The bias might be toward the upside, as a five-wave cycle from $98.97 might be ending, as the fifth wave seems to have completed around $70.53. The bullish divergence on the hourly RSI suggests a completion as well.

A break above $72.57 may led to a gain into the $73.20-$74.14 range, while a break below $71.25 could be followed by a drop into the $69.68-$70.53 range.

On the daily chart, the market has stabilized around a support at $69.98. The stabilization signals a bounce toward $74.52 or $77.32.

The daily RSI formed bullish divergence as well, suggesting an exhaustion of the downtrend. The downtrend might be slowly reversing.
