Learning from the Past Week: (click here for the post)
Unlucky at the seventh weekly candle - Bulls see red after 6 green candles in a row.
The Bears hold the Bulls away from beating the previous high - which we continue to see as a strong resistance.
The Oscillator continues to tick up.
Chikou Span (pink line) heads for a possible bearish cross of the Price line.




Looking Forward into the next Week:
The negative divergence, developing on the Oscillator - remains a concern, for the Bulls.
Keeping above the Tenkan Sen - Bulls, next look at, taking out the previous high - a strong resistance.
Avoiding a Bearish Chikou Span cross - is critical for Bulls going forward.
