Price then reclaimed the regression trend channel, signaling a structural shift.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, upside now hinges on the $1.065 resistance level. That zone previously capped recovery attempts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Acceptance above it would open a path toward the $2.00 upside projection marked on the chart. Conversely, rejection could trigger consolidation above reclaimed structure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Importantly, the rebound avoided deep pullbacks, which reflects strength.
