Technical Breakdown
Structural Shift: Following the completion of the 5-wave impulsive decline down to the support zone near 155.30, price initiated an ABC corrective structure upward.
Zone Flip: The key 157.80–158.00 resistance zone—which previously capped the ABC rally—has officially broken. Price has cleared this supply block and established a higher low directly on top of it.
Trend Confirmation: As long as price remains supported above the newly flipped resistance zone (holding above 157.50), the structural path of least resistance points toward 160.75.
