Hugely bullish of late with some pullbacks. On the daily chart it's broken out of the trend, with the RSI not showing any sign of a pullback from that just yet. On the intraday charts, there was, as usually periods of strong pullback, but these were extended later into strong bullish runs.

Current concensus, is on of cautious optimism to further gains. Look for a pullback down towards the top end of that trend line. Currently with such strong bull moves, there is no current strong support being shown, other than the trend line. So one of the things we are looking for is where that support may rest. The RSI is not at any point of exhaustion, so we could expect some further gains before a pull back. For now, it certainly appears very clear that the trend has now been broken and further gains are on the way for a period of rest from finding support.
