Here we can see the multi-week correction (pullback), followed by an initial “bounce” attempt. This bounce reached back up slightly above its 50-day moving average and up to its 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level ($102.48). This level will serve as important resistance. Breaking above this level would be bullish.
