The stockhas broken the very wide and falling short-term trend up. Firstly a slower falling rate is indicated, but this may very well be an early signal of a trend shift. On the reaction, there will be support on the roof of the current trend broken, which is $787.09, a level that may pose a second chance to hit a runner. According to fan-theory $999.00 will be the next possible trend-top level and thereby pose a resistance level that may not be broken at the first attempt.
