Blue lines- wedge pattern

The combination of the wedge pattern and the bullish RSI divergence, warned bears on time to be cautious as the downtrend was showing weakening signs. Price has stopped making lower highs as price broke above $122.95. This break out is an important sign of strength. The chances of a major low have increased. Price is expected to move higher at least towards $140-$145 at the beginning of the wedge pattern. At $137-$138 we also find the first important Fibonacci resistance of the 38% retracement. So a minimum bounce towards that level is expected.
