Monthly Chart
On the monthly chart we can see that after setting its $121.23 all time high (ATH) back in 2022 price fell dramatically all the way down under $70.
Since then, price has roared back to the upside before tiring out just below previous ATHs.
Historically, price has carved out a change control zone (long gray rectangle) roughly between $82 to $85.
Change control zones are one of the five price action tools we teach when charting anything. By definition, they are an area that represents where neither the bulls nor bears are in charge. Price can slash though the zone with seemingly reckless abandon, price can respect the top or bottom from outside it or within it. Or, price can trade aimlessly sideways within it. When price breaks away from the zone it can often get drawn back to it like a magnet. And in this case we see all of the above are true.
Weekly Chart
On the weekly chart we can see with much more clarity the fall from ATHs, and the relentless and wild price swings both up and down.
On the way down price consistently made lower highs and lower lows until it didn't...
Trading around $104 earlier today price may be attempting to break back to the upside or considering making another visit down towards the change control zone where it has made an astonishing 37 trips across it during the last 15 years.
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.
