Bullish Signals:
- The earliest bullish signal was when price broke above the moving averages as well as the falling resistance by February 2019. Even though the price high of $135.60 was still holding, price managed to show respect to the broken resistance factors as support, which was a major sign that bulls were taking over.
- Then, the break above $135.60 was key in establishing higher highs.
- Then, the RSI pushed above 70, which signaled initiation of bullish momentum.
- In April, as we mentioned above, price turned the $135.60 resistance into support.
- Finally, the market provided the latest bullish signal last week.
- CB retreated from around $145, but found support around $141.30, right around the previous resistance.
- For CB in 2019, resistance turning into support has been a strong signal that bulls are still in charge.
