Looking ahead, if the buyers can close a daily candle above $2160, the first resistance lies at $2240 (weekly high). This is followed by $2300 (bearish .5 Fib), $2400, and then between $2500 (100-day MA) and $2565 (50-day MA).
On the other side, the first support lies at $2100. This is followed by $2036 (Feb 2021 highs), $2000, $1925 (200-day MA), and $1888 (.886 Fib).
The daily RSI is sitting on the midline, indicating that the bearish momentum has faded, and there is now indecision within the market about the next direction.
