J support and resistance levels

Price found a floor near $114.88 about 3 months ago and has been climbing since. On the weekly chart, the next ceiling overhead sits near $155.01 — still about 2.0% away.

  • Traders commonly watch $155.01 as a target (its 78.6% extension) — think of it as a sensible next stop, not a guarantee.
  • That ceiling is the first place the climb might pause — worth watching how price behaves as it gets there.
  • There's nothing to act on here — the spot to watch was the $114.88 floor about 3 months ago, when price bounced there, but price has already pulled higher. What's left is the climb playing out, not a fresh starting point.
