Scenarios for the week
Upside: a daily close above last week’s high at $2,779 would put the 30-day high at $2,808 in focus.
Downside: losing last week’s low at $2,651 would expose 30-day support around $2,358.
With a daily ATR of about $72.52, a stop placed one ATR away from entry is roughly 2.7% — use the position size calculator to size trades around that distance.
