Looking Forward into this Week:

Chikou Span above the Price line is now the bull ask (left).

Clearing the 61.8% and heading to the 127% is the next Bull need.
Senkou Span A&B, Bearish 'cross', with Resistance at 61.8% and a High wave candle (indecision) helps Bears.

Wrap: 

Bulls look to hold the large wave 'Higher Low' and  make a Smaller wave 'Higher High'.

Bears seek a fall to the Kumo bottom, after the Bearish Senkou Span A and B cross (right) with resistance at 61.8% ($53) holding last week.
