if long, min upside could be the 20week ema at 147.75...horizontal across closes at 147.65 looks interesting risk to what? today's gap did not fill, so call today's low min risk to 145.33 above 1430 to 1434 continues to be the bullish support signal, so risk to that area is possible..who knows? I am short again as posted at my TT blog last 15minutes

seems like a great move point and figure LT chart will give a buy signal at 1.470, so of course reaching 1.470 will be tough and also the falling trendline from the top is bound to be good resistance at least 30 points down is what i am looking for 1.400-1.410 could also be hit - that area is support on the point and figure LT chart

I think its little early for indices but maybe not for OIH

I think its going to 162 in a few days

Interesting Breakout, Retest, Breakout Success... Altho it is only a minor move it has beauty.
