. The weekly candle is looking good at this time as well. Price continues to hold above the 50% level of the December move up, which is bullish. As we discussed a month ago, weekly price is finding itself consolidating between the 200 MA on the bottom and 200 EMA on the top. A close above $4100 would put price above that 200 EMA resistance level. A close below $3885, however, would put price below the 200 MA support level.

Every day, we have a choice to act positively or negatively, so if you get a chance, do something decent for someone today which could be as simple as sharing a nice word with them. You just might change their day, or even their life.

Comment:
The green line is the 200 MA, the red line is the 200 EMA, and the blue line is the 21 EMA. Will price push through the confluence of the 21 EMA, 200 EMA, and descending wedge resistance of the corrective cycle? Doing so should provide significant reason to believe the bottom is in and a new bull cycle is about to start/has already started.

Yesterday's D3 candle closed extremely well as expected and is painting a bullish picture at this time. But the current D3 candle still has 2.4 days left in it, so traders need to watch it.
