Red lines - bearish channel

Black lines - triangle pattern

In a previous analysis we warned traders of the triangle pattern in play. We mentioned that a break below the lower triangle boundary would accelerate the move lower towards our bearish target of 103. After just three sessions price has reached our target with potential to move lower still. Trend remains clearly bearish. Bulls will need to recapture at least 104.50-105 in order to hope for a trend change.
