  • In so far, prices are settling at levels a little lower than $1700, yet selling pressure still seems to be holding momentum.
  • At this point, resistance still outweighs support for buy orders, although with a smaller margin that earlier.

With a pinch of strengthened support markets do have the potential for a recovery now that the sell off appears to be cooling down.
