US100 (D1)
The price continues to stay above the lower boundary of the medium-term upward trend, but the market clearly lacks the strength to return closer to the middle of the channel. This may lead to a potential breakout downwards. A newly formed short-term trend (purple) can also be observed, which will serve as another resistance to further price increases in the coming days. The nearest support is the already mentioned upward trend line and the EMA25 average. The first strong resistance for the price will be the zone starting at the level of 28,340 dollars.
