Mid-channel, rising on both timeframes
Price is between the two trend lines. Nothing to act on yet.
Read from the last 12 months of history we hold: rising, drifting +92% a year. The nearest ceiling overhead is US$158.03. What would overturn this: a close below US$140.55 — the floor of the channel being read — after which the trend, not the entry, is what was wrong.
