Bullish Pennant · playing out now

DG just broke higher out of a bullish pennant — a brief, tidy pause inside a strong run. That's usually a breather before another push up.

As long as price stays above $114.4, the setup is intact — a daily close back below there is the cue to step away.

A natural first target sits near $138.6 — but moves like this often run further. The simple way to follow the rest is to stay with the 10-day average, and only step aside when a day closes below it.
