When it comes out of the top of the box, it's a buy, with a stop or short at the bottom of the box.

P.S. Sometimes drawing the box (easy in retrospect) takes a lot of patience in real time. :rolleyes:

Good luck and good trading.

My peak cycle thoughts on PMs and the USD. A very important juncture is approaching either way.
