Wave ((iii)) began at the April 21, 2025 low and has embarked upon a steady climb higher. So far, prices have been supported by a trend line dating back to the wave (ii) low. This trend line can act like near-term support within the up trend.

Today’s rally is part of wave iii of (v) of ((iii)). This suggests still more upside is available and new all-time highs should continue to be seen over the coming days.
