Monthly Chart
On the monthly chart we can see that after setting its $370.83 all time high (ATH) just a few short months ago price fell dramatically over the next several weeks all the way down under $270 so far this month.
After already falling through many potential support levels price is in search of a definitive bottom.
Weekly Chart
On the weekly chart we can see with much more clarity the fall from ATHs, and the relentless selling pressure. The bulls seemingly have disappeared...
On the way down price crossed several potential support levels.
Closing at $265.59 today price may be attempting to reach its next potential support zone in the $240-$245 area.
While it's not the last chance for the bulls there's a potential "demand zone" resting in that area.
A demand zone is another one of the five price action tools we teach. It's a price area on a chart where previously there was a high demand for the underlying asset based on historical price action in and around the same area where buyers could be prepared to purchase at different levels within the zone. A demand zone is present within the light gray rectangle and has a high buying potential.
It goes without saying though, the only guarantee in the markets is that price cycles. It cycles up and it cycles down across all time frames and all charts and rarely, if ever, moves in a straight line.
Only time will tell for sure what price will do next...
We've layered in traditional Fibonacci levels as well as support/resistance and trend to help identify potential price levels of interest and/or future price targets.
Armed with precision oriented charts like these both traders and investors can formulate their respective plans.
