The flat top ascending triangle is generally a bullish pattern and only the break of 12819 or 4h close above it, should provide a bullish continuation move. From the POC zone - 12745-12775, the price could bounce towards 12819. Breakout targets 12882 and 12917. Only a strong close above will target 13018 – Weekly H4 level.
