NOC Support and Resistance Levels

Price is being turned away at a ceiling near $542.77 and starting to slide. On the weekly chart, the next floor below sits near $429.10 — about 18% away.

Traders commonly watch $429.10 as a target (its 100% retracement) — think of it as a sensible next stop, not a guarantee.
That floor is the first place the slide might steady — worth watching how price behaves as it gets there.
There's nothing to act on here — the spot to watch was the $542.77 ceiling just now, when price was turned away there, but price has already pulled lower. What's left is the slide playing out, not a fresh starting point.
