The reaction to the completed inverted head-and-shoulders pattern increased the bull’s confidence in the breakout on Tuesday. The price stepped above $17.00 on May 1. The building bullish momentum from the short-term support at $17.00 has formed an engulfing candlestick that has spiked above $17.50 and tested $18.00.
Technicals are strongly positive at press time with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) having entered the overbought zone. It is only a matter of time before the price steps above $18.00. Similarly, the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is sharply exploring the levels in the positive territory, which means that the trend is largely in the favor of the bulls.
