A break of the bullish 50-HMA will prompt a huge selling towards the nine-month low of $ 42.35. While a break above the parallel 200HMA at $ 44.65 is required for a bullish setback. So far, the selling pressure has remained intact, while the prices remain below the plunging trend line with resistance at $ 44.50.

Going further, the bearish 21-DMA at $45.50 will continue to top the recovery efforts. The path of the smallest resistance remains to the downside amidst a lack of substantial demand area.
